Fair enough, I think Kelvin could win as well. But Kelvin doesn't deserve the fight anymore, he has to work his way back up. Dolidze is a good next fight for him.
You can't just pull out a fight, let that opponent climb to the top of the division and then try to book it again. That's weak. Dricus has put in the work and deserves a top 5 guy.
Kelvin may have heavy hands but he hasn't had a KO finish in 6 years and 8 fights, and the last one was against a blind Bisping who shouldn't have even been allowed to fight since he was finished by GSP less than a month prior. On top of that, the only two wins KG has had in that time span were two contentious decisions against Chris Curtis and Ian Heinisch, guys that are borderline top 15 at best. I get the talent may seem on Kelvin's side, but Sean is the better MMA fighter hands down.Strickland has 0 power in his pillow fist. Gastelum has iron chin ,heavy hands , gave Izzy a tough match. He's way better than Strickland .

Styles make fights. He also got dropped 4 times in that fight. Kinda just speaks to how much Izzy has dominated his other opponents, that someone could hang there hat on a fight were they got dropped that many times.Yet he gave Izzy what of his hardest fights ever.
Lmao..Figgy would get murdered lol.
Not if Kelvin reaches top 10 at HW first!!

I do agree that Sean would have lost that fight pretty easy, but again, style make fightsYup and that's why I said he had an iron chin. Strickland would've been ko in one round.
