Khamzat Chimaev makes a statement at UFC 308, should he fight DDP next for the belt? | UFC Post Show

[@ronniepickering4211]

Khamzat took Robert into the deep waters! Amazing ground game. The next generation on full display

[@HernandoCortezzz]

Triple champ alhamdullilah

[@nikobellic9004]

Borz just run through Robert like he was nothing. Khamzat leveled up it seems too. It look like 3 man were fighting Robert in their, thats how superhuman khamzat's strength and explosivity is. There is a reason why Dagestani and chechen fighters are the most avoided fighters in the ufc, because they are just next level scary, they are like the final bosses in video games.

[@HaroldBolt]

Shame he can only fight in the desert where you don’t have to make weight.

[@mangalutv2928]

im a new fan, why didnt whittaker kick him in the head when khamzat went for the dive? seems like a no brainer

[@ucef9945]

@@mangalutv2928 It's not easy to react that fast since Khamzat doesn't shoot slowly and he doesn't show his intentions before he shoots..Also if you lift your leg to kick him the takedown becomes ten times easier and the kick isn't guaranteed to land or do much damage. When fighters train takedown defense the first thing they have to do is to try and keep both feet grounded and a kick goes against that principle. since you mentioned you are a new fan..Just for information it's illegal to kick a grounded fighter, meaning a fighter who has his hand on the ground, but in this case Khamzat was not entirely grounded so it was fair to kick him.

u forget Kevin Holland. lol

[@tarci2994]

I was always saying Khamzat doesnt have bad cardio, he just does bad pacing on purpose in my opinion sometimes, prob due to overconfidence. The grappling he did vs Whittaker, Li, and Holland is how he should always fight explode on takedown but be calm when succed in it and drain the opponents energy like Khabib.

[@Cris-dm1nt]

Perhaps this is one of the first times he is fully healthy and healed for a fight in a while. If he maintains his health and can make championship weight he'll probably be a 2 divison champ, and maybe the prophesized 3 divison champ.

[@windytv7511]

@@Cris-dm1ntwhat 3 division?

[@Mr-E.]

@@Cris-dm1nt Yes this time he trained at one of the highest mountains in Europe in Ozon village where his red blood cell count could build up for better cardio. He also had specialists for his cardio, nutrition, strength and conditioning, etc. This time he also paced himself better in training with more recovery time so he wouldn't get sick or drop his immunity too much. If this was a stand up fight, he may have shown much better cardio improvements based on all of this.
