Gilbert is donezo

So you'd rather he fight yet another old timer past the age of 37 on a two fight losing streak? I just want him to face an actual challenge. If he can beat someone like JDM or Ian Garry it will be an actual accomplishment. If he fights Burns what will that actually tell us? Absolutely nothing, he'll get to keep his top 5 status, and he might even get another title shot off of it if he waits a year. I'm sick to my stomach of the old guys perpetually remaining in the rankings and only having to fight other old guys. Enough of that crap. Colby needs to fight someone under the age of 35.
He faced actual challenges and every time he did (Usman and Leon), he lost. 0-3, no wins over guys actively fighting on the roster.

Colby needs to fight Burns just to earn a shot at someone on the up. Geoff Neal is fine.

Hell, give Colby an unranked guy that is 25 for all i care. He 100% deserves a fight against Gilbert before a fight against JDM and Garry though. Those guys are too highly ranked at this point and Gilbert should be on the outside of the top5 at this point.

A win shouldn't do much for Colby at this point and he should need several wins before getting another shot. This is to say he deserves to maybe be in the top10, nothing more, nothing less.

Fuck no dude. He needs to fight someone younger who is not on a two fight losing streak. You are trying to line up for him the exact same matchup he's gotten the last 8 years. He needs to fight someone on a winning streak who is under the age of 35, period. No old guys who are about to retire, no favorable stylistic matchup. Cut the crap and give him someone legitimate. If he refuses, then drop his ass out of the top 10.
 
Cardio and energy not what it's used to be. Still, went 5 with an absolute beast like Brady says a lot. Probably a high level gatekeeper, but champ days are gone
 
It's not a fair comparison. Researches have shown correlation between hairline and physical prime. Tony's hairline is hanging on by 3 shrinking follicles, he's obviously megawashed, Gilbert on the other hand still has a teenager's hairline, it could just be a bad performance after a KO. He deserves another chance.

They should shave it off like GSP and Silva back in the day
 
can't agree at all.

he reversed brady every time brady initiated a grappling exchange. was extremely impressive.

durinho is still a big problem for most of the division.
I agree, he is not a top 5 fighter anymore but he is a solid top 10.

You're way too emotional about this. They could cut Colby tomorrow and I wouldn't give a shit.

You're doing exactly what drives me nuts. Giving him a number 1 contender match ffs and you're acting like i am the crazy one. How the fuck does he deserve a fight against the #1/2 contenders? That's fucking wild, dude. You want Colby to get a titleshot clearly far more than I do lol

Him fighting old fucks like Masvidal made no sense at the time because Masvidal had no business in top WW fights. Beating Gilbert Burns isn't earning you a titleshot my guy. It earns him a fight against a legit contender. That's it. You want him to skip a step I am refusing to let him skip.

I want him to fight someone worth a damn for once in his career. You want him to fight his fifth late 30s old guy with name value on a losing streak, then sit out a year until a title shot falls into his lap. Lol you can fuck right off with that BS.

I never said that last part, you made that up.

You want Colby who has 0 wins over UFC rostered fighters to have a #1 contender fight next.

You can absolutely fuck right off with that BS

You Colby stans always want your boy to get the easy matchup. You clowns always want someone in their late 30s with at least two losses in a row. Fuck off. It's gotta be someone under 35, in the top 7. No Gilbert Burns. No Wonderboy. Fuck off with that BS. He needs to fight someone younger than himself for once in his life.

You Colby fanboys are fucking deluded, man.

Colby is at least 3 wins away from a titleshot and you're sitting here trying to get him a fight against a striker in a #1 contender match while having 0 wins over fighters on the roster.

You Colby fanboys, man. Fucking wild and out there.

You're the Colby fanboy and your posts prior to his loss to Leon reflect that. Now you're pretending to be a critic while campaigning for your boy to get an easy matchup. Fuck off. No easy matchups for your boy. Someone under 35. Someone not on a two fight losing streak.

lol good lord you Colby fanboys are nuts.

1 win and you want him to get another titleshot. I literally said he could fight an unranked 25 year old and your clown ass is so angry you refuse to think logically and have gone full potato.

MMA fans make no sense to me.

LMAO fake. You were stanning him less than a year ago. You can't hide your own post history.

Show it. Fucking christ you're weird. What did I say? I'll wait.

You have already lied once in these replies. Let's see if you're just a pathological liar or not.

Colby going to make WW great again

Colby bless.
Literally all of your posts about Colby prior to his loss to Leon are nuthugging. And then you show up here trying to feed him another late 30s welterweight on a losing streak. <lol>
 
Just got around to watching the fights from Saturday night and Gilbert looked absolutely lifeless. He reminded me of Tony in the past couple rounds of the Gaethje fight. I don't think he wins another fight in the UFC. I do not think he should be ranked at this point. UFC Gods, please give his spot to someone younger. If he wants to fight again put him against some bum and let him ride off into retirement.
While I think he certainly is in the twilight of his career, I think he can still beat guys outside of top 20 and maybe a couple inside it. As far as competing for a title yeah they is over.
