Would be the last fight on Conor's contract. He may not want to be stuck under a champions clause. Not sure if a BMF belt would keep him under contract.

Definitely Ankalaev. Both divisions have been a mess for a while. No need to clog them up further.

He's got 2 fights left on his contract so most likely his plan is to get those done then cash in with a Saudi payday or 2. He may not even want a title fight as a win would get him stuck under a champions clause.

It's on the same day as Islam vs Poirier and Beterbiev vs Bivol too

Nah, Belal v Leon will be announced for the UK event. The breakdowns when Belal 50-45s Max and raises the BMF belt would be a laugh though

That was in the days of fighters having sponsors. His sponsors thought they got higher visibility as a prelim headliner

Bring back Wandy

From what Trevor said on the podcast UFC need to own the trademark on the gloves

Seeing him walking into MSG hobbling like an old man killed it for me. That was the night this fight was meant to take place too, Jon had only pulled out 2 weeks before. Don't know how anyone could be excited for this fight after seeing that.

Wait and see what dana says a year or 2 after Jon retires.

Maybe if it was a lower down fight to see how he looks. Not getting shoved into a title fight with the division being stalled over a year for it to happen

I'd say the Saudi card in June is most likely.

He was complaining he had to give Bellator a cut from his Jake Paul fight?

Probably just bullshit totry to keep his name out there

You'd have to be an idiot to think a guy on a 7 fight win streak with 2 top 10 wins would be looking to fight a #13 ranked opponent. People who just lost fight down, not people on win streaks. This fight does nothing for him. If he wins he MVP suddenly becomes a guy who only beat cans and he...

Damn, as if he didn't take enough damage in the fight he's decided to inflict even more on himself. This whole myth about Diaz has become hilarious. Without time limits we'd have just seen Rory and Bendo ragdolling him for hours

Really depends on commissions and gambling authorities. Could have his pay withheld and commissions may have an issue licensing him in the future. Not sure if there could be legal ramifications, things get murky when gambling is involved. Would certainly ruin his reputation. A small group would...

Dana not wanting to help a Jake Paul card is probably the answer. He'll let them box most of the time but if it's a promoter or opponent he doesn't like he'll block it. GSP had that problem too

It's because of the details about Forest that came out later. He was still suffering from the Rashad TKO, had been knocked out twice in training, was having panic attacks and on Xanax. There were quite a few calling it fixed at the time. No knock on Andy, he put on a display as he should but...

This is stupid. So the opponent has to go to the effort and expense of starting a camp for a fight that probably won't happen. Are the UFC paying them for that if the fight doesn't happen?
