Cub has lost 4 straight.
He either doesn’t give a shit or he’s way past it.
Gracie probably subs him, but I would love to see Cub win by KO/TKO, and then retire.
He lost to Ortega and Edgar, two truly world class guys. There are not many featherweights in the world over the course of all generations of MMA that will fight those guys back to back and win both.
Moicano is ranked a tough loss, but his last is a split decision against Burgos.
Cub is still a solid 10-15 fighter who is going to lose to the truly elite.
He fought in february this year and is now fighting again. Hes 100% healthy.How is he at his peak? He has fought once in 3 years. Against ALEX CACERES
UFC posted this earlier (it's co main by the way is this fight).
Man what a horrible stoppage lol.

Not usually one for a pre card hot take thread however I think this is justified.
Gracie has average offensive wrestling and his TDs from clinch are meh. Obviously he is lightyears on the ground and could sub Cub relatively easily if it gets there... Me no think it will.
Cub has very diverse striking so as long as he keeps this standing he could finish Gracie, although probably wins a wide decision instead - cause if he rocks him I doubt he follows him down.
Also fuck the UFC if this isn't the main event.
