News Zabit Not Interested In Fighting Korean Zombie, Will Wait For Title Shot. *New Update/Translations*

[LetThemBleed]

I think it’s reasonable, Zabit is close to a title shot and KZ looked like a complete can against someone who hasn’t fought in years.

Depends on your definition of reasonable. If Zabit's happy to wait until the end of 2021, potentially even into the start of 2022 for a title shot and give away 2 years of his prime without fighting then sure definitely it's reasonable, otherwise it's lunacy as the winner of kattar max even if it's kattar will get the next title shot against volk who will be too good for ortega. Zabit if sticking to this strategy will not be fighting for again before the end of next year at earliest, if he really wants to use the woodley strategy good luck to him.

He said he wants a title eliminator, not a title shot. I agree with him that a fight with KZ won’t get him a shot, KZ just looked like he didn’t belong in the cage in his last fight.

Could be waiting a while, if Ortega gets another solid win he'll jump over Zabit.

gone are the days when mma warriors accept challenges for the sheer battle-fever of fights. oh well.. i guess that spells the difference between mma warriors of old and today's mma athletes.

A big part of that is the shit ass athletic commissions. They've nearly ruined MMA in the US with all their bullshit rules and regulations. Fuck them.

He's not fought for over a year now, appreciate that's not his fault but as we start to get well into next year I imagine Dana's appetite to make that fight will dwindle as the other guys who are currently matched up may be coming off recent, more exciting wins. Sitting out during your prime just to wait for a title shot isn't a good look. Although fighters are probably looking at Ferguson's example and thinking fuck that hahaha.

See my other post about he and his camp stupidly waiting on Yair instead of calling out Max. A Max win would have clearly made him next in line for a shot. Instead he and his camp chose to wait according to them 5 times for Yair.

Looks like a bad case of google translate... Weird that a sports website would use an unedited google translate translation and not even try to alter it to make some kind of sense

Buddy, I only trust you as the russian-english translator sherdogger guy. Other posters not on your level brother
