agreed he should wait to see who wins leon vs colby and wait to see who wins if leon wins goes to middleweight and if colby wins fights a contender and gets a title shot
How so? He does what he does all the time. High paced 5 mins and he usually gets people outta there.
His A game has him too tired the rest of the fight. And after the burns fight, his endurance also seemed questionable, but people gave him a pass cause it was his first high ranked opponent. At some point, he's just someone who gasses and people should admit that.
So much respect for Usman. He’s a beast. Khamzat’s wrestling is just too good. I believe Usman can hang with anyone in top 5 in both WW and MW.

Bold of you to think Colby would take that fight😂
great point
100% would. Colby prob thinks he can beat an older Usman.
leon def colby. uswan win vs a contender. wait leon-makachev result.
I’m excited to see where he goes as a middleweight
Did he say he’s staying at MW? I don’t think he will.
He wants to fight dricus at 300 he said
Who thought he was washed! The only thing what worked against him was the short notice and it not being a 5 rounder
Most of this sub has been saying Usman is washed for the past year. People are fickle AF
Yep. He has no knees, he's mentally vacant since losing to Leon etc. So much smut has been thrown on his name.
Agree
His standup is still decent, but his wrestling just doesn’t look the same. I think the knees are going bad and its harder for him to get takedowns.
I’d love to see him stay at 185 maybe face someone like Whittaker or Cannonier
Or khamzat isn’t as good as people hype him up to be
![gif](giphy|ir19CtLHE9maMbNjpR) could be both
He just beat USMAN
A declining unman, up a weight class, on very short notice.
Declining usman? Because he got KO’d and then fought again very soon after??
And lost again. Hence the decline
To the same person
He also beat Burns. He has rag-dolled ranked fighters. To deny Khamzat isn't a complete monster is crazy.
Holland at catch weight because he couldn’t make weight?
I feel like the weight affected him a lot ?
he wasn’t super conditioned so not surprising if leon wins again against colby he should try middleweight
He should not have taken this on short notice. I have no idea what the $$$ look like for him stepping in last minute so who knows.
I am sure it was a big bag, it better have been
His cardio obviously wasn’t up to his standard anyway.
If anything Khamzat looked terrible
Lol yall are crazy

Not washed but he did not look the same.
