Jones is the man, no doubt.

BUT, does that belt really mean anything since the real heavyweight champ is gone?

The only fight that matters, IMO is Jones vs Ngannou and Dana needs to humble his bald ass and beg Francis to come back.

I think Stipe is almost as hard a fight for jones than Francis. I think Jon just rides Francis to the ground and wins an easy decision. Stipe is more well rounded and can still Crack on the feet like a Heavyweight.

I think Francis would be focusing so much on the take down defense he wouldn't be throwing his shots with the same frequency or intensity against Jones. Of course Francis could knockout anyone but that's his only chance. He's not winning a decision IMO.

Fuck Dana Wife-Beater.  There's no changing in this piece of shit. He's doing his usual parade to de-legitimize whoever exits the UFC on-top.  Saying OVER AND OVER that Francis Ngannou is "scared," "doesn't want to fight," and would have lost to Jon Jones in the same way.

Dana Wife-beater needed to go before he hit his wife on camera.  He has successfully convinced his employers (and much of the public) that the UFC doesn't exist without him.

God it would be so awesome to have the UFC, and the sport at large, not represented by this wife-beating asshole.

I agree with that, UFC would be better off in different hands.

The fighter pay thing has been on my mind a lot lately. Athletes in other sports are making hundreds of millions of dollars. Pretty crazy that some of the top fighters in the world are only getting a couple hundred grand per fight.

Izzy really is probably one of, if not the best counter striker I have seen in the UFC. The way he just played opossum and put Pereira to sleep was art.

it was pretty crazy, it was like he gave him that left which lifted Pereiras head up into the perfect spot for his right hand.

I also think Izzys leg was compromised earlier than he likely anticipated and playing possum was a last resort hail mary that worked out. then again, he looked like he was giving into those leg kicks/trying to sell it at times. like an exaggeration/bend of the leg when recieving.

I can't tell if israel isn't good at checking leg kicks against other top lvl kickboxers or if he just hasn't had to/isn't use to having to check leg kicks since he is always the aggressor-one throwing the kicks

I don't know that he was playing possum.  He admitted that he wasn't even sure what he hit him with when it happened- seemed to surprise himself.  I think he's just THAT well-practiced as a counter striker.

I have been a long time UFC fan from the first time I watched the sport @ UFC 4 when Dan 'The Beast' Severn dominated everyone up to and including Royce Gracie. 
When Gracie pulled off that sick triangle after close to 20 minutes of back time, I knew I was a fan.

FFWD to years later, I was fortunate enough to interview many fighters including Stephan Bonnar and Forrest Griffin on the cusp of creating greatness, Matt Hughes before he choked out Frank Trigg for the 2nd time, and even Chuck Liddell (fun fact - Chuck owned a Chihuahua and it was noisy AF.  My first UFC event was UFC 57 where Chuck Liddell retired Randy Couture - and for this event I had my media credentials where I met A LOT of the legends that we know today (some of which were in their infancy of the sport)  Hell, Joe Rogan even had hair then (and yes he is short AF)
I have been a part of the local MMA scene for the past 20 or so years but have pseudo 'hung up the mic' but still have many many friends in the business. 

I still get a warm spot in my heart/head when I see a fighter that I roared the name of or worked with on the amateur circuit that finally made it to the UFC or other major organization. 

So yes.  I am a bit of a fan. :wink:

"Francis Ngannou doesn't want to fight.  Francis is SCARED to fight Jon Jones.  That's why he left the UFC to take a massively better contract with another organization and immediately booked a match with the current best heavyweight of boxing- a sport he's never professionally competed in.

Because Francis Ngannou is scared to fight."

Looks like Francis did it smart w money, etc., and I don't think he's scared of Jones. Nevertheless, Jones makes it looks pretty easy controlling and sub imo. Puncher's chance FN would have.

Francis beat Dana, that's for sure, so congrats to him for that.

The fans still lost though, in my opinion. A boxing match with Tyson Fury? What exactly does that prove? If he wins, does he get the belt and become the greatest boxer ever? No. If Tyson wins, is he the baddest dude on the planet or is he just a boxer who beat an MMA fighter? I seriously don't get the point. It doesn't excite me in any way, shape or form.

And we all know damn well there's nobody in the PFL that will be a worthy challenger. So who actually cares about anything he does there?

Yes I know he's getting the bag. Like I said, HE won, that's great. But the rest of the world lost. Francis Ngannou will never compete in a fight that is worth watching ever again.

Do you think that statement's a bit rash?  You don't think there will be a post-UFC Francis Ngannou entertainment product worth watching?

Even if that's true, he's given a lot of the sport/org.  You could view this as an intelligent retirement. At the end of the day, as much as I want to see my favorite fighters continue indefinitely to win in the UFC Octagon, sometimes it's best to see them quit while they're ahead and win at life.

And maybe, just maybe this will be a precedent that has smidge of an impact on the UFC's contract structure and fighter treatment.  Probably not. But maybe.

Some bangers tonight, Jan vs the Poatan, and Poirier Gaethje. :rockon:

Jan striking I can see, maybe wrestling but Poatan is a monster. I'll go with Poirier, not sure why. More refined technique maybe. Other fun ones, Chiesa, Ferguson, Lewis. Wonderboy got screwed and he's getting up there in years. What's his name didn't make weight. Would rather see Wonderboy go ahead and fight but negotiations didn't make it.

I’m so stoked for the card tonight. We’ll see how hard Poatan hits by how quick Jan takes him down, if at all. With Jan’s tendency to end his combos with the liver kick and Alex’s kickboxing background, it’s going to be interesting.

The main event though… I think Gaethje has something to prove. He’s a different fighter than when they fought the first time. That’s definitely going to be a war and hopefully a card for the ages.

Tony has a lot on the line too. Pulling a knife at the press conference… I feel like it’s do or die time for him with the skid he’s on. It’s going to be great.

Let’s go!

I think this statement rings true in the fact that (currently) the UFC is THE brand for MMA.  Not boxing, not submission grappling, not kickboxing, MMA.

When fighters defect from the 'big dog in town' (whether due to their own volition or otherwise) they may have a better chance at success financially or health wise, but for the fairweather MMA fan they are now insignificant.

How many NFL fans (that actually follow a team) track their players when they go to another league?  What about WNBA fans? (the few)  Did you follow Shitknee Grimer when he/she went to  Russia to play? 

From what I have witnessed (as someone who works in the business)  the common fan is a fan of UFC.  Not MMA per se, but UFC. 

And if you are in the UFC, you are relevant.

Finally getting around to watching the fights as I was traveling and didn't stay up for them Saturday.

Black Beast! lol, his antics and interviews are maybe better than the fights, but that switch flying knee a great way to end his contract. Surely they'll sign him again? Not with the elite but more KOs than anyone I think at 14.

Jan and Poatan deserved a finish. Can't always get what you want. Actually I only found so far a vid of the third round. Looked like  a good technical fight.

And Gaethje! I don't like seeing either one lose, but I think they're 1-1 now. Hoping for a trilogy if the case.

Man, I don’t know if they’ll resign him. I get he has a record but he just isn’t that power house with his fists anymore in my opinion. I feel like all they have to do is put him in with a wrestler and it’s a wrap again.

Bro, I couldn’t agree with you more, Yan and Poatan 1,000% deserved a finish. Through a pretty inebriated perspective, I think Jan got robbed. I need to go back and watch it sober.

That head kick from Gaethje, wow, it was art. I really enjoy the sport of UFC, anything can happen at anytime.

Enjoy the card. It was awesome.

What do yall think about this week's headliner?

If Sean wins I feel he will pick and choose opponents and ruin the division. He has already stated he only cares about PPV buys and has no interest in guys like Cory or Merab. He wants the Chito rematch which is cool and all but Chito clearly isn't the best in the division.

But if Aljo wins he is going to move up so i don't know what to think about that either. :shrug:
