Chimaev...we have 3 fights to look at. One of them lasted like 20 seconds. So. there isn't a full five minutes of tape to see of Chimaev. In all three fights, he just killed the other guy.

I'm guessing Burns would like a bit more than 5 minutes of film. Especially when there's nothing to see except ass whooping's.
 
“Usman almost handicapped, brother,” Chimaev said in an interview with Daniel Cormier.

“His knees doesn’t work, his back hurts, his arm hurts, operation everywhere. The guy is too old, and he’s too slow. They wanna find a way to make money and go away from my way.

“I hope Kamaru will be there in his (Burns) corner, you know? Like talking, help him for training camp and some sh*it,” Chimaev said. “I hope he will be there. So when I knock (Burns) out, I’m gonna go to (Usman), ‘Jump in, you are next.’ So I can beat them both, same night.”

:dhd:

Israel, I think he will fight me. I don’t think the guy is scared. That guy is gonna fight with me, and I will fight the guy, as well. But this is not my level, that guy. He gives his back to this guy (Whittaker) who never did wrestling in UFC, never took somebody down.”

I can take that belt today,” Chimaev said. “Just send me location where is Usman, where is Israel. I’m gonna go and smash them both. I don’t know what the UFC is gonna do. I’m ready. I said it from my first fight: I come here to take my belt. I’m still saying that after my fights.”

Chimnaev is a beast.

Why Gilbert Burns accepted no-win situation vs. Khamzat Chimaev

Fighting Chimaev is a means to an end for Burns.

At BetMGM, Burns is a +400 underdog to Khamzat Chimaev, making Burns the second-biggest underdog on the card.

“I can’t figure that stuff out,” Burns said, chuckling. “I don’t get it.”

Chimaev is the flavor of the month in MMA, and his fight with Burns is the one that has UFC officials hoping the pay-per-view numbers may hit seven figures.

“A lot of questions will be answered Saturday,” Burns said. “We'll see. I think he's very, very tough. A lot of respect to the guy. He’s been finishing the competition, like, very good, you know? He been making a big statement every time that he step into the Octagon. But now we level up. Now, we're going to the top two in the world, and we'll see. We'll see if the guy is going to become another Conor McGregor, or is going to be an easy knockout. We’ll see.”
 
@DJ @Peter Gozintite Are you guys considering betting any dogs on this card? I like Burns at these odds. I also think the Sterling/Yan fight could go either way and those odds are crazy. though I'll still think Yan wins, at those odds, that fight is still a dog or pass, so I wouldn't put real money on it.

Chimaev Burns ... Holy fuck. Great fight.
 
I forgot about olenik getting his 60th win last night against a joker is who is half his age. Another great fight. And this one ended like a story book. Good on this man for tuffing out a fight like this.




You guys missed a hell of a show last night.
 
Check out Oleynik teach Vandera the choke hold he submitted him with. They can't speak a common language, but they get it done.
