[Canon]

Yikes

 

[No Ma’am]

Khamzat going need to fight at his natural weight class. This is his weigh in at UFC 267 in Abu Dhabi.

 

[EarlyEarly]

I wouldn't be surprised if Khamzat doesn't make weight for Saturday...

Posted this on Monday in the general MMA topic but he was 22kg over on Monday night. I'm not a weight cut guy so I didn't know if he could do it or not but I personally didn't think it was happening. He wasn't taking it serious at all.

dude looked bigger than Jack Hermanson when they had their one-off wrestling match

 

[The G.O.D II]

fukking weight cheating bum just getting gifted blown up 155lbers left and right but can’t even do that correctly. Serves the UFC right trying to sell this trash fight as a PPV main event. Let that dude fight at 185 so he can get outwrestled by Brunson

 

[puppetmaster]

“That’s not that bad”





This whole thing has been a shyt show from the announcement of the fight to everything going on

 

[So UnThotful]

Ayo thread title is the absolute truth, shyt show

Khamzat Chimaev is a whole ass clown​

I hope Nate plays hardball to get the UFC to pay up to save this event

 

[QBN]

Hanging with that joker Darren Till 24/7 has rubbed off on Khamzat. He hasnt seemed as disciplined or hungry for a while

If he misses weight he should just go to middleweight

And he has the nerve to tweet jokes about it

 

[Strapped]

Anyone else feel like the pressure is getting to Khamzat? He’s been acting up all week. Maybe he’s just trying to sell the fight


Sidenote: gets a little annoying when they clump him in with Khabib. They fight way different and he didn’t train with them. He’s not even a devout Muslim like Khabib is. He’s from Chechnya, seeked asylum, went to Sweden. Once he blew up the Chechen dictator started supporting him.

Dude just puts on a show for the cameras

 

[THEREALBRAND]

Khamzat’s camp or the UFC needs to get him away from Till if they want him to have a future. Till is the bad ass kid down the street with no future that your parents warn you about hanging with.

Son....I knew he missed weight but 7.5 over. That nikka literally didn't care about the fight. I was already surprised this was the main event. Dana gotta be furious and that makes me happy that he missed weight.

 

[KingBeez]

I thought they said this PPV was getting canceled yesterday? Is it still going down? And how this mf get so overweight lmao I think he had no plan on making weight

Edit: it was just the press conference that was canceled

[Ari Gold Bawse]

Worst ppv card in a long time.

Edit: didn't even see the main fight is now a catchweight .

Khamzat been round Till too much can't make weight just like him. Time to go up to 185, that division needs some new blood anyway

I seen his interview and honestly he talked more about the money than the fight he comes off like he doesn't really care he just wants the money. After that beating he took from burns i wouldn't be surprised if next year he's like Nate and bashes the UFC pay rate.

Missing by 8 pounds shows he really didn't even attempt to get hard to lose weight. Dude doesn't even care much.

Also Darren till is too friendly smd too much of a bro, too much clowning and partying and went away from being the Russian killer the UFC hyped him up to be.
