We can't disprove the three extra wins on Tapology. We just can't...find them. As Val stated, we are in the midst of unraveling a big mess with Zhekpe Zhek, which is both a national martial art of Kazakhstan and a throwaway organizational title that promoters use when they just want to run an event and not name it. Leads to a lot of "amateur or TMA tournaments with one pro fight on top" situations that may be legitimate, just messy.

Alibi Idiris is one to keep an eye out for if they sign him. Look at how he demolished Erisson Ferreira who was on Contender Series

Always look forward to your posts in these kind of threads

These guys from Kazakhstan all blend into one for me, they're all flyweights or bantamweights as well.

Ah yes, especially the really famous one, you know the flyweight/bantamweight shavkhat

 

[kingghidrah]

you are mistaken. the depth of fighters there is of much higher quality than you realize. just because you don't know who they are, and they don't have wiki or some crap, doesn't mean shit.

no it's you who are mistaken, i have data-driven reasons for my pronouncements, it's not that "they don't have wiki or crap"

We found them.

They weren't MMA, they limited grappling to 30 seconds, and then there's an automatic break or standup no matter the position (mount, in submission, etc).

Big update. He's 11-1 with 11 mixed rules wins. UFC might announced him at 14-1 or 11-1, but not 17 after all.

This is why Sherdog is the best in the business

Bezkat fighting Umar this weekeend reminds me of when Arman Tsarukyan fought Islam years back -- there is a clear favorite, but it may turn into a highly technical and competitive match.

what does the Zat mean in these guys names
Zats and Kats
It’s a takeover

Wow, that’s a big change.
Did you guys contact the anyone about this case?

I never understood why they would do fights like this, like, you can’t just change the rules and expect the contest to count as a real fight. Ofcourse I know some organizations do these things to get more ’exciting’ fights, but it just doesn’t make sense (especially from the fighters perspective)
