Just a reminder. Everyone thought that Ankalaev should already be the champion

[Dreyga_King of Sherbums]

The Ankalaev robbery was just horrible

He was crying while walking back to the locker-room... Extremely horrible robbery.. Tonight was probably worst robberies and makes the Omallay-Yan one look good in comparison

He should get the next title shot 100% and the UFC and Pereira are ducking him, but Jan won the first 3 rounds while Ank won the last two. If anything Jan should have won that fight.

Don't say everyone, if that's the pointy cartoon nose guy I don't think he's that great. Unless he relies heavily on his wrestling, he'll get knocked out too. And even if he relied on wrestling that's not a guarantee he'll beat Poaton.

To be completely transparent I thought the draw was fair

Yup

 

[Dreyga_King of Sherbums]

Yup

But still MOST people on Sherdog thought he won

 

[Dionysian]

Obviously they want him to lose to Rakic in hopes of Alex never fighting a grappler.

Just like obviously they wanted to knock Merab off contention by matching him against Aldo, then vs Yan, then vs Cejudo (literally every elite TDD guy they had in their entire division) in hopes of Sean not getting exposed.

How much more blatantly obvious does this shit need to be before people realize it's rigged.

They know it’s rigged. They just don’t care as long their favorites keep winning

 

[SuperNerd]

Hespectfully, I know some of those names.

My sherdog account is older than they've been covering MMA.

You might as well show a bunch of Sherdog black belts and tell me what they thought.

 

[DreyDay]

I am tired of some of you retards hating on Ank and saying he doesn't deserve a title shot, just because you think he's "boring". Can't wait till he wrestle fucks Pereira for 5 rounds and makes you guys whine and screech

That wasn't what everyone thought those are media scores. The fans thought it was boring and Ank got his leg kicked off for 3 rounds. Not enough to be champion sorry.

Comparing Alex to Sean now are we? Lol the Alex haters are so pathetic they have to pretend he's like Sean O'Malley. Just stop watching MMA. It passed you by and your favorite fighters are washed and retired now

 

[flektarn]

Watching it live, a tie was accurate. He looked like shit the first three rounds. Don't care what media retards say. Acting like a diva after he didn't get the win and having a fit is icing on the cake.
edit: a "champ" who couldn't decisively beat Jan, and hasn't beat any of the other top guys like Jiri, hill, Rakic, Glover (at the time). There's nothing more "paper champ" than a guy who skipped over all of the good talent at LHW.

That's why you should stop watching and talking about the UFC, it only helps them.
Time to boycott!

Well said. Also, screw this fight every 3 months bullshit, 1-2 defenses a year is more than enough.

Some still have a legit "it's still real to me dammit" mentality but more have made peace with it and internalized the WWE aspects thinking that as long as it benefits the fighters they are programmed to like they can live with it. That tacit acceptance is even worse IMO, because that way the corruption can never be legitimately fought.

I don't hate Alex in the slightest. I hate fucking fixed fights and corruption. Why don't you?

If the UFC didn't want me to compare the two of them then they should have not adopted the exact same promotional strategy between the two of them. Pro fighters never having a professional bout vs a grappler prior to a fucking title shot in the world's premiere MMA org. What a joke.

The truth (pointing out corruption) doesn't help liars (TKO), the truth helps the truth. Anyone who gives a shit about the sport should point out corruption when it happens. I give a shit, hence why I still post about what they're doing to the sport I love.

What directly "helps" and empowers TKO in their corruption are fans accepting lie as reality/normalizing corruption through silence. See above.

Thing is, I give Rakic a decent chance. His wrestling is ok and his kicks are great.

 

[Pechan]

Is that the fight where he hugged for dear life because a 40 year old man was lighting him up on the feet?

Yes absolutely he has a decent chance. That's why they made the fight. The objective is to derail Ank.
