Actually I'm not sure about "destroying". Chimaev is indeed my favorite fighter for this fight but actually I don't see the mentality of a champion in him. I can say that Chimaev is an immature fighter. His last match against Burns showed when Chimaev didn't listen to his coach's advice. And if this was still the same Chimaev then the outcome of the fight would have been different. It's just that I still place my bet on Chimaev.
You will never know for sure what is going on with Chimaev's mind, and we will never know what may happen in the future for sure even though his mind is immature and he likely doesn't have a focused mind on becoming a champion for his strength alone has proven us that he may 1 day become champion for sure and for me, I always believe that Khamzat Chimaev even though he is not champion material or many is against him for sure that 1 day he can likely achieve that,
Sodiq Yusuff (1.57) VS Edson Barboza (2.35) -
LOSTFor sure the 1st round was great for Sadiq Yusuff he almost knockout Edson Barbosa and pressured him with his boxing, but Edson Barbosa managed to hang on from all the barrage he was taking from Yusuff but for sure Edson Barbosa in round 2 clearly recovered, and was going now with his kicks and right now Yusuff movement has now slowed down in this pace, for me Sadiq Yusuff have landed more strikes than Edson even though Edson Barbosa got many takedowns than Yusuff he still manages to win this fight for sure I thought that Sadiq Yusuff won this fight but Barbosa return back on the initial rounds,
Jonathan Martinez (1.85) VS Adrian Yanez (1.92) -
LOSTFor sure Jonathan Martinez's low kicks have put some neat damage to Adrian Yanez's lead leg and Yanez was hopping into desperation inside the octagon because of those low kicks even though the fight was settled Adrian Yanez was still limping in the post-interview surely I was wrong again because it was a master class performance for Jonathan Martinez,
Christian Rodriguez (1.63) VS Cameron Saaiman (2.23) -
LOSTThis was a close fight for sure and it could also go the other way but Christian Rodriguez surely has the control for sure Rodriguez shot 6 takedowns but 3 has got Saaiman down for sure while Cameron Saaiman shot 5 takedowns not for sure it was a close fight both entered the fight with no losses at all but for sure they already taken care about this but for sure it was a lost for me again
