MM's Last Challenger Is Now Fighting On 223 Prelims

[YOLOGOGOPLATA]

Ray Borg is the 2nd of 4 fights on the FS1 prelims for UFC 223.
Demetrious encounters better competition gaming on Twitch.
Would you all rather see DJ fight TJ at 125, or should they just scrap the 125 division and force DJ to go up to 135? There is no other division in the UFC that a fighter could go from a title fight straight to prelims.

DJ needs to go up and stay there. Let the other manlets have their turn.

Prelims on a pretty stacked card

Borg is a good fighter, but if the division had more depth I don't think he'd be able to get a shot. Plus he sucks at making weight.

that's fair. I didn't mean to hate on Borg, I actually like him. I just think it's crazy for a title challenger to fight in the prelims immediately after a title shot. It says a lot about the state of the division.

Not at all surprising. If Demetrius is serious about getting paid more, he should seek out opponents people are willing to pay to see him fight. If he wants to continue padding his paper "legacy", fish out another "deserving contender" from the top 15 for him to face on the next lowest drawing Fight Night.

DJ is a pain in everyones ass. Just take on a real challenge already. Theres nothing left to do at 115 or whatever he fights at.

 

[ryanrandy]

I think his only challenge at 125 isnt even in the UFC. Jose Torres is the real deal. Like to see him get a couple wins in UFC first then challenge MM

If Bagautinov, Horiguchi, Dodson, and Lineker were still there it wouldn't ne nearly so bad. If...

 

[linvillegorge]

The 125 division just needs to get scrapped. It's paper thin and fans don't care about it. MM just wants to sit there and crush cans and proclaim himself the GOAT and bitch about not getting paid when people don't care to see him fight tiny cans anyway.

This card isn't "stacked" at all.

At least the man headlined the prelims lol. Good point though.

You're an idiot.

If we could get Kyoji and Ali back that would be fucking great.

Nah, I'd have to say you're probably a UFC shill.


How exactly is it stacked?


Which HUGGGGGEEEEE fights should I be looking out for?



Spoiler: You won't answer this post because you know the card isn't stacked.

 

[VanMMA]

Fight order doesn't mean much.

I'll stick up for @McSpikes here. A stacked card doesn't mean there is one HUGEEEEE fight. 223 has 5 really good fights on the main card. Even if you hate WMMA, Rose/Joanna is as good as it gets for the co-main and the 3 fights before that are all high quality. Dude just learn to disagree, it's not a big deal to have a different opinion than someone else.
