Jiri is easily the best matchup of the elite at 205. Jiri doesn't cut weight and walks around at 210-215. Dricus, who got pancaked for 25 minutes, walks around at 235. Jiri could legit fight at 185 if he cut weight. Ulberg, Perieria, and Ank are enormous in comparison, and it's why Khamzat is begging for that fight in particular instead of literally anyone else at 205.
It's absurd that this is being entertained when Khamzat hasn't even defended the belt at 185. All this nigga did was get the belt, do nothing for a year, and leave. What a waste of everyone's time if the UFC are dumb enough to allow this farce.

Don't get me wrong, I don't necessarily think he beats the others. Ulberg yeah, he has the size and is a better striker, but good luck keeping the fight on the feet against Khamzat. I reckon Ankalaev wins, they probably would get into a wrestling match and Ankalaev would muscle him around, but Khamzat's Jiujitsu is also way better, so he could get him a in a bad position like Paul Craig. Pereira defended Ankalaev's takedowns beautifully so I reckon he could wait for Khamzat to slow down and catch him.
Jiri, though? He's a cardio monster. Sure, DDP walks around at a larger size, but the added weight on fight day will be a big factor that could slow him down and I don't think he'll be able to put up the same pace he does at MW. Khamzat's best bet would be an early submission unless his cardio holds up, because if not Jiri will brutalize him.

Anyone who thinks Jiri is an easy fight at 205 deserves to get KO'd (the fate of everyone who has fought Jiri in UFC except for Glover [because Jiri took his neck instead] and Alex).

The 235 thing sounds like BS. The most credible information I've seen concerning Khamzat's walk-around weight is around 93-94 kg (he started his 279 camp at that weight).

Given that there are no real wrestlers at 205 right now, he should want anyone other than Jiri, since Jiri could put him to sleep. Hell, he should want Ankalaev more than Jiri, given that Ank's 'wrestling' couldn't get healthy Pereira on the mat.
 
The Strickland stuff on social media is hilarious because they'll be celebrating Khamzat beating him. I do think it's interesting they only cut off his mic when he started talking about pedophiles.
Paramount about to ruin ts

Jiri is basically the Big Tony Ferguson aka a neurotic street brawler who relies much more on his nature tard strength and stamina than actual skills. He almost got destroyed by a geezer, imagine what Borz would've done to him.

AFAIK The story about Aspinall relinquishing the belt and requesting his release is not true.

And even if it was, Gane is one of the UFC fighters of all time. It's worse than Portier or the studs who never got gold when it comes to Ciryl; he's going to be the greatest who refuses to it.

It's like destiny with so many chances they give him — and HWs have no promotion as is — yet, he always fumbles it. Judges cucked Volkov, he gets the interim, and makes Francis work to no avail. Despite his shitty grappling, I give him a pass on the Jones fight he had more to gain with his C-list movie roles than an early championship (still absurd that he basically let himself get into that choke, but we've moved on...).

Aspinall? The eye poke is worse if you buy into the narrative that "Gane was piecing up Tom." Like, okay, you're winning? Fucking win then! The Jones brigade online that hates Tom because of the whole unnecessary clusterfuck before he got promoted to undisputed champ has to admit that with that narrative in mind, Gane screwed himself out of the belt. Lol lmao if Poatan or anyone else beats him for the Interim belt.
 
I was excited to watch all the mexicans lose like the last three times they tried this but they've all won so far and now I wish I had stayed home and played watermelon d&d instead.

E: I hope King Green goes to Africa and gets his hands and feet ripped off by an angry chimp so I never have to see him fight again.

Georgio was out of line and acting like a bit of a bitch. There's a big difference between posting hard and slap boxing.

Here’s a good video on the situation.
It always tickles me when influencers get too big for their britches in the combat sports world, it’s one of the very few places where you can’t be a bullshit artist for very long without it coming back to bite you.

It's obvious that this guy is skilled, but when the rubber meets the road that involves an actual fighter and not a random on Muscle Beach then the results speak for themselves.

The hilarious thing to me is that under wrestling rules, even if you say the ref was biased (lol bro you lost), it was a hard match where he had to play dirty to stand a chance. There’s levels to this, and both Georgio and everyone else now knows that in a submission grappling or MMA match he would get quite literally brutally molested by Arman and he couldn’t do shit about it.
It’s always fun when I guy I didn’t like based solely on him being an LA influencer acts like an asshole and gets everyone else to not like him, it’s like half the reason I’m on this forum.

WE will be crushing "French" fingers in the next fight! And just in time too, thank God.

I don't think Aspinall is fighting Gane next. It's either him and Pereira for the undisputed or Pereira vs Ciryl for the interim if he needs to recover

Bet everything on Alex. At this point, Gane refuses to win gold or is outright cursed to never win an undisputed title.
 
I still think they're bringing back Jon Jones for the white house, probably stripping Tom in the process. Pereira is all but confirmed to be fighting for the HW title next and they need as many Americans as they can get on the WH card. Ciryl as the backup for if/when JJ pulls out or has an incident in the leadup.
