So let me get this straight

Morales has been training judo and wrestling since he was 7, he just has crazy power too. That's the fight I want to see along with Shavkat and Ilia.

1. Morales
2. Ilia @ LW
3. Shavkat

I disagree but for me i just would like an islam arman and an islam ilia fight before all of this. I hate that he's even at 70

Ilia beat Charles to become champ at 55 basically,
We were supposed to get Ilia Islam but instead we got Islam vs JDM at 70

Then we were supposed to get Arman vs Ilia but instead we got Arman vs Hooker. And now Ilia will fight Paddy?

Lmfaooo this is like the Tony v Khabib curse but more complicated

You got the timeline wrong.

Makhachev was scheduled to fight JDM, and THEN we got Topuria vs Oliveira for the LW title, fights just happened in a different order.

Arman vs Topuria was never a thing, and this hasnt changed, Pimblett was mentioned against Topuria for a while now.

I don't think he's ducking the young bucks, I think he genuinely thinks Kamaru is the best guy to fight there. I mean , Usman off the couch gave Khamzat (the current MW champ) his toughest fight ever. I don't blame him for wanting to fight Kamaru, I just want to see him vs Ilia and Arman first before any of these other fights.

Usman is riding an incredible 1 fight winning "streak", coming off 3 loses, one at MW and short notice, but still, he isnt the best skill wise out there, he is the best name.

I meant more recently. Burns isn't in any of these pictures today. Who is Islam's toughest fight at WW then? One of the young strikers?

So let's see Usman step in with one of them and show what he's got. They're the ones who are ahead of him in the rankings.

And he lost... Are we doing the Colby Covington style of arguing again and propping up people over "good losses"?

No we're not but there really isn't one solidified contender at WW right now so I don't get why Islam fighting Usman is the end of the fucking world. If Islam actually stays at WW I'm sure he'll fight (and beat) all those young guys anyway. Let him fight Usman and then maybe Shavkat while a guy like Morales, Prates or Garry emerges as the clear next. You think Islam is planning out a road map to avoid everyone? He literally just moved up and got the belt dude, relax.

What is not "solidified" about Morales and Garry? Can you please specify?

Usman is the guy who has 1 win since 2021 against #10 guy in the division. There's AT LEAST 3 guys ahead of him in line by merit. What's with the shilling?
 
It's the ol' superfight chase that we look for. UFC used to give it to alot more often in zuffa. Now with TKO unless your in the female division (who cares anymore) we don't get those pairings much anymore

Ilia has been ducking Arman for months now
 
AL-Tappo McSnappo said:
no, ilia is straight up ducking.
Tony and khabib agreed to fight,ilia is saying he doesn't want to fight Arman, he would rather leave the belt.
That is why i call bs on him being champion

He also talked similar shit at FW, about Max not deserving to fight him, then took the fight.

Hopefully it's just talk this time, too.

True, but in a similar way that Islam avoided Ilia (and Arman).

Can't really fault a guy for moving up.

Respect to Volkanovski for saying he wants to fight Movsar.

Yes, but Islam one made sense since he already gave an opportunity to the 145 champion twice, and was seeking his own second belt, and he would get nothing out of beating another 145 champion.

Did Ilia mess up by acting too much like a diva, or was this always the UFC’s plan?
