Anyone who saw Chimaev vs Burns fight should see that this is a dangerous fight for Chimaev.
its good test for him though, finaly getting a serious MW contender.
If we talking about potential, i agree, but i would argue the distance is not that far.
but currently people are calling him to be included in the England Squad. If he is the same level as Skipp currently,Thats mean there are many England midfielder who is better than him.
Well, he has dominated the division for a long time and Izzy vs DDP was the fight that suppose to happened.
There isn't really an obvious contender for DDP to fight anyway.
TJ vs Barao was a special one, at that time Barao was invincible, no one thought TJ could beat him and he was not the number 1 Contender. TJ ended up not just beating Barao, but outclassed him.
I Miss the day when contender who deserve title shot (Like Merab) actually got one.
back then there are maybe some underserved title shot and people who deserve it, didn't get one, but its not as bad as these day.
you almost expect good contender to not get title shot.
There aren't many Pro Kickboxer that has make successful transition to MMA, Adesnya and Perreira are the most recent name but that only two names.
I think what we see instead is grapplers are getting better at striking, that is why many UFC Championship are won by striking, but Grapplers still...
I Think Whittaker beats everyone you put one that list, and im the biggest Sonnen fan there is ( Look at my AV)
Like I said, im not saying Adesanya is better than Prim Silva, i only stated that he fought tougher competition.
Okay.... Let me ask this one question
Do you think that Sean Strickland win against Adesanya strengthen or weaken the argument that DDP wouldve beat Adesanya ?
Do i think Izzy surprass Silva in p4p all times middleweight rangking ? no.
But you gotta admit, its hard to compare apple to apple, Izzy fought way harder competition.
With so many 100 mill U23 talent floping, will that drop the price of prospect in the future
Mudryk, Sancho, Anthony, Canceido (possibly)
Meanwhile Spurs sign Pape for under 20 mill, and he looks like better signing than all of them.
