Lots of great fights, def not the biggest fights or fighters, but a lot of awesome fights.

To me there are some similarities to what topuria was saying about Volk. Of course Volk is a big threat but when you don't have to worry about any overwhelming skill or ko threat, it can make things easier. With that said, Merab is still a tough one to crack as he has well rounded skills...

I wouldn't be surprised if people liked it and it got bigger than expected.

would be hilarious if it gets booked in a couple days

Thats a bit of a different topic. He may not have had the interest to be the greatest and spend his prime years fighting. If he wanted to be the greatest, he'd need to fight more, and we'd need to see his whole trajectory. If he is happy retired, good for him. He woulnd't make it on my GOAT...

Yea if anything, fighters who leave fights on the table are harder to judge as you don't see the whole picture. I think it hurts Khabib that he walked away so early in terms of legacy. Or maybe it helps if you assume he would have gotten crushed in the next fight or two.

This looks to be one of the maybe 3 cards a year where they actually care to stack it. Nice I'm excited. I can't really do the whole watered down card thing, I'm not that big of a fan anymore but definitely genuinely appreciate the fairly rare stacked card.

Who are we supposed to hate on here?

Someone you will hate even more. Not a nice charismatic person like some others suggested.

To me it seems transparent but I'm surprised to see how sherdoggers uniformly seem like they genuinely don't like him and how he behaves. He seems to be an extremely successful troll.

Cejudo is more about making money now vs hustling. He is very capable but doubt he's doing enough to have elite cardio at the moment.

This , and I agree, it is a big fight they can make and hype. Yes they are old and all but casuals don't care or even know probably.

Haha expectations are so low that he can only impress. I'm hopeful given it's a card they likely want to stack.

They want to save that win for Jones, big fight and a lucky fight to get as you can say you beat an ex champ and all. That’s a gift these other guys prob haven’t earned yet.

Similar with sonnen. Shogun def cried out of shame.

Real fan right here.

Free publicity for everyone = more money for him. Lots of people are talking about both fighters and the promotion right now. If it 99 percent doesn't happen, they still get hits and publicity.

It's funny how no one picks up on the same pattern. Sell a fight as a number one contender fight, get the hype. Then change the tune after the fight and they haven't committed to anything. I can't say I'm surprised or anything but it's just funny.

I provide valuable coaching and insights that help them win by posting here. They usually pay me.

I hope he got paid well also. Otherwise no.
