Weight classes are a handicap.
I understand why they exist and the purpose they serve for the sport. Weight classes are critically important for a multitude of reasons.
But still, they are a handicap to equalize the competition of fighting. If all we care about is who wins a fight, top...
Ige had heart and toughness but he got out skilled and out powered. Evloev keeps looking good but he will find greater challenges in the division from here on out.

“MERAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABBB!!!!!”
I’m not sure how to call this one. We’ve seen Sandhagen lose to Aljo with grappling heavy game but I suppose we’ve never seen Merab against a striker as diverse and dangerous from anywhere as Sandhagen is...
It’s hard to go wrong at BW for a good matchup but some fights make more sense than others for the division. I think I prefer Vera vs. Sandhagen for the division but regardless…

I would be happy for more liberal use of 10-10 (and 10-8, 10-7) under an open scoring system so the fighters/corners can know where they stand and adjust gameplan/strategy during the fight to compensate for their position.
Combine that with flatter contracts that combine show+win into...
I think this will be a very fun scrap. I underestimated Moicano the last time against Alex but RDA is still a beast, too.
I’ll be happy with a good fight no matter who wins here.
