Hot Take The Figgy we knew is no more

[Nabs]

As the title states, the guy who was starching mufukas left & right at 125 is no more.

This "new" guy is gun shy AF, stays gassing, and has absolutely no killer instinct. He's gonna be kept in the org just to be a gatekeeper like Magny.

 

[WildShrimper]

Went from walking people down with his hands down to backpedalling for 15 minutes. Father time stays undefeated

 

[Black0ut]

Ya I said to myself well watching “Umar can literally do whatever he wants in this fight”

Then was kinda disappointed when Umar wasn’t willing to put the pedal down.

 

[Leonard Haid]

He's not the psycho killer anymore. He seems to have become a gentle soul. Sometimes evolution as a human being means devolution as a fighter.

 

[ernestventures]

It's weight cutting championship

 

[Viking Power]

Definitely the smaller guy tonight and doesn’t have the eye of the tiger anymore. It’s a shame.

 

[oldschoolmmafan]

The eyes never lie Chico, he didn't want to be there.

 

[Trabaho]

yeah his prime expired, he's hanging on

 

[BigGucciSosa]

He's damn near 40 and a non heavyweight, basically done.

 

[SamuraiBro]

He squeezed a few more good years out, but it’s pretty much over for him now.

 

[FilipEmoFights]

I blame weight bully Sandhagen

 

[Haliacmon]

he´s 38, many fighters that age at the smaller weight divisions are almost done

 

[The_Renaissance]

Time isn't kind at the lower weights, but yeah he looks several paces slower and less aggressive - time to retire IMO. Great career.

 

[GolovKing]

He's a little undersized for bw and the way he fights it doesn't really work to be the smaller guy. I kinda knew from the beginning that while he was having success with guys like Garbrandt and Marlon Vera at bw, once they started matching him up with current elite guys he was gonna have trouble competing.

He's too small for 135.
