Can't wait bruv. First round of the Paint shoop contest too

 

[The Siege]

No incentive for Makh to defend against Ilia unless he racks up defenses to pass Volk or Max on the FW GOAT list.

No interest either even though I enjoy Ilia and Islam's fight styles. The value is not there like Islam vs Volk.

Maybe he is trying to drum up heat to draw Islam into taking the fight, which I doubt Islam will. He has his eyes set on WW after beating Arman.

If Max wins I can see the UFC making that fight. He is more of a prestigious win than Ilia by a mile (and better than Volk IMO) because he has a win over a top 5 LW.

Ilia bless

Of course Islam will accept the challenge, once he loves fighting undersized opponents

Video will not play unless I sign in.

But I cannot sign in. It thinks that I am a bot.

No bot could talk as much shit as I do.



Anyways, what I’m most interested in is a video of Islam’s response when being told about this. Bud is hilarious.

 

[DudeBroMMA]

This double champ thing is so fuckin annoying. Unless it's a short notice/saving a card type situation, a champion should have to defend his belt a couple of times before the UFC decides to put 2 divisions on hold.

The division has some fresh faces that havent had title shots before: Lopes, Evloev, Allen, Sterling

Defend the title 3+ times before talking about moving up

If ilia beats Max, I can't imagine any current top FW beating him. Think it will take the emergence of a new fighter.

Maybe volk in a rematch but I certainly wouldn't bet on him.

Still has a lot of work to do though with Lopez and the winner of Evloev/sterling and volk rematch. I hope he doesn't take another 10 months between defenses

Im fuckin seriously hyped for this weekend sir.

You ready for Max's funeral?

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Max is gonna die.

There's no way in hell Ilia submits Islam...
