Media Will HW Iranian Khamzat turn Aspinall into the next DDP?

Yes but Latino is distinct from Spanish, they're not literally called the same thing. Like Joel Alvarez is Spanish and Yoel is Latino. But somehow in the case of Arabs, the same term is used without distinction. It would be like if Yoel was called a Cuban Spaniard/Iberian or something the way most Algerians are called Arabs because they speak the language and adopted the religion of Arabs the way Yoel speaks Spanish and is Catholic. However as we discussed, the term Latino is used to differentiate the distinct culture and history of Yoel vs Spaniards.
In NYC, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Mexicans are called Spanish, but they don't have Spaniards
If you go to the Gulf nations, they will distinguish Arabs (people from Arab-speaking countries) from Ethnic Arabs (people from the Arab Peninsula who look local)
BTW it has nothing to do with the religion, Copts are Arabs and have never been Muslims throughout history. I guess it's the same for neighbouring countries

Haha I grew up in NY as a young kid and I do remember Puerto Ricans being referred to as Spanish, but this is all still different from what I understand to be academic distinctions.

Yes true you can have Christian Arabs, Latino Jews, etc.
 
This pic is the stuff of Tom's nightmares.

Gane, being a highly intelligent fighter, read my thread and took the appropriate action to bring this man in.

Pouya just steamrolled his stiffest competition yet in PFL, by the way. His striking is coming along at an incredible rate and he has legit natural KO power.

By the way, just so you get a sense of how good his grappling is, the guy he beat in straight grappling and then knocked out in MMA is a former Olympic HW wrestler.

He needs more than good wrestling to beat Aspinall. Black Beast knocks the beard of this guy.
 
I'm not sure I can even get myself to reply to their incredibly dense comments.
Iran national wrestler Pouya Rahmani appears to be absolutely unstoppable, it's just a matter of if the UFC wants to protect its British Nancy boy striker.
I'm not sure you got room to talk

UFC protecting Tom from a random 4-0 guy.

My opinion is this thread should go to the lightweights sub forum.
 
my question about HW prospects is ALWAYS, has he been chin checked yet? because skills are good and all but having a good chin is pretty much a must have for the HW division. we have to check dis moment, please brather

Copts are Arabs in the same way indigenous Americans are European.
 
There is only 1 khamzat. The fact that you need to label this Iraian fighter as the Iranian version of a better fighter inherently means he isn't as good. Otherwise he would be his own name and people would know.

I'm 100% sure that if TS never spoke again, it would be the smartest thing he's ever said.

Yeah but we're talking about the UFC heavyweight division.

Honestly we're on Sherdog, so the masses thinking I'm dumb means the opposite. Case in point is the first reply to this thread, possibly the worst, least logical thought ever put onto the Internet, and 26 other non sentient beings agreed with it. QED vato.

Who gives a shit about "the masses"?

I speak for myself. You're either an absolute idiot (honestly, being real, unlikely despite the fact I call you one often and likely will again) or too blinded by your own bias to not allow it to override your common sense on certain topics (EXTREMELY likely).
