When I fought at the beginning of the UFC (only 3 fights with a record of one win and 2 losses), the commercial interest was not so much and more sincerity was allowed in the matches and the champions. It is difficult to understand that the sale of houses depends on the name of the champion.
I have always been a fan of Al Iaquinta .I wish him luck on his bout with Khabib it's not going to be an easy fight though.Hopes he pulls off an offset.
Seems like Conor is gone mad after that defeat
That was a crazy week for the UFC i would still like to see Holloway vs Nurmagomedov though...
This will surely be a great contest .. And you just presented this in a very different style.thanks always @nanzo-scoop
to be honest boxing is not my strong suit, but reading the whole summary wow it has been a crazy week! things change from one moment to the next :)
I'm upvote you. Can u follow me
I think he's really having issues since the fight he had with Mayweather
I didn't care much for the original fight with Ferguson, but when he dropped out and the Blessed stepped up it got my attention. I was really looking forward to it and rooting for Holloway.
I'm tired of Conor, Khabib, and Ferguson. A surprise victory by Holloway would turned things upside down and changed the conversation.
The current fight makes no sense to me. If Khabib wins, he's the champ. If Al wins... he's back to selling houses for he was 0.2 pounds over the limit at the weigh-ins and can't be the champion.
Still, I'd like to see him knocking out Nurmagomedov, just to see how Dana would spin it :-)
That's the first time I've seen someone say that! Ferguson Vs Khabib is in my opinion one of the greatest fights they could possibly set up.
I agree this fight with Khabib and Al doesn't do anything for me however if somehow he does win Dana has said he will be champion. The New York comission won't officially declare it for the title but the UFC can declare him as their lightweight champion if they like.
That fight was interesting 1st, 2nd, and 3rd time. The 4th time I just couldn't care less.
The only fight the UFC is really interested in is the Khabib vs Conor and all the guys they are throwing under Nurmagomedov are no match for him. The fight with Ferguson would have been Khabib v Barboza 2.0... nothing we haven't already seen.
I disagree and hope that not too long in the future it gets rebooked and we get to see the fight. I didn't exactly think Tony was set to win but do believe he'd be much more competitive than Barboza. Khabib has weaknesses but Barboza couldn't deal with his constant pressure well enough to exploit them. And Barboza also looked lost when he was taken down, Tony would be more comfortable there when that inevitably happened and would be able to attack Khabib from there more than anybody else has done.
Even if you are right though and it did go like Barboza 2.0 I still think Khabib needs it in order to be considered one of the best. If not then even if he retires undefeated he'll have the Tony Ferguson question hanging over him.
The videos were really enjoyable , very bright although i had a problem of language barrier with the video ,notwithstanding , indeed ,i enjoyed watching it.thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing
SO crazy what one incident can do to a card... it's ok, we still have Rose Namajunas and Joanna Jedrzejczyk :)
OH WOW! This post is so packed full of content!!! I began watching UFC with @quinneaker about a decade ago. I never really cared about fighting until I got to tune into his perspective. I am astounded at the power that is behind these fights and all of the personal dedication, physical strength, stamina and mental agility it takes to be on top of such a potent game.
I haven't watched tv or things shown on tv in many years, so I am really out of the loop now, but my appreciation still burns strong.
I thought of you this morning as I made a post about the Steem Creators conference and included tons of photos from Steemfest. Of course you're in there. Just felt called to stop by and share a little love your way. Blessing to you @nanzo-scoop.

Interesting write-up, thanks for sharing! Iaquinta wasn't eligible to become champion if had of won the fight though..
I did a 👊 UFC PICK YOUR WINNERS CONTEST 👊 on my page for ufc 223. Would be great to have you guys join in next time :)
Khabib versus Al proved to be an important fight. Al revealed some weak areas of Kabib's skills. Primarily when he backs up with his chin high...that could prove to be a game changer with a powerful striker like Ferguson. However, Khabib seems to do well with aggressive strikers that presss and there is no question that he's a mauler on the ground.

Good luck in the fight to these two Al laquinta and Khanib this fight will not be easy and will be very good. regards
And Als stock went up,up,up ;)
Great performance!
Great breakdown, one thing I'm gonna add - Russian fans (including myself) never liked Artem Lobov, we have several nicknames for him "the tree" "the wooden", due to his clumsy technique. McGreggor is just building a badboy name for himself, it will pay off in the end. Great meeting you at the Crypto show ! =) Let's keep in touch
