[@lumberdumperslamlets-go1179]

[@wynsonrao5177]

​@davidng8870 O'malley just showed that he doesn't deal well with constant pressure. He excels against ploddy walkdown fighters with poor footwork, and fighters overcommitting with strikes.

Khamzat is just aura... you said it yourself. The gamepolan should be survive and run for one round and then bring it.. same way others just lay and pray.. in UFC its ok to run and run for 5 minutes.. its within the rules. Easy gameplan is .. just run away for 5 minutes. frustrate him.. frustrate the crowd.. expose him for just a grappler... then bring it.

You love that jab and teep machine? 🤡

[@mylesmurphy5716]

dude i knew khamat would win based off of the kamaru fight man i just didnt see rob surviving the way kamaru did.

[@leo-shun]

I've seen enough. Book Topuria vs Pereira.

[@Sergio-ly7bv]

Why not Topuria and Pereira Vs Mario Bautista in a handicap match

[@drsquishybelly806]

@@Sergio-ly7bvI like this idea

[@gvinz797]

Cheers Lucas you know ball

[@je2free]

Believing DDP has a better chance of beating Chimaev more than Chimaev does against DDP is just DELUSIONAL. Even Rob was able to take DDP down, imagine what would Khamzat do to him.

[@NewDarkKnight]

DDP is bulky like Burns and Usman tho. Seems like it's hard for khazmat to sub bulky fighters.

[@JesseWelds]

Khamzat will look like a kid next to ddp he needs to go down to welterweight.

[@gomer691]

​@@NewDarkKnightnah khamzat couldn't submit Burns and Kamaru because they are just too good at defensive grappling, not because they are bulky.

[@DJ-dh3oe]

It's not crazy, all DDP has to do is survive the first round. And he's bigger stronger and has better BJJ than Rob or Usman so has a good chance of doing that

[@mayoayo001]

Ilia is a fighter ufc never seen before. Boxing style wise.

[@keion_arknights]

15:28 Actually Max is on a 3 fight win streak: Allen, Zombie, Gaethje 🤓

Max looked so good in there. Ilia is just a totally new type of fighter that we’ve never seen before.

yeah the fact that he KO'd Max Holloway with his non-power hand is fucking crazy

[@LXNider]

Lucas we gotta put Josh Emmet and his big meaty hooks on the goatlist when beats either max or volk

[@Th3derekfisherrr]

And Sean omally wanted to fight topuria ☠️☠️☠️

[@buddybrick]

I mean omally is faster and more accurate than max. And he has better defence of bw. May have been a good fight

[@bjh1202]

i aint gonna lie at times in the fight ilia looked slightly wild and was kinda throwing big meaty hooks cos he couldnt get in range, still beating a good version of max and volk is an insane start to your title reign

[@leo-shun]

4:50 the glaze is crazy. Topuria being a top 10 of all time with 1 title defense ?

Islam would destroy Illia. Islam was not at his best vs Volk the first time and destroyed Volk the second time. Islam is way too big for Illia.

[@redrottenmanguyperson9954]

Theres a good chance illia can ko islam, but islam is way too big and wide for ilia. Islam takes him down and tkos him in the 1st, same with tsarukyan icl

I guess I'm the only one that was happy with the main event result.

[@SonnyUFC]

I painted a picture of this fight in my head, for months I thought Max would have the easiest “hardest fight of his career” Then I started to see things from Topuria’s perspective and I STILL TOOK MAX so it was really really tough to see Max getting flatlined like that I never saw that coming in a million years, huge respect to Topuria man All that shit talk, and he backed it up with a knockout before the championship rounds
