I’m predicting a Khamzat hype train derailment. Burns is so much more skilled than his last opponents, that’s what happens when you leapfrog your entire division to the number 2 guy. I don’t think Khamzat completely understands how much harder an opponent it’s going to be
If I recall Khamzat usually like yells/screams and comes in fast and hard. That approach is just far too risky against someone like Burns, especially when he’s completely fresh not tired round 1. If Khamzat changes his approach and comes in measured, that will be a sign he has a better chance at winning IMO

Yeah definitely, that's what makes it so exciting Burns is by far his hardest opponent, and I think his obvious similarities to khabib do a lot of heavy lifting hype wise. So win or lose, it'll be huge either way. I loved khabib and since he retired khamzat is like the next best thing, so far anyway. I'd love to see him vs olievera if they could somehow get the weight divisions matched up, cause they both fight like spider monkeys.
