Why would Hooker fight a dude ranked outside the top 10 when he just solidified himself in the top 7-8? Makes no sense. As if Islam would fight him if the roles were reversed.
Why would Islam duck Cerrone? Does anybody duck Cerrone? Most fighters like to call him out because he will fight anyone. Islam needs a step up in competition. Islam should look from 10-14. Gillespie has a fight but Oliviera or Pettis might be a good fight for him. Hooker vs Felder anybody? Felder rescinded his willingness to fight Barboza again so he needs a new opponent. Hooker vs Felder makes a fun fight. Book it Dana!Where was Islam when Gregor Gillespie needed a fight?
Has he ever called out Charles Oliveira?
Cerrone will fight anyone, has he ever called him out?
I don't care what you say about Davi Ramos' ground skills. This is MMA not BJJ. Davi lost to David Rickles and his wins were over no one you have heard of.
Hooker is now #7 in the division and Islam is #15.................... though his best win is over Gleison Tibau.
Islam should kick rocks and Cormier should let Islam deal with it.
I think TS is trying to justify why Dan Hooker is ducking Islam. Because Islam called out Mr Hooker and Mr Hooker wants nothing to do with it by putting a really pathetic excuse out that if he were to fight him, he would have to give out tickets for free.
Islam also called out Paul Fielder many times since his fight with Barbosa. From what I know Fielder hasn't even replied. It's obvious most guys don't want to fight Islam.

no...Hooker just got destroyed by Barboza
Islam hasnt been destroyed lately
also Ramos would fuck Yaquinta up
Felder won't fight him. Felder says he wants a top 5. Hooker is ducking too. Cerrone might be a possibility. I'd love to see him fight Hooker but Hooker is playing Hookie.Islam has a more impressive streak than 10-14.
One of Hooker or Felder should be booked with Islam.
Gregor Gillespie is fighting Lee because?Where was Islam when Gregor Gillespie needed a fight?

and the least strikes absorbed in UFC history something like 0.76 strikes per minInteresting fact: Islam has the most efficient striking in the top 15 at 63% landed.

/QUOTE]
Isn't Gregor booked with Kevin Lee? Islam called out Kevin Lee for over 2 years. So your reasoning is a bit flawed mate.Felder, ay? Another "pure" striker, ay.
The ground fighters that Islam has faced in the UFC have been low level fighters. Other than that it seems he wants "pure" strikers.
Why not call out Gregor or someone like that?
New flash: Fighters can have bad nights.Hooker just got destroyed by Barboza
Islam hasnt been destroyed lately
