blame colby and dana. we should of gotten over the belal vs. leon fight eons ago so that shavkat could get in the title scene. mvp vs. wonderboy was also another fight to be made.

The UFC is busy hustling to make sure each card has 3 or 4 solid WMMA fights.

Leon should have fought Belal in December 2023 but Colby had Dana White privilege. Seems like Leon is fighting Belal on the Manchester card now. Colby appears to be ducking Ian Garry. Shavkat has been injured but looks like he may face Jack Della for the number one contender spot.

Well, Colby Covington is shamelessly ducking Ian Garry, for one.

Hopefully if they make 165 they also make a 175 and ditch 170

This division has been the slowest moving division for like 8 years.
Even when Woodley was champ around 2016 and 2017 there was a lot of ducking, cherry picking, and fighters taking long breaks. Then came the rematches of the Usman era. This division drags ass

theyre waiting to see if makachev beats poirier without taking damage, aren't they?
They would love to book mak vs leon lmfao.
It's shenanigans. Half a year since Leon fought, he didn't take damage, no fight announced STILL.

Buckley is ranked and he's booked.
Leon is almost certainly fighting Belal in July. He wanted to fight in April but all 3 opponents didn't want it.
Shavkat vs JDM is likely for Perth.
Colby is ducking Ian Garry and trying to get another undeserved title fight.
Usman hasn't even decided if he'll ever fight at 170 again.
Burns wants to fight Usman but we'll see what happens there, see above.
MVP is also very likely to fight on the Manchester card in July, against maybe Geoff Neal. So that would be another ranked fight.
No idea what is in store for the likes of Brady, Luque, Magny, Wonderboy etc though.
