There's no guarantee. Ank has pretty bad fight IQ but still you're right that it's a more interesting matchup for the possibility

Zzzzzzzz

Honestly, Max's KO is the 1st thing I think about when someone says "UFC 300". It not only overshadows the other finishes, it overshadows the event.

Didn't watch but Rogaine is consistently wrong and hyperbolic about nearly everything he speaks on so I'm voting for the other guy

Honestly, I would say 9 times outta 10 a fighter doesn't even have legitimate "haters", rather they have detractors or sceptics who get labeled as such by a really, really annoying fanbase. Periera is a prime example.

You named a few of them already. Hermannsen and Vettori would have been big tests for his grappling. Even Costa, if he decided to actually use his grappling instead of brawling, would have been a bigger test than Strickland. There are others as well. But fact is the dude only had, what, 3 fights...

Tell that to the people who thought Reyes won, they're always the first to bring up the media scores. Meanwhile, every time I rewatch that fight, especially without commentary, I come away more impressed with Jones' defense than anything Reyes did. I think when it comes to close fights, more...

The co-main was a women's fight, calm down

This, both of them have some work cut out for them before anyone should be thinking about a rubber match. That would be like a retirement fight for one or both guys. I'm personally not interested in watching these dudes fight again right now

He was a bit busy destroying 3 generations of the best LHWs, including Cain's buddy Cormier who has always been a true HW. Let's be clear here, going up in weight immediately after you win a belt ain't as impressive as clearing out your own division 2-3 times over. Especially when you sidestep...

Didn't qualify because he lost to olympic gold medalist and world champion David Taylor lol

I'm not one of those guys because I'm not naive enough to believe most athletes are clean, regardless of the sport. But if you wanna go down that route, PEDs weren't against the rules in Pride and were seemingly encouraged. Also you remind me, did he ever get popped while fighting under...

Izzy is a better win than anyone on Khabib's resume, true enough, but the rest? Hell no

Dude think about what you are saying. you are arguing not in favor of historical facts but in favor of the UFC marketing machine twisting the history of the sport to their liking. "Bro yeah Hendo had an objectively superior career but shithead casual fans who equate MMA with the UFC are...

I ain't even mad at them, we all get lost in the hater sauce sometimes. Happens to the best of us. Hell I was a Silva hater for a long ass time but at a certain point you have to stop making excuses and alternate realities and face facts. Jones haters will come around once he retires I think

Firstly, I saw in another thread that Periera wants Ankalaev next and it's a way more Jiri got his shot and got slept in 2 rnds. Wasn't like it was close. I don't think asking him to have another fight before another title shot is outrageous

Ye

You could try it yourself but you won't like what you see. Reyes was not landing a lot and it's because Jones' defense was on point that night. The whole debate reminds me of the Fedor - Arlosvski fight where everybody was creaming their pants over how Arlovski was lighting Fedor up before the...

Waste of a fight for Jones. Didn't he say he was gonna retire after Stipe? He might have 2 left in him depending on how motivated he is. He should fight Stipe and Aspinall then retire for good. Retirement talk is never a good sign and if he loses motivation again you'll see some lackluster...

Hell fucking yeah
