Well shit, if they keep giving him monsters he's going to be 0-5, 0-6 before we know it and everyone will be calling for him to retire. I definitely think he should get a step down in competition for his next one. If he can win, then see about stepping it back up. I do like the idea of Tony fighting Conor, for a number of reasons, but I'm not so sure that's the fight UFC is gonna push for when Conor gets back. They'll probably give him Chandler or a freaking title shot right out of the gate.
I think promotion is just gonna try to milk him dry. He is getting older and he can be a little crazy. We all seen this before. UFC protects certain folks and they grind others down. I don't think Tony is popular enough to protect.
I like this way more than Tony/Paddy. Tony via sub.Of course Tony is way more physically imposing than Guida, and if this were 3-4 years ago people would be laughing their asses off at what a joke fight this was. But given the circumstance of the present moment I feel like this fight actually makes some sense. Tony is 0-4 in his last 4 and is definitely on the downswing of his career. Guida is 2-2 in his last 4. Both guys are old now (for MMA). Both don't have a chance at the title. However, both are still bangers and legends of the sport and I feel like this could still be a wild and entertaining fight. Of course Tony is still the favorite, but at this point, I think Guida gives him a good fight. If nothing else it helps Tony get back in the win column.
I think people are overrating Chandler. Wasn't that long ago FW Pitbull put dem lights out.
Yeah, Paddy should fight Dober next.
