Hopefully, Alex has returned to the jungles to replenish his Chama energy, because he cannot fight the same way he did the first time around.

Poor Cory. He is about to get wrecked.

i mean i guess im not upset about this
Just Bleed-bros...we finna be eatin' good.

I really wonder what Xtreme Couture fighters do all day because Niksick coaches like he's just met them for the 1st time. Do they not gameplay at all?
I think the XC fighters spar so much that they don't have that 'second gear'/'third gear' you need to fight your way out of trouble, which is another downside of too much "free" sparring against the same people.
 
The sandnigger fighting some gook on the undercard yesterday got dropped SIX times in a single round. That has to be a record, right?

Terrible reffing. 5 knockdowns in round one and the fight was only stopped between rounds when the left hand side of the one guys face swelled up to twice the size of the other side because he had a badly shattered orbital bone.

The Chinaman did the walk off celebration thing 2 or 3 times but the ref just would not call the match for some reason even though the other guy was utterly fucked up.
 
The only thing Sharabutdin Magomedov is pirating are shipments of tomato cans. He is not getting to the Middleweight title on his current skillset.

Bryce Mitchell looked okay at Bantamweight, but my personal bias is get stronger at a more comfortable weight than dehydrating yourself to near death for a few inches/pounds of advantage at the expense of your own strength/cardio/durability.

Krylov is flushed. Hang'em up, buddy.

Petr Yan still looks good, but not good enough to beat Merab where they are as fighters.

That split decision to de Ridder was rough. He was coasting/stalling in that last round and playing a lot of patty cake. Between this fight and Bo Nigger (who just gave up), I realize that RDR will spam knees on guys shorter than him. I would be curious to see how his strategy plays out against a MW of comparable size to him (Izzy or Imavov).

They look weak but his shots in the clinch are supposedly brutal. I know some guys who sparred with him and they said that his knees and volume strikes sap your energy immediately. I've never seen Whittaker gas that quickly. RDR is also fortunate he has a strong chin as he nearly got knocked out.

Yeah, that clean shot in Round 3 by Bobby to RDR would have put most other people out cold. I'm curious to see what de Ridder does with someone who won't let him smother them on the cage, or someone with some decent footwork/range management.

I think de Ridder can hang with the top five of Middleweight, but I don't know if he can take the belt with Dricus, Khamzat, Imavov, and even Izzy holding the field.
 
A lot of movement today:
Reinier de Ridder is now in the Top 5 of UFC Middleweights:

It looks like the trajectory of the division is Dricus v. Khamzat. Whoever is champion faces the winner of Imavov v. Borralho. If RDR can nail down Izzy or Sean and beat either one, he gets a title shot middle/late 2026.

Ulberg(3) v. Reyes(8 ) is the main event of UFC Perth:

Arman is so desperate for (another) title shot he is offering to pay for it:
 
Back after a while so I'll make a little catchup post.

Really happy for RDR. As much as I like Whittaker, it just feels so good to finally have new blood at the top of the division. Izzy/Whittaker era is over, the division moved past them. The only veteran that I think still can hang with these other guys is Strickland.

I love Alex, but if I'm being completely honest with myself, I think Magomed will probably win this. Jiri vs Rountree sick, but neither will ever touch gold again.

Conor should be chemically castrated or be forced to use a chastity cage atp.
 
I don't know how the UFC expect to do anything with Shara on account for the fact that he can't get licensed in America due being blind in his eye.
 
Bitch got a wildlife encyclopedia tattooed on her.

Esteban Ribovics sounds like a meme supplement Joe Rogan would talk about.

Nigga's great-great grandparents were just slavic immigrants to Argentina. Ribovic/Ribović is a classic slavname, his ancestors were likely Slovaks/Ruthenians considering it got hungaricized into Ribovics, it's less likely this would have happened as a south slav (but not impossible, they could be from Vojvodina).
 
Fiziev vs. Oliveira on Oct. 11 Fight Night:
1754615670918.webp

I want to see Fizzy climb the ranks, even if he has to do it on Oliveira's corpse. Dustin is gone. Islam is gone(maybe?). Justin and Arman think they are owed title shots. It's time for the old guard to hit the exit.
 
I like Fiziev, he's active and entertaining, but he will need to improve a lot if he wants to have a fighting chance. Gamrot was catching him a lot, so was Bahamondes and the two losses to Gaethje leave no room for doubt about where his ceiling lies. Even an improved Fiziev should lose to Charles 9 times out of 10. He starts off fast but always gasses without fail. This is one of Charles' easiest matchups in a long time, so if Charles loses this I think it's safe to say he's past his prime. And even if Fiziev beats Charles, I don't see him ever becoming champion
 
The buy line for Osbourne 2nd submission was incredible and I bought in. I want Erceg to win but if he does get submitted now, holy shit
 
Hernandez continues to be an entertaining fighter. Would like to see something like a RDR matchup for him next.
