I'd love to see Poatan v.s Khamzat Chimaev.

  • Poatan vs. Khamzat Chimaev
  • Jon Jones vs. Poatan
  • Shavkat Rakhmonov vs. Islam Makhachev
If there's a God, those three have to happen.

The other two make no sense.

In this order

Jon Jones vs. Poatan

Poatan vs. Khamzat Chimaev

Islam Makhachev vs. Ilia Topuria
Shavkat Rakhmonov vs. Islam Makhachev​

Kayla Harrison vs. Amanda Nunes​


 
This dog has more fight than Jones

 
Makhachev vs Topuria is the most intriguing fight, but it just makes zero sense to make it any time soon. Plenty of deserving contenders in both lightweight & welterweight to keep both champions busy, that fight can't be made for a long time.
 
Frankly, the amount of Sherbros that want to watch Chimaev dry-hump Alex is concerning. It has to be one of the least exciting matchups possible. What the fuck is there to wonder about? It's like wondering if Merab is going to outwork his opponent.

If the same Jon shows up to fight AP that fought Stipe Miocic? That's a 50/50 fight any day.

I want to see Alex test Jon's chin, the guy obviously has concrete hands when he's on point. Jon would and should be the favourite, but he blew his wad in the first round trying to put a cripple away without success and visibly slowed the second round onwards. He didn't like getting tagged by a real HW and le'ts not forget he's blessed with those skinny little getaway sticks. Jon keeps a wide stance, but Alex likes his calf kicks. If Jon thinks AP's the same cakewalk Stipe is, that's just asking for trouble.

It's an intriguing fight, but AP's a far easier opponent than Tom was for Jon, and everyone knows that.

Temu-Makhachev just put things into perspective for Ilia real fast. I don't think ANYONE should be talking about Topuria fighting Islam until he can prove he can at least get by Arman first. I hate fighters who talk about fighting specific guys at the weightclass above them while ignoring the existence of the rest of that division... and everyone pretending Ilia belongs at 170lbs is a certfied idiot.
 
Kayla Harrison vs. Amanda Nunes doesn't make sense?
Right and instead of going through it again, let me just suggest again that when any poll is created that has anything to do with wmma, make the last choice something like:
"scrap the whole damn thing and give the fans a real win for once."

And then you'd see it for yourself.
 
Interesting as much hate as Jones receives he still manages to be the most desired to see fight after all of these years and after retirement. No fighter will ever again have this much love and hate this long with a highlight reel of carnage. Crazy
 
Voted Shavkat vs Islam because to me is the most intriguing one. It makes sense for the division, it's a good clash of styles.

Other ones:
Kayla vs. Nunes - WMMA, don't care that much.
Poatan vs. Khamzat - not even in the same category, which means jamming one belt and I see a Khamzat wrestling fest.
Poatan vs. Jones - Jones is retired and should stay so, no need to bring drama again. And Jones via wrestling easy.
Ilia vs. Islam - Plenty of more interesting fights for Islam to have in his weigth than a one off with a diva like Topuria. Plus I think Islam would wrestlefuck him easily.
 
Shavkat vs Islam is the only one that could be competitive.

Jones vs Periera would be jones mauling pereira quickly

Islam vs topuria would be Islam grinding on topuria for the whole fight.

Periera vs khamzat would be Khamzat grinding on poatan for the while fight.
 
Shavkat vs Islam is the only one I'm interested in here. Don't care to see Khamzat or Jones fight again. Ilia needs to stay at 155, especially with the interim belt being made. Don't care about Amanda.
