Ok so now that it has been announced who is coming over to the UFC and who isn't the picture has become a bit more clear. Barnett is still on the fence, but besides that it looks like we know who is coming and who isn't with the exception of one. Feijao. I haven't seen any threads about it and no articles mention him, but what is your opinion. He's a former champ was on his way back with some wins before the suspension for roids. Does the UFC bring him in and if so, where does he really fit?
I'd say there are a lot more fighters than 1 that should be going to the UFC. What about Jorge Masvidal, Guto Inocente, Ovince St.Preux, Adlan Amagov, Jorge Santiago? As for Feijao though, the UFC will probably announce his signing in the next few months. I am guessing it's sending the wrong message when they sign someone that just got busted for roids and is still serving their suspension.
I think he'd get eaten up at 205 and a drop to 185 wouldn't help either . he won't make it at all in the UFC in my opinion.
Wow, have you seen Feijao fight? I agree he is a bit too small for 205, but he is one of the most dangerous fighters in the sport.
Feijao has been mantioned in quiet a few threads actually. Havent heard if hes goin to the ufc or not.
Small for 205? Dude, everyone in the MMA community sees him as a rather larger LHW. He had a clear size advantage over King Mo in their fight too. He's never gonna be able to make 185, so if he can't do much at 205 he's destined to be a gatekeeper. He's definitely a tough out for anyone though.
I hope they don't bring Feijao over. No one should be allowed into the UFC one fight after testing positive. Not to mention Feijao is hardly considered the contender he once was.
Sho nuff that guy is as big as thiago silva, i am guessing he is around 225-230 at fight time. Feijao is def top15 when he fights, the hendo fight could have gone either way (so did king mo fight) and hendo is top10. Plus the guy likes to bang, ufc like fighters like that he will be in ufc sho nuff.
The Hendo fight couldn't have gone either way because Hendo won by 3rd round TKO. But it wasn't like Hendo was dominating Feijao up until the point where he mollywhopped him with a power right. They were 1-1 going into the third round.
