    Overeem doesn't see Alex Pereira as a champion

    Do you realize the irony of Alex literally winning every single one of those fights? They could not out grapple him to victory, by points, damage or submission. That is the concept of good counter grappling.

    Overeem doesn't see Alex Pereira as a champion

    He shook off Jiri like he had nothing for him. Jan was able to lay in his guard, but couldn't land any big shots, and got absolutely nowhere with submissions. These are his peers in the division, these are world class 205lbs fighters. They can't out grapple Alex to beat him. Yes, Alex now...

    Media Arman Tsarukyan: Michael Chandler "Never Uses His Brain, Very One Round Fighter" - Predicts Mcgregor Wins

    Neither of these guys have fought in years, and Conor is coming off a life changing surgery. Nobody has any idea how these two will look.

    News White to Aspinall: Defend Interim Title or Sit on the Shelf. You Don't Get Jones.

    Whatever you did half a decade ago is irrelevant. Stipe is completely irrelevant and retired. He will come out of retirement, coming off a bad KO loss, to fight Jones. It is patently absurd from every angle. Jon should defend or vacate against the #1 contender, but the UFC runs this like the...

    Deiveson is damn good

    His age is the problem, not his size. The dude has plenty of firepower at 135lbs and he's good at everything. A few years ago, he's in the title mix.

    Media Rogan and Holloway talk about Jamahal/Alex Ref Nutshot

    The both stopped, literally touch gloves, then resume fighting. Hill throws his own punch, its just not as good as Alex's strike. This is a completely absurd notion.

    Media Chris Weidman compares Alex Pereira to Ben Askren: ‘It’s such a deficiency in what we’ve seen so far’

    Chis is accurately describing how shitty Alex was at grappling in the first fight with Izzy. He's a consummate professional however and well trained by Glover, so his counter wrestling has massively improved in the last two years. At this point Alex is going to be a problem for everyone, and...

    Media Chris Weidman compares Alex Pereira to Ben Askren: ‘It’s such a deficiency in what we’ve seen so far’

    The world champion at 185lbs was Izzy, who tried and successfully took him down. Izzy just also sucks at grappling so he couldn't win the fight that way. Then Jan took him down and attempted to win on the mat - anyone with brains will agree Jan is a very competent MMA grappler. He didn't...

    Media Dricus: I think Jiri should go down to MW. I saw his weight in the PI and he walks around lighter than I do

    Some folks in here likely do not know Driccus fought at welterweight before moving up to 185lbs. He's not a particularly "big" middleweight, he's just heavily muscled. Driccus could easily drop 5-7lbs of body mass and have a less aggressive water cut fight week. Its really a personal choice...

    Media Dricus: I think Jiri should go down to MW. I saw his weight in the PI and he walks around lighter than I do

    Cut to the picture of Geroges begging for his title shot in a beanie cap at UFC 56 looking like a cartoon superhero character. No need to even post it, everyone reading this can picture it lmao GSP was absurdly lean and jacked on his way up. He looked (and was) much physically bigger than a...

    Does Conor get a title shot with win over Chandler?

    Conor has two fights left on his contract https://news.yahoo.com/conor-mcgregor-provides-ufc-contract-112316776.html I would also bet he has a 5 year sunset clause, which is absolute regardless of tolling.

    Does Conor get a title shot with win over Chandler?

    The UFC will do whatever maximizes profit. If Conor agrees to fight in a revenue split that makes the company more money by booking a title fight, that is what they will do.

    Rumored Bo Nickal vs Jacob Malkoun Confirmed By Malkoun - UFC 302 - June 1st

    I would bet a substantial amount of money this fight makes Bo look bad, even in victory. The problem is the UFC put Bo on UFC 300 to squeeze some ROI out of him while he's not getting paid much. They really can't book him with another Cody Brundage, its going to be someone who actually belongs...

    Max Should Be the Number 2 Ranked Lightweight Right Now, Right?

    Because this is common sense and accurate.

    Max Should Be the Number 2 Ranked Lightweight Right Now, Right?

    Rankings are an indexing of your fights in the division over time. Max has had one fight at lightweight in the last 5 years and is 1-1 overall. The idea that you magically take someones ranking by beating them is logically bad, unless you are already nearby peers in the division. It is much...

    Rumored Bo Nickal vs Jacob Malkoun Confirmed By Malkoun - UFC 302 - June 1st

    If you didn't watch the fight, Malkoun absolutely did not beat the living anything out of Petroski. He cracked his head on Malkoun's hip doing a take down, then wobbled around grabbing at air, before collapsing. Malkoun didn't land a single strike in the exchange. Don't take my word for it...

    Will Topuria be bigger than Mcgregor?

    Conor was lighting in a bottle, right place right time stuff. It crossed over to pop culture in a way that is fairly unique in MMA. Topuria is almost completely unknown outside of MMA and his small home country. He's not going airborne like Conor did.
