Belal will suffer the same fate as Dariush

[slavomir]

Dariush is still in the top 5, let's not act like he has to fight his way back up the ladder

Often undeserving or not so skilled fighters enter top 10 in UFC rankings.
Of course it is Dana's and UFC matchmaking fault.

Burns is elite and Belal is one of the most proven welterweights in the world right now.

Colby is hilariously over ranked and is a good matchup for Belal. Colby generally fought guys coming off multiple losses and hasn't fought ANY of his peers, his claim to fame is losing to Usman, twice.

yeah and as I mentioned Burns would have destroyed him but he was a one armed fighter for 4 1/2 rounds and Belal still couldn't finish him.

 

[OldFashion]

I says.. Pardon?

Maia, Wonderboy, Luque, Brady, and Burns. These guys are subpar competition?

Maia and Wonderboy are like 40 years old and long out of their prime. Luque is a perennial gatekeeper, Brady's best win is Chiesa and Burns had one arm yet Belal still didn't finish him

These were all top 5 fighters. Sorry, but I can’t agree with calling them subpar competition.

Thanks for replying. I don’t agree with your opinion. But I respect it.

Luque was a top 5 fighter and he was elevated off beating Woodley just like Colby was.

 

[BigDramaShow26]

The Belal disrespect is expected at this point.

Idk how you can watch Colby and think he would easily best Belal. Seems crazy to me.

Ok Colby the guy who uses his cardio and pressure wrestling to win fights is going to do that against Belal? I don't see it. Especially now after he's on yet another long layoff.

Dariush is good but he has always had defense and chin problems. He has been rocked or slept several times.

 

[Deleted member 359865]

I think Belal is a bit more polished but do I think he’s on the level of Leon Edward? No…

It’s weird cuz I don’t see any way Belal could beat Leon, but I could see Nate getting lucky against Leon but Belal destroying Nate…that said Belal should keep improving his boxing and maybe he could be an elite player.

 

[HuskySamoan]

Pretty sure blahal is getting a ts

Decent chance, I wouldn't bet on it though. If Khamzat makes 170 or if Shavkat has a spectacular performance vs the right guy, he could easily get skipped. He will be sitting out probably a good 8 months or more to fight Leon, always a recipe for disaster. Recency bias is real.

 

[Gang Sign Luke]

Would Belal beat Prime Jon Fitch or Jake Shields?

 

[blaseblase]

Both have/had long winning streaks but against subpar competition. Never beating the elite guys. Hell, Belal couldn't even finish a one armed Gilbert Burns and he had 4 rounds to do so. Kind of embarrassing if you ask me. His striking looks slow and predictable and his wrestling won't help him against the top guys. Kamaru, Leon, Shavkat, Chimaev and Colby will all make him look horrible. Gilbert would have done the job but he was a cripple from round 1 onward.

Tell us again who Colby has beaten

 

[Mammothman]

I fucking hope so, I don’t want Belal fighting for the belt, let alone winning it.

It would be horrible.

If he had beaten them 7 years ago I would agree but he fought both of them at the tail end of their careers

"I got no arguments so instead I'll just call this post stupid"

But if you don’t like the most boring fighter on the roster and cheer against him, you’re a pathetic casual bro

 

[Goatenstein]

"I got no arguments so instead I'll just call this post stupid"

No argument is necessary. You Belal haters are just babies who aren't going to listen.

 

[Harlekin]

Dariush was winning till he didn't. You short term memories shertards.
Belal will lose and keep losing in a title fight.

 

[corrupted]

It shouldn't happen. He has better wins than Benny did. The number of guys he's beaten doesn't change how good those guys are. Belal has 3 top 5 wins.

/ of

hopefully not, lets not make things better for Dana

 

[Streeter]

Noone will cheering harder for Colby than Belal.
