[@shashankashishsingh188]

@@peterbadal3028 nobody gives a fuck about Neil Magny in 2022. The difference is also that Burns actually has a decent chance to stop the Khamzat hype. Khamzat has solid wrestling but what about his chin? His chin hasn't been tested yet and Burns can crack. If he can take some shots and finish him, i would say he is legit. But Gilbert also has a sus chin and Khamzat hasn't beat any high level BJJ guy, so it's that perfect fight where anything can happen.

This is insane, love and appreciate this work, big up champ ❤👍

[@goldmindsetmma6242]

Man is putting himself in the best position to win. Hope the fight is a war it’d be dope to khamzat get a little tested

[@jasone42683]

Watch out for the strikes. All the training means nothing with that one shot. Take cumshot very seriously and don't give into his best shots, don't let him set it up. Watch out for that strike.

[@Romstine]

That's when you see this is a team effort... You can't possibly push yourself like that alone! Credits to Burns and Burns' team. I hope the dedication will pay off. I have nothing against Borz but I really hope for Burns to get another chance against Usman, and to be champ at least once before he retires...

[@manomantax]

Chimaev can though

[@coolestafrican1444]

Usman must retire first! 😆

[@04mzwach]

I worry for Burns that he peaked at the wrong time. I think Usman and Izzy are rooting for Burns for a reason. They must know Chimaev is threatening their reigns.

[@miguelinoz]

@@04mzwach exactly, they are hoping that the hype train derails before it hits them

[@MMAknowerofALL]

@@miguelinoz This sucks to watch either lose. I’d rather Khamzat win which he will I want him to win just to see him fight Izzy in the future hopefully lol

[@mustafakhan940]

I love how Gilbert said whatever happens, it's going to be a war. A very refreshing take for an established elite fighter taking on a hyped newcomer, as they usually keep saying they are going to smoke them cos of how inexperienced or cocky they are, but you can clearly see Burns keeps it real 100% of the time.

[@tontonbonnet7397]

That kind of attitude is what made Adesanya’s early opponents look horrible… calling him “skinny hyper train” and getting slept

[@jacquesdegauthier]

There's a very good chance there won't be a war and that Burns ends up like GM3. Burns seems to be focused on wrestling and conditioning but khamzat will be looking at finishing the fight on the feet. If he knocked out cold a MW veteran that had never been ko'd unconscious before in 44 fights, he could definitely do it to a guy that has been KO'd before at LW

[@craigelliott9120]

so what if he gets destroyed? what does that mean Chimaev is? Burns is a beast but he's going to have to wrestle. once Chimaev gets ahold of burns he's going to ground and pound him. Respect to burns but I think he's going to get beat pretty easily in my opinion. Only 4 days and we'll see.if I was usman I'd be a little worried borz is a whole different breed.

Just because you lose under some rule guideline, doesn't mean you lose in real life. I'm sure he learns so much about himself throughout every journey. Congrats on a hell of a fight and hopefully he finds peace in the gift of what life is all about.
