I feel like I have blue balls now

 

[Reign009]

This is a good match up.

Win or lose, I hope Moicano starts getting some respect. I liked his post fight interview after he beat Alex Hernandez.

Respect to both guys.

 

[Herwald]

Yes! Awesome fight!

Ew. Fk Dana for not making RDA/Islam happen or even RDA/Tony.

 

[svmr_db]

Lol not surprised at all that RDA vs Islam didn't materialize, RDA vs Moicano should be fun though

 

[usernamee]

RDA vs Moicano is more interesting to me

wonder if Moicano will end up getting grapplefucked here though ironically enough

 

[LoveMyMMA]

And now you're gonna have goofs all over social media claiming Islam bailed lol...



This was entirely Dana & Shelby's doing. They won't wanna risk losing Islam fighting in Abu Dhabi later this year for the title. UFC wants that arab money!

Moicano is good but how is any unranked fighter not named Nate Diaz on a PPV co-main?

 

[DS66]

It's actually a decent fight. However it's such a step down in intrigue and excitement than Fiziev/RDA, so its difficult to be too excited. Should be a good scrap though.

Man RDA can't catch a break. When's the last time a fight of his went through as planned with the original opponent on the original booked date.

Oh please, Islam responded without thinking and then his team talked him away from it as they have a title shot secured. Duck

 

[eighterumg5]

This is much better for RDA

You "hate" RDA? He said he would take it at 165 or 170, lol.

Moicano likes em big checks guys, now he'll get his opportunity. He's pretty good too

 

[Linelo]

Good on them for getting a replacement done but that is not enough for a PPV co-main.

Props to both guys for accepting this fight. This is a more appropriate matchup for a 37 year old fighter at the lower weight classes and I'm glad RDA stays on the card as he isn't getting any younger and I want to see him fight more often before he retires.

It made no sense for Islam to take that fight. He's got a title shot in hand. I didn't think it would happen and he rightfully didn't end up taking it for whatever reason as he's earned his shot. Why risk it?

War RDA. War Moicano.

Nah I don't hate RDA. He's spreading fake news about Islam bailing. It's obviously the UFC that wasn't willing to make the fight happen. Islam was more than ready to step in at 170lb.
