Yep. If you're in the Ultimate Fighting Championship, you should have to actually fight. You wanna wrestle, start a wrestling league.

Ok, now let's see what Topuria says on X.

Always injured

I'm convinced an Ilia/Islam fight looks like Valentina/Zhang tonight.

Islam said open the White House. You must be out of your f ukin mind.

There's a better chance of Ken Shamrock and Royce Gracie fighting on the White House card than security letting Islam and Kahbib's Dagestan terrorist crew within 2 miles of the White House lawn.

Him vs Usman is probably next assuming they would fight

Couldn’t watch tonight fellas. Sounds like the main event went pretty much how everyone expected. Sad to see Brady lost, had high hopes he’d be the next American champ at 170

Ilia should stay in the kid’s lane at LW. He wound get ragdolled vs Islam at WW.

That young Cameroon monster dude at 185 is the first guy I think of.
Ateba Gautier. Yeah that dude is a freak athlete amongst boys when he's in the ring. Hasn't fought anybody yet but it's only a matter of time before he gets a legit win that will get some eyeballs on him.
Michael Morales is special though. I know we tend to jump on hype trains too early from time to time but Morales is a special fighter. Guy has Poatan like potential at 170. Elite hand power and speed, great reach, young fighter as well. Sean Brady is no joke and Morales put it on him like he's done everyone else before. Morales will eventually get beat once he starts facing the elite of the elite but damn that guy just has it. Super exciting fighter to watch.

Pride also had plenty of rigged fights and lots of grappling

It’s called winning
You should try a judo class or any type of grappling art in your area

Then it’s glorified kickboxing

I love you man, but you say the same thing every time it's a wrestling frick fest. You dont need to train to appreciate how good Islam is at grappling. I dont think anyone says he isn't incredible.
But you can also be a fan of the sport and hate that fighting style. It is boring as frick and overall bad for the sport.

A lot of them train with Olympic caliber wrestlers all year round. It’s different

It’s GSP redux

I didn’t hear anyone complain when Randy Couture or Matt Hughes, Daniel Cormier, GSP, or Merab wrestled their way to a win. But when Islam does it, it’s boring? He is the only current champ to finish 8 of his last 10 UFC opponents while winning all 10.
And look at the varieties of those finished:
Darce
Darce
Head kick KO
Arm Triangle
TKO punches
Kimura
Rear naked choke
Arm Triangle
No one has this kind of arsenal. Daniel Cormier in 26 fights never had a Darce. I’ve never seen GOAT GSP head kick KOed anyone. Did Couture ever Kimora anyone? Merab has 2 finishes in 16 UFC fights. What are you talking about? You only whining because you don’t like Makhachev. If you were a real fan of the sport, you’d know what’s up.
