Whittaker's First Thoughts On Khamzat
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- Former Middleweight champion Robert Whittaker got a bounce back win against Darren Till in a main event on UFC Fight Island. But Whittaker wasn't the only fighter in the spotlight after a great performance. Khamzat Chimaev was becoming a rising star after two victories in only ten days in July 2020. Whittaker was asked his opinion on Chimaev's recent performances and he was impressed. Robert even joked about hoping Chimaev would stay at Welterweight so he could chase the Middleweight title without worry. #khamzatchimaev #robertwhittaker #shorts #ufc
4 years past, Rob’s still on the top 3 middleweight spot. Real G
Robs awesome.
rob is a real challenge for khamzat than usman and burns. burns is good, but not that good, even belal can beat him, if khamzat beating him is nothing special, while usman is a welterweight, beating him at 185 with only 2 weeks notice is not what makes khamzat worthy for challenge the middleweight champions, while Rob is at least the top 5 middleweight of all time, if Khamzat can beat him in a finish, then he deserves to be a challenger for the middleweight championship, but if Khamzat loses to Rob, then he will spend his career as an ordinary fighter
@@KAlM861I don’t think losing to Whittaker is a bad thing. Guy is an absolute monster. I’d be worried for khamzat if he doesn’t finish him inside of 2 rounds. I’d assume rob would takeover after that. Well see, khamzats fights against Gilbert and usman were impressive to me. Those are world class fighters. It’s pretty disingenuous to bring up the belal burns fight without talking about burns injury. He shouldn’t have been fighting that night
@@Joes35 it's a bad thing if khamzat still wants to be middleweight champions, i mean, rob is a monster, but he is a stepping stone if someone wants to become middleweight champion like izzy and ddp did, if khamzat can't beat him, he won't be considered anymore
but will never be champion again he has no shot against Dricus Dricus could literally arm throw him I have never seen this in mens MMA ever, only im WMMA lol hes way too strong and powerful for Rob you could see Dricus didnt even really respect Robs shots, the difference in reaction when they hit each other was insane. Man I really like Rob its sad that he has pillow hands same as Max Holloway when has Rob finished a fight?
Lol Im almost sounding like a hater but I actually love Rob and like Max but if they actually had some good power they would be way different fighters
Huge huge fan of Dricus aswell tho, never a boring fight, 19 finishes in 21 wins, is 21-2, without Dricus the Strickland fight would have been boring af thats why the crowd even started cheering DDP in ROUND 4 Strickland fights boring af most of his new fans dont even know it cause he makes it up with his personality same as Colby
Dricus brought the fight and I love the drunken style lmao it actually works 7-0 in the UFC and 21-2 only turned 30 2 months ago
Very honest and polite answer. That is why Khamzat respects Robert.
Yes brather ❤
Dude nobody cares about khamzat anymore he gotta fix his tummy problems.
I simply like Whitaker. Such a down to earth guy. Don’t care if he lose or wins
+ a gamer
Yeah no doubt. You have to respect his humility, honesty, and hilarity 😂🤣
If it's 3 rounds- Khamzat
If its 5 rounds- Whittaker
(Edit: Welp, Khamzat is out of the fight)
It's a main event so 5 rounds
Its main event you doughnut
Khamzat finishes Rob. Rob decisions Khamzat
thats the ONLY two outcomes
@@A1Gz_ nah Whitaker can also ko Khamzat especially in the later rounds.
Burns rocked Khamzat and i think Whitaker's high kick is more dangerous than anything Burns can throw.
He's also much bigger than Usman and Burns.
Walk around weight is 215-220
If this if that 😂
Rob is definitely a Special one. Very hard to find warriors like him nowadays
Love Rob. I think he’s a great guy
Whittaker is a great example of how you should be. Be humble. Be honest. Try to be the best at what you do. This dude is a role model.. no Barkley or diddy!
True, I think trying to be the best he can be took him there. He says he was a mess when he was younger. He developed his fighting and personality style in the best way
Dedication to staying on weight aged horribly
Only missed once.
Clowns be saying this shit when missed weight once, but silent about all the other fighters who missed multiple times 😅
@@NeverCriticizeChosenPeopleby 8 fucking pounds, dude didn’t even try. Let his ego go crazy fights once a year now dude could’ve been double champ already if he fought often
@@JoshNicotineyou do realize covid, ramadan, and his connection with Kadyrov limits when and where he can fight, right?
@@Jonathan-os5eo dude fought twice in two weeks at one point don’t make excuses for him. And yeah relationships with a corrupt dictator will do that
Khamzat didn't want to fight Rob. Justin didn't want to fight Max. But they'll have to do that as a part of the sport
you sound dumb lmao. khamzat famous line is literally “i’ll smesh anybody!”
Unforgiving sport🔥🫠
Nick didn't want to fight BJ
I didn't want to fight any of them. I still don't. But I also didn't
He’s the best, put this man in the commentary booth
What a great humble man..
I love islam and khamzat both a fighters and also as brothers in islam , but if they were to loose against volk and whitaker i wold not be sad at all , both guys are awsome fighter and awsome people
Both Australian ❤
Rob such a good lad
Well. That whenever it happens is next month. As so much has changed in 4 years. Because both guys are fighting each other for a shot at the middleweight title next month.
Much better fight than khamzat vs costa, and actually a bit tougher, and it would really determine the n#1 contender very clearly
Rob Whittaker is the most down-to-earth fighter I have ever listened to
He never talks shit
Well Alex Periera put a stop to the khazmat hype train!😂 Alex fighting 3-4 times a year khazmat hardly ever gets in the octagon 😂
Kyamzat will shred Whitaker.. the Borz has skills on another level. Love the Borz.
Bo will beat another unranked guy and dana will give him some kind of belt.
This Khamzat was different
Khamzat will have more birthday parties before he has a title fight.
Robs always been a fuckin G from day one fights anyone they put in front of him and always gives 110% dude definitely is a BMF in every sense of the word even though outside the cage he’s a puppy dog 😂
Man talking about being double champ before even get close to his first title shot 🤦♂️
Rob v Chimaev just depends on Rob's takedown defence against Chimaev's chain wrestling.
Rob's striking is much better than Chimaev tbf. Chimaev showed poor striking defence when he fought Usman and Burns.
I haven't watched much of Rob but people say he's a damn good wrestler
Now khamzat fights like once a year
I'll worry about it when it happens.
Oh boy, it's happening now.
Love this guy.... Whitaker is so honest and funny.❤😂
Khamzat can't even make it to a fight more than once anually.
This fight is late june.
Next November for title fight sounds about right.
I hope i dont die of old age.
You’ll be alright Charlie
Put on that voice hid lips aint yeah
Dana will let Bo fight khamzat after khamzat turns 42. We will have to hear his shit until then.
That laugh though 😅 that’s the Aussie way of calling BS on something
"I smesh everybody, I kill everybody, I'm the King, I'm the Champ here" - Khamzat "Borz" Chimaev" 🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪
its a 5 rounder Rob only needs to survive round 1 and 2 minutes of ROUND 2 and it will be a schooling by Rob Khamzat is not championship material and will never be champ
tbh Khamzat is lucky that he got Rob cause we saw how easily Dricus took Rob down, Rob is one of the smallest 185ers Dricus could literally arm throw him I have never seen this in mens MMA ever, only im WMMA lol hes way too strong and powerful for Rob and Dricus would also be way too heavy and strong for Khamzat + he has insane grappling himself and insane strength Dricus would smoke Khamzat bad I was hoping for Khamzat Cannonier cause thats a real heavy 185er who would have smoked Khamzat easily aswell that aint no 170 pounder no more which Khamzat can weight bully lol + Khamzat has literally 0 gas tank cardia its insaneeee he is a 1 round fighter how should this guy become champ
@@FinnMMACrybaby Strickland can fight Canonier in December 😂😂😂
Khamzat has SMASHED all your favorite fighters u casual.
#Undefeated
@@ppcbernier9945like who?
@@ppcbernier9945 he hasnt lol none of them are my favorite casual lmao Usman fight was a clear draw on 7 days notice lmao and barely won against a former LW common the hype train is dead for a long time now he wont be champ cause of his 1 round cardio and you know it
@@FinnMMAKhamzat doesn’t have horrible cardio he just fights at an insane pace no one can keep up with for long. He can easily go 5 rounds with Rob but he definitely won’t look like the same killer he was hyped up to be if he paces himself.
“So would you be open to facing him?”
“He’s a welterweight and I hope he stays there”
Best way to compliment someone lol that would’ve been my answer😂
This was an old clip when Khamzat looked supernatural.
But after Burns and Usman i don't think Whitaker will lose as Khamzat slows down in 2 rounds.
Khamzat beat them both. Sit tf down u casual.
Crybaby Strickland can fight Canonier in December 😂
Crybaby Strickland doesn't deserve a title shot for a couple years.
4 years later. Chimaev hasn't figured out the championship recipe. Jumping all over the place
Maybe a good thing Khamzat pulled out, Rob went out to reap tonight, Khamzat better think through his approach if theres a future fight.
See wen fighters like rob lose we get sad and still root for him. Wen fighters like mcgregor lose we laugh and feel warm and fuzzy.
Cumshot the hype train will be destroyed quite easily in the middleweight division. Burns almost destroyed him
Also he lost both the burns fight and usman he did not win either of those fights. I know on the judges score cards he did but in no way did he actually deserve to get his hand raised. Rob by round 4 head kick
Who cares ... Dana will give him a couple more years off after this fight.
Two wins in 10 days. So Dana books him three fights the next 5 years.
China 19 destroyed khamzat career he’s never the same since he got sick.
Really like Rob Whittaker, a real gent in a sport where gents are hard to find.

Im so sick of it i dont watch ufc much anymore. Ill watch Whittaker fight but i know it will be over a year before dana books his next fight.
Bro i love them both I don't want them to fight, it's going to be epic tho but still😢
AND NOW WE ARE HOPEFULLY GONNA WATCH THIS MATERIALIZE

Another guy too tough to wear a mask and then has health problems
I am khamzat fan.. But i love rob. He is the real G.
It's too bad about his career. It's Dana's fault. He waited two years for scared ass Colby. Now over a year and no middleweights stepped up until Whittaker and he didn't want it.
He will be Whitaker easy but by time the title fight gets here nobody will give a shit.

Two fights in 2 years thumb down
Well spoken, both great guys!
Rob is acting like he can't do the same to him
Rob is the champ. What a class guy he is.
🥊Whitaker🥊
Everyone loves bobby knuckles!!!!
Regardless if Rob wins or loses i will respect him more than Khamzat just can't stand the dude for some reason
Whitaker is an okay guy!

Now they're gonna fight
Good ol' Bobby Knuckles
Good luck Khamzat...u r d best Champ.💪💪💪💖👍
Just love Whitaker he is a real down to earth respectful man
Whittaker already lost
My favorite! What an AWESOME guy🙏
And now they're booked for the Saudi Arabia card
Can't stay on weight
Can't fight more than once a year
Can't fight in the US
Barely beat an old former lightweight Burns at WW
Barely beat an old former welterweight Usman at MW
The only thing Chimaev can do is post "see you soon 🐺", I think Rob is fine.
The narration will change if he gets through Rob, gets a title shot and becomes the champ by the end of the year. UFC casuals are biggest band wagoners !
How is not fighting in the us his fault tho?
lol that’s always what you clowns do. Burns was a lw like he didn’t fight for the belt at 170. Usman is a better win than abus and imamov, that’s who Strickland beat for a title shot lol.
Love Whitaker
Dude looks so cool
Bro when is he fighting again it's been too long
Whiitaker is fighting Khamzat in a main event on June 22.
Ow. Haha
thats why i now respect him to
And it happens now 😂😂😂😂
Khamzat will finish him .
no dedication to staying on weight.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤wAmza
His worst nightmare came true
Khamzat is gonna maul him bro. Dricus in the first round tripped him easily and had his way. I think Chimaev is gonna do far more damage than du Plessis
@@A1Gz_ddp literally has a legit judo game
Bro couldn't even finsih a 10 days notice past prime usman, rob is gonna run through him
@@lim-lz6kxlike usman is some bum lol the guy’s a division 3 wrestler and you can’t hold underhooks for 5 minutes against someone that strong and possibly on the juice of course you’re gonna get tired you know nothing about the grappling game
@@lim-lz6kx this is the best part of build ups. say that all you want and get all the likes you want. but after its all said and done i will be back to ask a couple questions just like ive done in every single fucking fight that khamzats had in the ufc
Wow
But he didn't make weight on his biggest fight which was against Nate Diaz. So was he scared or was it something else?
Imo Rob is too good to get beat in thd first round and in round 2 Khamzat is half the fighter and even slower in the third Rob breaks him down in round two and finishes him in the third.
Whittaker is really scared of Khamzat 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Not scared but respect. Whittaker want to fight poatan and you think he is scared of chimaev?
You must be smoking crack
Everything Rob said has backfired
Like what?
@@stevedaddy3498 for one he's never fought anybody bigger than him 2 guy barely fights once a year 3 he didn't finish his last two opponents
@@icedragon-on3lnyou realise this was 4 years ago? Like stop talking my boy
At the time his comments were 100% true, you expect him to be a fortune teller?
