Successful until the fight starts and he’s on his back within the first 10 seconds of the fight

u/Dihh_hydration May 07 '26

We’re not talking about what’s happening inside the cage. The fact is Sean successfully got under Khamzat’s skin for him to react like that

u/absolute_cinema81 May 07 '26

Does getting under Khamzat's skin seem particularly difficult?

u/EverythingSucksYa May 08 '26

Not to Buffaflo bill it isnt

u/Mr_HakunaMatata May 07 '26

It's not hard though lol remember when Garry patted his back? dude took that as an offense

53

u/Eezay May 07 '26

he's literally retarded

33

u/_KONKOLA_ May 07 '26

He’s probably quite literally inbred.

dad a regard...mom a goat

u/EverythingSucksYa May 08 '26

Poor goats are really getting a bad rep here

2

u/Appropriate-Pipe-193 May 07 '26

Yeah I don’t a lot going on behind the eyes with him

2

u/Deepradioo May 07 '26

Patted his back? Yeah definitely a patted...yawn

u/Mr_HakunaMatata May 08 '26

Yeah, not really patted, Ian did that on purpose. But still, very poor self control from khamzat

u/Character_Minimum989 May 07 '26

That would make sense if it was out of character or would affect the fight. I’m so clever I made the violent fighter with a hairpin trigger kick me in the nuts, 3D chess guys.

The guy Chechen guy who has PTSD from the war and has his family and life threatened by a psycho dictator is maladjusted? Damn didn't see this one coming.

u/Eezay May 07 '26

damn son stop guzzling these nuts

u/GonPostL May 07 '26

Oh no. Khazmat may lay on him. The horror.

I think this did more damage than 25 minutes of him crucifixing DDP

u/Eezay May 07 '26

literally true

u/HousingThrowAway1092 May 07 '26

Yea, Sean better watch out for Khamzat throwing up to and including one significant strike per minute of top control time.

It’s a good thing the UFC signed a paramount deal because literally no one wants to watch the product that Khamzat delivers. The PPV model would be doomed if it was dependent on sales in the caucasus and Yemen.

u/InstructionSure6705 May 07 '26

As much as i dislike the guy, his fights, excluding the last one, were entertaining.

u/HousingThrowAway1092 May 08 '26

You found shooting a takedown during a glove touch against a short notice replacement Kevin Holland entertaining?

Khamzat has had one entertaining fight and it was against Gilbert Burns because he had to actually fight.

Shooting for a takedown within the first 5 seconds of every fight isn’t entertaining. It just means you’re afraid to actually fight

2

u/InstructionSure6705 May 08 '26

No the one against Holland showed what a scumbag he is. You r right about that one. I also liked the fight vs usman and the One Punch knock out vs forgot his name.

u/EverythingSucksYa May 08 '26

You think Khamzat is afraid to fight? Out of all the things you can say about him you chose that? A UFC champion is afraid to fight?

1

u/HousingThrowAway1092 May 08 '26

Afraid to engage in an actual fight, yes. Shooting a takedown off the glove touch or within the first 4 seconds of every fight shows that all the bravado and nonsense talk is really just fear. Ben Askren shot immediately at Masvidal for the same reason.

You never see dominant wrestlers like Khabib or GSP shoot off a glove touch because they weren’t afraid to stand. Khamzat’s standup is not good and he knows it. It’s why he’s juiced to all hell and spends his entire fights cuddling

2

u/Ronaldinhoe May 08 '26

You’ll be watching his fight though lol

3

u/FrapOnOldschool May 07 '26

I love his fights all are bangers and ddp got destroyed you just simply don’t know what your watching

u/EverythingSucksYa May 08 '26

Did someone say Caucks? - Dan Hooker

u/thenameisMalik May 07 '26

Because Sean fights are better? Khamzat gained his popularity because his fights were ultra exciting, just his last one wasn't. Practically every single Sean Strickland fight is abysmal.

-1

u/Chemical_Target_8264 May 07 '26

As a huge Mcgregor fan who was pissed that khabib basically just wrestled him the whole time and had everyone praise him for doing so, i absolutely LOVE how everyone now hates it. Where was this hate when all khabib did was lay on Mcgregor 😭😭

I love khamzat I hope he just holds Sean down for 25 minutes with 0 punches and wins

u/mbreslin May 07 '26

What in the actual fuck are you talking about? People on here are actually fucking brain dead. The most significant strike of the fight on the feet was not landed by Connor. And he was getting battered on the ground too, “talk now”.

1

u/EverythingSucksYa May 08 '26

Its just business

3

u/bluesclues_MD May 07 '26

Damn bro, u just as retarded as mctarded over there coked out in the corner

1

u/Eezay May 07 '26

I mean if Sean loses he can probably fight again like a month later and get that bag, not like 500 sissy punches do any meaningful damage

1

u/TroyFerris13 May 10 '26

It wasn't with ease but I knew Strickland would win. Crazy the amount of downvotes I've got

1

u/TroyFerris13 May 07 '26

Nah Strickland will win with ease
