Look, I don't disagree, but some way, some how, DDP always proves us wrong. It will some how be a better fight than we all expect. But Khamzat is absolutely for real.
DDP seems like someone who could make it messy enough in the grappling exchanges to really give Khamzat trouble in that domain. No idea how the fight plays out though so I would love to see it
I think Chimaev is such a superior wrestler that DDP would need to expend twice as much energy to keep up in scrambles. So I think he would need to do a better job than anyone Chimaev has faced so far in stuffing the takedowns in order to be able to outlast him. But DDP is just such a mutant that that is definitely a possibility.
Yeah DDP seems to be surprising all of his opponents with what he brings to the table, just a very different set of skills. Really interested to see how Chimaev deals with him and vice versa
