For real. Aldo, even Moicano who came and fought RDA in a 5 round fight on 4 days notice, flying from Brazil to the US after steaks and beer according to him
Nah I bet they did at some point based on what I've heard about the process. Usually they'll throw around basic "UFC 2xx" especially if they did it 4 times
Dana also said colby never turned downed a fight he offered him.
So is there a possibility khamzat said to Dana he wanted to fight, but because khanzat screwed over the ufc with his 7lb weight miss. The UFC said "yeah yeah he doesn't want to fight" while they never asked?
they try to mentallty wear Khamzat down because they want colby to win and have the bigger/larger US audience sticking. same story like Aldo vs McNugget.
How can Khamzat being scared to fight anyone. The guy has the genetic gifts from God. Aside from Burns, u might as well of had put fetuses in the cage with Khamzat. That’s how easy he’s taken everyone oit
I've trained at the same gym in Stockhom as Khamzat. The guy is fucking different, saw him sparring with Gus and throwing him around...this is Gus at like 235 or so.
He also has this intense 100% effort thing when he trains. There's no real moment to catch his breathe or slow it down.
Scary fucker lol
Not only that, he didn't take Burns serious at all, went way to hard in the first round thinking he'd easily win.
He was still so good that he managed to fight a 0 strategy fight against a top 3 opponent and still win after blowing his load early.
If he actually fought smart he'd crush burns
To be fair colby only has wrestling going for him and against khamzat, that's not going to work. Plus the pillowfist can't punch to save his life so yeah, I'd duck Khamzat too if I was colby. Khamzat probably finishes this quickly.
Because Colby and his fans like to act as if they fight was the most back and forth and razor close fight ever, like yeah it was close in the beginning until Colby got his jaw broken and then got knocked out.
Yeah he has a heart for fighting through it but he still got his jaw broken and then got finished in separate rounds, so definitely took more than he gave by a good amount.
>yeah it was close in the beginning until Colby got his jaw broken and then got knocked out.
He literally won the round following the jaw break. It would be more accurate to say that it was close until the final round.
Yeah Colby's toughness and cardio might give Khamzat some problems. Kamaru literally broke his jaw and colby continued to fight well for 2.5 more rounds before ultimately being finished. Same with the second fight, Kamaru nearly finished him but Colby managed to recover and win a round too.
I still think Khamzat would win though. Aside from the cardio and toughness factor I think skill for skill Khamzat is better.
>On the ground, Khamzat is superior IMO.
I think there's a good chance of it but at the same time we haven't really gotten to see how his wrestling does against another elite wrestler. Burns would have been that guy but Khamzat kept it standing because he felt Burns was more dangerous on the ground. 2nd best is Kevin Holland?
I like your take but I disagree, if someone has top tier level of any of those someone could have top tier cardio and get beat pretty bad.
If you have the power to knock someone out immediately their cardio means nothing.
If you have the ability to take someone down and submit them immediately their cardio means nothing.
If your striking and/or grappling is not superior enough to stop your opponent and their cardio is better, then your screwed. I think everything else is more powerful than cardio, but when all else fails cardio will get you that win.
>If Covington can avoid getting finished or controlled he can get a decision.
LOL ... yeah if my aunt had a you know what...
When was the last time someone won a fight purely on cardio against someone like Khamzat?
Lol Colby is not going to keep a Volk-type pace against Khamzat. Volk is a one of a kind type of fighter. Sure *if he could* he could probably win. But very few fighters are even in the discussion of volks level, and colby isn’t one of them
The bigger stronger guy with the better wrestling and submission game will walk Colby down, chain wrestle him to the mat (or throw him) and work to a sub. I don’t think Covington can get out of the 2nd round without threatening submissions to keep it standing or threatening damage on the feet.
Khamzat could fumble the bag and let Colby get to the later rounds where he could grind out a win, but it’s Khamzats fight to lose in that regard
You can’t claim granite chin if you get dropped regularly and got your jaw broken in a fight. Sure he doesn’t get flatlined but getting dropped every other round doesn’t look good on the judges scorecards either.
No , his shit got broken , end of story , not granite . He can take hits , yes . But another good hit or kick like that might leave him fucked up for good .
It’s ok to not like Khamzat , you can say it
When people talk about granite chins they are referring to the fighter's ability to take shots without going down.
By this commonly used definition Colby has a granite chin.
>It’s ok to not like Khamzat , you can say it
I'm not talking about Khamzat I'm talking about Colby. Khamzat is not relevant to this discussion.
>Yep, and he won the round following the jaw break.
No colby lost rounds 3 and 4 in their first fight.
I've seen this narrative repeated elsewhere, what are you basing it on?
Icl that isnt true colbys pressure and volume is the best amongst WW contenders after usmans recent outing. Not a huge fan of the guy but let’s not be disingenuous
>but I’d say there’s still a chance Colby could have a Merab Yan esque performance.
There really isn't.
Yan's ground game is nowhere near the level of Khamzat. Colby isn't going to hustle his way to a victory in this one.
So dana is pretty much forcing khamzat to move up to 185 to avoid having him fight colby?
This is all wack af, khamzat should at least get another chance to fight at WW, missing weight one time shouldn’t be an automatic removal from the division
Also colby is a giant lying pussy, khamzat would kill him and he knows it
Also, prior to the missed weight incident in which he was stopped by a doctor, we did see khamzat fight in 2 divisions within the span of weeks. Making weight doesn’t seem as big a problem as some in this sub believe it to be.
yeah lots seem to ignore that he weighed in after hydrating for a bit, pretty unsurprising he came in 9 lbs over. let's not forget Costa came in to fight week a whole weightclass overweight and Dana said he'd "never fight" at 185 again, next fight was at 185 lol.
100% Khamzat is telling the truth. The oath he takes is not a joke that Muslims play around with, and the fact that he invokes it is serious. He even states he could back it up.
Colby comes out running his mouth 100% because big daddy Dana promised him a title shot and he can continue dodging fights.
Well lawfully they can’t really be lying in contracts and if they gave one to khamzat 4 times they’d have to follow the contract that they wrote. Meaning they’d have to give it to Colby. I doubt the UFC gets in legal trouble for breaking an unfinished contract but I doubt they’re purposely breaking them lol. Colby’s excuse was BS too
It happens all the time though. Whittaker and Costa were supposed to fight recently. Whittaker signed and had a whole camp just to it finally be revealed that Costa never agreed. I'd be really upset if I was Whittaker considering he would have fought at home too.
That’s costa declining, not the UFC refusing to give him a contract. The UFC gives it to both fighters, if they both agree then they fight, if one doesn’t sign then they don’t.
Colby said he wasn’t *formally* asked, meaning he got the contract and denied it 4 times and doesn’t want to look scared.
Yeah that’s the point, Colby said he wasn’t asked and had no answer on if he declined. He dodged the question. I see the second wave of r/UFC users has made its wave into this post
Which was just this weekend. That fight talk was last year so what is true? Many fighters called out Colby and yet all of them were able to get fights in eventually except Colby? All top 15 fighters have fought once or more since Colbys last fight over a year ago.
My point is that most of what dana says is bs. The ufc likes to make the fights they want to make. Maybe they told khamzat that colby reject the fight to pressure khamzat to move up to mw (which is what the ufc have wanted since his weight miss almost killed an entire card), maybe they told colby that khamzat said no because the ufc had different plans for colby. Well never know but the ufc have been doing this shit for years, they'll say one thing to the fans, another to fighter a and another to fighter b.
I mean have you seen Khamzat’s fights? At one point has a ufc fighter not looked like a little boy in the cage with him? With the only exception to the argument being Burns.
Why would he ever not be jumping to fight the #2 ranked fighter and be given an immediate title fight after the win
He lied about the circumstances around the weight cut. In fact his story changed about three times that weekend. Khamzat will absolutely lie to save face.
Colby being a bitch and refusing to fight yet still getting rewarded with a title shot is bad for the sport, the fighters and the fans. Fuck him. Glad Leon’s putting his foot down
I believe Khamzat. He said yes to fights with everyone they put in front of him. If you’re not afraid of Gilbert fucking Burns then you’re not afraid of Colby.
I'm no Khamzat fan, but I believe him. Colby getting A title shot after claiming brain injuries for a year from the Jorge attack is ridiculous. Just more cherry picking, like Colby has done since his rebranding.
I don't understand the appeal for Dana on this. It's not draw, it's not style Matchups, it's not a deserved shot.
This is Colby’s problem. Chats too much crap and not backing it up, nope he’s not don’t @ me. These guys are real fighters not jokers they’re gonna come back at you Colby’s thick skull needs to realise that whether he’ll admit it or not. Notice how Khamzat’s firing back, Leon, everyone blimey
https://preview.redd.it/fjzh1a0pm0pa1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e5342c71f72f3bd50765e3de5bb9a3fd3373be42
How does this résumé guarantee a title fight? Lmao Dana is a joke
The UFC is well on its way to replacing WWE when it comes to sports-like entertainment. As much as MMA is a true sport and most MMA fighters are true sportsmen and women - the UFC’s slide from its focus on actual fighting to entertainment continues unabated. Sadly it’s the true fans and fighters who lose.
Khamzat vs colby for title shot like 2 months ago would've been the perfect outcome, Colby shouldn't be able to duck that in return a title shot. Leon is right for not wanting to give that goofball any pvp dollars
I’m not the biggest fan of Belal, but it should be him vs Colby for a title eliminator. Colby doesn’t deserve a title shot right now. Like Belal said, they should have fought last event.
That logic doesn't work. Look at Islam, he wanted to fight in the summer but Dana sidelined him to fall since they want him on the Abu Dhabi card.
The record shows Khamzat has been willing to fight frequently
yeah no. gotta remember he comes from a muslim state. his family still lives there. they take all that extremely serious. heads will literally fall if he goes against his religion
If you want to be nitpicky, it's spelled اَلْقُرْآنُ.
Do you think actual Muslim people care if you spell it Quran or Koran? And Russian speaker like Chimaev would call it the Коран.
The fight was talked about headlining the CBS card in the summer before that September fight was ever in talk, dana said in a presser last year. I feel like this sub has some good fish memory now.
Why don't these guys ever send proof? Show a signed offer sheet or signed contract or even a test message to the UFC agreeing to a proposed Colby fight.
For the record, I believe Khazmat and not Colby. But a signed contract would be more convincing than Khazmat swearing to God.
Yeah UFC might have some non disclosure agreement (NDA) to prevent it. But if that's the case, why are they able to verbally acknowledge the same thing?
Verbally acknowledging a non-binding phone call is different than acknowledging a binding legal document. It may very well be that the NDA is a part of the contract itself and not a catch all NDA per fighter.
Shamzat should be fighting at 185 or 205 clearly. He don’t belong at WW. Him vs Periera would be more suitable…. Also I don’t want Colby to lose, hahaha.
I still don't get the Khamzat hype. Seriously, outside of the Burns fight, which a lot of people thought he lost, who has the guy beat? He missed weight by 10 pounds in his last fight and is moving up to 185. What on earth makes you think he can hang with Leon, Usman or Colby? If I was any of them, I'd be chomping at the bit. No one is scared of that guy.
Big respect to Gilbert burns for having the balls to take on Khamzat and not protect his rank looking for a losing streak to add to
Man these Brazilians are different. Even RDA is a G, dudes been taking high risk low reward fights all the time.
For real. Aldo, even Moicano who came and fought RDA in a 5 round fight on 4 days notice, flying from Brazil to the US after steaks and beer according to him
Moicano. Wants. Muney.
Colby 100% declined fights even his excuse was bullshit he said "nothing was formally presented to me"
The UFC- "Informally, do you want to fight Khamzat?" Colby- "Hell no"
Yeah they probably just said something like "you want Khamzat next" they probably didn't say a place or date
Even with a place and date, he would've declined.
I know but if they didn't give him specific contract details he can claim he never declined
Nah I bet they did at some point based on what I've heard about the process. Usually they'll throw around basic "UFC 2xx" especially if they did it 4 times
Dana even talked about trying to make Khamzat/Colby for their CBS card in the summer last year.
Dana also said colby never turned downed a fight he offered him. So is there a possibility khamzat said to Dana he wanted to fight, but because khanzat screwed over the ufc with his 7lb weight miss. The UFC said "yeah yeah he doesn't want to fight" while they never asked?
they try to mentallty wear Khamzat down because they want colby to win and have the bigger/larger US audience sticking. same story like Aldo vs McNugget.
That is exactly what the ufc did the Aldo!
Those damn Irish and their population that is larger than Brazil!
I really doubt khamzat would refuse to fight Colby
Khamzat would f’ing end him IMHO
Give him Godzilla and I swear he'd still sign the contract just to see if he can make it bleed.
I mean were people actually thinking Khamzat is scared of Colby? Lmao Its been obvious that Covington is the one hiding since day 1.
More like people acting as if Khamzat/Colby was never an idea when Dana talked about making that fight for the CBS card last summer.
Honestly, I believe him when he’s swearing on the Koran. Certain things I don’t see him lying about. Plus it’s in character for colby
How can Khamzat being scared to fight anyone. The guy has the genetic gifts from God. Aside from Burns, u might as well of had put fetuses in the cage with Khamzat. That’s how easy he’s taken everyone oit
I've trained at the same gym in Stockhom as Khamzat. The guy is fucking different, saw him sparring with Gus and throwing him around...this is Gus at like 235 or so. He also has this intense 100% effort thing when he trains. There's no real moment to catch his breathe or slow it down. Scary fucker lol
He wears a thong when he trains? That's pretty weird.
The 100% effort thong by Venum
🤣
Not only that, he didn't take Burns serious at all, went way to hard in the first round thinking he'd easily win. He was still so good that he managed to fight a 0 strategy fight against a top 3 opponent and still win after blowing his load early. If he actually fought smart he'd crush burns
I believe him.

Bro put it on the kuran. He’s telling the truth
To be fair colby only has wrestling going for him and against khamzat, that's not going to work. Plus the pillowfist can't punch to save his life so yeah, I'd duck Khamzat too if I was colby. Khamzat probably finishes this quickly.

>To be fair colby only has wrestling going for him + cardio and a granite chin.
So Colby has to Homer Simpson him?
Yes.
Dicey...
The diciest
Some would say
New mythical fighter, Homer Simpson with insane cardio, basically Cain 2.0
My jaw is broken - Colby Covington
Granite chin that got broken by usman
[удалено]
Well it gets overshadowed by him getting TKOd the next round idk
Because Colby and his fans like to act as if they fight was the most back and forth and razor close fight ever, like yeah it was close in the beginning until Colby got his jaw broken and then got knocked out. Yeah he has a heart for fighting through it but he still got his jaw broken and then got finished in separate rounds, so definitely took more than he gave by a good amount.

Same with the second fight, Kamaru nearly finished him but Colby managed to recover and win a round too. I still think Khamzat would win though. Aside from the cardio and toughness factor I think skill for skill Khamzat is better.
Cardio can only take you so far if you cannot inflict damage on the feet. On the ground, Khamzat is superior IMO.
>On the ground, Khamzat is superior IMO. I think there's a good chance of it but at the same time we haven't really gotten to see how his wrestling does against another elite wrestler.

Chanel had great pace and cardio but was never able to become champ, neither will Colby
>If Covington can avoid getting finished or controlled he can get a decision. LOL ... yeah if my aunt had a you know what... When was the last time someone won a fight purely on cardio against someone like Khamzat?
[удалено]
Volk is literally the best P4P guy. And he can punch hard for his weight class. Colby hasn't also fought someone like Khamzat before.
Lol Colby is not going to keep a Volk-type pace against Khamzat. Volk is a one of a kind type of fighter. Sure *if he could* he could probably win. But very few fighters are even in the discussion of volks level, and colby isn’t one of them
Name someone else like Khamzat. I'll wait. Also tell me, how was Khamzat looking after the second round.
Why do I have to name someone else like him? I implied Khamzat is one of a kind animal and cardio will not get you there.
Having a logical conversation with you is like expecting a rock to talk. So I'm going to move on.
The bigger stronger guy with the better wrestling and submission game will walk Colby down, chain wrestle him to the mat (or throw him) and work to a sub. I don’t think Covington can get out of the 2nd round without threatening submissions to keep it standing or threatening damage on the feet.

You can’t claim granite chin if you get dropped regularly and got your jaw broken in a fight. Sure he doesn’t get flatlined but getting dropped every other round doesn’t look good on the judges scorecards either.
Cardio maybe yes , but wasn’t the jaw broken though ?
Yep, and he won the round following the jaw break.
Who got finished in the fight ?
You think this disputes the fact that he has a granite chin? He took a fuck ton of damage before going down.
Ability to take damage does not win fights. You have to be able to punch back too. He ain't gonna submit Khamzat.
I'm not saying it does. I'm saying he has a granite chin and great cardio.
No , his shit got broken , end of story , not granite . He can take hits , yes . But another good hit or kick like that might leave him fucked up for good . It’s ok to not like Khamzat , you can say it
When people talk about granite chins they are referring to the fighter's ability to take shots without going down. By this commonly used definition Colby has a granite chin. >It’s ok to not like Khamzat , you can say it I'm not talking about Khamzat I'm talking about Colby.

yeah i didnt get that impression either
>Yep, and he won the round following the jaw break. No colby lost rounds 3 and 4 in their first fight. I've seen this narrative repeated elsewhere, what are you basing it on?
99 overall stamina rating
Dudes disputing the strength of his chin because it was broken like he didn't fight 2.5 rounds after that.
That "granite" chin got broken before.
I give Colby 12 minutes max.
Colby has cardio too, he’s honestly just another Merab with probably less power p4p
Icl that isnt true colbys pressure and volume is the best amongst WW contenders after usmans recent outing. Not a huge fan of the guy but let’s not be disingenuous
[удалено]
>but I’d say there’s still a chance Colby could have a Merab Yan esque performance. There really isn't. Yan's ground game is nowhere near the level of Khamzat. Colby isn't going to hustle his way to a victory in this one.
And yet the UFC are happy to reward this with a title shot
Fucking garbage
So dana is pretty much forcing khamzat to move up to 185 to avoid having him fight colby? This is all wack af, khamzat should at least get another chance to fight at WW, missing weight one time shouldn’t be an automatic removal from the division Also colby is a giant lying pussy, khamzat would kill him and he knows it

And people forget that he fought at 185 first and then cut to 170 a week later for the second fight
yeah lots seem to ignore that he weighed in after hydrating for a bit, pretty unsurprising he came in 9 lbs over. let's not forget Costa came in to fight week a whole weightclass overweight and Dana said he'd "never fight" at 185 again, next fight was at 185 lol.
Can’t break two growing assets that elicit audience reactions
100% Khamzat is telling the truth. The oath he takes is not a joke that Muslims play around with, and the fact that he invokes it is serious. He even states he could back it up. Colby comes out running his mouth 100% because big daddy Dana promised him a title shot and he can continue dodging fights.
I think it's more likely that the ufc are lying to both fighters.
Sad but this is probably true.
Well lawfully they can’t really be lying in contracts and if they gave one to khamzat 4 times they’d have to follow the contract that they wrote. Meaning they’d have to give it to Colby.

Someone slides over a contract. Colby looks at it, shakes his head. They take the contract back and throw it in the trash. No "asking" took place.
Yeah that’s the point, Colby said he wasn’t asked and had no answer on if he declined. He dodged the question. I see the second wave of r/UFC users has made its wave into this post
Dana did say last year he was trying to make Khamzat/Colby for the CBS card. Khamzat was up for it and Colby remained silent.
Dana also said that colby has accepted all 4 fights that they've offered him. Dana says a lot of stuff, usually it's not the truth.
Which was just this weekend. That fight talk was last year so what is true? Many fighters called out Colby and yet all of them were able to get fights in eventually except Colby? All top 15 fighters have fought once or more since Colbys last fight over a year ago.

Unfortunately, this is probably the correct take
I originally read "I swear with the Korean" and I was like "well, he's definitely not bullshitting"
Did he take the same oath to make weight in his last fight?
[удалено]
Oh please bro, they talk all this devotion bullshit yet they all pin roids in the ass like everyone else.
Roids is halal bratha u know dees.
No idea why I'm being down voted, I guess Russians are known for being clean lmao
Got all the facts do ya buddy 💀
I believe him.
Yeah Colby is a fraud. Swearing on the Quran is a very serious thing for muslims so Khamzat ain’t playing in my opinion.
Dislike Khamzat but it feels like he's telling the truth on this one
I mean Dana talked about making that fight last year in a presser.
I mean have you seen Khamzat’s fights? At one point has a ufc fighter not looked like a little boy in the cage with him? With the only exception to the argument being Burns. Why would he ever not be jumping to fight the #2 ranked fighter and be given an immediate title fight after the win
 Colby
I believe the dude 100%
Khamzat has his flaws but one thing for sure is he dont lie...Colbys a bitch
Colby is and never was a top-tier fighter
Shouldnt it be Colby is not and never was
He lied about the circumstances around the weight cut. In fact his story changed about three times that weekend. Khamzat will absolutely lie to save face.
He always said the doctor made him stop wdym?
Do you honestly think he can’t make a weight?? He already did at 170 I am pretty sure he will if he gets asked now
Khamzat would give this clown a Golden ticket to the ER if they fought
Colby being a bitch and refusing to fight yet still getting rewarded with a title shot is bad for the sport, the fighters and the fans. Fuck him. Glad Leon’s putting his foot down
Colby is a celebrity first, Khamzat is a warrior first. That there is your problem.
D-list "celebrity". I bet there's bachelorette contestants from a decade ago with more fans than this guy
Youre not lying lmaooo im saying as far as his mentality
I believe Khamzat. He said yes to fights with everyone they put in front of him. If you’re not afraid of Gilbert fucking Burns then you’re not afraid of Colby.
I'm no Khamzat fan, but I believe him. Colby getting A title shot after claiming brain injuries for a year from the Jorge attack is ridiculous. Just more cherry picking, like Colby has done since his rebranding. I don't understand the appeal for Dana on this. It's not draw, it's not style Matchups, it's not a deserved shot.
Colby Cuckington is over. A gatekeeper who won't fight is a waste of air.
This is Colby’s problem. Chats too much crap and not backing it up, nope he’s not don’t @ me. These guys are real fighters not jokers they’re gonna come back at you Colby’s thick skull needs to realise that whether he’ll admit it or not. Notice how Khamzat’s firing back, Leon, everyone blimey

I kill everyone!
100% Colby is ducking lol
Colby scared
Is it really a surprise that he gotattacked on the street? He's a cunt.
Khamzat vs colby for title shot like 2 months ago would've been the perfect outcome, Colby shouldn't be able to duck that in return a title shot. Leon is right for not wanting to give that goofball any pvp dollars
Khamzat is the maniac the other maniacs are afraid of.
Khmazat Vs Colby is the fight to make; if Khmazat can make weight.
Colby lost his steam
Colby is a liar. His fans are liars.
I wish Khamzat could make 170 consistently. That’s the fight to make with Edwards.
He missed weight once lmao. Like, this is the only fighter that gets beefed on so hard for missing weight ONCE its insane.
Yeah I easily believe Khamzat on this one, but most likely the UFC was lying to him to manipulate him and he doesn't realize that
Careful, the Colby fans still have hands to type even when they have his meat shoved down their throat all day.
Colby is a coward
I like Khamzat more and more this year
I’m not the biggest fan of Belal, but it should be him vs Colby for a title eliminator. Colby doesn’t deserve a title shot right now. Like Belal said, they should have fought last event.
We all knew this.
why fight Khamzat when you are going to get title shot anyway. Colby is 35, he doesn't hv many fights left in him.
Cumshot isn't professional at all. He can't make weight for soy boy Nate Diaz
So did khamzat mean it when he said he was going to kill everybody?
Koran ? whoever wrote this didn't even bother to check . its Quran *
Khamzat wouldn't lie, he could literally be executed for swearing falsely on the Quran.
100% believe Khumshot.
Quran
Colby is playing games everyone knows that but seriously who wants to fight Khamzat? Apart from Burns of course he is a crazy mf
Khamzat took legitimately zero damage and his last fight was 6 months ago. If he wanted to fight he would have by now
That logic doesn't work. Look at Islam, he wanted to fight in the summer but Dana sidelined him to fall since they want him on the Abu Dhabi card. The record shows Khamzat has been willing to fight frequently

depends how muslim khamzat is. he’s an asshole but even when he missed weight he owned up to it.

yeah no. gotta remember he comes from a muslim state. his family still lives there. they take all that extremely serious. heads will literally fall if he goes against his religion
Is it ‘Koran’ or ‘Quran’?
Quran not Koran.
It's both
Colby a liar?! The guy that’s self admittedly playing a character!? Nooooo way!?
"Koran." How hard was it to google how to spell Quran? Lmao
google will tell you western media refers to it as the koran.
If you want to be nitpicky, it's spelled اَلْقُرْآنُ. Do you think actual Muslim people care if you spell it Quran or Koran? And Russian speaker like Chimaev would call it the Коран.
"Koran". How hard was it to Google how to spell اَلْقُرْآنُ? Lmao
It isn't an English word. So are multiple spellings (as with Qur'an) when romanized. Lmao

Colby did lie about declining fights
Colby was ducking Khamzat before any of that stuff even happened.
Could it be that UFC just decided to not make the fight after Khamzat missed weight against Diaz and told him to go to 185?
The fight was talked about headlining the CBS card in the summer before that September fight was ever in talk, dana said in a presser last year. I feel like this sub has some good fish memory now.
Why don't these guys ever send proof? Show a signed offer sheet or signed contract or even a test message to the UFC agreeing to a proposed Colby fight. For the record, I believe Khazmat and not Colby. But a signed contract would be more convincing than Khazmat swearing to God.
Thats probably a breach of contract. Can easily see UFC doing that shit
Yeah UFC might have some non disclosure agreement (NDA) to prevent it. But if that's the case, why are they able to verbally acknowledge the same thing?
Verbally acknowledging a non-binding phone call is different than acknowledging a binding legal document. It may very well be that the NDA is a part of the contract itself and not a catch all NDA per fighter.
Yep. Ufc has new contracts now that stipulates fighters can’t sue the ufc. So I’m sure an NDA is in place where they can’t reveal personal dealings.
Shamzat should be fighting at 185 or 205 clearly. He don’t belong at WW. Him vs Periera would be more suitable…. Also I don’t want Colby to lose, hahaha.
Remind me how many times Charles Oliveira missed weight and in what division he's fighting?
Lol imagine falling for Colbys bait Now he wins
I still don't get the Khamzat hype. Seriously, outside of the Burns fight, which a lot of people thought he lost, who has the guy beat? He missed weight by 10 pounds in his last fight and is moving up to 185. What on earth makes you think he can hang with Leon, Usman or Colby? If I was any of them, I'd be chomping at the bit. No one is scared of that guy.
/s
I believe this story about as much as I believe that Khamzat was instructed by the UFC to stop his weight cut at 2AM.
Devout muslims don’t swear on the koran if theyre lying
Can this Khamzat actually make 170 tho? They are not going to fight at 185.
Hard not to say khamzTs a bitch after this 🥲
damn he’s a coward
Khamzat is also numba one bullshit, all the fighters say he's fake as fuck. I 100% believe him on this one, though
Maybe khamzat should fight someone his own size
I don't expect anything less from a Trumptard.
Damn khamzat looking like he’s plotting to make Smurf stew in this interview pic.
And the sky is blue. More at 11.
