Yeah, I saw the clip for this on Twitter. You can watch it down below (credit to @Delisketo).



This is why you have to be careful around a fighter with a bladed stance; it's very easy to throw side and spinning kicks from that position.
 
Guess Islam vs Bobby ended how we all expected.
Unfortunately, would have liked him to have a moment. Statistically Green outlanded all of Islam's previous opponents.

Also, Armen Tsarukyan murdered Joel Alvarez. Manlets rise up, the time of 5'7 men taking out 6'3 weight bullies is now.
 
He will get convicted. I don't see how he could claim self defense
Your honour, this was in self defence, I wouldn't have been able to defend myself and I was in fear of my life from the people who molested my baby daughter.
Erh....Mr Velasquez, you are a former UFC champion, how could you be in fear for your life?
MY KNEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!

Yeah, he's probably boned, though he might get some sympathy from a jury for taking out some paedos.
Also, MMA related. Fiziev caught covid and is out of his co-main with RDA. Moicano stepping in on less than a weeks notice, still for 5 rounds.
 
So Cain is gonna be another martyr for how California protects criminals and punishes people who want justice. Honestly not a bad reason to go to prison, but he's for sure going to prison.

I wonder if he could plead temporary insanity due to what the guy did to his daughter.
It's a double edged sword, but saying he shot the guy because he was some sort of psychosis for what happened to his kid leaves no room for doubt the attempt at murder was pre-meditate.

That's how you end a Southpaw right there
 
So apparently Islam and his team might have fucked around and found out with RDA according to Dana White. Fiziev drops out of his fight with RDA and RDA needs an opponent on a weeks notice. He gets a lot of callouts, including from Islam, and RDA goes "beautiful, we were meant to fight before 3 times, lets do it at catchweight". Islam and his team say no, do it at Welterweight. RDA says yes, it's pretty much a done deal, goes to bed, wakes up, and is about to stop cutting weight when it comes back and Islam turned down the fight.

As it turns out, Dana didn't like him doing that, so he's now on hold and they are going to rebook the Dariush fight for him while finding someone else for the winner of Oliveira-Gaethje. Dude pulled a Marlon Vera of pretending he was going to step in at a higher weight class for clout and paid fo it.

Normally I think Dana is a dick but he is 100% justified in being pissed at Islam for that

Also lol at your avatar

Also considering that several people were willing to jump in on short notice for him, knowing full well they were probably (and were) going to get destroyed (Dan Hooker and Bobby Green), then he (or his manager Ali) comes out, plays around as if they are one of these "anywhere, anytime" guys, and isn't. Yeah, that would be very annoying for all.
 
Conor is getting closer to his title shot that then sets the quadrilogy with Poirier.
Conor is really a no brainer for a title shot. If he's washed up like people think, it's an easy win and payday for the champ, Conor gets his bone before he walks off into the sunset and Dana wheelbarrows a pile of cash to the bank. And if Conor wins it's an upset win, everyone ponders "is vintage Conor back?" and he still has probably 1 (cause I'm not expecting him to successfully defend) fight left and close that book on that sports entertainment era of MMA.

Dana should be stepping up more. Stopping the Cejudo comeback in it's tracks was a good start. Play the "legend of the sport" card all you want but take what GSP did to the middleweight division; it was inexcusably cowardly and selfish, that he thinks he can beat the paper champ as if Romero, Mousasi, Jacare, Uriah hall, Whitaker, Gastelum, Brunson and possibly even Weidman, Silva and Rockhold were in line that could've decapitated both GSP and Bisping on the same night (which Gastelum would do in a first round knockout of Bisping pretty much proving everyone correct). The UFC lost a lot of credibility, and it's only been getting worse because of the interim garbage belts.
 
Conor is legit shot and him beating a top five 155er at this point in his career would be an upset. He should just do the fourth fight with Dustin or third fight with Nate and pack it up.

Eager to see how Chimaev does against Burns next month. If he's as dominant as he's been against his other opponents he should fight the winner of Usman vs. Edwards.
