But not 29 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: only are they changing weight classes, they seem to be 30 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: growing into the weights at an unbelievable rate. COM's out. 31 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: Your Maya is thinking of going to two or five. 32 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: Alex Perera was on the scale at two hundred and 33 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: forty five pounds. These guys look like they belong in 34 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: these weight classes and have not even fought there. To 35 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: think that Alex Pereira at one point five at eighty 36 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: five is the craziest thought of all time. But today's 37 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: video is going to be centered around the idea that 38 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,239 Speaker 1: Hamsat Chimaya wants to fight at two oh five. When 39 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: Hamsa Chimaya started expressing interest in fighting at two o five. 40 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: I was a bit hesitant because it wasn't that long 41 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: ago that he was fighting at one seventy Most two 42 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: oh five pounders myself, when I was fighting in this 43 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: weight class, could never have touched one hundred and seventy 44 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: pounds as an adult. I was one seventy when I 45 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: was in high school. Once I was done with one 46 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: seventy one as a sophomore in high school, I never 47 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: made that weight again. I was too big. So I 48 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: thought that if Hamsaut to fight at two o five, 49 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: he would be running up against guys that would be 50 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: just too big for him, and at some point that 51 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 1: has to become an issue. Then I saw a video 52 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: of him sparring with Khalil Rowntree. His back look massive. 53 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: He looks like a two or five pound fighter already. 54 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: And then I watched the video him sparring with Luke Rockhold, 55 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: who is all of six foot four and two hundred 56 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: and twenty seven pounds. Right now, I'm not talking about 57 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: the skill level of rock Hole today. I'm talking about 58 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,839 Speaker 1: the size of rock Hole today. Kams At Chamayav look 59 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: just as big, if not bigger. Then when you watch 60 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: the videos, you watch the sparring. You watch him in 61 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: Khalil Rowntree striking striking and if they're not drilling, and 62 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: Luis will put this video for you to see. I'm 63 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: not an untrained eye. It looks to me like Homsaud 64 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: is winning the striking. It's Cat who is an amazing striker. 65 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: I watched him kick with Luke and he's kicking with 66 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: the same power as Luke. I gotta be honest, guys, 67 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: I don't know that this kid could not fight at 68 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: two hundred and five pounds. I really do believe that 69 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: he's able to fight in this weight class. When he 70 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 1: picked me up in Chicago, I felt he was stronger 71 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 1: than he was when he's fighting at one seven. There's 72 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: a video him and I grappling way back in Abu 73 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: Dabi back in the day. Then when he picked me 74 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: up in Chicago, I felt he was stronger. But watching 75 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: him next to these big guys now, I am really 76 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: starting to believe that he can fight at two o five. 77 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: And when you look at the two a five pound 78 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: champion Alects Perera, obviously he's two hundred and forty five pounds, 79 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: he's huge, he's massive, but he still doesn't wrestle, right, 80 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: Perera's not a guy that a wrestles. He's shown takedown defense, 81 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 1: he's shown that if he hit sure, you can put 82 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: you out completely, like you're done. But he's not a 83 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: guy with a wrestling background. And we have seen what 84 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 1: toms I have done to guys without wrestling backgrounds. I 85 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: am telling you, I'm watching this and I'm thinking to myself, 86 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: might be a two or five pounder. Now, granted, there's 87 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: business to be done at one eighty five. You know, 88 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 1: Na Sardina, Mavov has earned his title opportunity, He's earned 89 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: his chance to fight for that belt. And I imagine 90 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: that Hamzaud is here in the United States preparing for 91 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: that fight with in Mavov. That would be my guess 92 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: if I am uh thinking about what's next. But the 93 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: reality is one, how difficult it is gonna be for 94 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 1: him to get back down to one eighty five because 95 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, he looks massive next to round tree two. 96 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: How will he compete when he's back down there in three? 97 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: How does a Mavov deal with the size of Hamsa 98 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: Tramayev at this point, Because while a Mavov was a 99 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 1: one eighty five pound the Haamsa was at one seventy. 100 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 1: Tomas looks like the bigger guy. He looks like the 101 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: much bigger fighter. Now, I'm telling you you guys have 102 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: to watch, have to watch that training footage. He looks 103 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: like a monster at over two hundred pounds. Tomasa Chimaya 104 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: also has the Shan Strickland issue to deal with at 105 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: one eighty five. These guys cannot stand each other. Look, guys, 106 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: when you are two athletes of the highest caliber and 107 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: you have trained together and you have thought in sparring, 108 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 1: one of those guys knows or someone knows exactly what happened. 109 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 1: But as most say, what happens in the gym stays 110 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: in the gym. That's the only reason nobody's spoken up. 111 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 1: Now Sean has his story, hams not has his story, 112 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: and they're going back and forth. So what Sean Strickland 113 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: was acting about training with Hamsa Chimi said, I made 114 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: him quit At hiss UFC Houston post fight media scrum. 115 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: He goes witnesses in the audience, he said, where's Eric Nixont? 116 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: He said, I made him quit? No, we were doing 117 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: positional grappling. Start on my back. I was like first 118 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: round I let him choke me, because who gives a 119 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: f he goes. But let me tell you about that 120 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: little bit. I'll tell you when I walk into a gym, 121 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: do you think that I go and find the little 122 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: weakest man? I said, let's spar I find the biggest, 123 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: baddest m effort. And I'm like, hey, I want to 124 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: spare you. Every time Tamaia have walked in the gym, 125 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: he would pick the smallest, lowest level pro and say 126 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: he looks like my opponent. He would pick the smallest guy, 127 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: he said, SHAMAIAV is a bully. Now, Sean Strickland is 128 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: Sean Strickland, right, Sean Strickland seems to be wanting to 129 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: pick a fight. But Sean Strickland, do you guys believe 130 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: would be picking a fight as strongly if he didn't 131 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: feel like he might have had some success against Shamayev? 132 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: Or does Sean Strickland seem like a guy that goes. 133 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: I don't care what happened in the training room. I 134 00:07:55,440 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: want this next opportunity as the title because you can 135 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: be loud, right and boastful to earn something even if 136 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: you don't know if you can handle it. It sounds 137 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: to me like Strickland feels like he can compete with Tremaiah. 138 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: We haven't seen anybody do that outside of Kamara Usman, 139 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: but it sounds like Strickland believes that he's got a 140 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: lot to do there, right, because with Strickland beating Fluffy 141 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: Hernandez in the way that he did, he immediately is 142 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: a contender. But but is that one victory enough to 143 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: say once in Mavov's done, this is the guy? Well? 144 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: What all is? Back and forth? What all is back 145 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: and forth? People are more inclined to buy into it 146 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: than they would be if he wasn't talking and chirping, 147 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: if there wasn't bad blood. People are more open now 148 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: to the idea that Sehn Strickland could be the guy. 149 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: But I mean that weight class has people that have 150 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: earned a chance to fight for that belt. I don't 151 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: know if maybe Sean took some confidence from defending Fluffy, right, 152 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: because Fluffy is that guy that known to the cardio machine, 153 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 1: and you know Sean was able to manage that pretty good. 154 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 1: I thought he fought tremendous on Saturday night. I think 155 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: this Tamaiya fight would be a much difficult issue. But 156 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: I think that this kid is big enough to compete 157 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: at two five. I think that he needs, though, to 158 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: handle all the business that's left at one hundred and 159 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: eighty five, and then maybe we start to see guys 160 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: that could potentially fight for three belts. I mean, I 161 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: think Ilia has the ability to fight for three belts. 162 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: I think Pereira has the ability to fight for three belts. 163 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: And I think Tremaya has the ability to compete in 164 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: three weight classes at a very high level. He didn't 165 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: fight for about at one seventy, but he's a champion 166 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: eighty five, and I do believe that if he goes 167 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: two or five, with the state of the division and 168 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: the people fighting there, he could be a real problem 169 00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: for guys in that weight class. Man, it's an exciting time, 170 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: especially if your team Jamaiah, because this dude right now, 171 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: he seems to have the world at his fingertips. And uh, 172 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like he's a guy that's gonna take 173 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: that for granted. But we'll see, We'll see what Jamaiah 174 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: does next. Like I said, my bet would be that 175 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: it's a mouth off. Let me know in the comments 176 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: who you think Jamiah could fight and how you think 177 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: he would do at two o five. I want to 178 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: know what you guys think of how he would do 179 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,679 Speaker 1: at two o five.
