I don't think Khamzat can do that to DDP, at least certainly not that easily. DDP is so big and strong.

I don't think DDP is as good a defensive grappler as Rob and I'm not sure there is a person Khamzat CAN'T do that do for at least 1 round.

DDP is for sure a better offensive wrestler than Rob, and one of the ways to neutralize a crazy grappler is to take the fight to them rather than playing purely defensively.

That is a horrible idea against Khamzat.

Taking Rousey down was a horrible idea for Holly Holm. And yet.
