This is exciting.

Islam is a fucking beast and Khabib's successor.

 

[GrayArea]

Probably something underwhelming like vs Trinaldo

Hoping for something like barboza

 

[Flex Plexico]

YAH

No Khabib told the UFC to fuck off when they offered Islam Trinaldo.

Khabib has pull. Islam will get someone better.

 

[Spookv]

Oliviera?

 

[Phillyz]

No thanks we don't need these Dagestani hooligans in our city

 

[Pious Augustus]

it's not right for Barboza to give him back to back unranked fighters
It's Probably Trinaldo but I hope it's Lee

 

[Pious Augustus]

Oliviera?

He's already booked against David Teymur

Yeah, I want to see Lee vs Islam as well but Lee is supposedly moving to WW now.

 

[Spookv]

I don't know then, I just seriously hope it is someone ranked he deserves it. His wrestling is solid as it is and seems more comfortable in the stand up compared to his brother Khabib.

Why would number 5 lee face Islam with no top ten wins.
Can you guys stop living in dream land and look at it from both perspectives
It does absolutely nothing for lee

 

[ArmenianAssasin]

Im a fan but islam went from extremely under the radar to extremely overrated without even having to fight inside the octagon

how is trinaldo a bad fight? 13-5 in the ufc solid top 15 vet
fought much harder and proven competition

Islam's best win in Nick Lentz prolly -- hes only 2 years younger than khabib -- people making it seem like hes 20

new erick silva?

Islam would beat the fuck out of Lee.

It's not Lee though he's moving up to WW.

It's not Trinaldo either.

What does any of this have to do with my point
I didn’t bring Trinaldo up and I didn’t give an opinion on the fight
I said why would lee fight a 15 ranked guy

LOL the dumbasses that exemplified hooliganism by rioting and fucking up their own city after a Superbowl win are concerned about a handful of Dagestanis. Ok.

Barboza did.

 

[Thenewguysnm1]

Barboza did.

Barboza did coming off of two maulings
Lee is coming off a close decision to Al
You don’t go from that to fighting a guy with 0 tio 15 wins and a guy who does nothing for your ranking

the same way Gaethje and Barboza did it they both fought guys outside of the top 10
Lee is 1-2 in his last 3 fights, not very far away from Gaethje and Barboza

He's 3 years younger than Khabib and even Khabib's father said that Islam at his age is better than Khabib
