thoughts on IFW 2025 so far?

[RockyLockridge]

Illa vs Charles [act surprised]
Pantoja vs Kara-France
Royval vs Kape
Kopolov vs Costa
Hermanson vs Robocop
Diniz vs Tafa
Arujao vs Cortez



Not bad... but maybe missing a few big name fights for a IFW card.

Any additions you'd like to see?

My wish list

Jiri vs Ulberg
Pico vs Allen
Lopes vs Silva
Imavov vs Boralho

It does need a few more fights. Allen already has a fight scheduled IIRC. Maybe we can get Fluffy on there

It just seems weird to me how so many fights are unannounced until last moment

Charles as a main event will always get me to tune in

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Top 3 Apex Fight Night card this year... so far

 

[CroCopsLHK]

It's just a bit too scrambled and late. At least Charles and Ilir knew they'd be there but they weren't even sure they'd fight each other

KKF vs Pantoja will be severely overlooked

 

[Tweak896]

NGL, pretty garbage. Maybe if they had both Topuria/Olivera and JDM/Islam same card it would be biggest of year. But right now looks like average monthly PPV.

2025 - Very easily could be the best MMA year,

I know its hard without any American champions, but that is MUCH BETTER in terms of "quality" fights.

If we end the year with Tom vs Gane for the belt, we all win.

Not great especially for international fight week. Needs at least two more main card worthy fights.

 

[WoozyFailGuy]

Lot of small dudes, needs Shamil Gaziev vs another fat guy and two more fat guys, at least.

Quick turn around is possible though.

I just want to see a bunch of 6'4"+ guys swangin and bangin but HW is

 

[JoeRowe]

Jailton vs Volkov would make it legit

 

[moosaev]

Imagine if ilia or Charles get injured lool.

 

[Mmmmmmma1234]

It's a good PPV and a bad IFW.

i expect something like hooker vs gaethje or something on the card as a potential fill it, it is the IFW card, so they will probably pull out the stops and add ta top 10 lw fight

They already have Dariush/Moicano, guarantee that they’re rolling with that as the break glass emergency. This time they’ll give it to Dariush.

This time they’ll give it to Dariush.

I'd not mind that too much.
