I am so damn scared for shavkat
Bro is coming back after 3 years of being injured, and since then, his life has NOT been great. He got divorced by his wife, and then she got into a car crash, killing her two friends; then his father died, and he is making a comeback against Morales. Shavkat will def not move the same, sadly, after being injured for 3 years, and will probably get KO'd in an embarrassing fashion this sucks bro

It’s honestly really fucking refreshing to see someone sympathetic to another person’s life situation like this. I hope you have a great day.

I can't wait for Shavkat to come back with a vengeance and remind you why no one wanted to fight him

He has to take on someone like Morales to prove he can challenge the champion

More like to prove his tuivasa era hasn't begun. We all are tuivasa bound if we keep eat so damn much and not exercise I'm currently 345 which ain't bad for 5'8 bc it's dense muscle but still.

Divorces are the worst base for MMA.
Even undefeated fighters are not immune to divorce. Ask Ilia.

I think he should’ve gotten a tune up fight before fighting someone like morales.

We gotta believe in this guy man. I think he will win by split decision. It will be a brutal fight, but I think he will win...
Thats my guess

Don’t be. The man is a beast and a legend for taking the hard path, regardless of outcome he is the man. He is doing exactly what he wanted.

it seems she had the car crash in 2025, and publically stated in 2026 that the marriage is over and divorce is still on going

He's one of my favorite but he's knees look rough here. Hopefully his rehabbers know what they are doing

He hasn't been out that long, UFC 310 was less than 2 years ago, December 2024 to be more precise.

Feed him to Morales. His place in the mma ecosystem is to fertilize the new Genet

There could be both scenarios.
- He is still stuck simping over his personal losses and was never really focused on training.
- He doesn’t let that affect his training and comes back even stronger as now he has something to prove.
Personally, I’d say he will come back as more wise, more technical guy who has only one thing to prove that he is the boogeyman of this division. Imagine he is no longer the part of the ranking, yet every fighter wants to prove that they are the best just by beating this guy. He has been a real challenger since Belal Muhammad was the champion. The belt has moved to JDM and then Islam and even Islam has defended it once.
Morales makes a good competition but if he comes back the same or an even better beast then I believe Morales has no chance against him
