Media Movsar Evloev fires shots at Brian Ortega for being ranked too high

[BoxerMaurits]

 

[VinceArch]

He's not wrong.

 

[blaseblase]

Has a point. He shouldn't even be ranked.

 

[Portland8242]

Has lost 3 out of 4, and has 4 fights in 5 years.

Last time he fought was a year and half ago now.

What the actual fuck do they let this clown rank squat for.

 

[TheMMAnalyst]

He’s right.

His last win over 3 years ago against now retired KZ [edit - mistakenly put it at 1.5 years lol]

Prior win to that was over 5 years ago against now retired Frankie.

2 wins in 5 years over washed legends = permanent top 5 ranking if the UFC wants it to be.

 

[TriangleMonkey]

Let them bang

 

[Luthien]

I can't even remember Ortega's last fight? Was it when Max turned his face into hamburger meat? *Shrug*

 

[Rorschachxx]

Ortegas last win was Zombie in late 2020. Before that, Frankie in early 2018.

Its 2024. Both are retired. The problem isn't how high Ortega is ranked, but rather the fact he is ranked at all.

As always, rankings are utter bullshit and have zero meaning.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Yeah Ortega has been floating between number 2 and 4 for many years, its ridiculous lol. Barely ever fights.

It was when Yair ripped his arm out and fans said it "didn't count" because it was a "freak injury" rather than a "real sub" so now they're doing a very dumb rematch of that fight rather than putting together something fresh

 

[Fatback96]

He’s right you know. The guy barely fights.

When he does fight, he changes his hair and fighting style slightly and convinces the entire MMA community he’s a new man lol

 

[theTKDguy]

Max finished ortega early, he was good. He shouldn't be ranked.

 

[Trabaho]

Has lost 3 out of 4, and has 4 fights in 5 years.

Last time he fought was a year and half ago now.

What the actual fuck do they let this clown rank squat for.

Why are you calling a elite figher a clown ? He is not rank squatting, he is simply inactive. Curently injured. They are ranking him, he is not ranking himself. You are making all of us look like fools on sherdog.

 

[Krixes]

I love watching Ortega fight but no way he should be in the top 5.

 

[Blastbeat]

i guess Movsar finally is realizing what we all know - rankings are arbitrary.

 

[arcadeperfect]

Ortega and Covington are permanently in the top 5 regardless of any circumstances.

 

[RockyLockridge]

Ortega should not be ranked, fullstop.

 

[Elvis.]

Hasn’t won a fight in more than 3 years , but the ufc rankings mean sweet fa anyway

 

[ArtardFiesta]

ortega is a rank squatter.
after holloway kicked his ass, the dude only takes title fights or fights where he is guareenteed a title shot if he wins next.
ortega is likely to get a rematch at volk despite losing 2 fights in a row if he beats yair.

i guess he can get away with it. if he doesn't get a fight that keeps in the title situation he would just retire and influence/model

 

[CobraCobretti]

Remind how mant decisions this Elon guy had in a row?
