i'm giving him credit. i'm saying he should be in contention. but when you get your wins that way, have a nickname "Remember the Name" and try so hard to get people to like you, it's tough to get a title shot in the UFC over other contenders who excite the fansSuch a weasely way to discredit 5 top 10 wins in a row lol
couldn't have said it betterThey’ve got to hope he gets beat so they can cut him and let him dominate in PFL to make the ufc look that much better. His style is just too boring to keep around
The Khamzat speech is an interesting example. He hasn't fought since that speech however so it isn't a ringing endorsement that TKO holdings is the most accepting company. Back to my point though... Khamzat isn't Palestinian. So it is really apples to oranges. Plus it doesn't hurt that he spoke in Chechen so probably only a handful of hardcore fans on Sherdog understood that speech. I'd bet close to 100% of casuals only understood the English part obviously... and TKO knows that.
UPDATE POST: So the first fight since Khamzat's speech is the single hardest stylistic match-up possible at either WW or MW. Interesting.i do accept your point on Khamzat though. i didn't think of it like that but that could be true.
His last win just got brutally finished by #12. He should try fighting again.
It's not my fault Belal isn't making a good case for why he deserves the next title shot by sitting on his ass doing nothing.
You know the caucus is not in the middle east, right?So what if he's middle eastern? Are you pretending that matters? You know those caucus boys do very well in the UFC? You sound ignorant
The difference is Colby kept shit talking and keeping his name in the news while he sat on his ass not fighting.Yeah, we know sitting on his ass doing nothing has never worked for a welterweight contender.
He is doing nothing because he's being CLEARLY kept in limbo by the organization on purpose.The difference is Colby kept shit talking and keeping his name in the news while he sat on his ass not fighting.
Belal is literally doing nothing.
Belal should go to PFL and establish his dominance by winning their tournament in two weight classes then come back for a big money fight with Leon. Or he could sit out and complain.
He can fight someone else in the top 5 seeing as he's fought none of the current ones, or he should be on every single podcast, social media, MMA news, etc., he can get on just putting himself out there hoping the UFC picks him over Shavkat.He is doing nothing because he's being CLEARLY kept in limbo by the organization on purpose.
I agree with you though for once... he should be doing shit talking now that it is obvious that's his only choice. He should go nuclear against the org and point out he is being marginalized for explicitly political reasons.
That would hit harder than "nerds and virgins" but the organization would fire him to make an example that no divergence would be tolerated / censorship is in full force. I think Belal should actually do that to show a martyr example against clear corruption / censorship.
His career is over regardless. Now he gets to pick whether it be by sitting on a couch until he is released (the prescribed TKO plan) or be on his own terms taking a stand against injustice.
He fought multiple people in the top 5 and beat them already. Then you (corporate poster) demanded he fight another. If he wins a 3rd fight in the top 5 you'd demand a 4th. Then if he won that you'd demand a 5th.He can fight someone else in the top 5 seeing as he's fought none of the current ones, or he should be on every single podcast, social media, MMA news, etc., he can get on just putting himself out there hoping the UFC picks him over Shavkat.
Either would be better than the radio silence he's instead done. His wins gets worse as time goes on and everybody else still being out there makes you forget he's #2.
But exciting the fans is not what you said. You said what has he done, and continue to call it "that way." He got his wins, over the best talent available, to an amount pretty much unheard of.i'm giving him credit. i'm saying he should be in contention. but when you get your wins that way, have a nickname "Remember the Name" and try so hard to get people to like you, it's tough to get a title shot in the UFC over other contenders who excite the fans
Na, that's Baal. You're thinking of the guy who wrote Soul SistaWho's Blahl? Isn't he the bad guy in Diablo II?
I don't think he has to fight anybody to get a title shot. Certainly Shavkat and Jack don't deserve it over him when he beat their opponents first. Colby just had one and lost it, and Usman's lost 2 now and semi-moved to MW.He fought multiple people in the top 5 and beat them already. Then you (corporate poster) demanded he fight another. If he wins a 3rd fight in the top 5 you'd demand a 4th. Then if he won that you'd demand a 5th.
He knows this now. And he has chosen to stay silent (for now) rather than point out the game is rigged and the rigging is political in nature. I believe he should not remain silent any longer. We'll see...
