he's ducking Ilia nowStill don’t understand how he ducked when he is about to fight the guy..
hell duck Conor after, and any BW or FW that wins a fight between now and 2030.

You didn't have to use any words if you are just gonna make childish retorts like that. Have a nice day, bud.
The word is latter!During his podcast he talked about how he was impressed by Dustin Poirier's performance vs Saint-Denis who the ladder he coined as extremely dangerous
But in the same breath he said he was shocked Dustin took the fight.
Was it innocuous or did he just admit he himself will
duck when necessary?
He did stumble a little but realized he was past the point of no return lol
Meh. His business decisions don't impact my wallet. I want him to fight the top guys instead of clogging the division. That's all the Chito fight did. We saw that Chito is still not putting it together when he needs to and lost another lopsided decision where he couldn't pull the trigger.Except he is now fighting the guy. Dude made a business decision by taking the most lucrative fight in the division first and then the tougher fights. It's a career for them to make money, not a noble quest to please all the fans while sacrificing their health and earning potential.
yes and honestly, I think O'malley is approaching the best managed career in UFC history, and I honestly mean that. He never fought high ranked guys for peanuts, he took it slow and didn't bite off more than he could chew. Didn't set himself back with mutliple tough losses consecutively.Man, Sean has never minced words or pretend to be tougher than he is. That's why I like him. He's saying that it woulldnt be worth taking a fight against a lower ranked guy who is that dangerous and you can't really argue w that logic.
It's not cowardice, it's handling your career the right way. If you just do whatever UFC says... I mean they don't always have your best interests at heart.
As champ?? Da fuk braSeriously, your just supposed to say yes blindly to any fight that is offered to you , if you ever take into account the offered opponent ranking in relation to how difficult the matchup is stylistically then a bunch of people who don’t fight and know fuck all will accuse you of “ducking” almost like your a coward or something like that .
You are also never allowed to question the financial compensation you are being given or these same dickweeds will accuse you of not being a “real” fighter

Ok , not as champion, I was more ranting in general, not on a specific instanceAs champ?? Da fuk bra
Thanks.And your opinion or wants and needs don't impact him, nor me. But i'm glad you care a lot about what you want.
It resolved a rivalry between the two. Some people like that shit.
Okay.
He 100% ducked. He should be fighting his second legit contender by now. Instead, he clocked his first defense against a guy who had no business being in a title fight. ..and while he was fighting that meaningless, utterly non-competitive gimme, the actual contender might have been knocked off by losing or injury. That’s how records are manipulated.
Thanks.
The TMZ shit doesn't do much for me.
Yep.
he means latter not ladder
That's fair. I just assume that all rivalries are fabricated for marketing.I wouldn't call combat sports rivalries TMZ shit. It goes deep into the psychology of the fighters and can really affect a fight (compared to a fresh match up without much backstory) and how the fighters and their teams approach the rematch. Strategies are vastly different most of the time, at least at the top level. Fascinating stuff to me. But hey, to each their own.
