Islam Makhachev: I can beat Leon Edwards anywhere

Too bad for him there will be a different champ at WW by then. Colby v. Islam will be a great fight

Anywhere in the world?

Anywhere in the cage. Anywhere in the fight

Striking. Grappling. Wrestling. Submissions. Etc.

I was being facetious. Obviously no one believes he could out strike Edwards

Nate did it. And no one thought Islam could stand with Volk but he more than held his own

Lol Nate didn’t out strike him you goof. He landed one punch at the end of the fight and didn’t follow up when Edwards was hurt.

Islam has average striking at best. Edwards hits a lot harder and is bigger than Volk.

Islam outstruck Charles on the feet. Hurt him and finished him in the ground. Leon’s much larger and more dangerous as a result, but seeing what I saw from Islam against what everyone believed to be the most dangerous striker at 155, I wouldn’t put it past him to hang with Leon in the exchanges before shooting for TDs.

Leon is a better striker than Charles too. He’s not going to out strike Leon. Not that it matters, we all know Islam wouldn’t stand for 5 rounds anyways

I want to see it now tho I just don’t think it’ll happen soon enough. They both defend their belts before talks of any matchup at 170.

I wouldn’t mind seeing it either. Islam’s grappling is phenomenal.

Just my opinion but he surpasses Khabib if he moves up and wins a belt.

I’d like to see him get at least get 3 title defenses before moving up

Fight Charles again, assuming he beats him fight the BMF belt winner. That’d be 3 defenses just like khabib

Then he should totally go up in weight if that’s what he really wants

If Islam got tired and couldn’t get takedowns on Leon the longer the fight goes it’s game over for him

Here’s a thought

How about instead of fighting 45 or 70’ers

YOU FUCKING DEFEND THE BELT IN UR OWN FUCKING WEIGHT CLASS YOU ISLAMIC GOAT FUCKER

Your father is Ur grandfather, Ur mother is Ur sister

Retard fuck
