Taisumov can't find an opponent, gets ducked by everyone at LW.

The guy is legit. But it is a Lose Lose fighting him. Going to be hard getting a top 15 opponent. Keep working your way up.

excuses don't matter ufc debut sickness or not a loss is a loss and he got completely dominated on the ground

If you think that a sickness won't affect you in a fight then you're wrong.
He has 5 TKO/KO's in a row, in the most stacked division in the UFC.

Show me one guy at LW that has a streak like this and can't get an opponent.

He has excellent wrestling and BJJ, by the way. No way he gets outwrestled at LW.

I wouldn't say Cowboy is a duck, either.
He probably already was in talks with Yancy Medeiros or something, that's why he declined.

Still, the real problem is a 29-year old possible title-contender not getting any fights in his prime.
 
Until he gets his visa issues straightened out, he's not going to get big fights.

You're making excuses again were you in his body when he was sick? Then how the fuck do you know how sick he was? If he was really sick he wouldn't even make it to the octagon you don't fight when you're really sick. Obviously he wasn't sick to the point that it would matter otherwise he's stupid as fuck and fights when he knows he's going to lose. He got manhandled for 3 rounds so how you're going to say he doesn't get outwrestled ? makes no fucking sense

he's been fighting bums over and over whoopdi doo he beat 5 NOBODIES by ko/tko in some european show. His last 5 opponents were all either making their UFC debuts or had 1 fight in the UFC like I said he hasn't proven anything except that he can crush cans.

Except when you just made it to the UFC and pulling out of a fight on short notice can possibly ruin your career and get the UFC to cut you or not give you fights again.
That's why he showed up and fought, despite being sick.
Taisumov would completely wreck Prazeres in a rematch, lol.

Felipe Silva was undefeated, Damir Hadzovic is coming off a win in the UFC and looked great in his last fight.
Also Hadzovic has a win over Ivan Musardo who has a win over Joe Duffy, who has a win over Conor Mcgregor as you're surely aware. Just an interesting fact.
Alan Patrick is coming off 2 wins inside the UFC, aswell.

To say he only fought nobodies is stupid, considering that the UFC is the reason why he has to fight these "nobodies".

He's 27-5, give him a ranked dude and then we can talk about how he looks against Top 10 competition, all we can do right now is speculate, or like you - vilify.
It isn

He's been fighting a lot of nobodies ever since his loss to Michel Trator Prazeres

There are plenty of guys for him to fight in the top 30

put him against Nik Lentz and see if his takedown defense improved

Wow bro.... he had the flu in that fight and has not been taken down once since. He is ranked in the top 15 already so why wouldn’t top ten be next? I’m assuming you are just a casual fan. He has 5 kos in a row and is already ranked, why take a step back?

That dude is blowing smoke out his ass, don’t bother.

It means he is still ethnic Chechen, and they alongside Dagestani’s have slim chances of getting a visa even as proven pro athletes

This guy is probably more of a behaved adult than 98% of the roster, but too dangerous to be let in the country

"I’m just waiting. Right after my (last) fight I asked for another one. But the UFC cannot find me an opponent, you know? All of the Top-10 are scared to fight me, so I’m waiting. "

Apparently Cerrone and Yancy Medeiros both declined a fight with Taisumov, who currently is not able to fight in the US because of Visa issues. He's on a 5-fight TKO/KO winstreak right now.

"I want to fight in Australia, they have an event there on February 10. Or March in London. They should be in Germany this year also. They have many events in Europe and Australia. I’ll take any show..... If I had a visa to America, I would fight there every Saturday I think. But now I have to wait because of the visa excuses. And just wait for European shows"


What to do about this? Who is someone that makes sense for Taisumov? Why can't the UFC get fighters to take a fight anymore?

Because almost everyone is worried about protecting a brand they're trying to build, and MMA fans have become so fucking fickle (basically like boxing fans) 1 or two loses and you're considered trash or a bum now. If we were still at a time when loses didn't matter (because fans were much cooler in that regard then) he would have no problem finding people still wanting & willing to test themselves against little known but beastly fighters like himself.

Lol, you know exactly why

For every Khabib and Rustam there are 10 Mairbek’s and Frodo Khasbulaev’s

Come on, wtf is this? From what I know only mma fighters who had problems with getting into US (at least from 2013 to today) - Khasbulaev, Zavurov (both because of terrorist connections, it seems), Taisumov and Khabilov. If you look at UFC roster - Amagov, Bibulatov, Tukhugov, Edilov - all Chechens but only Taisumov has visa problems there is some other guys, like Khamanaev (trained and fought in US), Beslan Isaev (trained in US), I think Askhabov brothers trained at Jackson-Wink, not sure but I think Abdulvakhabov trained in US.
Dagestani guys - I think there is more than 12 guys from Dagestan, perhaps more than 20 who was signed and fought for UFC and only Khabilov has visa issues. Well I've seen that rumor that Abubakar Nurmagomedov has visa issues with Brazil, but I've seen that according to other rumor he can't enter Belarus, like he is blacklisted or something. Dagestani Pahrudinov and Muduev (not sure if he is from Dagestan) was at tryouts (in America) for next TUF. Also, for example - Said Nurmagomedov trained at Jackson-Wink, Abubakar Nurmagomedov and Omar Nurmagomedov trains at AKA.
So you have WSOF/PFL with multiple guys from Caucasus, LFA has some guy from Caucasus on their card this Friday (and I think you can find other guys from Caucasus who was on their cards), I think Titan FC and CFFC (or what the name of it) has multiple guys from Caucasus on their card every year. So either you are misinformed or just a troll in my opinion.
To me it looks like that if you form a list with Dagestani and Chechens guys who fought or trained in US in the last 3 years it looks like that list will include like 100 or more fighters and only 4 guys who can't get in there.

I remembered in 2017 some ACB fighters faced visa problems when they decided to do event in US. But from what I understand - 1) it's not like they didn't receive their visas, they didn't receive them in time for event; 2) I think ACB fighters faced problems with visa in other countries, if I'm not mistaken in Austria and Germany, for example, so it might be some problems with ACB guy who works with papers/visas. And regarding American visa - Shlemenko said that in 2017 it took them more time to give him visa, like I think he said that he waited a month longer than in previous years.
