Khamzat vs Wonderboy?

Damn! That’s awesome.
Can’t wait to see if he’s the real deal vs a mid ranked talent

It's a shame. Colby and Usman are bad matchups for him, but other than those two, i'd favor him against anyone else at 170. He has great fundamentals in both his striking defense and striking offense. Wonderboy would be a hard fight for him and i don't think his TD will hold up against Colby or Usman. To cover the other two top-guys - i think he outpoints both Masvidal and Burns. Chimaev can fall in the same category as Colby and Usman if he proves himself against a top-ranked opponent.

Colby vs Jorge makes so much sense.
That’ll be a good fight too.

Usman has essientially beat the entire division, he’s the anti-Khabib, so I don’t mind the best contenders picking each other off and the cream rises to the top.

There would be a depressing aspect of Colby/Jorge to me, regardless of how good it should be. Isn't there some youtube video showing a compilation of those two hanging out as BFFs and roommates and sh*t? And now they hate each other, for what? Money.

It would feel weird, like the time that dude fought his brother in WSOF.

I relate to this so hard. Frank Mir is the reason I started watching MMA and Royce Gracie is the reason I started training jiu jitsu. Both of those guys have popped for roids and Royce is legit delusional...but I'll always root for both. :D
