Nah the weight miss wasn't on purpose. Khamzat's just a massive guy. But the UFC definitely knew he was going to miss weight so they had him start beef with Holland, knowing Khamzat could make the 180 catchweight but not 171. The card also wasn't selling well so infusing a little drama didn't hurt

[@gigachadrick7723]

@@benlewis5312 I believe Khamzat said that the reason he missed weight was because he thought the PPV date was later than he anticipated and had already bulked up a few of pounds of muscle, and because muscle is harder to cut than fat, and water. It made his weight cut harder and more dangerous which is why the doctor told him to stop. He's made 170 on short notice before so I don't think that's an issue.

One thing for sure is that we can see Khamzat is able to correct mistakes after each fight which makes him MUCH more dangerous, He learned that it’s not smart for him to bang with strikers but to use his great wrestling which can definitely get him a title in the future if he fights smart just like we saw with khabib.

[@swed8506]

Na we still haven't seen if he improved yet. If he fought Kevin before Burns, he would've done the exact same thing. The only reason why he didn't wrestle Burns is because he couldn't. Burns bjj skills negated his wrestling so they stood up the whole fight. We still haven't seen if Khamzat has an improved gas tank or patience. This fight was too easy

And all these simple minded people talking crap about Khamzat should be talking crap to the UFC for allowing the Dias brothers to continue the ignorance of the gangster crap for so long and allowing them to bring 50 goons to every fight as a intimidation factor for every fighter that they went up against!! This is not reality tv this is the fight game with professionals not thugs!!

I believe Khamzat said that the reason he missed weight was because he thought the PPV date was later than he anticipated and had already bulked up a few of pounds of muscle, and because muscle is harder to cut than fat, and water. It made his weight cut harder and more dangerous which is why the doctor told him to stop. He's made 170 on short notice before so I don't think that's an issue.
