    Bobby Green went all HHH with the water spit while he was getting his hand raised. Keith Peterson looked absolutely disgusted and just walked away before he even finished raising it. I chuckled pretty hard.

    These cards that were supposed to be good are slowly starting to falling apart.

    Costa had Elbow surgery like a week ago and fights Chimaev in 10 days? Derrick Lewis is replaying Blaydes against Almeida. Etc.

    Damn.

    Volk/Islam 2 deserves better than an 11 day build too, but Volk will be game and was probably training for this scenario anyways.

    Oliveira got cut while sparring and needed stitches. Do fighters not spar with headgear on anymore? Seems like a very avoidable mistake.

    As long as Chimaev doesn’t get another layup. He’s been off for too long and the Holland fight was a joke. If he doesn’t face someone good now, we may not see him again until 2024/2025. I’d be down for Whitaker, Usman, or DDP to step in if they can pull it off

    I like this new card better than the old one. Wish I had more time to get hyped about it, though.

    God I hope Kamaru beats the fuck out of Chimaev. Kind of hard to see it going down that way, though.

    Dana kicking USADA to the curb because they were going to enforce the hard 6 month rule on Conor lol.

    Gotta get a Conor fight on those TKO Q1 earnings report.

    I know there were definitely some absurd USADA testing stories out there, but don’t think there’s any other independent company that can test on that scale needed for UFC.

    I think it’s a close fight. It does feel like Chimaev is more natural for 185 than Usman though. He’s fought there more recently. Usman should have an advantage on the feet with Whitman in his corner I would think.

    The main problem with Usman is that his knees are really fucked up. He should retire

    I was really high on McKinney at one point. Its shocking to still see him on the prelims. That war with Dober took a lot of momentum away

    Last time khamzat was going to roll through an undersized but legitimate top 10 fighter he lost a round and was gassed AF in the 3rd. I am looking at an over or goes distance at this point. I don’t think Kamaru will gas but who knows what type of shape he is in is my biggest reservation.


    Point being, Khamzat has crushed bad fighters, hardly fought since he stormed the scene and become best buds with Darren Till, and did not look good vs the only guy, Gilbert, who has ever been in title contention.

    I get it completely and I had no interest in even betting on this fight tbh. Kamaru is declining though, not that he wasn’t or isn’t great but a lot of fighters are hesitant with Kamaru or fear his wrestling and I don’t believe Khamzat will have any fear or worry with Kamaru. I think it will be fast paced and that doesn’t work well for Kamaru…and as much as he wants to play it off, his knees are absolutely fucked and he 100% said something popped. You can tell by the look in Justin he was even worried

    I don’t know about touching that Co Main either, but I think Volk can get Islam this time. Volk has probably been training for this, and Islam has to make the adjustment on short notice and the first fight was razor close

    I believe theres some truth to this, but he also moved back up for a reason. If Dana gets super pissed when someone asks him at the press conference, we will know

    Excited about the card tomorrow. The lines on Islam and Khamzat are heavy. I think at least one loses. I think Islam having more time to rehydrate will make this a tougher fight for Volk, but I think he's been preparing for this while Islam had to prepare for Charles.
