Umar Nurmagomedov

Bautista (and the rest of the top 15 aside from Cory) have been ducking Umar for a reason.

And this "nobody" that Umar is fighting this weekend probably beats Bautista as well.

Sure, Umar facing Bautista would be better or Javid Basharat, Pedro Munhoz, Cory Sandhagen, just about anyone really. Bautista would be crowned hard too.

Umar and Javid probably won't fight any time soon considering they train together.

Basharat is on the same card as him, too. They should have done zahabi vs. Bezkat, and umar vs. Basharat. Both fights would have been a lot more interesting than what we're getting.

Javid and Umar train together very little. When Umar fights in Vegas he goes to XTreme Couture but his mother gym is Eagles MMA and stateside its AKA. Them not fighting is a fucking reach but I just meant it as an example, Javid is one of about a dozen opponents that make sense for Umar. Bekzat just doesn't.

Umar has pulled out of 5 separate fights.

He was booked with one of the biggest names in the division - a ranked guy who's headlined cards. Umar cancelled.

The UFC isn't sending him another big name after that, he's going to have to show up a few times.
 
The nobody he is facing will probably be top 10 in 2 years.
I haven't seen his fights, but his name tell me he will be ranked.
Bekzat Almakhan
If his name was Bekzat Almakhanov I would already consider him champion material.

In the UFC, he’s only pulled out on one other occasion aside from Cory. That was against Morozov, who he proceeded to beat next fight.

Fight against Wood was cancelled cuz of COVID and Abdulmanap death.

any word on why the jack shore fight didnt happen? Shore said it was issues on Umar's side. Around 4:40, he's asked why umar pulled out. Shore responded "we got one text just saying Umar is out, he can't make it to London"

Ya that was utter BS. It was UFC that cancelled the fight without warning and booked Shore against Valiev.

Umar was booked soon after.

Got an announcement from the UFC to back that? or just from umar's camp? Most announcements cite umar as being unable to make it. Even Javier mendez said there was "miscomunication", which again, suggests it was miscommunication on umar's side of things.

No though? Umar was pulled from the Shore fight, and then fought Kelleher even sooner than the booked date, so clearly there wasn't a problem on his side, and said he was confused as to why the fight was canceled. General consensus seems to be the UFC rethinking 2 undefeated prospects fighting before getting more name. And even counting that, isn't that still 4?

That would have been much better, though Basharat would have gotten murdered all the same with that performance. At least Umar would have gained more from it.
 
Damn, the Kazakh was no joke . Umar definitely left that one feeling he needed to brush up one or two things and quit long layoffs and fight even it’s not top 10.
 
The exact number of pullouts don't matter in the grand scheme of things. Fact of the matter is those Abdulmanap/Abdelaziz fighters pull out whenever they see fit, they only fight on their own exact terms and in the best possible conditions for themselves. We saw the performance of Islam when he couldn't prepare the way he wanted to. It was still a stellar performance no doubt, but it was very close with many people, me excluded, giving it to Volk. They always have a varied, extensive list of excuses for performances and or pullouts.

And as it is expected with their hypocrisy, that is appearent in almost all of their conduct, they go on about crying how everybody is ducking them.
Also, gentle reminder that multiple members of that group popped for illegal substances.

Whenever a Nurmagomedov loses, it's a good day for MMA as a sport. Fuck them.
