Leon vs Colby will be in December

[Deleted member 592822]

Colby doesn't want Abu Dhabi and has been adamant about that. Jones vs Stipe is enough to headline MSG doesn't really need a co-main. They have no fight for the December card so yeah it'll probably be it, which sucks big time.

You have Belal, Shabbat and Usman all iced up because of this stupid fight and the stupid time it takes to make. Unbelievable

What an absolute joke of a fight. They should just scrap this bs and make Leon and Belal in Abu Dhabi, since both really want to fight there. But it seems like Colby has pictures of Dana doing some shady shit or whatever.

I feel like they're holding off from making the Colby x Leon fight just in case they don't find someone in time for Islam and really do go with Leon vs Belal for that Abu Dhabi card instead.

I wouldn't be so sure that it wouldn't be co-main on the MSG card, Jones' last few cards he's headlined have all had title fights for co-mains.

 

[CieloLuce]

Why cant they fight between September-November?

This isn't a big fight either, both fighters have had ample time to rest and get a camp ready. Pointless to keep WW division waiting again.

Scrap it all, strip Leon and book the title fight between Shavkat and GOATlal

If they set it up for December ad Colby gets injured it will be hilarious. Guy will have sitted out the majority of his prime voluntarily

Imagine having zero claim to a title shot but getting it anyway, AND THEN denying where and when you get that shot.

Fuck are you talking about?

Really dragging this out. Could have just fought in july. Already not liking this leon title reign

Would be pretty funny for Colby to have to fight on the undercard of the dude who used to plow out his mom in college

Léon already fought in March. He's ok to fight in Abu Dhabi in October that's Colby who refuses. Colby didn't fought since March 2022 for the reminder. Belal is available for Abu Dhabi. Just saying

It's actually insane Colby is being seriously considered for a title shot.....

 

[Cobra 03]

How does Covington support himself? Seems like he never fights.

 

[Tweak896]

If Colby loses he'll be 1-3 in his last 4, with his last win over an active fighter on the roster being RDA in 2018 over 5 years ago. What a trash record, hope he comes in rusty and can't take down Edwards.

 

[JoeRowe]

Dana just said on Saturday it will be Abu Dhabi or MSG.

I think free TV on OCT 28th is more plausible than DEC.

 

[Huligani]

Colby's not even a draw

 

[VinceArch]

Colby goes to Abu Dhabi he's going to have a jihad out on him. I say make him go.

The UFC obviously got to ONE BILLION DOLLARS in gross sales last year by being at the business of sports entertainment. So of course they don't know what they're doing by matching Covington with Edwards, rather than Muhammad or someone else no one likes or knows.

Yeah because we’re all so concerned with how much the UFC will make. Get a clue bud

 

[Gamboal]

Colby will be almost 36 by then. No-one cares about him at this point and the lost to Edwards will be more or less the end of his career.

well his "fans" sure so. keep telling me he deserves the TS because "he made weight on another continent". Not because he won fights. Because he made weight. Sic.
