Already know people are ready to play the "out of prime" card no matter how Khamzat wins. Probably will say lucky KO or if its decision they will say how bad his cardio is. I hope we finally see him get a title shot after this no matter what.

Cancelled fight? Funny this used to be normal back in the day or guys could fight a few pounds under without the world being in shock. Shows you how much worse the fighter weight cuts have been to have this much worry.

Thats a good point. I'll take all the Pereira fights I can get tbh before he gets too old. Just would hope he gets a fresh matchup.

I guess it's better to lose to the current undefeated UFC goat than a last minute replacement who lost their last fight by a bad injury. Also Pavlovich lost where he is strong at and Gane lost where he was weak.

To be fair the belt has been fucked at HW since Cain atleast, maybe even Randy. Every champ had issues at HW staying on top. The whole belt is cursed. It sucks to go from Ngannou sitting out his contract to Jones injury, but I'll see a real HW champ when it comes.

Agreed. But I guess its better to me because of Pereira's surge and pulling off what he has that makes me less angry than Colby who was sitting around with a win over a retired fighter. Aspinall deserves next Jones fight if this were a 100% sport.

People forget Conor's activity and clips of him shit talking and ability to KO all the guys is what made him as much money as he did. Topuria probably will get paid more than most but he has to go out and reach more interest.

I agree, but we've been fed some bullshit lineups like Leon/Colby for title fights, wouldn't shock me that UFC gives Jones Pereira.

My only issues is I thought Pereira had a broken toe, why does he want to rush out again for a rematch?

Jones probably will get exceptions because of his history in the sport. Not starting good with waiting for his first defense.

Jones should tie or beat HW defense record. Beat Stipe and Pereira, then take Aspinall afterwards. Up to Jones if he has it in the tank.

People were saying before the rematch Vera was Sean's kryptonite and would be able to destroy him with kicks. To me it looked lucky that a kick did the damage it did and I don't think Vera can land like he used to.

It's bizarre. It's like they don't want acknowledge he's good, just focus on any slight blemish. Atleast Whittaker should shut them up assuming Whittaker doesn't mysteriously back out like Costa did. But if Whittaker did back out they'd say Khamzat needs more.

DDP was from EFC and KSW not too long ago. They still pluck regional talent

I figured Aldo would want to leave UFC with a win, one of the reasons I wasn't convinced he was really done after Merab.

He's been talking about leaving so much, but still probably will stay. Some big name fights are there no matter the result of the fight. He'll probably lose, but who knows.

Giga is better than most if you have to stand with him. Allen probably grapples and wins easy.

Pereira better hope that Jones stays retired, because going up to HW that makes an easy matchup for Jones.

He shows up and beats the guy in front of him every time. He signed up for Costa and got Usman but that wasn't enough. Hopefully after beating Whittaker he'll finally get it. Just bizarre how everyone here seems to think he always needs one more test. When most the guys getting titleshots are...

Romero is such a weird case. Beat so many good fighters at MW. Really fought a weird pace to keep cardio. Also made some questionable fight IQ moves. Also started at a late age. He had the skills to be unbeatable but just did enough to not reach the top. I get the reasons why people want to...
