With the fight one month away, and usman rumored to fight Jack della in australia. The UFC has used colby to headline a nontitle fight PPV card in Masvidal vs colby before, so he's a Tested PPV product. If Usman decide to stick with his intial plans and match up with JDM?

TBH.... if they'll go with Usman who is 0-3 in last 3, they'll go with 1-2 short notice Colby.... Colby does have a win in his last 3 fights, He has not lost consecutive fights in his career yet.


The word on the street is, Colby back when said he was going to fight in december. Many rumors went around about Colby vs Garry because we know Garry said he got that contract from the UFC for december and supposedly, Colby told some fans he'll be fighting in december (there's a deleted tweet about it) which Aligns.

So before this pull out happened, Colby was already supposedely rumored to fight Ian Garry. Belal is out, Garry was booked against buckley.


Well what are the oods guys? Would the UFC do this?
 
It's not like Usman is officially booked so this "rumor" is not exactly stopping him from taking this fight.

You also forgot to mention that Colby's last fight was absolutely horrible and Dana himself openly critcized him so I highly doubt they would put him in another main event. I bet they'd rather scrap Shavkat's fight and book a totally new main event than put Colby in.
 
Colby needs to fight and beat a bunch of unranked cans like Rountree for Sherdog to glaze over this matchup.

I for one would love seeing Colby get brutally finished again.
 
I mean I wouldn't mind seeing Colby get obliterated but we need to keep this fucking guy far the hell away from any kind of title anything.
I also think there is think angle and of course there is an election tomorrow if trump loses, people would also love to see him get murdered as well. I could see the ufc doing this, it'd be easy to market a fight for him within the next month.
 
I dont see Colby ever taking that fight.
for a title? of course he would why wouldn't he?

We ALL look at his last fight as his absolute LAST chance to EVER be a champion. He will NEVER EVER have another chance if he declinded this one.

short notice, no notice... he'd have to take it.

An interim belt.

Colby seen what happened when Magny tried to shoot on Shavkat.

He knows DEATH is certain.
 
Colby is not risking a fight against anyone with KO power. He rather scrap his way to a pathetic lopsided decision.

Not interested in seeing Colby in another title fight or even title eliminator fight until he actually does something. His last few fights he hasn't been able to pull the trigger until the 2nd half of the fight, which is never a good sign for an aging fighter.

Well if you wanna see the final nail in colbys career and use it to build shavkat into a star.... now their chance.
 
Why give someone who wasn't up for a title shot an interim belt? This stuff is getting dumb already.

Hey I bought this belt at Men's Warehouse, who wants to fight for it.
 
Doubtful. I think Colby effectively threw away any good will he had with the UFC in his last fight against Leon. With all the distasteful trash talk, followed by an awful performance, I think the UFC realizes he's shot and the juice is no longer worth the squeeze. Even Trump walked out on his post-fight speech.

Fun fact, Colby has only finished 1 fight in the last 8 years, and that was via injury.
