Media Dana White: Khabib Returning In September, Ben Askren vs Jorge Masvidal, Conor McGregor's Arrest

[Crimp_Keeper]

Wtf I thought askren and mas wouldnt fight eachother??

Askren and Woodley* won’t fight each other.

 

[Marc A]

I like that fight Askren vs Masvidal
Great co main event and easy 450k ppv buys due to Askren

 

[Craisier]

If Maia can take down and control Jorge for a long period of time, I'm sure Askren can do the same thing.

 

[Hardcore MMA]

Masvidal better train with his boy Colby for this fight. Colby can immitate Askrens style well.

 

[Pious Augustus]

Wtf I thought askren and mas wouldnt fight eachother??

they hate each other

 

[GreatSaintGuillotine]

Wrestle fuck or shocking KO. Flip a coin.

 

[Leonard Haid]

Askren would destroy Masvidal, bad matchup.

Still, it's as if Dana is determined to have Askren beaten up with these match-ups. The first heavy-handed assassin sort of succeeded, but still lost the fight. Masvidal is another heavy-handed assassin.

 

[NoBiasJustMMA]

You guys are underestimate masvidal wrestling and TDD

Na, Lawler is better than Masvidal at both, Askren is just that good of a wrestler.

 

[Eusung]

If Askren wins against #3 ranked Masvidal......

Askren vs. Colby (Masvidal's BFF)

or

Askren vs. Marty

are both very marketable fights

 

[Pressure Project]

nobody but a 1 punch KO artist beats Ben. Robbie is one of those guys.

Masvidal couldn't even get a 2 piece in before he was on the ground.

 

[davidlemonparty]

Even moreso than usual, I wouldn't believe anything that comes out of Dana's mouth on the topic of Askren. We all know he hasn't buried that hatchet.

Cliffs?

Edit - got my green belt, sweet! Is there a list somewhere of how many posts are required for each belt?

Yes there is

 

[DLX]

Unfortunate because I've become a bigger fan of Masvidal after his KO of Till and "3 piece and a soda". But I gotta go with my boy Askren. I think he struggles at first, but his chain wrestling will overwhelm Masvidal.

It'll be interesting to see how Ben does in this fight compared to Maia.

 

[Meathead Jock]

Oh hell yeah, that fight has Chicago written all over it. Seems like an easy fight for Askren, which I love, get that title fight.

Askren's ability to self promote had his bosses telling Dana to not slow down his train with a rematch.

 

[dmwalking]

I don't want Askren vs Masvidal. That fight will suck.

 

[Underdog bjj jp]

Jorge would fuck ben up, Ben has the worst stand up in history of stands up

[snackgod]

[snackgod]

What happened to the Robbie rematch? Dude is shifty as fuck.

it takes to fighters to agree to a deal. maybe robbie wants something else.

 

[TriangleMonkey]

Ben has the worst stand up in history of stands up

Goddamn truth right there, prob the only reason I dont like Ben. I have respect for his grappling and have since he joined Bellator but damn it hurts my eyes watching him “strike”.
