He's the champion and he's set to fight in like a month. He can talk all he wants.He's talking too much...
Alot of you guys have turned on Merab as well. For what?
This, the only thing is that this guy has a belt, but it feels the same, fight will be shit, and they will have to be separated a few times in the build up that still no one cares about.Umar v. Kape vibe -- same playbook of threatening Epic Cage Beatdown to build up the fight -- and neither showed up for that level of violence.
Merab v. O'Malley given the big stage UFC Noche $20 mil production -- both failed to show up for the Epic Cage Beatdown.
Now Merab v. Umar -- talking shit that it's personal, gonna smesh, blah blah blah...
I remain skeptical.
Ever since Umar became the next contender, Merab has been acting strangely lol.
Merab has a deep seated hatred for Russians, he almost turned red when Cejudo spoke some Russian to him.
He's fighting him in a month. Where's the duck?Are we supposed to like it when champions do everything they can to angle & pivot out of fighting the next contender up?
He talked up fights with Figgy, Yan and even an O'Malley rematch for months and tried to duck Umar until it was clear he had to fight him next.
Yeah, it's totally uncalled for. especially for a georgian the animosity towards russia is extremly strange. what's next? ukrainians not liking russians for no reason at all.Holy shit lol. I never seen that before, that's some crazy, weird hatred that people have for Russians.
