Media Islam vs Kamaru Usman Face-Off Backstage UFC 324

[RockyLockridge]

Islam looking for the easiest fights to pad that winning record.

story of his life

 

[VinceArch]

Rather it be someone else at 170. Where the hell has Shavkat been?

 

[Luckyme]

Ali doing Ali things, wouldn't declare it indicative of anything. Hopefully Morales ends up getting the next title shot instead.

Morales and Ian Garry are more deserving but given the recent direction of UFC's matchmaking, it's likely going to be Usman.

If Morales doesn't get the title shot, they should match him up with Prates.

Cute and all. This matchup is indeed the most intriguing BUT it absolutely shouldn't happen. Usman has done NOTHING to earn this. Being 1-3 in his last four doesn't get him a shot at the belt no matter how intriguing this matchup is. Shavkat, Morales, Garry, and Prates are ahead of him. He needs at least 1 (I'd say 2) more dominant win.

 

[Pancake Sprawl]

man i love these Dagestanis. anywhere, any time, anybody. and they literally mean anybody, a guy can be 1-3 and they'll STILL give him a chance at the belt.

i would laugh my ass off if Usman ended up destroying Islam somehow

 

[Stagliano]

Lame pretenders. In Pride they would brawl backstage.

Before to read your comment I was just wondering who would win in a backstage brawl between them lol

WTF is intriguing about this match up? Islam is the champion so he needs to defend against a legit #1 contender. Usman is on a 1 fight win streak after losing 3 in a row so what would be intriguing would be Usman either turning back an up and comer getting beat by one. He derailed Buckley but lets see him vs Morales or even better Prates. Prates beating two former champs in a row puts him up there for contention. If Usman wins he beat 2 surgin guys in a row and can be considered for a title eliminator.

Islam vs Usman is not worth seeing. I couldn't care less about the outcome.

 

[Koro_11]

Fuck off Marty, you’ve been irrelevant for years, no one gives a shit about you.

 

[Alpha_T83]

Islam trying to be his own matchmaker is kinda lame. But I do genuinely believe he wants to fight Kamaru.

 

[BroRogan]

That's not a face off. That is Abdelaziz trying to force something to happen that hopefully never happens. It should be Shavkat vs Islam and if Usman wants a last shot he should have to fight Morales. That can be a #1 contender fight.

Ali was the cameraman

 

[WoozyFailGuy]

Like Jones vs Stipe, I simply wouldn't watch the card if this fight was made.

Ali Abdelaziz is a boil on the ass of MMA.

 

[SamuraiBro]

Usman is so fucking corny. Sick of the dude.

 

[Russie]

It's going to happen. Let's get the fight over with already.

 

[The XL]

He ducked Ilia and all the legit WW contenders to fight a washed Usman. I don't understand why the UFC is indulging in this nonsense, it's not like the fight is going to draw.

 

[JoeRowe]

Ali doing Ali things, wouldn't declare it indicative of anything. Hopefully Morales ends up getting the next title shot instead.

Morales, Shavkat, Garry, even Prates would be better

 

[CroCopsLHK]

Nobody wants this fight

Fuck both of them

 

[AL-Tappo McSnappo]

 

[Axe720]

Usman was 30% in character until Khabib told him to settle down

 

[TheNewGame]

Usman is still a better fighter than Gaethje, but obviously neither guy should be getting the next titleshot.

Arman and Morales/Garry/Shavkat pls.

 

[RichardHarrow]

I can’t say this enough- screw this fight. It’s The Worst match up.
