Paul bros trolling fight fans and now becoming the biggest proponent for fighter pay has actually been a lot of fun to watch.

 

Dana calls him a cuck or just ignores it outright.

also Jorge kills him. He never accepts that.

 

Paul needs to find someone legit to fight because fighting washed up wrestlers isn’t cutting it. The Woodley fight only did 65k and I could see it being worse if he doesn’t fight a Diaz/Masvidal type soon. The value of these gimmick fight cards diminishes greatly if nobody gives a crap about his opponent.

 

Yeah his value is quickly going to drop. It’s cool he’s getting his opponents paid and advocating for fighter pay but he’s not Floyd. Floyd could do a million buys fighting a wet noodle.

He has to fight an actual boxer next or someone like Anderson.

 

Also, Dana is a businessman. If Jake was serious about coming in and fighting a Masvidal type name, he’d probably let him.

He let Punk come in (and lets be real, Paul is way more fit to fight in a cage).
He let Couture kill Toney.

 

is Dana really about to let Chandler destroy what's left of Tony Ferguson?

 

I’d love to see that. Unfortunately the only way we see it is if Francis loses

 

If Francis wins this next one, and the obligatory one after that, he's done with the UFC; he will make sooo much more money doing boxing than he could ever earn in the UFC. The Fury fight alone will be able to sustain him for the rest of his life.

 

Also, get fucked UFC

ESPN to Raise UFC Pay-Per-View Prices to $74.99 Starting at UFC 270

 

No more boxing crossovers. Please.

 

On a serious note though lol it’s rematch season in the UFC this first quarter.

Rob/Izzy 2, Max/Volk 3, Figgy/Moreno 3, Yan/Aljo 2. Probably more with Nunes/Pena and Edwards/Usman at some point. Maybe even at heavyweight since there aren’t many guys in like that aren’t rematches.

 

Yeah this is getting ridiculous. I have been ordering PPV’s consistently but this might change that. As of right now 271 card is pretty weak outside of the main event and I could see myself streaming instead of forking up $75 for cards that aren’t stacked.

 

Khamzat/Burns on April 9th

 

Scratch that.

 

damn

 

Wtf

 

oh shit

 

Woah. Big time jump for Bam Bam.

 

Talk about a banger! That's going to be a blast to watch.

 

My pick would be Giga depending on his performance against Kattar.

Josh Emmett throwing his hat into the ring as well. No way thats not another fun fight.

 

Masvidal and Covington is allegedly set to be announced soon but I just have the feeling that it won't happen...probably until both are well past their primes but here's hopin'

 

Colby beats him 9/10 times

 

agreed
