Short of Khamzat running through Burns and stamping himself as the next superstar, that was everything we could have hoped for.

Immediate takeaway is that with some improved striking defence and mixing up the striking and wrestling more the guy is a champion in the making. Big tick for the chin.

I think Colby is actually a better matchup for him, but Usman's jab will cause him all kinds of problems at this point.

Edit: Colby in a 3 rounder, not 5.

Lol Ron Desantis getting a bigger pop than Chris Weidman. What a sh*thole.

Two title fights now, I'm exhausted already.

I had Burns 2-1 but Khamz gets steamrolled by Usman and possibly Colby.
I don't think he fights that reckless against Usman. I reckon he learned after that fight how dangerous the top 5 is. I think Khamzat has everything to be a potential champion

Khamzat would beat Colby easy, not sure he is ready for Usman yet but there's no real other fight to make now.

Really like to see Burns vs Colby.

Can you imagine if Khamzat loses.....Darren will be blamed lol.
What a fight!

And even though he got the win…..I’m already seeing the comments regarding Till ruining Khamzat.

mma fans can be strange.

It’s cardio for mine, Usman won’t gas and his tank was just about empty by the 4th minute of the second. Usman dodges the knockout for a round and then pressured him to the end.

Yeah I don't see Colby being able to take him down so it's stand up and Khamzat looks like he has alot more power than Colby.

Assuming Luque beats Belal (likely), it will be interesting to see what's next for him. Similar to Burns, a guy with an awesome ground game who can bang would appear to be the toughest fights for Khamzat.

That was a close fight. Much better showing from Sterling.

Huge statement from Sterling to retain the title. Shoved it up everyone.

How do you defend 20/22 takedowns, land more significant strikes, have 6 minutes of control time and lose?
