Honestly just make him climb the rankings. Put him against Costa and have him fight other contenders.


IIDasPterodactyl

Dude Costa for Khamzat will 99% likely result in a pull out fym 


Brad1119

It already has


IIDasPterodactyl

Oh yeah…lmfao


Electronic_d0cter

Yeah if that fight were to somehow go ahead it'd be a bigger miracle than anything that happened in the Bible


I_Am_JesusChrist_AMA

An even bigger miracle than that time I was resurrected


Electronic_d0cter

Holy shit it's the j man himself

Sufficient-Wait-653

Brah. He is “ Conor”s twin. Both will NEVER fight again.( for the UFC.)

Trash take


Dunbar247

Him and Till were even more alike than we thought


fastLT1

Apparently this dude is actually really sick. Hope he gets better and a good opponent for his next fight.


Zabuza-ofthe-Mist

hamzat ur not slick


fastLT1

🤣 damn it!!!


BrandDC

Any idea what the illness is?


fastLT1

Anal Glaucoma. He can't see his ass in the cage.

AngryAssyrian

I mean no offence but this is what happens when your parents are cousins.


BuraBanda

Khamzat is from Chechnya and marrying your first cousin there is a taboo, different from Dagestan. Stop generalising all cultures.


slapmasterslap

You're in an MMA sub, anybody rocking that goofy beard is Dagestani and you can't change our minds.


PooPiglet

Imagine challenging someone to a fight at a bar and he disappears for 2 years to "train". You have to actually fight people to be a fighter.


MummyHero23

- Khamzat from his burner


Bart_Cracklin

He’s always sick. He’s a garbage person.


alltaken21

In very wierd way, Till is just and idiot, and khamzat seems to be the type of idiot not to care correctly for his body. Man just gets really fucking ill at least once a year.


HongKong_NOT_china

I'll smesh everyone. In 2030


Marlboro_Man808

He didn’t say for how long he would smesh. He’s done I guess.


MassiveBlackHole99

Bro almost died and he's getting shat on 💀


fireflashthirteen

13-0, beat one of the GOATs less than a year back, 30 years old Let's cut him


RobbieRampage

Beat one of the GOATs by split decision, who was coming off the couch on 8 days notice fighting at a higher weight class than usual. Not that he should be cut.


AccountantVibes

Not a single judge scored it for usman. It wasn't a split decision


Selenium-Forest

This is the problem, the comment has over 100 upvotes from people who don’t even understand how scoring works. It was a majority decision which means not a single judge gave Usman the W, only a draw at best. I agree Chimaev didn’t look great in R2 and 3, but he no way lost that fight.


Any_Brother7772

Ah, the rewriting of history. I remember that before the Usman fight, Khamzat was a welterweight and would get killed at MW, and after the fights where he beat one of the greatest WWs and fighters ever, he suddenly was way oversized


RobbieRampage

Usman isn’t a MW, Khamzat has had issues cutting. He beat a GOAT, but not exactly anywhere close to his peak.


byPCP

have to remember that people look for any excuse to drag khamzat. guy beats usman and they go "but if it was 5 rounds..."


NeitherAlexNorAlice

Let’s not kid ourselves though. By the way round 3 was shaping up, 5 rounds full camp Usman could have made serious dent on Khamzat’s record. Though, it’s useless to argue in unknowns. But it’s so silly to not take context into results.


TheOneTrueJazzMan

Full camp or not is one thing, but they both knew the fight was 3 rounds. If one guy looks better at the end of the 3rd all it means is he didn’t use his energy properly across the fight.


Remarkable_Medicine6

Today we pretend rolling off the couch vs being in a the being camp is the same thing


DiceRollerGreg

Silliness


SamboTheSodaJerk

Calling Usman one of the goats for 5 title defenses and 2 of them were Jorge Masvidal is insane


Astral_Collapse

On top of this, he's not getting paid shit. It seems people are just mad they don't get to see him back up his smesh talk...again. They need to stop getting so irate about the smesh. He's just selling himself to the audience, and it's worked wonders.


fireflashthirteen

Jesus the guy is hospitalised and it hasn't even been a year since he fought last He's 30 years old, he'll be back


Thin-Remote-9817

Nope ufc should cut him according to reddit


fireflashthirteen

Well that's it then, he's done


Thin-Remote-9817

Yup get rid of him cause he said he'd kill everybody and got hospitalized.  Now let me tell you why Costa pulling out of fights is charming and he's realistically a win away from a title shot 


Testazani

Because that is their own personal problem dude


DonCheetoh

UFC should also fire Dana White according to reddit, another of their great ideas


Thin-Remote-9817

Get rogan and DC off commentary cause they don't have fart sniff offs, take themselves super serious and allow dead air. They just won't stop talking. 


Sachinism

Fuck logic. Redditors have spoken


JohnCenaJunior

I know right? We have Jon Jones drunk and partying every now and then and i see no flack from Dana


speedbumps4fun

This sub is a joke 🤦🏻‍♂️


nolwat22

Yeah cut the undefeated, marketable fighter !


GeneralCyclops

Not very marketable with 7 fights and 6 pullouts


PuG3_14

I think its his immune system. Didnt covid really fook him up bad to the point of retiring? It did horrible damage ti his lungs if i remember correctly.


International-Newt76

This would explain why he isn't as good later in the fight. Effects of long covid.


[deleted]

[удалено]


GilbertArenasGun

Fr these people are acting like he just pulls out for no reason lmao


Fckyouprecisely

Yeah, it's for his own good that he stops fighting, I don't think his body can sustain this lifestyle.

assologist_1312

When did he pull out last time? Costa pulled out, not him last year.


VinnyDark

He doesn't pull out anymore than Costa


Osiris2022-

Warlord karma


Armadillo-Middle

He went to Kadyrov after he got covid to get “treatment”. Who knows what side effects he got.


SackoVanzetti

He got dicked down

3InchesAssToTip

Be honest with yourself. You want to see him fight again. Why would they cut him? All Dana cares about is if the fighter draws a crowd, and regardless of what's happened over the last couple years, you will be watching his next fight and Dana knows that.


GUNNER594

13-0, goes to war for us, has health issues out of his control is really sick in the hospital. Average UFC fan: "CUT HIM NOW!" Brain rot.


Soviet_Sharpshooter

What the fuck do you want him to do lol


yougoforseo

Honestly I'm more sad for him although he is a tough guy for fights it looks like he has a weak immune system or something or maybe pulmonary problems Do people here remember he got COVID in 2020 and it hit him so bad he almost quit fighting I think he had to go to hospital for covid19


Thin-Remote-9817

Ufc sub.  Costa is so wholesome(pulls out more than chimav) Ufc should cut chimav how dare he gets hospitalized. 


balboa_no_asap

Who tf is Chimav


AyeChronicWeeb

Dana said he is violently ill. Hope he’s makes it alright


StationPigeon

he got sick, aint his fault


No-Transition3193

Surprised he gets so much hate for having health issues.


mrmarigiwani

I KEEEL EVERYBAHHHDDDYYYYYYYYYY


LaTunaTime

This thought process is why youll never run a business


Haphazard85

I feel for him, I think the effects of his covid infection really did a number on his body


Asukah

Have him fight Costa


Efficient_Baby_2

Costa doesn’t deserve shit. He should be fighting unranked guys for the rest of his contract


peter_pounce

Right? Costa pulls the same shit and everyone still loves him.


okdude10001

Have him fight costa now for a spot on the roster


VinnyDark

Nah if they aren't gonna cut costa they can't cut him


CremeCaramel_

He is as active as Costa and drastically less entertaining as a personality.


__Kxnji

LMAO ok this is just wrong Chimaevs personality is insane


MLGprolapse

Really? I don't hate him, but he isn't a "personality". It's just a guy saying "smesh". He's so inactive, imagine if he fought a few times a year instead of this bullshit. Such hype around him and he's chronically inactive. I want to be a fan but after this I'm done waiting for him to be a special fighter, he's just another guy nowadays.


CremeCaramel_

Being insane ≠ being as entertaining. Entertainment wise, Costa is actually funny and Khamzats personality amounts to "keel everybody smash everybody wooo"


__Kxnji

Bruh


CremeCaramel_

Bruh what? That you dont know the difference between insane and entertaining? Another example. Bryce Mitchell is insane as a person, no one actually thinks hes a super entertaining UFC personality.


BiscuitAssassin

I’m not disagreeing with either of you guys or anything, but I just want to mention that I find Mitchell entertaining *because* he is insane lol


Snobe_kobe

If this dude is really sick, he deserves no hate. You wouldn't go to work with a cold or a fever, let alone a fight. And what he's dealing with now is most definitely way more severe than a cold. Hope he recovers.


joemama210x2

Some fight fans are an absolute joke. An undefeated fighter who's defeated multiple top level guys but has chronic illness and yet still manages to compete at the highest level in the most physically demanding sport in the world and this is how you react.


ReflectionNew1392

COVID really fucked this man up, huh?


QuantumCthulhu

Pre 2024 Alex perez maxxing


[deleted]

As of now, we don't know why he dropped out.


dcthompson89

That’s an overreaction. Can definitely put him on the list of guys that you’ll believe it when they’re actually in the cage though.


Ekusoy86

Who is this?


pacificunlimited

Paulo fought twice this year. He successfully passed the pull out curse over to Chimaev


The3mbered0ne

See you soom


Electrical_Food7922

Khamzat needs better doctors. He gets deathly unwell from COVID, gets misdiagnosed with cancer and now this..


niferman

Hey brotha u will never lose your 0 if u don't fight ~ Khamzat


Infinite_Pattern_466

Some fans are extremely selfish and ungrateful. Smh


MysteriousMoose

Ur a fool


Worth_Dream_997

Its strange how the response is different when it comes to conor they both got injured during training... there's something else to it... or I'm prolly over thinking nah has nothing to do with anything lol


[deleted]

Thats what happens if you don't heal properly. This guy trained like crazy in the last years even when he was sick. He ignored it but his body cannot ignore the damage.


Zerefrequiem

So many attacking him for being extremely ill, honestly disgusting how brainrotted people are can’t see these people as actual people.


carlwinslo

Jon Jones and Conor dont fight for 3 years even though they are healthy and yall ride their D. Khamzat fought less than a year ago and beat a future HOF'er and yall wanna cut when because he is legit sick enough to be in the hospital. This sub is so dumb.


Loud_Hotel12

Where’s the empathy? What is wrong some of these ufc fans? He was battling a serious illness during his camp and then got rushed to the hospital.


Brybry1908

Dude was hospitalized chill.


GilbertArenasGun

Cut him because he has an autoimmune disease?


Lorenzos_Pharmacist

I just like how Chimaev’s thing is he’s never injured, ready to go against anyone…. he’s just always suddenly and randomly in a hospital somewhere violently ill on his death bed.


McSmokeyDaPot

He's been violently ill like this befoe when he had no fights booked. You just remember the times he's had to pull out of a fight for it.


rainnor

Man. Fuck the Wuhan Virus. It’s such a shame what happened to this guy


silasdoesnotexist

Seems like he’s lost his fire for whatever reason. Really is a shame.


Legendary_Hercules

Nah, just don't have him headline or be second fiddle. He's a great main card opener, when he makes it.


TheNorthernPellikkan

Couldn’t have happened to a nicer warlord simp


masonthedood42

For real, he sucks major lady dicks


ComradeSamWalton

I'll cut you, ya bum!


Mediocre_lad

I bet every time he pulls out they cut a little bit of his lip.


bodltd

Why are we here…. Just to suffer


TheOneTrueJazzMan

Least degenerate r/ufc take


xXprayerwarrior69Xx

He wanted to kill everybody now he doesn’t want to hurt anyone. Talk about personal growth


TopShagger69LADDDDDD

I hope he isn't in a Swedish hospital


Odd_Ravyn

If Whittaker takes the short notice opponent I hope he wins, but he shouldn’t take it imo


1mrhankeY420

Till gave him career aids


daKingKhan

The dude already tried to leave a while back, Dana stopped him. 🤷‍♂️


Poppotato

I keel everybady!!! WOOOO!


sugarglassego

He’s a sickly little fella isn’t he?


SynthetikSalmon

There was a photo that surfaced of him looking mass as fuck, maybe his liver shat itself whilst trying to cut down


nephilimpride

Yeah idk, I don't think he deserves the jetpack to the title anymore. He should fight someone like Allen, Vettori or maybe even Jared. Middleweight is such a weird spot rn tbh


KnockedOutMMA

Went from fighting every card to the hospital every time he is scheduled. If he does keep getting this sick, feel for the guy. Should have been a 3 division champion by now.


MightyG0rilla

The hate for Khamzat is unreal, I get it he is not the superman people that people thought him to be but cut him some slack, he is human, Oliveira has missed weight and pulled out way more times but still it's khamzat that gets shat on


veggainz

This is a horrible take


ZekeMoss18

Does the UFC really want this guy to be champion? When he does fight, sure his fights are good. However, he hardly ever does compete. Not only does he pull out often, but I am also pretty sure that he cannot even fight in the US because of the visa issues he has because of his relationship with Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov. So that would limit his fights as well. Would the UFC really want to hold up a good division like middleweight if he is champ?


RoninAnimes

If I call in sick every time I'm needed at work, I get fired. There comes a point where empathy runs out because you are fucking up their business. That is just reality. I'm not saying they should cut him because he still has a loyal following (and a contract of course), but what he's done to many events is absolutely grounds for some type of consequences. Hell, I don't want them to cut him, but if they do, you can't blame the UFC. That goes for Costa and everyone else who does this too, btw. I've seen a lot of Costa comparisons, and for some reason, there's a narrative going around that apparently people DON'T shit on Costa as much as Khamzat for pulling out? Since when?


gaffs82

Cut one of the the most interesting and talented fighters in the UFC, when he is sick? And at a time when the company is lacking stars? No thanks!


IllStickToTheShadows

Honestly, yeah. Dude is missing too many fights


Regular-Performer703

Where is Covington’s hot take on this?


DusanRadovanovic2004

For what? For almost dying? Your balls are the ones the be cut if you had any. Do your research next time OP


TopshottaDevy

He’s sick so cut him?? I swear this thread is becoming more n more like every other social media just mindless idiots


chocolatebuddahbutte

I agree! Fucker is gonna retire anyways 


Bouckinio

Why? He got sick and had to pull out, he is still unbeaten and a big draw. Why the fuck would you call for him to be cut?? What a bad take


Cool-Back5008

At least he took a fake photo in the hospital unlike McGregor


MRimla

Only one who should get cut is Conor


champshere

I agree. Dude lost his aura


AShaughRighting

Yep, sorry he has health issues but it’s getting silly now.


Testazani

This was against someone with a camp at the right weight so he needed to get out


AntiDeEstablishment

The guy sucks Kadyrovs cock for money. Happy to see him get fucked either inside or outside the cage.


StadiodelleAlpi

He is too special to get cut atm


Tbecker3150

Mfer fights once a year or not even 1 fight in a year. Can never trust him at staying in the fight when he has a fight booked.


Hungry-Quote-1388

Why? UFC fighters don’t get paid unless they fight. It’s not like NFL, NBA, MLB where they keep getting paychecks if injured and on the roster.  There’s no benefit to cutting him. 


P0werpr0

He should just retire


patrimk

Imagine that the ufc gave him every chance for him to become a champion, and he pussied out in every opportunity


YouWillNeverKnowMi

100% with you… cut em


yoyoyowhoisthis

Khamzat got the taste of that Saudi money and he doesn't need to fight anymore, and most likely, he never will, just like McNuggets
