Israel Adesanya vs Khamzat Chimeav

Israel Adesanya vs Khamzat Chimeav might be the most interesting fight possible for Izzy. Chimeav is on an incredible streak and is still unbeaten. One the feet both are great and Chimeav has the wrestling base to really test Izzy.

Chimeav is on fire and seems to be the next big ticket. If he can get another big win and do it the way he’s done he might get the next shot versus Adesanya. In the fight Isreal Adesanya vs Khamzat Chimeav who would you favor?

Izzy would get smoked when taken down IMO

Probably the worst match up for Izzy that I can think of

I’d like to see Khamzat vs Alex Pereira. Khamzat would be motivated to do a number on Alex who handed Israel his last kickboxing defeat.

Izzy is lucky his division lacks grapplers

Chimaev has the type of style to run right through him.

I think Usman is the better fight, but I’d love to see both. Khamzat just could be the real Nigerian nightmare

Yep but it’s almost always been that way. 185 has mainly been run by strikers

Dude is on different level, well at least in striking, he rly could be the next “the spider” Silva, i think he has that matrix factor, so fluent…
If anyone thinks yzzi can be next anderson silva? Nop, never too “robotic”
Alex Pereira is next big thing if he survives wrestlers
Its bless to watch him fight
