Islam/Oliveira 2 over Tsarukyan makes no sense to me. If Tsarukyans back isn't severely fucked up, just book it for the summer?

 

[muaytao]

islam to 170

 

[Brigfa2]

Charles doesn't deserve it, Pantoja is scared of 135

 

[tat2man5k]

No way should Islam/Oliveira be next. Oliveira is 2-2 in his last 4

Charles dropped out 10 days before the fight and had to fight Arman to get a title shot again (and lost).... Shouldn't the same happen with Arman?
Go get W

He didn't have to. He just decided to because the 300 spot was too good to pass up. He could've waited on Islam but the deal was too good.

It's like when Dustin decided to fight Conor in the trilogy instead of fighting for the title.

Conor money is different obviously but it's another example of a fighter choosing money/exposure over titleshot.

Considering that Arman beat Oliveira last year, I still feel that Arman vs. Islam needs to be rebooked for the Spring/Summer, and Oliveira should fight another top contender to earn another title shot (since he is 2-2 in his last 4 fights, and already got finished by Islam).

 

[LoveMyMMA]

Islam needs a new name, a new belt.

Just fight Belal man.

That's not the case, Charles would wait 45 days if it was the case. The UFC considered that he had his title shot but got injured and lost it.
Believe me, Brazilians were mad here.
With the whole 1 day before the fight thing I can totally see the UFC using the same argument with Arman. But who knows, they'll do what they think will generate more money.

 

[Tohm]

It has to be Islam x Tsarukyan, unless if Tsarukyan is seriously injured. I don't even think that Tsarukyan beats him, but it's the fight to make, both guys won against Charles too.

 

[AndrewGolota48]

I would personally like to see Umar vs Yan.

 

[Mmmmmmma1234]

I'd say Islam at ww, but we got Ramadan coming then shavkat vs belal so just rebook him and Arman.

It wasn't about the time dude. He didn't wanna pass up fighting at UFC 300. Islam fought at 302, a card that sucked in name power. Big difference in exposure/money. What's hard to get? You say believe me but where are you getting it from?

Charles talked about this situation leading up to the fight.

Dana already said that he's not going to just get rebooked. He has to fight someone else

Didn’t Dana say at the presser that he needs another win and can get a TS next year?
Didn’t watch the presser, but read comments online.

 

[tritestill]

Charles getting the shot is lol

Merab vs Yan
Umar vs O’Malley
Jiri vs Jan/Ulberg winner
Hill vs Rakic

Also Danas statements are 60% bullshit on post fight pressers. But it's entertaining so we watch anyways
