EDIT:

Apparently it’s a fake website

 

[Leinster Rugby]

Very interesting fight

 

[KungFuCow]

Izzy is going to get run over. He better hope he can drag it out until Khamzat gets tired.

 

[jeff7b9]

Holy shitballs.

 

[The Bloody Nine]

I hope this is true.

The battle of who I dislike more...

Izzy probably makes Khamzat look terrible.

 

[ZackZed]

About time Khamzat fights a true middleweight contender. Izzy's definitely getting mauled.

FAKE! They wouldn't be selling tickets for an event in June yet anyways, especially with a main event already lined up that far away lol.

Well duh, wouldn't they announce the fight before selling tickets for it?

 

[DarthChen731]

This reeks of #1 bullshit

 

[ArtardFiesta]

i hope it's true. make or break fight for khamzat

 

[DecisionSplit]

Tough fight for Adesanya unless it's five rounds. Doubt Chimaev can last a full fight at his usual pace.

 

[TempleoftheDog]

I’d like to see that. But as of now I call bullshit. I’m not sure either guy actually wants that fight.

It probably would’ve been someones mistake if this was legit.
Wouldn’t be the first time the PR team fumbles a huge announcement, lol.

Yeah they would... 'they' as in the UFC. Remind me of the last time UFC announced any fight 4+ months ahead of time lol.

 

[JoeRowe]

I doubt they waste Izzy or any other ppv draw opposite of Khamzat. Feels like Cannonier, Rob, Imavov, or even Fluffy would be more likely to be used on a FN.

The only reason Khamzat is in play for Saudi is because he can't get into the US and who knows how many other countries.

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Lost at Yisrael



Come on @BoxerMaurits you're better than this...
