Is the current MW division the most bizarre division ever?

[Fight Professor]

Strickland and Izzy have very unusual personalities in their own ways. Dricus easily made them cry with mental warfare that was not even disrespectful. Costa is pretty strange as well with his reactions.

Then you've got fighters like Khamzat, Bo Nickal, Michel Periera, Shara the Pirate, Vettori who never learned how to put his shorts on.

Aliskerov was asking for "Bo Knuckle" but got Bobby Knuckles instead and got destroyed in a minute.

I was rocked when I found out they were from New Zealand

Glad DDP cleared out the division. It was disgraceful having two crybabies like Izzy & Strickland as champs.

I dunno what you mean by "bizarre" when we got Omalley as the BW champ and he has the momentum to become the greatest BW ever.

 

[Kung Fu Kowboy]

DDP has a win over the #1 and #2 contenders... Pretty much time to challenge for the 205 belt

I'm not even sure he could have won the title if the UFC didn't stack the deck against Aljo. That was the closest thing to fight-fixing I've seen in the UFC.

if he beats Merab soundly and then is victorious against Umar. Its hard to say that Dom is still better than him.

125 mens is the most bizarre division for me. it was supposed to be eliminated years ago, they trade off mighty mouse who is the best 125er ever for ben askren. ccc wins the belt in a razor close decision and there was never even mention of a rematch. the belt bounced back and forth from figgy and moreno. totally strange division in my eyes.

Agreed.

The UFC trades MM. They then hire TJ as a mercenary to beat Henry and close the division. TJ loses and pops for EPO. Henry vows to keep 125 alive, but never fights at 125 again. Moreno and Figgy fight 4 times for some strange reason. And now we have Pantoja, who has wins (in some cases, multiple wins) over most of the top 10, and most people don't care and still think he isn't all that good.

HW is pretty bizarre RN too. Not so much personality wise, but situation wise...

Lol what do you mean "not disrespectful"? Sure, Sean is a knucklehead and it was the chickens coming home to roost, but using a fighters childhood trauma to taunt and trash talk them is super disrespectful.

As for your point, I think MW has the most characters and the most varied out of all divisions.

Dricus - Looks like a frat bro, goofy fight style, jacked and thick, chill even when being attacked, unique accent

Izzy - Black Nigerian-born Anime Weaboo

Sean - Talks like he has bodies buried in his backyard, but fights like he is sparring. Former racist (according to himself), inflammatory on Twitter, but has (might?) have a heart of gold.

Rob - Lovable bloke with a chill demeanor. Family man.

Khamzat - Absolute wild man who is always hurt or sick. Maybe there is a curse placed on him to stop his true power from being released?

Shara - Pirate. One eyed, crazy red hair. Crazy fight style.

Vettori - Italian Orc.

Costa - aesthetic and jecket Bodybuilder who imhas a carefree attitude and is always meming on Twitter.

Cannonier - beard style from the 70s, believes in crystals and shit
