I don't think anything fundamentally changed based on the Whittaker fight. We all knew going into it that Whittaker would be taken down. The question was would he survive. Well, he was surviving, up until the moment Khamzat pressed on his his jaw which then shattered. That was a Whittaker specific outcome and Whittaker himself said his jaw was busted up in the Dricus fight which is what led to the outcome with Khamzat. Essentially Dricus broke his jaw, then Khamzat profited.
@@somealias-zs1bw It wasn't his jaw, it was his bottom teeth that gave out. It could've only happened to someone with a history of poor dental, like Whitaker.
I think dricus and Caio Borallho have the best chance of defeating Khamzat. Good grapplers with a submission threat while also being more dangerous than Khamzat on the feet. The best way to nullify Khamzat wrestling is to avoid trying to stand back up and instead, accept guard and constantly attack with submissions or strikes off the back. Gilbert did really well because of this. Whenever Khamzat faces even a little bit of adversary on the ground, he gets discouraged and prefers to stand.
U just don’t understand the difference in their energy! Dricus is an average well skilled fighter and Khamzat just a crazy beast .. guys I know people from Chechnya u don’t understand how different they are from others … in bad and in good ways
"Gilbert did this really well" Yeah, Burns also has the most defensively sound BJJ in the roster. He's arguably the best in the UFC when it comes to defending himself on the ground lol, I wouldn't bet on anyone else replicating this. Besides, Khamzat still has 1-Hit K.O power which neither DDP or Caio have shown
I think DDP stands a real good shot. I think he's different because he actually has the raw strength to deal with Khamzat that others don't. That will be the difference between him making it out of the first round and others that can't. If you're strong enough to put up a fight it makes him work harder which is what you want.
Yeah it’s 50/50 for me, I know Khamzat has a huge technical advantage but DDP has superior brutish physicality, heart, cardio, professionalism, and cerebral presence of mind.
I like DDP and I believe it'll be a tough fight but I think Khamzat is light years ahead in wrestling. Roman Dolidze is one of his training partners. He's bigger than DDP and has elite wrestling grappling, being from Georgia. Merab and Iliya have proven the pedigree of Georgians in wrestling/grappling. Alexander Gustafson is another of Khamzat's training partners and a UFC Hall of Famer and I think He took Jon Jones to a close decision the first time. He's also huge and a great wrestler. Not to mention Robert is one of the best wrestlers/grapplers in the middle weight division. He beat Jacare Souza and Joel Romero, both elite in wrestling and grappling.
Chimaevs had 8 fights, 6 of those late have landed a total of 4 Punches on him. 4 of those 6 include, Whittaker, Holland, Jingliang & GM3 and of those 4 names, only 2 strikes were landed and those were 2 leg kicks from Whittaker. Nobody is stopping this guy💀
It would have been nice to see Chimaev fight someone in the top 10-5 before Whittaker. There's only 3 people to fight now at 185. DDP, Strickland, and Adesanya.
I can, i am 5'8, 74 inches of reach, 224 lbs. I have monstrous TDD, southpaw who uses a philly shell with soviet style in and out movement. Chimaev is lucky because my boss won't let me go to the UFC because they can't get another competent cashier to work at target
@maxwellsdemon10 You really think I'm joking? My father is an ex trainer who used to work in soviet boxers' camps he has been teaching me the efficient in and out movement since I was 11 UFC guys are lucky because talented guys like us can't afford to fight there or don't have the time to do so
@someguy701 sure but Dricus' pure wrestling is better I would argue. Has much cleaner takedowns, he also took down Whittaker and when he did, Robert did not escape. Besides, he's big, strong, and 5 round proven. Besides that, he's much more known to have knockout power than Burns.
@dgj_184 point is if strickland is focused purely on being an anti-wrestler he could keep getting up like he did vs dricus instead of accepting the grappling. I think khamzat dominates strickland but i can see sean getting up a few times.
Honestly I think Whittaker has the best scrambles and some of if not the best TDD defence in the open, and honestly it just wasn’t enough. Khamzat gets guys into his world and even when he does get out scrambled like he did against Rob, he just gets the immediate reshot to take it back down. Adesanya I don’t see doing well, he had great TDD in the open but so does Rob, and like Rob he will get backed to the cage and taken down. From there he is a lot worse at scrambling than Rob and I don’t see him getting back up. Strickland is good at scrambling and may be better at get ups than Rob even is, but he has far worse TDD and in general worse scrambling and wrestling even if he has better BJJ. I could see Strickland surviving and tiring Khamzat like that. Honestly had his teeth not given in Whittaker should have survived that attempt and maybe done the same but sadly we didn’t get to see that. Furthermore I think Strickland has a more exhausting style to face than Rob does, so there is a chance for him. DDP I think is the only one with real shot here, he is an incredibly good grappler, and he is as strong as a horse, like some goofy strength. He also will push forward against Khamzat and does have more heart if it does go long. The one thing that holds me back from being more sure on him is how he got kinda rag dolled by Derek Brunson, and from there we don’t know much about his ability off bottom and if it’s improved. DDP also is incredible at game planning and really does have underrated fight iq, the guy plans for every opponent so specifically and understands them so well. This I feel really could come into play cause I could see him not backing down from Khamzat and pushing forward, making Khamzat uncomfortable and unsettled. I could see DDP beating Khamzat though and I would probably favour him by just a tad maybe 60%/40% in favour of DDP.
3:20 Just a bjjj guy here but sprawling would not be the only defense, though limiting that option like Khamzat did is for sure a great tactic. Another option would be to turn the corner while pressuring heavily downward on a overhook while circling away from the fence. Now this might not be enough for a full escape, but hopefully as he is chasing forward you have now moved away enough from the fence to be actually able to sprawl if his next attack in the chain is another shot.
I can tell you’re a bjj guy by the fact that you don’t know it’s gonna be a fight and Khamzat isn’t gonna shoot faster than a human can reasonably react
I'm not counting DDP at all, his team is great at making gameplans and he executes them well. His fight agaisnt Sean was super high level. His wonky style includes his grappling, Khamzat isn't going to find someone to train against who can mimic his style and vice versa for them training for Khamzat. It comes down to gameplan and whether or not DDP can survive round one and tire out Khamzat or not. If he can then he can win for sure. Dude has limitless heart, gamefulness maxed out attribute. Khamzat is a power wave, but runs the risk of burning out. If he brings a pro gameplan and sticks to it then he wins.
I believe in Caio Borralho, the guys is just to strategical and is never loosing, i believe he will be able to handle the inicial rounds and come up with a way to win the last rounds
first, break down petr yan vs figeureido, i'm more excited for that fight than any fight on UFC 309 petr yan is my favourite fighter along iwth dan hooker and ilia topuria
There's a clip of Whitaker talking about khabib nurmagomedov moving up in weight, possibly even 185, Whtitaker was commenting on how scary he was and for him to stay at the lower weights jokingly. Ironically he just got khabibed and the same way Connor got khabibed
Khamzats toughest opponent is his own body as we have witnessed the last few years, he seems to have overcome this. It will be an amazing story coming from intensive care due to his immune system to MW champion
Look we all knew if Khamzat were to beat B. Knuckles, it was going to have to be in round 1 or 2. The fact that he was able to do that wasn’t a huge surprise. What was, however, completely unexpected is that Whitaker’s jaw was compromised even going into the fight. Imagine how much different the betting line would have been if we knew that someone with a weakened jaw is going up against someone who mostly finishes fights with some form of a powerful choke? Even going forward now, if Whitaker doesn’t retire, how can he ever compete against anyone who has any capability to take his back and apply any pressure on his face? Besides, as tough as Whitaker has been in his career, his Achilles hill has now been exposed and if I were Bobby, I wouldn’t risk for potentially something worse happening to him in the octagon going forward
Everyone is afraid of his wrestling. Look what he did to usman. No ones ever done that to him. When I saw that I realized this guy is levels above his competition. He is not perfect but very capable of winning the title now.
I’m not saying he would, but remember that Strickland has submitted opponents in the past, and although he doesn’t like to, he did say that the game plan against Izzy was to wrestle, so Strickland is no idiot on the ground. He said about the Abus Magomedov fight, “you can take me down but you can’t hold me down”
Something else to consider is dricus is the only one who has the physicality of a middleweight, whittaker and strickland are both former welterweights, and adesanya is so tall he could bulk to light heavy but doesnt
I feel Dricus's best chance is landing a big shot in a transition. DDP is an animal but i think Khamzat's skill lv will be enough to give him clear advantage in grappling. Dricus will be very tough to finish imo tho, and the longer he weathers storm the more opportunities he will have to land or find an opening. I do lean Khamzat right now but feels like a close fight to me.
I will get hate for this but he got kinda lucky vs Whittaker. That was a preexisting injury, it wasnt like he pushed the teeth in on someone who wasnt prone to getting his teeth pushed in, so to speak. That means, he wont do that to other guys at MW. Ofc he can sub guys but not via neck crank like that.
Yeah i mean he hasn't done that to the others he fought so that's pretty reasonable. Idk why so many are acting as if the injury didn’t play a big role.
I think Izzy might do it. People think hes easy to just outgrapple...he's not. I would love to see him vs Khamzat. If Khamzat cant finish him in round 1, he would be absolutely schooled on the feet.
Khamzat runs through the MW division atm, no one can beat him. The memes are not saving DDP, Khamzat will do him worse than Whittaker. I want to see Khamzat at LHW and against Pereira that's the fight between two boogeymen that's appealing to me
@@doctorsam5771 all cumshot has is shooting early and by the second around he's spent like I was asleep a young teenager. He has shown nothing else. Whittaker was trying to get on of the first round and he teeth went. An old injury. Rob has a metal plate there and it popped out before. O one more thing plz keep doubting DDP.
Bro you really don’t think Adesanya doesn’t have enough fight IQ NOT TO “leg kick and jab Khamzat from far away”? I’m not an Adesanya fan but come on, you have to give him a little bit more credit…
That’s how adesanya fights, he can’t just change his strategy to not ‘leg kick at range’ Adesanya will never be able to fight similarly to someone like DDP no matter how hard he tries, he just isn’t built for that, and he’s NEVER DONE IT BEFORE. He’s not suddenly going to be able to switch to the most wild offensive forward pressuring kickboxer ever simply because his opponent is a bit worse at striking
Marvin Vettori has the best chance to beat Khamzat, he’s nearly impossible to put away and has good cardio to outlast Khamzat as long as he doesn’t get subbed early on
Is everyone forgetting Gerald Meerschart never got taken down by Khamzat?
Khamzat is clearly ducking the rematch with GM3

Khamzat runs through the MW division atm, no one can beat him. The memes are not saving DDP, Khamzat will do him worse than Whittaker. I want to see Khamzat at LHW and against Pereira that's the fight between two boogeymen that's appealing to me
Cum shot will lose his 0
@Jagged-mm7sb Doubt it. Pereira gets done in the first round
@@doctorsam5771 all cumshot has is shooting early and by the second around he's spent like I was asleep a young teenager. He has shown nothing else.
Whittaker was trying to get on of the first round and he teeth went. An old injury. Rob has a metal plate there and it popped out before.
O one more thing plz keep doubting DDP.
My fear is Khamzat ducking DDP. I understand he gets special champ level pay already for a while now and he's afraid that could end after DDP.
@@toast2610 Lmao Ducking the Champ? You good brother?
The Adesanya hate is so cringe.
As an adesanya glazer and a kickboxer, adesanya has a high chance of making khamzat look easy
They should put khamzat in with Alex for the 205 strap if anke doesn't budge for the fight
Whittaker had an underhook on Ratlip and it didn't matter
DDP is the man, he is the Ilia Topuria of 185
Just watched 0:04 minutes of the video just to tell everyone this " DDP runs through khamzat and it's not gonna bé close"
MMA Che - "Hum-Zot Chimaev"
Robert Whittaker in a rematch. His teeth were vulnerable
They'll always be vulnerable even if he fixes it
Dude he got taken down in the first 5 seconds
The cope is insane
Holy shit the cope is crazy, he’s had that for years and only now it’s broke because Khamzat has the strength to break it, get over it.
He did good until his teeth got screwed; unfortunately, I don't think that they'll ever get better.
Bro you really don’t think Adesanya doesn’t have enough fight IQ NOT TO “leg kick and jab Khamzat from far away”? I’m not an Adesanya fan but come on, you have to give him a little bit more credit…
That’s how adesanya fights, he can’t just change his strategy to not ‘leg kick at range’
Adesanya will never be able to fight similarly to someone like DDP no matter how hard he tries, he just isn’t built for that, and he’s NEVER DONE IT BEFORE. He’s not suddenly going to be able to switch to the most wild offensive forward pressuring kickboxer ever simply because his opponent is a bit worse at striking
Cumshot vs Izzy is the big fight ! It’s so true
Marvin Vettori has the best chance to beat Khamzat, he’s nearly impossible to put away and has good cardio to outlast Khamzat as long as he doesn’t get subbed early on
very good analysis dude I enjoyed it and yes DPP is the only one who has a decent chance vs Khamzat. Pizzy will be mauled.
If Sean gets the match and wins, he wont fight Khamzat, ever. He knows he literally has 0 chance of winning that.
No one bud…… no one!!!
Khamzat needs to fight Strickland to jump the queue
Dricus via double spinning backfist
pretty sure khamzat said he violated strickland in sparring
Nobody wants to see Izzy fight khazmat lol let the man fight for the belt
Izzy haters would wanna see that lol. Like every mma fan tbh
All fun and games until Issac Frost comes out
DDP grew on me quick. I feel like he beats Sean second fight and Khamzat honestly
DDP WILL STOP HIM DON'T Worry 🇨🇩🇿🇦
only ddp, hulle weet nie wat ons weet nie
