This event I swear. We're all just waiting on khamzat to pull out next.

Some banger fights dropped outta this one already

Damn, should be a fairly easy fight for Rinat.

Ruziboev needs to go back up and stay at middleweight

Dropping to a weight class he historically struggled in was just so dumb...

It's like he was working overtime with his team for ways to derail himself.

Rowe fricken stinks.

Put this on the early early prelims.

Respect for cojones to enter on short notice on foreign territory against champ material.
Maybe I am biased around Rinat... but I think only few fighters can threaten him in this division.

Rowe is still employed?

 

[JustOnce]

Fight NOBODY wants to see.

I know right.

He looked really promising at middleweight. He historically struggled at Welter on the regional scene. Wtf is he and his team thinking?

If he didn’t learn that from the Buckley fight, he ain’t ever learning.

Sometimes a size/reach advantage isn’t worth killing yourself to make weight, but some guys feel they need the advantage to make their game work, even if they lose so much strength/speed/cardio in the process.

Would be a weird replacement and Rinat would run through him.
