Media Gilbert Burns wants rematches & Dustin Poirier going forward, not fresh matchups

Revenge is a powerful motivation.

Well yeah, he's 37. That's pretty old for a 170er.

I'd only be interested in fights with big paychecks too.

Burns: "I would love to rematch all of those guys that beat me or fight a LW that won't move up"

UFC: "Shavkat or Garry? Which one do you want?"

 

[JoeRowe]

He should call out Sean Brady, easy money

 

[VinceArch]

I'd watch him and Usman fight each other again. Along with the obvious choice of him and Khamzat.

 

[MigitAs]

He’s old now

The fights themselves would be fun to see but I don't see them ever getting made. Burns should be fighting down the rankings after the loss to Belal Muhammad. I imagine the UFC will probably want whoever fights Usman next to be able to earn a title shot off his name with a win, that's why they're very unlikely to have either Burns or Stephen Thompson match with him imo.

I actually forgot he lost to Belal, you're right. Yes he'll need to face someone down before he gets the fights he wants.

Weird to think Gilbert hasn’t beaten anyone under the age of 35 in 4 and a half years since Gunnar nelson

Ww top is pretty old men heavy.

The average age of the top 10 is 33.5. Shavkat the only guy under 30.

Damn

 

[CieloLuce]

I don't blame him. He wants to cash out because he won't be sniffing a title shot anytime soon.

I wish he was one fight away from a ts.
