Belal having a belt would be funny, ppv out the window

😂😂😂 Belal having less chances than cejudo is as hard as life can get Poor thing 😂

Hopefully Leon beats Belal and we can forget about him. And if Chito does beat Sean, he just might have one successful defense and end the year with the strap. Like we say in 2023 tho, anything can happen.

For the love of God, do not sleep on Aljamain Sterling at Featherweight!

So you're favoring Islam to lose his belt this year?

Colby bootlickington 0 wins against current ranked welterweights. Ran from all of the top contenders.... shavkat, Gilbert, Belal the racist, khamzat (when he was there) and he couldn't even finish a washed up masvidal. Calls 911 like a woman does. And as boring as Belal, guess what? He has more finishes than colby bootlickington, AND amazingly has a few ranked wins lmfao 🤣 Colby is the most overrated fighter in the welterweight class and this is why

no conor doesnt

Alexa grasso chokes him out

Connor on the floor: this ain't over! Your husband's in me DM's hit me back baby!!

@@HugoHeinze-be8ef WHAT?!?!?! Conor (one 'N' not two) likely doesn't ever fight again because with the millions he has in the bank, his fire is largely gone in terms of chasing the dream as ruthlessly as he did before the Mayflower fight. If he does come back and it's against Michael Chandler, Chandler will clean the corners of the octagon with him. If Conor comes back into the ring against someone as strong as Chandler, it'll be even more destruction on the little Irish lily than he got from Khabib. I would imagine if Conor does actually come back, it'll be for a legacy fight against someone who is as washed up as he is: Nate Diaz is the first one that comes to mind, and I think Nate takes Conor out again (although it won't be as humiliatingly as it would be if he fought someone like Chandler or Gaethje.) Actually, I'd LOVE to see a Conor/Gaethje fight. Watching Justin do to the candy ass from Dublin what he did to Tony Ferguson would be almost as beautiful as it was to see Trump say he'd throw the hildabeast in jail in their debate. Conor is showing his remaining fighting skill (compared to active UFC fighters) is as pathetic is his complete lack of class and character is.

His best "wins" are TWO LOSSES AGAINST USMAN. Most overrated fighter in the welterweight division

@@440-fishermandrock8preach

Truth! Used to think of Yan as a P4P contender, now nobody talks about him.

It's almost like he was overrated

Dude was a world champion and lost some rather close fights, but sure, we'll say that he's overrated. Good take. @@steelo1364

This may sound crazy but maybe he wasn’t that guy from the jump? He’s definitely a contender and can more than likely become champion again but Yan’s resume is still pretty weak. During his run, he fought a bunch of guys on their way out but when it came to fighting the actual new contenders, he’s fallen short. Of course Aljo 1 & the Sean fight were up in the air but idk where he really stands when it comes to that top 5. His best wins are Aldo & Cory but was able to turn his situation around while Petr hasn’t really been able to. This year will really impact Yan’s career and how fans will view him.

@@steelo1364right kinda like he only whooped on retiring fighters like Faber. Cory is the only legit contender he beat

Glad you enjoy it!

I think Weasle had some bad teeth issues last year. You go through that and it changes you.

@@nickcarlson2708 oh no doubt. You don't realize how important them pearly whites are until you have a problem that stinks/hurts or someone you know that works at a dentist office. I'm 28 and can flex no cavities ever. S/o my aunt for caring about these chompers. It actually kinda scary what terrible dental hygiene can lead too.

DJ coming back would be so legendary and good for the UFC. I wish they never gave him up.

Mighty Mouse would kill Pantoja though.

​@@jcarneal1987I know he's the current champ in ONE, but I still wouldn't put too much trust on a 37 year old flyweight (38 by the time he would possibly come back), GOAT or not

It's not about negative or positive sentiments. We know Izzy's chances against Strickland are very low. We know his chances against Khamzat aren't too good. Ironically his best match up would be against the champion Du Plessis, because DDP's biggest weakness is a good counter puncher. But something tells me Dricus chin will hold up even if he gets caught cause Adesanya doesn't have all that much power.

​@@enmanuel1950 I don't know if his chances against Strickland are "very low" tbh. Every long reining champ has a terrible fight like that. Case and point, when Jon Jones "lost" to Reyes. Fast forward to last year, everyone underestimated how great he is, but Jon just proved why dominated his division for so long. Also remember: Just a few months before losing (on the feet) to Strickland, Adesnanya knocked out one of the scariest strikers ever.

@@ronror I was one of the people who said that Jones would steamroll Gane. Cause he'd have a factor that he hadn't had in a long time, motivation. MMA math doesn't work. Adesanya KOed Pereira, Pereira KOed Strickland therefore if this was math Adesanya should've KOed Strickland but styles make fights and Strickland's style just counters Adesanya's. That doesn't mean he can't make an adjustment and win but I don't think his chances of doing so are good given how dominant Strickland's performance against him was.

@@enmanuel1950 I'd like to apologize for poorly making my last point. My main point is/was "All long-reining Champs eventually have a bad fight". I was not making an MMA math argument. Here's what I was (poorly) alluding to there: Adensanya's entire career and life has been building towards beating Pereira. After tons of failures/humiliation ect. I can imagine, every cell in his being needed him to win that fight... And he finally did. Having actually won his life's greatest challenge... It's not surprising that he fatigued and fought terribly against a lesser striker (in Strickland). Again, my point wasn't "MMA math" BUT it was about all dominant champions eventually underperforming (from either comfort or fatigue).

IZzy gonna sweep ddp

Thank you brother

Thanks! Appreciate it

Nahh I think Max will outpace Justin

Hopefully they can add 165 nd 175, take away 170.

​@@TheWeasleMMA165🔥🔥🔥

New Cottonweight division has been announced

Does make me wonder what is going to happen to him once he gets older, because he's so reliant on his physical gifts and athleticism and typically fighters who are reliant on those more than their skills, don't tend to age well. But then again its 185, and Yoel Romero was a top dog and still insanely athletic into his 40s despite not being the most skilled fighter.

It’s better skill than duck lip gaycheese sloppy haymakers, plus Dricus actually knows how grapple since it’s mma & not kickboxing.

Ngannou? Womens mma? 😂

He is an athlete who got into MMA, like Volk and Aspinal, but to be fair he is less of a natural MMA than the other two.

Dricus and Pantoja baffle me. They both seem to fatigue and have shit stand up, but they have power.

More like the u.s. robs foreign athletes to build a national champ, yan beat o'malley, the current bantamweight champ, and got robbed The landscape would be very different without all the corruption in the u.s.

Yan is a great fighter but his resume speaks for itself. He is a product of right time right place. He can definitely find himself at the top again but I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t. Is it a coincidence that he beat a bunch of scrubs and ogs but crumbled against young contenders? Look at Cory compared to Petr. Had a little hump but was able to turn it around. I hope yan can prove me wrong but I genuinely think he’s not that guy and never was. If with the fluke losses against Aljo & Sean.

100% agree bro

Same

Everyone wants to see this matchup considering that Tatiana already has wins over some champions and would have been it of she hadn't been injured.

The WMMA we wanna see.

You want to watch wmma? You are crazy

It wouldn’t sell at all

No

It should be 0.

I agree i think izzy or khamzat is most likely at 80%

I like Izzy but his reign is over, bro. He still capable to win the belt again of course, but not long term.

@@pube66 they are both at 0. neither will earn a title shot by the end of the year.

@RandyMarsh99895 not sure about khamzat but dana will make the fight now as soon as izzy is ready. Dricius calling him out too already practically tells us hes next unfortunately.

In a few months for sure

115? do you mean 125. I'd agree but i don't think KKF is quite there yet (he certainly has the potential, its whether he realises it within the year)

@@zvezda4994_ yeah my bad bro I meant 125. I agree he also beat Albazi on my score card too was a bit unlucky. If Pantoja has the belt and Kape is out, I don’t see why KKF couldn’t slide into the title picture

Stamp would be a star in the UFC

I think Whittaker wins the rematch

That's how everyone feels about their chances against DDP, but then they fight him...

Bro how is Brendan Allen going to beat chimaev

@@haydenjennings4687 Bro has done more to earn the middleweight title then Khamzat. If he destroys Vettori he's right there. Then are situations that he could slide right in similar to how Sean did.

@@haydenjennings4687 At this point everyone in the top 15 can beat Khamzat if they survive round 1 vs him

Guy lost to Chris Curtis get out of here

Brendan Allen has gotten the easiest movements up the rankings ever, the only two skilled opponents he faced cooked him. He'll probably beat vettori then lose when he faces an actual good fighter

Yeah true

facts

Exactly so weird to have two champs in the same division both defending but not fighting it's becoming a joke

He's literally the best fighter in the world, saying he'll end the year with the the 155 belt is not crazy lol

@@TheWeasleMMAIgnore that dude out of all the picks that’s by far the most likely one. No one’s beating that fucker. I’ve been a Gaethje fan since he drug MJ through that war and sacrificed him, so I have all the reason to be biased.

They gonna fight eventually for sure 🤞🏾

It sucks to see things out of order but there is a benefit to putting on the huge fights. Whoever wins is leaving with huge hype behind them and that’s even better for whoever’s next. It can really fire up the division. I think the UFC learned their lesson with the whole Usman/Jorge/Colby situation. It was cool to see them fight each other but had they done it earlier then that division would have been even bigger than it was while Usman’ reign.

@@double0double0 I agree. I'm hyped to watch any of these top guys compete. Win or lose I'm always excited to watch O'Malley compete. I know people nit pick him not being interesting in press conferences but imo press conferences are lame 85% of the time anyways. What's more important to me is how they perform in the octagon. *what's better Colby and his trash talk but not able to fight in the cage? Or someone who just wants to get to fight night and put on an entertaining performance?

Lmfao

I fully agree. I find it so strange that he got shafted at Welterweight. Then a bunch of people in the MMA community have basically turned on him ever since he changed weight classes. It's just strange how fickle some of the "MMA fans" can be..

He’s unbeaten with some of the best on his resume, khamzat is really underrated. I’m expecting double champ @170/185

most people turned on him because he only talks recently and is very anoying with his "see u soon" to every new champion and then doing nothing, people are tired of him @@benmcreynolds8581

@@vlady3535The guy can't even make 170. How's he going to be the champ then?

he beat no middleweight dude... and he wont beat a top 5 one@@benmcreynolds8581

Love it! I have exactly the same except for edwards. I feel like he might just defend against Belal and that’ll be it for this year

Alexa stays champ* Tf is erin😂

Valentina lost twice

BSD is a legit Bum islam will sleep that bum

I think Shavkat is extremely overrated but he’s so craft he could pull off victories

look at his last 5 fights. L (Whittaker won the second bout), W (Cannonier), L (Pereira), W (Pereira), L (Strickland). he's a .500 fighter at best these days.

@@kylecampbell9547 But Whittaker didn't win the second bout, you must be stupid or something.

Cannonier has a better chance vs. all the other guys than izzy. He can actually beat strickland unlike izzy

@@eldgepollard5906but beats Alex who beats Strickland ? Also beats Jarad who also beats Strickland ? A fighter loses and y’all forget who they r

@@shaquilleghans4351 Fighting is about styles. Cannonier would never beat izzy but he has a much better style to beat strickland. Izzy is great but his style does not work against strickland

​@@eldgepollard5906mma fans are the dumbest.....u think Strickland is some sort of invincible guy whom izzy can't beat....izzy wasn't prepared for Strickland in the fight , he underestimated him....he will easily beat Strickland if rematch occurs

@@sidtalks2885Izzy himself never said he didnt say he underestimated strickland so I'm not going to just assume that. Interesing youre calling people dumb when youre only argument is made up scenarios that noone can prove. We can only go off of what we seen in their fights and that showed that strickland is a bad style, he isnt invincible but izzys style simply did not work against strickland unless he makes some major adjustments

Crooked nose Holloway aint beating Topuria 😂

Who TF is Tony?

Manon beats her

Yeah, I think Dricus would focus a lot more on takedowns against Izzy. He would get clipped too easily if he struck with Izzy for too long.

Why would he? His strength is his versatility. He fought Sean differently to Rob. He can compete anywhere

@@matsutendai The way he was throwing strikes seems like he typically throw strikes that way there were times where he was throwing wide strikes and wasn't even looking at Sean which is a bad decision against a counter punched like Izzy who has punished guys who threw strikes that over extend .

that's what I am saying if Izzy is half of what was he against Paulo Costa he is destroying ddp also the fact that contender Izzy has a record of running through people. ​@@tmerchead1

Ddp is a journeyman who got the belt. Does anyone actually think he can hold the belt fighting the way he does. It's soooo sloppy. i think cannonier or Izzy give him nightmares.

Usman got dominated in the wrestling. Khamzat couldn't keep it up cos he hasn't got the stamina

Khamzat dominated Usman in the first round, the only thing he exposed was his cardio. And didn't Usman legit have the best tdd in the UFC not too long ago?

@@thelonewanderer1227 you answered your own question

Yeah fr.

It’s hard to argue against though. Not really biased tbh, just most likely to happen

@@joe.wotsits8098 Some of them sure. But Ankalaev isn't beating Pereira.

Islam and Ankalaev ending the year with those belts is very reasonable. Crazy to call that bias.

@@tvojemanka bro it’s not crazy to think Ankalaev beats pereira. It’s an MMA fight not kickboxing. Also no one is even saying flat out he does beat pereira it’s exploring likelihood

Once you get dismantled the way he did against Sean, its hard to see you ever reigning over the division again. Name one former champion who got dismantled and became champ again, I can't name a single one. Usually fights like that result in subsequent declines for the loser. And no I don't for one second believe Izzy had an 'off-night'. That's just a cope cop-out, Sean gummed up Izzy's works enough to make him a one-note striker and Izzy couldn't adjust because he's fought the same way for years; too reliant on leg kicks, unreliable hook counters and backing up to the cage.

​@@madgavin7568 Francis got dismantled and won the belt

@@gbrown3783 He wasn't even a champion at the time lol. He had only 4 years of MMA experience at most, it was too much, too soon for him as he would later admit. I'm looking for someone who became UFC champion, lost it after getting dismantled and then won it again. I can't find a single example.

His odd gayish and forced cringe behavior fuckd his brand and respect

​@madgavin7568 well you could say amanda nunes got dominatedband won her belt back but thats women's mma. but gsp did get dominated by serra and won his belt but people said that was a fluke as well. the problem with strickland vs izzy is that izzy looked lost with the philly shell and checked leg kicks. izzy needs to become an offensive grappler to beat strickland.

He's getting ragdolled by ankalaev
