Henry’s annoying but I wouldn’t count him out… he always shows up
Except for the last two years, you're right.

Valid pointExcept for the last two years, you're right.
I don't know what we're even disagreeing about really lol. I think winning a gold medal is insane, I just don't think that puts him in the same class as GSP, Anderson, etc. in MMA. If he's the "best combat sports athlete" whatever, it's something he invented because he isn't the best in Wrestling or MMA lol. Nobody is competing to be the "best combat sports athlete"Nobody talked about it because nobody has been a 2 division champ and gotten gold in the olympics... right?
...a.) why wouldn't you put Ronda above them in 'combat sports?' She's a more accomplished athlete across multiple combatives
b.) Why would I put her above Val and Nunes in MMA for non-MMA accomplishments?
They're also team sports. It's hard to factor in. I guess you could say wins a major in tennis and golf? haha.
doesn't matter how connected they are. I'll wait for a list of gold medal athletes who have come to MMA and won a title, god forbid 2.
It's actually a smart match up and can use to raise the stock of either fighter. If I was Dana/UFC I would do the fight. It was obvious they wanted Ortega to win so I don't think they mind risking Volk losing. Either way Volk or Cejudo winning can be a plus for them. Too many people think too small. Why wouldn't UFC want to do something that hasn't been done before? Where are the 3 division champions? Where are the fighters that even want to try to be 3 division champ? How many fighters are actually 2 division champs? But yes... focusing on a random fight in just one division is the smart move according to sherdog.The only joke I can see is that you seriously think he's got a chance in hell of getting the Volk fight. He's not getting it and he's smart enough to know it. Hence he's honeydicking his fanboys like you in order to keep his name out there.
This thread is from 3 months ago it's not recent.Cejudo is getting so boring. At this point he's just a clout chaser.
UFC does whatever they want. Would you be surprised to see Henry fighting in March or April? If they want Henry to fight they'll make it happen though I don't see a fight worth it to the UFC. At least not with Yan vs Aljo upcoming.Cejudo selling Wolf Tickets
July 2020 he officially left testing.
Once his name is back in the system then we can talk
