[Xanzito]

Khamzat Chimaev says Jon Jones is a dream matchup for any fighter, regardless of weight class

Khamzat Chimaev acknowledges Jon Jones’ greatness and would love an opportunity to fight him.

After going after everyone from WW to LHW, Khamzat goes for a HW.

He says it's a dream fight he didn't say he would smash Bones, i'm saying this because i know people will shit talk about him now lol Even sherdog chumps can dream a fight no problem
And he say Jones is the GOAT, he is not like other retards saying Khabib is the goat just because they come from similar background

Would love to see Khamzat vs. Jones as Jones' last fight.

Why not? It would be a fucking blast! You can not say with a straight face that you wouldn't wanna see this fight.

 

[humperdoo]

sure. if it's what it takes to see a good fight.

 

[Trabaho]

Gilbert beat him up

Who are you arguing with.

Too small

Jones would baby him

There has been a few replies since my initial post, and I would like to adress them all, as if they were one:

Wouldn't it be fucking cool to see Khamzat vs Jones?

Do not tell me that you wouldn't like the fight. I know that you would be lying.

 

[Pancake Sprawl]

his dream fight should be to fight someone relevant in his current weight class and stop fighting these Jake Paul matches where they bring smaller guys to fight him all the time.

 

[Travis Alexander]

It would look like a grown man fighting a kid.

a dream as in it would never happen but is nice to think about.

If you can't grapple Gilbert Burns, you certainly can't grapple Sexual Chocolate
6'2 vs 6'4 ain't much of a stretch, Jones fought shorter competition. But JBJ is so much broader

He'd unquestionably do better than the #1 contender did against Jon

 

[Fergelmince]

He'd probably beat Jones. I hope he gets the fight

Oddly enough, I kind of would be interested in that one.

Jones likely handles him, but would be fun to see how their wrestling matches up.

There is literally ZERO chance that Chimaev does anything to Jones. Khamzat's punching power gets negated by Jones chin and length, but I'm pretty sure Jones would wrestle with Chimaev to prove a point, wich would end up with Khamzat gasping for air while Jon smashes what's left of his lip with elbows.

But yes, I would love to see it, you are right.

That's not a competitive fight. I don't see Khamzat being able to handle a top 20 HW.
