Being pushed to limit and not crumbling is kind've a huge trait for a good fighter.I don't think Khamzat is a good fighter. Whenever he gets pushed to the limit, he barely squeezes it out.
And he's like 30.
When Jones was his age, he was already over the hill.
He got dominated in the first 10-08. Rounds 2 & 3 Khamzat draw him with a broken hand and fewer. Clear 30-28. However MMA doesn't award draw rounds. I guess it's 29-27 than.If that was a 5 round fight Usman would have stopped him no doubt about it.
Shavkat and Garry showed me nothing that makes me believe they would run through the current version of Usman even if he is on the down slide.He got dominated in the first 10-08.

He did well and at MW. Still he is washed. His age and the state of his body, his knees are used up, Leon KOd him. He is done at this point in the top 3.
It's normal he is expired at 37 or whatever his age is.
I don't think he won, I think it was 28-28. 10-8 R1 for Khamzat, R2+R3 for Usman = 28-28 drawUsman is seriously underrated people are acting as if he is washed up. He won the Khamzat fight to many people and look what Khamzat did to Whitaker and others.

Leon was just his kryptonite precision striker with good enough grappling to keep him off.
For real too many people call Khamzat Vs Usman a robberyThere is no possible way for Usman to have won that fight unless you inexplicably gave Khamzat a 10-9 for round 1 after Usman was controlled for 90% of the round, was out struck 61-5, and was almost finished with a RNC.
Scoring it 28-28 is reasonable and so is 29-27 Khamzat. Those are the only 2 possible scores and anything else should be ignored.
Sure but I don't see what that does for Usman. The 1st round was EASILY the most significant part of the fight and I think Usman deserves a lot of credit for surviving it but IMO he gets too much credit for his performance in the 3rd round. Burns survived Khamzat too and you don't hear anyone hyping him to the moon now.To lose for 10-8 in first round by Khamzat is gonna to become normal. He did It with Whittaker and is gonna to do It with Dricus/Strickland
He's not washed up but we have already seen the best Marty from Nebraska. He's still great but he's slipped a little. He lost to Khamzat. If it was 5 rounds he would've won. It was 3 rounds so he lost.Usman is seriously underrated people are acting as if he is washed up. He won the Khamzat fight to many people and look what Khamzat did to Whitaker and others.

It's a comically terrible take. I assume they're just trolling. No way does anyone with functioning eyes thinks khamzat isn't goodWhat a bad take
Usman will be about 38 the next time he fights. He's on a 3 fight losing streak and hasn't fought in over a year. I'm sorry to be the one to break it to you but father time is undefeated.Usman showed the world news things in his last fight
Personally I'm putting Usman ahead of Hughes ( the two wins over Colby alone seals the deal for me ) But I can respect why you put Hughes second.Top 3 Welter Weight of All Time
1. GSP
2. Hughes
3. Usman
