I think RDR will duck Fluffy like the bubonic plague

[Doctor Grudge]

RDR has taken whatever fights offered including risky ones. I think it's clear he'll do anything to try to get a title shot, so it really depends on what awards are promised to him if he fights Fluffy.

Fluffy lost to knees and punches....

RDR has those long shank knees.

RDR fought Malykhin - he doesn't fear anyone.

that's a great point, glad someone realized that. He fought him twice, once after losing to him brutally

5+ years ago I used to confuse De Ridder and Du Plessis, never thought they'd both move to the UFC and be on a collision course

Who's Fluffy? I'm still curious on this RDR fighter... His fight vs Whittaker looked interesting, it was a nice fight, but it was a very tough fight too, and Whittaker was coming off 2 losses in first and second rounds to DDP and Khamzat... Is RDR this good to be a match for Khamzat or DDP? And I've never heard of Fluffy... Much like Imanov, and RDR specially, kind of came outta nowhere to the UFC. Even tho his fight vs Whittaker was interesting, I've never seen ppl discussing a fight so much like that, like... What was hanging on that fight, did they have a huge beef or something? Plus, that fight was kinda weird too, it seems the audience sound was off. Just like the Rountree vs Hill fight... It was in a radio silent place, no one there, no crowd. I can't even find the full fight. Seemed like a strange eeriely energy, with both having some huge hatred for some reason...

Idk why but some fights are being shown kinda random, in strange settings, with a weird tension or narrative. Again, who tf is Fluffy lol

 

[KO Shotz]

It's funny to me how some accuse fighters of ducking ppl with absolutely no evidence to back up in saying so lol

 

[CobraCobretti]

RDR vs Fluffy is the fight to make.

Imavov/Caio should be for the title shot, especially if Imavov wins. Fluffy is impressive but he beat Roman Dolidze. While RDR beat Whittaker, it was far from impressive and you don't get title shot after something like that. So Khamzat vs Imavov and RDR/Fluffy for the #1

 

[deadshot138]

Typical Sherdog. Somebody gets a good win and suddenly they're a world beater that will be ducked by everyone.

 

[Tapatio]

Fluffy destroys RDR no doubt.

 

[Hymen Crusher]

Rdr has way more momentum he shouldn't fight him. He can get one of the big Dawgs at mw next. Fluffy needs to go against a legit fighter, Strickland or someone like that

 

[Ramon Antonio]

RDR would fuck fluffy up but it doesn’t make sense for him to fight him right now. He is much closer to a title shot.

 

[CatchtheseHands]

RDR's main weapon is his knees which he hides by having his left hand cocked for a punch and looking like he's shooting for a takedown. Opponents are left to guess which attack he will be going for. Fluffy just hugging RDR can avoid having to deal with this guessing game and I am not convinced RDR has better BJJ (or wrestling) than Dolidze or Allen.

Dude are you serious? You Have to be trolling. RDR has better BJJ than both Allen and Especially Dolodize. RDR has something like 70-80% of his wins are via submission.

What the actual hell? You don't know who they guy that just dominated last night's main event even is? FFS dude...

I could see RDR getting the next shot, if the winner of Caio/Imavov gets injured or otherwise isn't ready for when the champ wants to defend.

If not, he should fight someone for a #1 contenders fight.

Could be Fluffy, could be loser of DDP/Khamzat, loser of Caio/Imavov, maybe even Izzy or Strickland, but then they (Izzy/Strick) should need at least another win to get another shot.

It's fun that there are so many new potential matchups at the top of MW now.

 

[BowserJr]

It would be a move down for RDR.

Not an easy fight but I think RDR wins

Interesting matchup for sure

 

[BigGucciSosa]

Ban the word duck on here please

It is! MW is so stackedr right now.

Dricus, Khamzat, Caio, Imavov, Reindeer, or Fluffy could all be champs in a years time.
