I think that UFC is not good at building the hype around fighters organically. There are countless extremely good fighters that are unranked and fighting in undercards that casuals don‘t hear about. Instead it seems like UFC is putting all efforts on recycling dying big names over and over, or building up a couple of selected hypetrains like Paddy or O‘Malley.
Too many times do great fights get buried somewhere beforr some shitty WMMA main event.
Another phenomenon I think is UFC‘s way of aggregating too many great fights on one card, while having a huge deal of fluffer cards nobody GAF about. That‘s just bad planning IMO.
i know it was kinda funny, I remember telling people on here Gordon is better than Paddy, but ppl thought Gordon was an absolute tomato can for Paddy. Then when Paddy loses to Gordon, it makes Paddy look even worse when Gordon can be a tough fight for someone like Paddy.
I wish him the best though, only guy that is representing Sherbros on UFC right now. I don't think he comes on here anymore, or at least that I've seen. I thought Green was going to be a tough fight for him. I thought he was going to kick away, I wasn't surprised at all by that because that was the only way to fight someone like Green with what Paddy brings to the table, but didn't think Green was going to panic like the way he did.
Problem is, UFC just isn't signing the best fighters. I don't blame them though. If you pick 10 random elite Dagestan/Russian fighters in their regional orgs, they might as well win more than not if it's against UFC top 10 in any weight classes. And it's not just Dagestan/Russian I guess. That kid that just beat Tai in OneFC is easily top 10 material too.
Yeah I did notice they stacked to the kingdom come some recent events, but UFC 313.....lol. Hopefully it gets more fights.
Some WMMA main events are dreadful for sure lol, it's not they don't care lol, but zhang vs tatiana is as good as it gets. Also, would like to see that girl from PFL vs Grasso or Shev.
There aren't that many good WMMA fights left too. Erin looked promising, but I think we've seen all she has really.
