If RDR fights 4 times a year, one of his fights should be DDP in 2026

[Rhood]

RDR fought 4 times this year (2025) and fought 3 times in 2024.
Most likely he'll fight 4 more times in 2026.
DDP should be amongst 1 of his 4 opponents in 2026.
Possibly schedule DDP/RDR on a Summer blockbuster card? What do you think?

Anyone else miss DDP?

 

[Question]

I don't think RDR should get DDP after losing to Allen, if anything I think DDP/Allen makes more sense considering they have a bit of a feud going on since DDP joined the UFC back in 2020/2021

Maybe RDR/Costa or RDR/Pyfer?

He lost in a bad way, worse than DDP lost against Khamzat, i don't think he should fight anybody higher than top 15

RDR said he will be slowing down and we probably won't see him for a bit. Meanwhile he's back to 8th ranking so he's not getting DDP without something in-between.

DDP is the #1 guy and needs a fight soon. I'd expect he fights Fluffy or Allen next.

 

[Othman]

Won't see him before a while, when he comes back RDR vs DDP is a matchup that NEEDS to happen.

 

[Hymen Crusher]

He needs a break. Fighting that much is insane this day and age. He looked drained and he did against bobby too. I think he deserves one shit showing let's see if he gets his body right. Get on that Russian once every 15 month plan. The islam plan.

DDP vs whoever thinks is next after Imavov

I didn't say DDP would be next.
If RDR fights 4 times a year, DDP would be the #2 or #3 opponent.
RDR will probably fight someone like Dolidze, and beats him in January or February, and then he'll have another fight lined up in June 2026. This is where the DDP fight should be.

There's a pattern with RDR if you haven't noticed yet.

Nah
Guys that fight often have the ability to jump swiftly back in the rankings.
Poatan & Kevin Holland are prime examples.
RDR will probably get someone lower ranked, then after that a bit higher ranked.

hes not fighting 4 fights a year back to back.

Oh in that case, it's possible if he wins his next fight in impressive fashion
I definitely think he needs to take some time off considering how much weight he's cut in the last year or so, but DDP will most likely be active next year too

 

[heohanwuoc]

DDP would break him, mentality

 

[fjodor]

Feed RDR to Costa. I want to see Chimaev vs. Paulo.

RDR would beat that ass. Even FDR would beat his ass.

 

[MigitAs]

He needs a bounce back fight.

Give him Costa

DDP said he is taking 9-12 months of to focus on wrestling
