UFC on ABC 5 is absolutely stacked.

Great write up TS.

One of those cards that might not have superstar names but has superstar fights.
 
TS wrote every one of these synopses in the exact voice of Dana White’s “if you don’t know, now you know” series on Twitter. Those videos always have a way of making me interested in shows I probably otherwise wouldn’t care that much about, and TS did the same with this post, so thank you!
 
Thanks for drumming up some hype for this! I'm mighty stoked for it.

I think July 1st is actually another sneaky good card, with a lot of potential prospect breakouts: Abus fast tracking, Ismagulov vs Grant Dawson, the return of undefeated ko artist Michael Morales, and Rinat vs FKL.

If that wasn't enough, there's also robocop slayer Brunno Fereira and Benoit St Denis.

I'll be astonished if this one hangs together come July lol
 
No!

Ur doing it wrong

Ufc is dying brah. Dana white is a liar. Fighters get paid close to nothing.
 
This is exactly how I like my essays written. Each line I properly double spaced. Good use of pictures to reinforce your arguments. 92/100 because you didn't use a double space after each period. I wouldn't be able to apply bonus points in this circumstance. I could only do that if you were an Ese who wrote this Essay however you're from Ukraine and not Mexico.

I always enjoy reading your analysis sir.

Looks like a good card, and I hope Ricci and Ribas win.

I also would love to see Topuria win this one, it's by far his biggest test.
I think Emmett is a bit of a one trick pony tbh.
He has decent wrestling but he doesn't want to mess with Topuria on the floor.

Yeah I'm actually a bit surprised tbh that so many are picking Emmett over Topuria. Josh has that absurd power that could shut the lights out at any moment, but I think this fight will be Topuria's coming out party. I think he styles on Josh and finishes him.

The power is something to be worried about tbh brother, but as long as Topuria stays aware at all times he should win.

I can't recall too many people styling on Emmett to be honest.
Although Topuria does have that skill to do so, I guess we'll have to see how it plays out sir ;)

He is a hell of a grappler with heavier hands than anyone Sterling has ever fought. Would be an amazing challenge.

Yeah for Sterling lol.

I mean, I was just saying since it'd be really, really tough fight for Sterling up a weight class lol.

It'd be an interesting fight, but I'd favour Topuria by a fair bit. And I rate Sterling highly than most too. Think he's one of the most underated guys out there, a fight between him and Cejudo was for me arguably the most overated vs most underated.

It is the best card next month and by a huge margin. I didn't expect it myself until I went through all the cards lol. Bellator has a card next month that has three great fights on it too, possibly the second best card next month.

I'm pumped for Emmet and Topuria!

The rest of the card is OK. The lackluster co-main hurts it.
I'll watch the fights because I love watching fights, as always, but no, this card does not stand out as special.

Well, that fight is a banger for sure, and many of the fights on this card is really, just doesn't have the big names.

Hard to argue with lackluster co-main since it's Ribas vs Maycee lol, I mean is it even a co-main, I don't know, but hell, they just had Dern-Hill main event, and this is a better WMMAA fight.

I do think this is a special card. This card is stacked from top to bottom. Rare is a card like that, but it's subjective.
 
After reading your hype job thread I am a bit more interested TS also more Ribas would create even more excitement

That is very true, people don't usually just dominate Emmett. I just think at this stage of his career, he's going to be too slow. I think we see a lot of in and out combos from Ilia, with a lot of work to the body to slow Josh down even further.

The one thing that concerns me is Topuria's gas tank, and we know Josh carries his power the whole way through. Either way, I'm super excited for this one.
