Combat sports is marketed to the "casuals". It is the casuals who pay for PPV and where the big money for boxing come in from. Personally, I consider myself an advanced casual MMA fan having followed the game from the mid 2000s (Couture and Liddell era). I think MMA sort of peaked (for the moment) 5 years ago, and we are still looking for the next big star but that is hard because many fighters are evenly skilled especially at the top level.

I don't see Dustin getting the W but it definitely wouldn't hurt my feelings. Either way, I will be happy with the outcome of this fight (assuming both men finish in relatively good health, obviously). I dont understand how anyone could not be a fan of Dustin. He and Islam both just just good dudes and about as good of role models as the sport has to offer. We could use a lot more like them.

@MrBhramabull Ай бұрын

Islam has all the aspects in winning this fight. He's younger and in his prime, he's more well-rounded and a protege of the greatest lightweight of all time in Khabib. But make no mistake, Dustin still has the power in that left hand and has the puncher's chance. All he has to do is just to figure out how to land that left hook to Islam because if he does connect cleanly, it's game over for Islam.

Dustin can’t stand with Islam like he does with others! He will not be able to be constantly aggressive because of the fear of the takedowns! Look at all the great Strikers we have and how passive they are against Khabib and Islam! Volk,Justin,Bobby, Conor! It is not the same!

Islam was able to take advantage of his southpaw stance against Volk's orthodox, which absolutely led to the head kick finish in their second fight. I'm curious if he'll revert back to a more grappling focused style against Poirier, especially given the southpaw vs southpaw stances that will be on display.

Volkanovski switches stances like a mad man too though? Also. You are right. Islam would probably fight Poirier like how he fought Dober (southpaw). That single leg is there to be snatched.
