The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- Cannonier, Imavov, Reyes, Rosas on NOW

[dasitmane]

I wanna search this thread for my Kevin Lee takes from 2017 but nothing has changed... hes still pretty versatile. Hes still pretty average. His head movement is still garbage. And hes still carrying too much muscle for the division.

Also is Firas a good coach or just a thoughtful speaker? I live hearing him talk. But his fighters arnt doing so well in there atm.

Not sure what it it about Tristar but it seems like they neuter every exciting striker into a boring point fighter. It’s like fighters go there to improve their wrestling but they lose their aggression.

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the discussion being had last week on this being the rallying moment for fighters to establish a Union

Their paychecks aren't guaranteed and to get one, they would have to subject their bodies and health to the disease. Possibly then exposing it to their families and loved ones-- potentially leading to death

I mean, if this isn't the time....

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

And, there it is

 

[xbiker47]

At this point just post pone everything. The cards they will have this summer will be massive with all this talent on the sideline right now for 4-8 weeks

Colby blowing smoke, knowing damn well he ain't going to take that fight

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

My first thought was Colby, but I'd really want them to have a proper buildup and trash talking press conferences

 

[steevoo1]

I feel like that's the only fight Woodley would take for a short notice opponent.. Hope they don't end up doing Edwards dirty smh.

[Vincent Van Goat]

Guessing this is one of those options?

 

[xbiker47]

The fact white is really trying to put on a card with everything going on blows my mind

New ownership really some devils. Dana is just a puppet (although he's probably still a devil too), has been ever since the new owners took over

 

[shogun]

Good thing they have a union to help out fighters in unpredictable, tough times like this . . . oh wait, never mind.

 

[jayt1202]

UFC brass just need to start cancelling the upcoming cards for the next month or so. They could plan on adding Friday cards in May-June if scheduling allows.

Dana's one of them right-leaning deniers.
This is going to look super ugly if he forges ahead with events and something happens.
Short term thinking > long term thinking is so stupid

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Yuck yuck, yuck

 

[Cashflow]

Imagine being scared of a guy coming off a fight a week earlier

[thehealthinspector]

No mention of 4/18 being delayed

 

[steevoo1]

Every fight til 249

They need to stop playing with people, we ain't getting fights til summer.

 

[jayt1202]

Well with NY and LV and many other state commissions shutting down temporarily what are the other options for 249?? The co just needs to face facts and try to push it out to late summer/fall.

Where the hell does he think he is going to have this Khabib and Tony fight at?

[thehealthinspector]
