Well in reference to Sam Alvey specifically, I guess that's true. He didn't deserve to be paid by the UFC at all, at least from about 2018 onward.

Battle of the inflated rankings in Costa/Strickland. Makes perfect sense to me.

Does Bo think he's fighting killers or something? Before this last fight, the guys he fought were 0-2 and 2-7 in the UFC lmao. Even Brundage is a .500 level UFC fighter. What a clown.

He's had lots of 'breaks' though, lmao.

He will not fight 5 more times, lmao.

In my view he was already slowing down visibly in the first Mendes fight. I don't recall the timelines, but I believe he had some knee issues back around the Hominick fight or something, kinda coincides with his much more boxing focused style and he was much less springy. Watching him in the WEC...

No shit. The whole point is the UFC is getting Conor back to his roots, beating up .500 record midget brawlers to make the pro wrestling fangirl dorks cream their panties and think Conor is the best in the world.

The fact that Strickland, with his comically limited ability, has continuously gotten bigger fights and bigger placements on the cards is the proof. He was, and should be, a random middling prelim guy like he was for his entire career until he started let's go brandon chants and ranting about...

Yeah I am not saying that Dustin/Justin as people or fighters are similar to Strickland/Colby ... just that to Dana it doesn't make all that big of a difference, because he rightly recognizes that the fanbase from the shithole states are fucking retarded and they can all serve a similar...

PPV > Live Gate. The proof is in the matchmaking. How much preferential treatment do Poirier, Gaethje, Colby, Strickland, etc get to get that sweet shithole state money?

Dana's logic is if he just keeps throwing Dustin/Gaethje/whoever title shots, eventually one will get one of those low % chance wins, then he can protect/promote them the way he wants and make a ton of money.

Dana literally cannot help himself. He just needs to give poirier/gaethje/tattoo'd white guy a million shots at the title until one wins.

Dana went full boxing/pro wrestling after a decade of bashing the model. Now it's a fucking clown circus, and I thought the Ronda/Brock era was bad, it only got worse with and after Conor.

I don't even remember his nose bleeding, so I'm gonna guess no, and his nose has probably just been broken once or several times previously.

Not really. You could be ranked whatever, then Dana wants Conor to come back so he puts him at number 2 or whatever and knocks everyone down. Makes them completely arbitrary. Now if Dana wanted to publish a list of his bestest most favoritist fighters in each division and make it transparent, sure.

Until the rankings actually mean anything, it doesn't really matter. Dana can personally just decide to change them on a whim, so who gives a shit.

Yeah so would everyone.

Neither. They should get a win first.

I mean if you want to argue semantics about what 'wrecked' is, whatever, not interested. I'm from the same city and know Sean's family, I have every reason to be a fan and root for him, but just assessing his skills objectively I don't think he's a top MW, beating whatever version of Adesanya...
