Ah that's hugely disappointing. Ortega pops his shoulder in the first round.

Charles vs Islam confirmed for October. I guess Charles had already beaten everyone else so it’s the fight to make, but it’s really surprising to me that Islam has managed to climb the rankings through a win streak where he hasn’t fought anyone of major significance.

I do like him but if he didn't have Khabib with him, he would be fighting the likes of Dariush and Chandler to get to the title. Charles is too fucking good, like the Jon Jones of the LW division.

Has he beat a top ten fighter yet?

Yeah he looks like he has the potential to be a champion but the fact that his best win is against Hooker on short notice doesn’t exactly scream title shot. Like you said though I guess the Khabib factor has loomed large and helped him out here.

How he was still standing and had the energy to finish him off is baffling. Absolute warrior.

What a pointless fight. Diaz is getting killed

I've been a good boy · « **Reply #30127 on:** July 20, 2022, 08:06:35 am »

Very bad fight for Diaz, he's not winning this one. Dana has well and truly sacrificed him in his last ever UFC fight.

Makes sense for Chimaev though, this is exactly the kind of big name he needs on his CV to bring his stock up.

BER · « **Reply #30128 on:** July 20, 2022, 12:20:42 pm »

Such scumbags the UFC.

Chimaev's stock is already up, he's not going to win any new fans beating up a mismatched Nate Diaz.

I'd love it...

I suppose he needs a fight, and his hype is so big at the moment they want him to fight someone with a big reputation while he waits for his shot.

If you look at the rankings:

Usman - Champ
Covington - Doesn't seem to want the fight
Chimaev
Burns - Last fight
Muhammed - ??
Edwards - Fighting for title next

Muhammed is the only one that he could fight, but I reckon they want him in a high profile fight while he stock is still up.

It's more about diminishing Diaz and sending him on his way with a heavy loss.

Sean Brady was the obvious fight for Chimaev or the Burns rematch, plus a few options at MW.

Never understood the popularity of the Diaz brothers.

leinad · « **Reply #30132 on:** July 20, 2022, 09:41:00 pm »

It's gonna be exactly like his fight with Rory, hopefully Chimaev finishes him though.

Rosario · « **Reply #30133 on:** July 21, 2022, 05:07:08 am »

Absolute bullshit from the UFC strong arming Diaz into a fight that he has next to no shot in just because he won’t sign a new contract.

A much more silly fight is Yan facing O’Mallet

I'm looking forward to seeing that bellend get smoked by Yan.

What are the UFC matchmakers smoking this week? That is an even bigger mismatch than Diaz/Chimaev, Yan will destroy him. If Aspinall beats Blaydes this weekend, I'm willing to bet they put him in there v Ngannou next.

Flaccido Dongingo · « **Reply #30137 on:** July 21, 2022, 08:59:47 am »

Oliviera is 13/8 against Islam, I'll be lumping on at that price.

They could potentially put him in there with Ngannou, but let’s see how he recovers. Saying that he’s back on the pads so on course for a comeback fight early next year. I think Gane or Lewis could be next for him if he wins tomorrow though.

And then there’s Jones, will he ever make the step up to HW? Because he’s guaranteed a title shot if he ever does.

Quite astounding the amount of Reds on twitter supporting Paddy the racist. Nothing new from the gobby c*nt but loads seem to have no issue with his previous comments.

I'm looking forward to him getting picked apart by a good fighter, the UFC are throwing cannon fodder at him to get him up the rankings, wouldn't even take a top 10 fighter, someone like Gamrot would dismantle him, he's a fucking bellend, I do like Molly McCann though.

EDIT - Just seen Gamrot is in the top 10 now, but my point still stands, that a decent fighter beats him easily.

He's got a shit personality as well, comes across as a massive scumbag. Hope they throw him in at the deep end in his next fight, would love to see him wince in pain.

A lot of people aren’t aware of his racist tweets, but then there are some who choose to ignore it.

Looks like his Twitter account has been suspended again!

Aye I muted him, didn't realise I wasn't the only one who was sick listening to him. Trying to be like McGregor who is also a massive c*nt

He might get clocked tonight, the lad he's fighting is no joke, only 1 UFC loss, and has good striking.

You’re not the only one, loads of people aren’t aware. He gets huge support from the reds, despite his racist tweets. The likes of Jamie Webster and other well known faces are behind him.

I'd hazard a guess most are aware but aren't bothered by it which speaks volumes about them.
