Don't need to see Nick back, he gets washed by any contender at 170. Guess the Lawler rematch might be worth it? Could be a co-main of some random fight night.

 

Yeah I’m a little bit past feeling excited seeing either of the Diaz brothers fight. I get it’s sort of all they’ve got aside from Nate’s CBD business, but I don’t see either being anything more than a buffer for up and coming guys in the rankings now. The way that the BMF fight culminated was cool, but both are past their prime and are painfully difficult in the spotlight.

 

They should just fight each other. Diaz vs Diaz would be money lol

 

Weird rumor going around that Volk is defending his title against Zabit at 254.

Zabit was scheduled to fight Yair on that card. And that card is already legitimately fucking insane.

 

WEC never die.

 

Zabit is gonna run that division

 

I find that rumor extremely hard to believe. It's been nearly a year since his last fight where he turned down a 5 rounder and still struggled with cardio by the end... But I guess I could also see Ali pulling some shit with Dana if Yair pulled out again.

 

Dustin vs Tony isn’t happening.


Dustin wanted more than 175k/175k and looks like he couldn’t get it.

 

Imagine not paying one of your top ranked guys better. After bragging about paying two of your employees 1.5 million for the great job they’ve been doing with matchmaking during the pandemic. (When guys are begging for fights to support their families)

This also comes a week after DC said Dana sent him A MILLION DOLLARS EXTRA after the Jones fight.

Pay Dustin you fucking goof.

 

Especially considering Dustin has arguably had the toughest schedule out of anyone in the organization lately. Nevermind that he delivers time and time again. The guy has gotten a performance bonus in the last 7 of 8 fights (only missing the one where he got smothered by Khabib).

 

Rough go of things for Matt Schnell. I’ve been a fan of his since he joined the UFC. He was finished early in his last bout after a string of solid wins, and unfortunately his fight with Nam tomorrow is scratched because he collapsed at weigh-ins. Hope he recovers quickly.

 

I don’t want to hear about this fucking clown anymore.

 

tonight’s card is something else

 

Conor continues to be a garbage human being

 

Yes! Croom was the guy I posted about a few weeks ago who is from my home town. He just won his UFC debut in 31 seconds. Amazing.

 

My brother tossed some money on him! Roberts was a -600

Sweet win.

 

I wanted to, but ran out of time! I know Roberts is tough and it was short notice, but Croom has 3x the experience so I knew it was a smart bet.

 

That ref and Ed Herman can gtfo. Horrible sequence.

 

Hoping Hill gets the W here

 

Let’s fucking go!!

 

Gaethje :(

 

?

 

Hope Khabib mauls him now.
