News Gables next opponent

[skylolow]

I think it is about right for Gable's next step up in comp. The dude has a lot of MMA experience, he hasn't beat anyone of note worthy, but if you have watched some of his fights he can fight. Can't complain about this match up.

Hoping a UFC contract comes after this.

Just fight Gane for the interim belt already...

 

[Killer Kadoogan]

how do you say can in mexican?

Thanks mods for leaving this thread here. Gable obviously not a UFC fighter but presumably UFC bound.

He is the type of fighter Gable should be fighting... not exactly world beater but should be outmatched:

But Steveson has little experience. People are hyping him to the moon and beyond. I'm glad he is taking these opponents and not rushing into the UFC.

So he is fighting a washed up grandpa that looks like an autist and is fat while not even being at lightheavy weight? That dude could even make LW lol.

 

[JBJ was here]

How long until the 11-3 opponent becomes a, “can?”

0 minutes. His only probably-better-than-can opponent was Emiliano Sordi (27-13 career, with a significant PFL stint and DWCS and Bellator appearances),who crushed Lezama in the first round. It's a step up for Steveson, who will be facing a true professional can for the first time rather than an up-jumped amateur who doesn't even reach can status.

interesting, he's fight a dude with a better record but it says he's a lhw. isn't gable like 260 lbs?

Pandamonio is a decently big dude who should not be fighting at LHW, he is one of those people who would benefit from a 225 division.

Many of the people on here calling him a LHW are the same people who despise wight cutting.

 

[El Fernas]

He's following the footsteps of boxing greats and fighting Mexican taxi drivers to start his career

As he probably should.

Lezama walked so Gable could run.

Embarrassing takedown defense, who is his wrestling coach.

 

[MrBean]

If Gabe was serious, he'd ditch Jon Jones' tutelage and get himself training with HammerHouse.

 

[prime_lobov]

Just sign him to the UFC already. Not like there’s a shortage of cans in the HW division.

 

[Neck&Neck]

Why is he jumping all over the place, each fight in a different Org.
