Who is the worst possible matchup for Chimaev at MW?

[1BadMF]

Michel Pereira

aah...interesting matchup!

 

[NoBiasJustMMA]

No One

Couldn't smash the only 2 ranked WWs he's ever fought and I think he's going to have even tougher fights with top 15 MWs.

 

[Istryker]

Where did this myth that Bobby Knuckles is chinny come from?
One loss by TKO 10 years ago to a striking specialist, One KO loss to another striking specialist 5 years ago and one TKO to a big strong Donkey Kong in DDP last year.

Some people act like he is Chuck Liddell getting KO'd in the stand up by Tito Ortiz.

He got dropped against till and loads of others if I'm not mistaken, there's always at least one time in a fight where he takes a shot and does a dance.

 

[mattemate]

It's Bo Nickal. Khamzat is tailor made for him to destroy.

 

[filthybliss]

Strickland. Crazy press conferences and crazy tdd.

 

[Travis Alexander]

Costa smokes him.
DDP smokes him.
Cannonier smokes him.
Vettori smokes him.
Adesanya smokes him (although he has a shot).
…and Rob is GOING to smoke him.

 

[STAY GOLD]

Kham doesn't have killshot KO power.

Yeah, Ikram and GM3 are lucky he doesn’t have “killshot KO power.” Can you imagine if he did?

 

[Killer Kadoogan]

ian garry

 

[Tweak896]

Honestly feel like he'll smoke the top 5 guys but someone like Robocop is like Burns 2.0

 

[MMAProfessional]

If you don't count the guys he has KO'ed with 1 punch, he doesn't have KO power

3 punches my dude

So what you're trying to sell me right now is khamzat never KO'ed anyone with 1 punch that landed?

Also, wtf is this stillframe shit showing nothing that you posted? lol

Regardless, he clearly 1 punch KO's Gerald and no amount of bs stillframe image showing nothing will change that fact. He also 1 punch KO'ed MW Ikram Aliskerov but I am guessing since he threw more than 1 punch that fight, you don't count that as a 1 punch KO either.....

he has one punch power when he uses his technique right...
This is a one punch KO..

Whittaker has the best TDD in the top 5.
He's also got better kicks and footwork and probably gas tank too.

He's got worse chin, toughness and wrestling.

I'm unsure of boxing, power and speed.

DDP, Cannonier and Strickland have bad TDD. Well, maybe not bad, but certainly not good enough in this matchup.

So yeah, it has to be between Whittaker and Adesanya?

It's probably Whittaker really, well a prime Whittaker anyway, we'll see if he still has enough left. Rob should light him up on the feet if it stays there

 

[arcadeperfect]

Whittaker at his best should be the nightmare match up for any grappler, just watch his fights against Romero and Jacare. Costa is another difficult match up, no one beats Costa by overpowering him. DDP is another one, guy is super physical and wouldn't be easily bullied by Khamzat. After that probably Izzy, no one at MW has been able to hold Izzy down for long periods of time and he's also a master of escaping against the fence.

Khamzat vs DDP is a dog-fight I desire to see

 

[Neck&Neck]

Any fight outside of the desert

 

[flektarn]

Ddp or Sean. Ddp is a huge dude. Sean's TDD is excellent and he can just stand up if he does get taken down.

Y'all stay gassing this Sean dude .. he would get subbed very quickly by Chimaev.

DDP is interesting due to his size and pure caveman ability

Kham doesn't have slick subs. Sean has never been submitted.
It's your lie though, tell it how you want.

 

[Hdfi]

someone with good TDD, chin and KO power, so probably DDP or Adesanya.
