Don’t know much about the guy other than he subbed Kevin Holland which is impressive on most days but Kevin is kind of crazy and inconsistent.

What challenges does RDR present to Bo and his self proclaimed skills?

Seems if RDR cant stop a takdown, it will be another boring fight on Bo’s resume.
 
I'd say it's a stiff test. Like 90% full hard type of test.

Anyhow RDR via reverse triangle

Bo Kimble is a future champ once he gets to the UFC.. Reminds me of the great prospect Eric Silva
Eric Silva had all the tools but just did not have the right tools if you know what i mean.
 
Bo Nickal's striking isn't anything impressive ahha, we're gonna get a very sloppy striking battle
Well he marginally outstruck Paul crag so I guess another 29-28 of him marginally outstriking RDR. I'm cheering for RDR don't get me wrong but he is glacially slow on the feet.

This kid's gonna talk a whole bunch more shit about how amazing his skillset is yet he's gonna be scared again to grapple with the sharks.
 
So another guy tailored for Bo to win…

Damn you UFC, why cherry pick for this tool??

How is this cherry picking?

Everyone sooked because Bo was being given guys who couldn't grapple, then he got Craig and won via striking. People then sooked because he didn't use his grappling.

Like, what do you want Bo to do? Deliberately fight his opponents in the area that they're good at just to prove a point?
 
I like Bo Ketchup and normally I like to see him do well.....but it would also be nice to see him brought down to Earth for a minute.

He's literally claiming he's the best grappler at MW (better than Khamzat, he's said multiple times), you can't say that and bitch out of grappling with Paul Craig when 2 fights ago he got dominanted and mauled by Brendan Allen on the ground.

People are hating Bo because he is not backing up the shit he's saying.
 
RDR was a two weight champ in ONE. His striking isn't great, but he does have a degree of power, if he lands, and he's better at it than Craig. Mostly uses it to setup TDs or clinches, bc grappling is his true strength, and he is great at it. This is kinda similar to the Craig fight, except RDR could potentially hurt Bo standing. If Bo wasn't interested in grappling with Craig, he will avoid grappling RDR, to the death. If Bo wins, he will have earned a degree of respect, bc I think he loses, handily.
