Media Brendan Allen Submits Andrè Muniz GIFS

I mean tbf most people probably thought Muniz would run through Allen, its only after the fight and Allen wins people act like it was an obvious matchup for Allen to win.

Yes. And if they’d given him a striker and that guy would have kicked his ass they would have complained about him being fed to a guy with great TDD.
 
@KazDibiase did you have any gifs of the Jordan Leavitt finish? My bad if I just missed it.

As always, you rock brother! Thanks!

Very true about UFC using matchmaking to their advantage to keep grapplers away from the title picture. I wish this was discussed more.
Same deal at HW with Blaydes. He's gonna have to fight all the top prospects (Aspinall was supposed to do the job but the worst possible scenario for the ufc happened. Now, they are counting on Pavlovitch to do the job).
The worst is, if he loses ONCE, I'm sure he's gonna have to fight and win 4 or 5 more fights before getting a shot.
Not being popular really sucks. I'm not really a fan, although I think he's becoming better with his striking. But he deserves more credit.
In all honestly, I'm fine with the UFC keeping him as far as possible from Gane, but it's not really fair.
 
Wonder what the odds were for Allen by submission. Probably would have made a mint
I think they were something crazy like +2500

Wild for a dude with 11 submissions before and 4 in the UFC.

This. Most had Muniz as the clear favourite and future title contender. Also, roughly half of them chose Muniz by submission (just check the prediction scorecards in the sticky thread).
 
Styles make fights. They were about equal on the feet, but Allen had better wrestling, both times they went down he ended up in a dominant position. They will use a guy like Allen as a gatekeeper to keep these BJJ or wrestling specialists far away from Izzy and Alex.
Izzy would do great against bjj and wrestling specialists. Pereira could be in trouble though

And the Cantender Series in general.
Muscled striker? Face a can and get pushed
Foreign and/or grappler? Face killers.
 
They did just sign Bo Nickal to that division. He probably transcends their worry about grapplers ruing the division, since he is apparently likable and has a fan base. Perhaps they want Allen to gate keep until Nickal can snatch up the belt.
Nickal is an all-american white guy who cuts promos and has a fanbase.
If his name was Bozuryck Nickaledomedov from Uzbekistan or Boraicca De La Nickalla from Brazil he'd not be getting can-fights and incessant hype.
 
How good is Malkoun's ground game in hindsight
 
Yeah that was a ridiculously good performance from Allen. Did not expect him to submit Muniz of all people. Truly impressive stuff.

Are you insinuating Medov’s aren’t white? Don’t understand what him being white has to do with it when i’ve seen plenty dudes white as snow from russia being boo’d for where they were born.

No; you clearly missed the point.
For a guy with a troll-Biden fetish you sure seem intentionally daft when it comes to the concept of ethnonationalism.

Ironic that an ideologue like you bothered by someone mocking Biden could call anyone daft.

Once again: Bo Nickal is an American very popular with the american-centric audience the UFC is promoting and using him for.
Can't wait to see what else you've got to add here.
