News Thiago Santos Makes Quick Turnaround vs. Aleksandar Rakic on March 6th

[wufabufa]

I wouldn't consider a 4 month time frame as a fast turn around.

Same. I feel like anything over 7-8 weeks shouldn't be considered quick.

 

[Pilo]

That doesnt leave many options for Rumble, who I thought would get 1 of these 2 next.

Krylov, Walker, & Ankalaev are healthy & available yet.

Rumble? Is he really back, or isn't that just a rumour?

 

[Roljo]

I mean...He didn't take as much "Damage" persae, but this is still a fast turn around. I guess he's trying to wash the taste of getting Tapped Out out of his mouth as quick as he can so I guess I don't blame him lol.

He had Glover dead to rights twice, but failed to finish the Job, and as someone that got Hailed for taking it to one of the GOATS in Jon Jones on one Leg, you gotta wonder how the loss weighs on his mental seeing how he couldn't bounce back with a Win and prove those people right.

It's 4 months away, time to heal, rest and then 2 month camp, nothing lebenesque

 

[MirRocksFedor]

5 Months, yeah super short , lmao

 

[Mga223]

Any timeline of when Rumble can actually fight/meets the "in the pool" requirements though?


Yeah. Disappointing that they're rewarding that by giving him a fight against a guy in the position of Santos (bigger name/ranking coming early off a loss where he took decent damage)

Maybe jiri vs glover for TS if they pass glover up for izzy?

 

[Do The Evolution]

Not really a "quick turnaround" but, yeah, sure.

 

[Huligani]

That's not exactly a quick turnaround.

 

[Doug Money]

Rakic wins the same way he did against Smith

Santos can match Rackics los kicks

 

[Doug Money]

Good fight. Got Rackic. Knee surgeries are no joke and Santos apparently aint the same.

 

[Hitman]

Santos by KO !

 

[BonesWinckleJones]

hope the wheelchair will standby for santos post fight

 

[BEATDOWNS]

How is March a quick turnaround?

 

[Willek]

I wouldn't consider a 4 month time frame as a fast turn around.

Especially when it seems like dudes like Kevin Holland fight every month.

set to take place at march 6 personally i don t think thiago will crumble like smith did and take rakic s glass jaw off

I really don't like how TSantos' career is spanning out here. Fail at the title is one thing, but lose to a 40 year old grandpa and he bascially became fodder for dangerous upcoming prospects.

This one has tremendous athleticism btw.

 

[Raffen]

Love how the LHW division is constantly moving. LW divas could learn a thing or two.

You know damn well TS is on his 11th account.<45>

Thiago just had a bunch of work done on his knee didn't he? Doesn't seem like an ideal matchup.
