It wouldn’t be dumb the ufc does this quite a bit and it’s international fight week. This is fake news but it isn’t out of the ordinary to have 2 or 3 championship fights for international fight week.

Not to mention, I think the UFC numbers have been flagging a bit lately. They could use a supercard like in the OP to inject some excitement and positive press into the promotion currently.

Going to be a bait and switch. Will be a top selling PPV and then Jones will pull out last minute.


Jones subs Aspinall early round 2 after losing round 1.

Machachev is going to demolish Topuria. Big mistake by Topuria. Islam is the real deal and is going to be too much man for Topuria.

Did Islam demolish Volkanovski in their first fight? Volkanovski gave Islam a real challenge in that fight. The fight ended with Volk raining down ground-and-pound on Islam. Some people think Volk won that fight.

Volk isn't really known for his KO power, Topuria is.

I want to see Islam vs. Topuria next. If they don't make this fight now, then if Islam wins his next title defense, he'll move up to welterweight saying he wants to be double champ and we'll never get to see it.

I don’t judge a future fight based upon how each fighter did against the same opponents. Styles.

Volk when he fought Islam was at the top of his game. Islam took that away from him.

Islam took that away from Oliveria


Islam did not even give anyone a thought they would touch that gold.

He’s different, just like Khabib. You can see it.

Who give you that black belt bratha, has submitted 5 BJJ black belts.

Topuria bit off more than he can chew.

Fair enough, but Islam himself is saying he doesn't want to fight another 'little guy' as a reason not to fight Topuria. As if he didn't get taken to the limit by a little guy.

All I'm saying is--let's see it. If they don't make this fight now, it might never happen. It's like Conor vs. Khabib lite.

Topuria is talking all kinds of trash, so let's see Islam smesh him. Islam taking the top of Topuria's game away from him too is a real possibility. I just want to see it.

alright changed this up to UFC mexico city.

pretty decent scraps for a fight night.


def interested to see gastellum vs pyfer. ive been hearing alot of chatter where people think pyfer can finish gastellum.

moreno vs erceg will be interesting to see how erceg bounces back from his KO to KKF after putting on agreat performance against pantoja. also can moreno finally get the no wins in mexico monkey off of his back.

Changing the title and content of this thread instead of just making a new one was dumb AF.
