How crazy is it that the best MMA fighter in the world literally CAN'T fight in the UFC

No, Stipe at least doesn’t beat Hall without a weight limit.

Think youre letting the last loss to Jones cloud your judgement. Stipe easily outboxes him from distance, tires him out, lands a takedown when hes tired and gnp's him out.
 
Hall would be serious danger for any non heavy fighter and probably most hw fighters for about a minute, then it would be all over.

Would be fun to watch though.

Why won't they allow it? It's this another false narrative you just puking out your asshoe? And who gives a fuck if they can't fight in the US? There is like literally millions of other countries to fight in. We already see the UFC whoring of the middle eat.

Please reply so I can read another low IQ turd bucket comment.

Wow, you are such a genius with your name calling.
At the end of this post there are a couple of sites. If you look, they have a Super HW division for over 265, but they do not have openweight. Most commissions will not sanction a fight when someone weighs 220 fighting against someone weighing 280--a span of two classes.

Classes matter because weight and strength matters. Just as the initial post noted.

Why fight in the US? Here are at least two reasons: 1. the company and fighters typically make more when the fight in the U.S. and Canada 2. It is not wise to do a largely unnecessary fight and anger commissions around the world who frown upon freak fights--even if they did not sanction it.

Maybe the Mideast can throw some money behind fights like that, but they generally prefer an athletic and strategic contests. Think ADCC.

MMA Weight Classes In Order (Lbs & Kgs) - TEFMMA

While it's true that skill often beats size in a fight, when the skill level is equal, size starts to play an even more significant role. The larger man would usually win if two fighters were evenly matched in terms of skill. This is why weight classes were invented, to ensure the...

There's a reason it's called the Hall of Fame and not the Pudzianowski of Fame, imo.
 
Bro watching weightlifting comps.

Eddie Hall vs Anthony Smith

RIZIN make it happen
<20>
 
Lol Hall would get smoked in the UFC. Also he is roided like crazy. If he was not on roids he would be 260 lbs at best.
 
Hardly the best in the world lol. He would be defeated easily by speed and technique.
 
a strongman who trained in MMA beat another strongman who trained in MMA, clearly demonstrating that strongman can beat everyone else who trains in MMA
 
The real reason they won't sign him is because of racism.

Wow, had to look it up as I didn't believe it. Pudz is old but he still had a decades long MMA career following his strongman. To lose to Eddie who was making his MMA debut, kinda sad.

I was sure he'd demolish Eddie, who lost to Hafthor in their boxing match.

So I finally watched Hafthor vs Eddie and it was obvious that Eddie had a major injury to his left arm. Did you actually watch the fight? I have a hard time believing that a long time fight fan didn't pick up on that, AND the fact that Eddie was clearly the more naturally talented boxer of the two. Eddie with two good arms finishes Hafthor within a few rounds, I truly believe that. Heck he floored him and was competitive with one fucking arm. They are not in the same league, Eddie is much more talented in boxing. Grappling might be a different story, from what I've seen Hafthor is probably better.
