The average fan can’t pronounce his last name what star
He is a russian here in Australia, getting 5 star treatment, fans media, trust me he is a star not like Conor but he is one.

Leon has actually blown up in the UK.
Alex is Brazilian and has a ton of kickboxing crossover fans.
Islam has all of Khabib supporters/Dagestan supporters.
Volkanovski is big in Australia, a fucking famous tennis player was wearing his tee.
Moreno is always bringing in the Mexican market.
I think their champions are actually pretty damn good for star power.
Even if he wins it won't be enoughBless Jon Jones... going to save the UFC from dying.
casuals don’t know or get excited about them at all
the big problem is the cards are horrible lately …. The next 3 ufc cards are horrendous on paper … I’m a diehard who bets every fight if every card - and I have a hard time getting excited for any upcoming card
TS is correct, none of these guys can generate PPV #s.
"Islam has all of Khabib supporters/Dagestan supporters."
That’s the point, the only guys who will get more than 1 title defense are islam and volk. Others like hill and edwards will probably be cut from the ufc in the next 4.All the current champions are relatively new.
Give it time.
I mean, Jones, Silva and GSP were dominant champions that had like 10+ title defenses. Aldo, too.
Compare that to the champions in 2011
Although Edgar is one of my personal top 3 favorites, BJ Penn certainly had more star power.HOLY FUCKING DIMES.
What a line up, goated as fuck.
I don't disagree TS. But I think it will change. We might not ever see the level of greatness we saw 11 years ago. But this crop of Champs is mighty green they will come around. Volk is solid also. People like him. I mean what's not to like?Name a time where there was a worst roster of champions as per combined star power
Light Heavyweight Jamahal Hill
Middleweight Alex Pereira
Welterweight Leon Edwards
Lightweight Islam Makhachev
Featherweight Alexander Volkanovski
Bantamweight Aljamain Sterling
Flyweight Brandon Moreno
Nah I think I'll stay and complain.Y'all are welcome to delete your accounts and move onto something you find more interesting. MMA has lost its appeal with you. Fine. Don't complain about it, move on
it took him a 5th round head kick to get famous but where were all those uk people before that?Leon has actually blown up in the UK.
