Replicating UFC 294 in Saudi Arabia

[andgonsil]

Early March is a good date to reschedule these fights:

Islam vs Charles

Chimaev vs Costa

Walker vs Ankalaev

you're going to give some posters PTSD with threads like these

You don't want Islam and Chimaev to use the magical halal scale?

 

[OldBoy91]

They should do beheadings in between rds.

Joe Rogan volunteered to make an exception and fly out to call the event after he heard people will be getting stoned at the arena.

 

[NoSmilez]

How dare you want them to host a fighting event during Ramadan!

 

[mjfan23]

UFC better not put up too much of a show the saudis might buy the whole organization

Walker & Ankalaev will be ready to fight a lot sooner than that, the other 2 fights you mentioned make sense for that card though.

 

[CroCopsLHK]

Charles vs Islam for 300?

 

[MEAN357]

No more fights in the middle east I've had enough of that bullshit







(The fight cards start at a weird time)

Yes, please make this happen so I can see more conspiracy theorists cry about the Muslim fighters.

No true SherDoggers will show up because there will be no beer or women.

I see a huge amount of respect for Muslim fighters in these forums. Dagestanis, Khamzat and Belal all huge respect. Anytime it isn't 100 percent respect without your chosen ones being pushed to the front of line, it's discriminatory.

That's not how life Works brother. Discriminatory or not you can't always get what you want out of life. And just because you didn't get what you want out of life does not mean it was discriminatory. People are so selfish with immediate need these days. Always looking for to blame prejudice for coming up short .Try going through life as a white guy these days without somebody or something or some-ism to blame it on LOL.

In before I get banned for truth. No one said equality was easy.

Everyone here respects most Muslim fighters. Except the one whose name escapes us... Can't remember.

Given how weigh-ins are conducted in Abu Dhabi, it is irresponsible to have title fights there. Instead, they should just fill up the cards with fun fights where nothing is on the line.

Islam Makhachev's weigh-in at UFC 280 in Abu Dhabi prompted the following comments from Dan Hardy. His first comment references Khabib's infamous weigh-in at UFC 254 in Abu Dhabi, when the same trick was done to the scale.

Here are other examples of fighters weighing in at abudhabiweight:

Saudi and Abu Dhabi should have a competition to see who can splurge more money.

I for one appreciate this. And lets see how the real fights would have gone.

 

[Fatback96]

I don’t want a replica of that garbage PPV. We saw a worthless undercard filled with fouls and weird decisions followed by 2 meaningless short notice fights as headliners that had major caveats.

Someone had to say it lol

 

[Sincere Guy]

Charles vs Islam is happening one way or another, probably in Abu Dhubious again because IVlam always needs happy scales smiling for him.

Costa vs Khamzat would be nice indeed.

Good stuff. We have a real WW (proved many times, like in pictures and videos above) fighting at LW and beating FW in his title defenses. And he is the #1 p4p, never fought any top 5 LWs short of Charles, that have way better resume than him just to remember. What a champ. I'm sure Abdulmanap didn't want things like that, this is disrespectful to his former master.
