I don't know why everyone says that he was overhyped due to this performance, to me this performance confirmed that Khamzat is a actual top guy.
He was overhyped. He really had his fangirls thinking he was going to defeat Burns in the first round with a knockout Lol 😆. Overhyped as f_ck.
@@charlietaylor7142 true.
@@charlietaylor7142 definetely a bit overhyped but look, hes a wrestler whos had 10 fights and just stood up with a no. 2 fighter and he still won. This fight will judt make him better than he already was, khamzat is not to be fucked with still
@@charlietaylor7142 tbh he almost did finish Burns in the 1st round. Not even Usman came that close.
@@marcdejong929 do you think he wins vs usman?
The shots he took from Gilbert and still remain in the fight was incredible. No idea how didn't get knocked out.
Chechen's chin.Those shots would sleep most welterweights.
Because he is still young and fresh. His chin hasn't been hit that much yet.
His chin won't be the same after those bombs. Be sure about that. No guard, Burns was landing everything in the second and third.
@@alpe6228 not because chechen, it because craziness look nate diaz tony ferguson etc
@@yuliangeorgiev Rubbish. There's no garaunteed damage. Pure speculation.
The best part for me when he said that he met Gilbert’s kids and this made the fight harder for him, it shows you that he extremely care and respect his opponents
Because he is the third prophet of Islam. He is as pure as one can be
@@vipr1142 We don’t have second to have third we don’t believe that. Prophet Muhammed peace be upon him is the last Prophet.
@@vipr1142 WTF only one prophet of Islam and its prophet Muhammed peace be upon him don't spread this misinformation
@@AJ-qq7cg Ehm no, then you haven't read the Quran. Muhammad was the first Prophet... Khabib was the second and Khamzat the third. Thats why they are all so pure and humble individuals. Alhamdullilah
@@vipr1142 Authubillah. Fear Allah SWT and read before you make such claims which can take you out of the fold of Islam. Quran 33:40: "Muḥammad is not the father of any of your men, but is the Messenger of Allah and the seal of the prophets. And Allah has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of all things." RasulAllah (SAW) is Khatam an-Nabiyyin
Wow, thats mindblowing from Khamzat. After only 4 UFC fights experience, he made it in such fashion against the #2 in the world.
what is more amazing is that he has only been doing mma for 4-5 years
Isn’t Colby the #2
@@Sumea_Saukko #1
Colby no2. He’s next on list for borg
That's what a lot of people seem to be glossing over when they're shit talking him. Like dudes he came out from nowhere and went toe to toe with Burns, friggin wow.
Man immediately criticising himself for his approach, and he’s right, he came in with the idea to just knock out burns and that wasn’t the best tactical idea. But god it was entertaining.
He was the 1st to shoot for a takedown and only came up with the idea when he realised how good Burns was on the ground
Hella respect to someone who can acknowledge truthfully where they made mistakes instead of blaming everything else
Mate I was screaming on top of my lungs "Why tf you are not using wrestling ? Why chasing his head ?!" Glad he is aware of the recklessness.
khamzat tried to take him down in rd 1 but could not so he abandoned the plan and if he does he cannot control because burns is having the one of the most insane bjj in the world . Also if burns had strong chin he would obviously koed him as he has ko power
@@jebunchoudhury7127 even if first try not success, he should just try again..
Chimaev sitting on top of the octagon waiting for Burns to come was the most savage shit I seen.
That was awesome
I was surprised too
True it was scary almost
Haha me and my boys legit said this same thing when watching.. like a predator stalking his prey.
I caught that too. Shit was scary
50,000 UFC is fucked up this man deserves a couple million no one is messing with this guy 100 percent
hes talking about the bonus, definitely got paid more still should get paid more tho lmao

@@100100freak Khamzat isn't anything like Mctapper bro
@@100100freak bro why you pocket watching 😂😂😂🤨?
Translation of the questions asked in Russian (the end of the video) “Key Khamzat, in the first round you managed to successfully wrestle with Gilbert, but later on you did not really try to take him down, why is that? Did you feel any kind of threat or your coaches set a particular goal? - “No, there was no threat for me. The initial plan was to show him some wrestling and my strength in that department so would second guess himself and allow me to beat him up easier. All in all, I wasn’t in danger. - “You dropped him with the jab first, why do you think you couldn’t finish him after that and how close do you feel you were to doing that? - “I don’t know, I don’t even remember how close I was. I recall that I dropped him and wanted to go for a finish, but then I figured that he starts swinging and I couldn’t find the target properly, that’s why I thought of allowing him to stand up and try to knock him down (out) again. It is what it is (about how it eventually went down). - “What about your interaction with Gilbert’s children, did it happen before the fight and what (how) happened? - Yeah, I met them in the hotel the day before the fight. I went down to the lobby and they were passing by and said:” oh it’s you who fights our daddy”. I was like: “oh shit, I am not really willing to see (somebody’s) children right before the fight, you know, think about his (Gilbert’s) family. I am an emotional guy and it’s hard for me to see kids at fights. I would never bring my own children to (see) fights.
thanks brother
@@Sebastian.Ciobanu brotha*
You can see that Khamzat's English speaking abilities have greatly improved by being with Darren Till.
And you can even hear the slight scouse accent coming through. Love it🤣
Doubt hanging out with a scouser would improve anyone's English😂
@@brummagem9038 scousers have the best accent in the UK. if you disagree, go argue with a wall mate
@@C20WKR ain't their accent that's the issue, its their vocabulary mate😜. Some nice people nevertheless
What are you talking about? It is easier to understand Khamzat English than Till.
He had only 10 fights, and he faces NO.2 in the UFC. He won and he’s coming back stronger !!!
Gilbert got robbed, Khamzat won't get passed Usman
yep. but I do understand what some of the idiots that are calling him a bad fighter are on, somewhat. he looked human and he's no khabib. and he's certainly no Jon jones of old. maybe he could reach their levels in the future or surpass them. but as it is right now, I don't see him beating usman at all.
@@nate8133 ‘past’
He's not competitive verse Usman.
Burns is khamzat 11th mma fight, who has khabib beaten in his 11th mma fight???
7:13 You can see that he actually believe every words he said. That's one of the greatest thing a MMA fighter ever said in a post-fight press conference. A 7 years old kid did a better mind game on him that any fighters before.
He says he dont care but that obviously is not the case cuz he wants everyone to see h as the warrior he so he does actually care. I just wish he would say what he shows. He took some killer shots from burns and showed us his metal. I cant wait till that one guy comes along and beats him if nothing more than making him show how much he really does care. I think it is really just how his English translates. He, chimaev, has such a smooth game especially in his transitioning. He is very relaxed when he's fighting it just looks like it's always been just a natural thing for him, ( his fighting ability that is. )
The fact he took some good ones on the chin and still came forward the way he did! He really is who he says he is! Looking forward to the next big test! Colby vs Khamzat is going to be crazy!!
I actually liked what he said about Gilbert’s kids, how it made him feel bad… there’s some real heart under the crazy, liking him more and more!!
Stockholm syndrome in effect
Bumzat. Hype train in scrap yard
@@fakevirus8828 ? Casual. Gilberts one of the best
khamzat did well but i wouldve given the 3rd to burns. hell i wouldve given 1 to burns if he didnt get sat down by that jab
What did he say about the kids
My favorite part is when he say he don’t care about being famous and just happy he got his money, mindset on point 🙏

@@hoodoo457 down astronomically, love her MMA reactions tho lol
'I don't need to fight with some daddy I need a killer like me' And there ya have it folks. Khamzat is a gentleman. Seeing Gilberts kids made him think about Gilbert. Made it difficult to want to hurt him even though they both tried to kill each other. Both warriors
What? Lol if he’s effected by that shit hies in the wrong busniess. You’re reading too far into the comment. He was absolutely going all out to hurt Gilbert.
lol just about to say this
@@allstopblue5717 'effected by that shit' You mean just being a human with good principles? Not wanting to harm some kids father? Grow up.
@@allstopblue5717 all fighters are effected by it, this isnt a savage sport these dudes are still humans. But alot of young fans think its some savage shit, thats just for PR. If all fighters went "full out" there would be deaths

I’m still in awe of what I witnessed. This fight was historic !!
Underneath all the psycho shit, you can tell this dudes a good guy, he just loves what he does, big respect to him, hope he gets the title eventually, made me a big fan after this one.
The psycho shit is fake he got dropped
I think you all get attached to fighters too much. You want them to be killers but be nice guys too and say the perfect things. Shit gets corny… with your comments I mean. And shit I’m not excluding myself. We mma fans are contradictory.
He is not a good guy. Dont get fooled. Chechens were considered most dishonest people the soviet union.
"i love you Gilbert im just trying to make my money" yeah real psycho
Yeah no shit bro lmao. I thought it was evident from the get go that he's a genuine and good guy
He just cares about his money. Got 50gs , go home eat with family. Classic. Respect
💯
Apparently that is a bonus-a popular line that Conor uses
We all care about money brother 😝
as he fucking should.
What is 50gs?
"What kind of topping on the pizza ?" "Smash everything brotha."
Respect to him you can tell he’s just pissed it was so close but he’s humble about it tho and does it for the love of the sport and the bag 💯
Reminds me a bit of Izzy vs gastelum where Izzy was tested to the limit and after that fight completely changed his approach to fighting. If Khamzat and his team learn from this then they can fight smarter
Facts
Ohh....yesss🙌🙌🙌💯
Genius 👍🙏
Jones had Gustafsson, Khabib had Tibau, Izzy had Gastelum I think from this point he can only improve even further.
@@samuraibirds917 agreed
He needed a proper battle, to face proper power and he still overcomes it and comes out the winner. This guy is here for a long time.
Oh shut up. He lost the fight on account of damage. He got the decision because he's popular. That's all. To give a #11 fighter a fight with #2 fighter itself was a big chance. Khamzat needs to sit down and fight more fighters in Top 10.

Don't forget he's a wrestler and stand up all the time pressuring and take the shots not being knockout he's phenomenal man and gilbert is the real deal for welterweight 🤛💪
Somewhat agree, but remember Gilbert is a grappler aswell and against Usman Chimaev needs to stand up as well probably
Y’all says he was well rounded now all I’m hearing is he’s not a striker stfu
@@christophcrs8472 but he has far more experience than khamzat so khamzat is not all the hype
Khamzat dropped Gilbert in the first round as well. Not even Usman could do that
Except Usman wasn’t going back and forth with burns, he pieced him apart and knocked him out
Khamzat Chimaev proving he is the real deal. However, at this stage he cannot beat Usman.
He was sloppy
Agreed, hes still very young and hasn't hit his prime yet. Everyone in top 5 is 30 years or older. But who knows maybe he's that gifted. All top 5 guys should be interesting matchups for him though.
I disagree, this fight will add to his experience.. Burns also rocked Usman many times, Khamzats ground and pound beats Usman
Maybe, but he getting better with every fight.
@Adam Williamson I agreed with this statement. Usman almost got slept by Gilber in the first round.
Didn’t think I could like this guy more than I already did. What a legend
He’s going to comeback hungrier and more disciplined next fight. This was the type of war he needed to grow
KHABIB vs Gileson tibao
i 100% agree he already knows what to do next time he got tested and boy did he prove everyone rigjt
@@brandonchutt312 Like how Islam Mackachev went downhill after his TKO loss?
Bumzat under Tills coaching will become a laughing stock in a few fights. Burns won
If keeps hanging out with Till he'll get knocked out
So happy for him, an inexperienced fighter that had the balls to go after number two and fight his heart out. Fan for life.
7:08 one of the realest moments from khamzat ever that shit was deep on so many levels this guy so respectful and scary great at the same time
I think its great Kahmzat tells everybody what his coach was telling him about slowing it down and not trying to take his head off, he is so deadly and I cant wait to see him fight again!
Jones had Gustafsson Adesanya had Gastelum Khamzat had Burns and we will see whats next for him
Those examples were five round title fights....
@@sarcasticgenius8563 I was just about to say that 🤣
@@sarcasticgenius8563 doens't matter
Khabib had Tibau
Exactly, i remember when Adesanya almost lost to Gastelum everyone was counting him out, like we hould never beat the likes of Romero, Whittaker or Costa. People still doesnt realize that MMA maths doesnt work and a fight can just change completely in a single moment by a single strike. If anything that was a tough match up for Khamzat cause he was afraid to use his biggest weapon against Burns which is wrestling and Gilbert is no joke as well, in papers Colby should be an easier match up for khamzat, as for Usman we don't know yet.
Khamzat seems like a wise/humble guy at his core. He obviously has a big ego but somehow balances it with a dose of reality
You have to have a big ego and full belief in yourself to be at this level in the game

He beat Gilbert in a striking match even though his greatest strength is wresting, that is terrifying
Its not worth tangling with Gilbert. His bjj is too good.
Dont forget that burns is a grapler too, not a striker, but khazmat showed chin
@@adamhsr Gilbert is dangerous on the ground but Khamzat said in an interview after the fight that he wanted to show off his striking, so he didn’t avoid grappling because he thought it was too risky he just wanted to display some striking. He was clearly the bigger and stronger guy, took Gilbert down and defended every one of Gilbert’s takedown attempts, he would have smashed him on the ground, too big and dominant.
@@jonh5802 For sure, before the fight Gilbert said when two great grapplers fight they sometimes just want to stand up. They already understand and respect each other’s ground game so why not have some fun and bang on the feet, I think that was their mentality.
@@angusyoung4488 no..he would lose..he jus got purple belt..he knows on ground wat happen
Man, Khamzat is so likable and that fight made me like him even more.
This fight was good for him. Both shows how hard he needs to work to be able to get through Colby and then Usman as well as giving him thee chance to show his heart and how he can hang with the best. Giving me Izzy vs Gasteleum vibes and how Izzy was tested before he went to win the belt.
He didn’t get exposed as hype train, he got exposed to the next level of competition
Colby will do a smesh on him
And still won crazy huh?
he was exposed as hype train when he got exposed to the next level of competition*
He certainly got exposed as human
He was definitely exposed as a hype train, stop worshiping fighters before they become a defending champion.
If you look at the anatomy of Gilbert you realise how tough khamzat is to defeat Gilbert at this level. Khamzat is insanely tough🔥
Ya, we were all so used to his quick fights but insane to see him go head to head with #2 and have to fight all 3 rounds
Legit athlete , composed and respectful , insane chin and great cardio. More take downs next time but if it was 5 rounds he knocks Gilbert out.
It’s hard to not like him. Respect is earned and he earned it today! Loved the fight!!! Modern gladiators
Khamzat’s jab is a thing of beauty. What an epic fight that was.
Yeah and he was actually switching stances
@@momogotgame5048 that was crazy because that is such a hard skill.
His jab is like a brick he was stinging Gilbert with them all fight long he’s definitely powerful but he definitely needs a little refinement
@@thegirafflewaffle1888 I think he just underestimate him and threw his game plan away his coach was yelling at him at the end of the second round
@@momogotgame5048 his coach was screaming (sort of) "why do you brawl with him, are you stupid? Don't fucking brawl with him" When Khamzat was calm he out boxed Burns, but from time to time he just went in swinging brawling (and Burns like that, meaning that put Khamzat in a disadvantage)
The guts to go all in trying to knock no.2 ranked guy 🥶 even though he could take play safe but still he chooses to stand up 🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍👑
How could he have played it safe? Take him down? He tried? Not engage? When he wasn't coming forward Gilbert was
@@smackdoe3626 he barely used his wrestling so he didn’t follow the game plan set in the beginning. Also his coach was yelling at him after the first round because he wasn’t following his plan just trying some unnecessary knockout shot against an experienced veteran
Kind of hard to execute your ground ge plan against a multiple BJJ champion, who'd have thunk it?
@@tezsal1501 follow a plan where you get submited by jiu jitsu guy. Yeah sounds like a great plan
@@smackdoe3626 ?? gilbert failed all of his takedown attempts, and had no ring control. Have you even watched the fight or just the highlights?? Khamzat constantly pressed him down. And he did manage to have some successful top ground control…
Big respect to this Guy . Khamzat 🙌🏼🙌🏼🔥🔥🔥
Khamzat just proved that he’s one of the top dogs of the game. But this fight made me love the will of Gilbert to endure and fight back. Love him
This was valuable cage experience for him, but he probably regrets not staying more measured and technical when Burns lured him into a brawl. There were a lot of shots he ate that would've put out lesser men.
FACTS!
Gilbert Is a beast, he hit khamzat like Joe rogan said, he hit him as hard as someone can, khamzat has a chin damn!!.
hes young , give him 3-4 more fights like this one and that chin is gonna soften 100%

I think Burnes was at his best last night. He is not one no 3 without reason
Khamzat makes me laugh - he's so funny and genuine. Love this guy.
He’s been training MMA only for 5 years, he fought 5 times in 2 years and he just won an absolute dog fight against the number 2 in the world.
How can he be exposed when he was ranked 11 and just beat burns the number 2 he proved he has a chin , heart and his wrestling is elite he has areas he has to work on but he has a promising future
You gonna act like people were making him out to be invincible? Like he could run through Burns, Colby and Usman in one night? The disrespect was unreal. So yes, he was exposed.
@@luckytokin Not just the fans, but even Chimaev hismelf. Chimaev was talking like he was some sort of once in a lifetime fighter. Anything short of an early stoppage would make him look foolish lol. So no he didn't prove himself in this fight. He proved that he is not hype, but he also proved that he is a good fighter, not worthy of disrespecting champs and legends.

Dude has won it and will come back even stronger! RESPECT!
@Mark Asread lol he won and haters still say he didnt, reality deniers 😂. Burns is way better than colby and khamzat on the ground too, infact hes probably one of the best in the world. Khamzat is reslly good on the ground but not as good as burns (which is why he didnt get on the ground as much this match), khamzat would eat colby on the ground easily
Had he not wasted most of his energy in the first round on trying to "take his head off" - to try to go through him like he did with Li and others - he would've won all 3 rounds, easily. So don't underestimate Khamzat based on this fight. He is still a very dangerous man.
This fella is going to the top. After last night and hearing him in this interview.. no doubt. God speed. Great fight. Gilbert is a badass dude.
THIS AS*88HOLE KHAMZAT CHIMAEV FINALLY GOT HIS AS"''S KICKED REALLY BAD.....BURNS SHOULD OF WON TONITE.....
One thing we learn this fight is that Khamzat has a chin, he has heart, and he has no fear. he is a problem even for Usman.
He just needs to be more calculated and he'll achieve anything he wants. He's not even in his prime yet
@@kingk7884 exactly
And we ALSO learned he isn’t the king that he is Not superhuman or he can finish everyone and he is not a future three division champion who can walk through everybody or the best fighter ever to get into the octagon. So no more Hype train and no more of his delusional trash talk. 😄
@Saad Sandhu he has the right mindset to get to the point of fighting for ww belt. He is 27 and really fresh in the game. So I wouldn't say he will be lucky if he get the belt. Cause in the near future he will be the champ if he keep his head down and work.
@UCwW5IUTD-F-YyicHu-V1_mA exactly
I think khazmat made me more of a fan tonight than before honestly😂. Even though it was a close fight he was willing to risk everything and trash his game plan just to get a headline knockout and feed the fans what they want. That is pure entertainment and fans love it!! Even he took HUGE hits he didn’t give af kept pushing forward and said keep it going.
This narrative has to stop. Khamzat didnt take burns down because 1. he couldnt, he really tried and mostly failed in round 1 And 2. he quickly realised he cant roll with burns, who has a superior submission game than him. People keep making shit up to try and make up for the fact that this dude, while a legit contender, will probably never touch that belt until usman and colby retire. And we still have to see what leon is capable of.
@@xZZTop it sounds like daddy didn’t love you and whooped your ass for years and now you’re taking it all on us. Lmao
@@xZZTop but he took him down in the first round , just didn't wanted to fight burns on the ground
@@xZZTop bro you to have realize this is his 4th fight in WW and first “main” event fight against the 2nd best WW in the world. He almost finished burns in the end of first round with that jab but Burns brought it back in the 2nd round. As a rational fan I see the potential in khazmat to be the best in his division,he has all the tools. But a performance like tonight won’t beat usman or Israel just yet. He will only get better and better and maybe next year he will become that level. Right now Colby and him is the match to make to see if he learned from his mistakes in this fight.
@@FunWithHJ_ And i explained why he didnt want to fight him on the ground in my post. I was only saying that ops take of ,, oh he didnt smesh him on the ground cause he wanted to give fans a show" is a load of bull. He didnt smash burns on the ground like his other opponents simply because he couldnt, not because he didnt want to.
That is a fight for the ages. Absolute warriors.
I love how he doesn't care about rankings and fame etc. He does this because he loves the sport....nice thing to see compared to the McGregors. A true athlete. The interviewers didn't get that he does it because he likes the sport.
His problem was that he didn't listen to his coach. If he had listened, he would have thrown himself more into wrestling and controlled things after the first round. From there, he could have played Khabib style, just stayed on top of his opponent, and won at the end of round 3 just because he controlled the match, and no one would have had anything to comment on. Khamzat didn't want that, he wanted to take the whole fight standing, because he underestimated Gilbert, and wanted to prove that he's not like Khabib, and that he can stand vs such monsters without fear..
Доказал же
khamzat tried to take him down in rd 1 but could not so he abandoned the plan and if he does he cannot control because burns is having the one of the most insane bjj in the world . Also if burns had strong chin he would obviously koed him as he has ko power

Agreed, you could clearly tell, he could’ve taken Gilbert down and smashed him but decided to stand up and fight
@@valentemedina5102 lol
@@valentemedina5102 lol don’t be delusional now
@@valentemedina5102 nah, he changed his mind because he felt threatened by Burns jiu jitsu.
Absolutely incredible fight! Hope khamzat learns from this experience- you can tell from his demeanour and what he said that he underestimated burns and seems more relieved than excited that he got the victory
His coaches were freaking the FUCK OUT in round 2
He will come back stronger … if a ‘rough diamond’ beat the number 2 then that says it all
He knows deep in his heart that he lost
Mythical zoan fruit gang
He lost
People acting like Khamzat lost, Yo the dude won! People mad cos he didn't finish burns, Burns is a savage
Burns went to the hospital this kid didn't wow
Khamzat is my favorite UFC fighter to date. With you all the way Champ 🙏👊
He is the real deal man big respect
Amazing fight. And amazing for Khamzat. I love how honest he was about where he messed up. Yeah he was super excited lol to get in there and knock out burns. Also, I’m glad he experienced this because it’s new data and experience for him.
He believed his own hype. He really thought he was going to go in that octagon and knock out Burns or submit him in one round Lol. He got humbled tonight.
@@charlietaylor7142 humbled is wromg word this guy had only 4 fights in unexperiences en fought against a rank 2 and won . He humbled gilbert and the world
@@biggibawz3897 he surely underestimated Burns, Khamzat is very good, but just come in the octagon smashing the top of division isn't the reality
@@charlietaylor7142 glad he got humbled. Expecting a better Khamzat in the future, if he fights smart he's gonna be unstoppable
RESPECT BROTHER , good to see your humble side and respect towards opponents
this was just a humbling fight for him, he knows what the comp is now. he took his mistakes with no ego and understood where he went wrong. hes gonna learn from this and be more technical and not have his emotions take over (like in round 2 when he was being impatient and just trying to "smash" him.)
IF HE IMPROVES THE STRIKING THIS MAN IS GONNA BE DANGEROUS CAN’T WAIT FOR HIS NEXT FIGHT 🔥
He has great striking. He just got pulled into the bang energy by Burns.
@@tobymattana5320 bang?🤭
Oh shut up. He got his ass beat by Burns.
@@tobymattana5320 Well defensively he ate too many shots and threw wild but of course he was trying to smash his face off 😂
@@wyattgathje7925 Let me bang bro 😭
With only 10 fights in MMA such a great performance against such a great athlete. Massive respect. Keep it goin‘ my brother 🔥
The level of Humility in his Victory. Just when you think you cant like someone more. @Papa Lee
After this week & fight i got hella respect for Khamzat. He’s not one of these cocky ass guys he just watched Mcgregor turn himself into a star and took notes on what gets the people going and he trains his ass off to back up everything. He’s humble & does it for his family & love for the sport 😤🤞🏽
Dude fought his heart out and casuals are salty that he didn't ran through gilbert. All he said to this point was I smash everybody(which everyone does) and people took the hype to the moon. He is a talented fighter but needs to grow slowly and gain experience.
Looll y'all forgot about the guy who was going to KO Burns in 1 round and the one that was going to beat Usman and smesh them all? Yes , he is a warrior since he defeated a high level fighter like Burns. But the hype is gone
@@nzengueddy9251 a guy with 4 fights just beat the #2 guy and you think the hype is gone? Delusional lol
@@clb5119 it is. You're the delusional one. Burns won
@@nzengueddy9251 anyone that thought he is going to ran through gilbert is either a casual that doesn't know much about this sport or just went with their emotions because they wanted to believe that unbeatable monsters exist. In my opinion this is a positive for khamzat because it was inevitable and sooner is better than later. He is just 27 and not even in his prime, he can learn a lot from this fight. And by the way fuck the hype train, who cares.
@@nzengueddy9251 11-0 hype is continue. Usman rapidly arranging his retirement. Borz is coming
This man is built differently. He is extremely humble as well. Bright future!
He ain't Usman.
@@haaatski I bet u wished that he would loose
Humble? Talking all that shit before every fight, until he started getting rocked and knew top 5 is completely different than the bums he beat until now, end of round 2 he could of easily been knocked out if it lasted 15 more seconds, more like he got humbled!
@@IroonieLA yea man he is always humble. Only reason he runs his mouth is to promote fights and make people talk about himself he literally said many times Conor inspired him and he tries to work the same formula on the mic. That is it.
He ain't humble at all.
Khamzat has a great heart. In all meanings.
The ufc has come so far with its state of the art press conference rooms. The sound is amazing you can hear really well
That fight showed just how Special Khabib really was. Dude never bled
Yes some truth behind this and not at the same time, one khabib never fought the same type of competition this guy has in such a short time, it took khabib years to do what he has done this guy in less than 2 years so think about your comment again lol
What are you even saying they don’t even fight the same…. Khamzat has a 10x fan friendly style
Khabib is undisputed
Burns is more dangerous than all the guys Khabib fought in his career.
do not compare bradas, they both are giant already did something crazy and shocking bradas ! but only one the different, khamzat still got time to prove more and improve
He couldn't do his E-game but really showed his class besides lots of respect for Durinho!!!
Champions are that in their minds long before. They demonstrate it when talking. Big Khamzat.
I was there in person and watched this fight I will remember this fight for the rest of my life!
Reasons why khamzat lived up to the hype. 1. Came out of no where and hung with #2 in the world, not having fought a ranked fighter before. 2. Damn near finished burns in the first round like he dis everyone els he fought. He let him get up. 3. He’s 28 so has some years to improve. When a fighter reaches 35 we’ve seen the hight of there capabilities. Not much changes after that. Usman, Colby, and Burns are all 35 or approaching. 4. Got a taste what it felt like to go through a battle, now his coaches have a lot of material to work with they didn’t have before, for improving khamzat
Li was ranked 11th why do ppl keep saying this lmaooo
True there is still a great amount of room for him to improve. He will only get better
Bumzat looked average AF. Burns won.
@@icecoldfire25 how do you know he will get better? He trains with Till. The biggest bum in the ufc
The hype was Khamzat 5-1 favorite. By that standard he didn’t live up to the hype.
This guy has beaten a higher ranked fighter than Covington ever did.
Colby was the p4p champ hardest test
@@commentgod2175 exactly,"test", he didn't won any of two fights
@@heisenberg3457well he actually won the second fight, and after seeing how these judges scored yan vs sterling tonight its no surprise they always have their heads up their asses
@@wheresbebo in my opinion second fight was more draw than Colby's win, but I will say it again, Colby didn't won any of this fights
Colby beat Usman according to Colby, lol. And he is champ. Can't get higher rated than that
This fight ended the khamzat hype and raised much more level of respect for Khabib, he was the man of his own league never taken down, never dropped, never cut, never tired what a legend he was.. mad respect for him..
We don’t care
Thats the goat
Get off khabib 🥜
Lmao 🤡
Khabib fought nobodys in his first 10 fights
I was concerned about Khamzat’s untested chin, especially with a tough weight cut….he passed that test with flying colors.
Humility is key. He’ll be great one day
He will definitely learn and grow from this. Can’t wait for his next fight!
One day? He is great.
@@CodyVella His perception of himself far out weighs his legacy. It will take time. He is good but not great by definition.
Unbelievable, props to both warriors. Gotta love the fight game, cheers my fellow fight fans 🍻
about Khamzat Chimaev coach, swedish is my first language and his coach is saying " slåss inte med han, förstår du!?" = "don't fight with him, do u understand!". khamzat said after the fight that he didn't follow their plan and wasted a lot of energy early. i think he will grow from this fight, it was a good challenge for him!
Imagine how good he will be in a year!
“Do you think you knock [Colby] out?” Khamzat: “of course.” 😂 savage
He meant that shit
@@Os_-tw4ot He also "meant it" when he said he'd kill Burns...
@@Os_-tw4ot Khamzat got knocked down by burns 3 times. Usman and colby will kill him ez pz
@@ved7816 usman got knocked down by burns too
@@19plus20 Only once and after that we all know what happened and usman never gases out unlike khamzat who gassed out in rd 2. Usman got better chin, better cardio and more power. Khamzat couldn't even finish glass jaw burns, no way can he finish colby and usman
"I wanna do something, you know, kick somebody, to make money" -Chimaev
as he should
THIS AS*88HOLE KHAMZAT CHIMAEV FINALLY GOT HIS AS"''S KICKED REALLY BAD.....BURNS SHOULD OF WON TONITE.....
His honesty and loyalty to Darren Till you can see and hear in his voice is real. That says a lot about Khamzat as a person. Seems like a very humble guy. Can admit he deviated from his game plan and will come back better next time. Better than beating the #2 WW in the world is scary! LOL
im glad he knows what he did and is being a good sport about it he says he needs to fight smarter next time even though he won its easy to get carried away with victory but he didnt great win chimaev
Beating a number 2 ranked guy so early in your career is an amazing feat, this performance shows he could hang with them, hype aside he wouldn’t be a favourite.
