Volk vs Yair 2 for the Mexico card most likely

[Rapa]

Movsar should be next

 

[Luckyme]

The UFC is turning into a joke.

If I were Evloev, I wouldn't accept another fight. Sit out for the winner of Volk v. Yair or step in as backup in case one of the two pulls out.

 

[Skarsgard]

Probably punishing Evloev for his style. Wouldn't be the first time.

 

[World eater]

Yair 100% does not deserve that fight. It would be even more annoying if he won because that just sends a clear message to every fighter on the roster that inactivity, pulling out, ducking and being selective is the best way to maximise your opportunity.

Sadly, they already know this. O’malley being a recent example without even crossing into Colby territory.

Apparently Ali said Evloev won’t be fighting for the TS next. These fuckers are gonna give Yair a rematch on the Mexico card LOL. UFC has become such a joke.

This is seriously the most offended I've felt about a fight in as long as I can remember. I'm disgusted and makes me have resentment towards the UFC haha.

An incredibly uninteresting rematch with a totally undeserving challenger that blocks a fresh interesting matchup with the most deserving challenger (Evloev).

I'm not even dragging the fighters over this really. You only have a certain amount of time, mileage etc so clearly you need to make the most out of your career. It's more down to the pay structure and the politics/WWE shit of the matchmakers.

Edit: Colby is an absolute clown though

 

[JoeRowe]

Lol I'd rather see Pico fight for the title in his debut than see Yair get a rematch.

1-fight winning for Yair isn't enough but it's plenty good for KKF to get a shot over Gooch, who is way more proven than Pico?

Interesting standard fluidity sir

 

[RockyLockridge]

vs Evloev


Yair vs Diego Lopes

Jean Sillva vs someone else in the mix.

Volk vs evloev
Yair vs Murphy
Silva vs Lopes

Pico doesn't really make sense I agree but realistically nobody aside from Evloev deserves a title shot at FW.

That's just me as a fan of Pico wanting to see something exciting, I wouldn't argue his case for an instant title shot. A top 10 opponent like Arnold Allen, Aljamain Sterling or Josh Emmett is much more realistic to have him debut against.

 

[JustBleed69]

The fuck? Why would anyone want that?

He beat a guy making his UFC debut and he lost his last fight to Ortega who also recently got his ass beat by Lopes.

The fuck is happening .

 

[flektarn]

nobody wants that shit. yair isn't anything special.

 

[sdpdude9]

I hope not, first fight was barely competitive and Yair has only beaten battle worn Pitbull since then. Evloev or Murphy make way more sense. Or even Jean Silva.

 

[moosaev]

Only way I'd accept this if it leads to JDM Islam headling a PPV card in Australia. If it's legit and admittedly Ali lies whenever his mouth is open so I'd take it with more than a grain of salt Yair was always a chance of getting an entirely unwarranted title shot given how the UFC loves that Mexican market.

Why would Ali lie about his fighter not getting a TS?

 

[moosaev]

It's true but fans of this sport are week hearted, If it's a fighter they like they are okay with it, No one cares about legitimacy truly. Only when it's a fighter they don't like, only then does it matter.


Critics can't offer a better fight. but that's not critics fault though, you give umar a shot he doesn't deserve and make yan fight figgy for no reason and this is what you're left with. Give figgy the shot, have umar fight song and you could have had 2 fresh match ups. But like my above point, Legitimacy only matters when it's a fighter you dont want to see get a title shot.

UFC match made themselves into a corner with the BW division forcing this stupid rematch

You’d have to be a retard to watch Umar’s performance against Merab, then watch Figgy’s performance against Corey and still think Umar shouldn’t have gotten the shot LOL. The priority should be on fresh and intriguing matchups, Umar was always the most intriguing matchup for Merab. And that showed in the fight.

You'd have to be a retard to use hindsight to determine that.

you'd also have to be retarded to be glad the division is in it's current state. never said don't give umar a shot, umar should be fighting Merab NOW, rather than before.

 

[ArtardFiesta]

yair doesn't deserve the title shot. yair also didn't show up to their first match. he is 1 or 2 fights away from the title. he should be fighting lopes on the mexico card. let volk fight mosavor in nz or oz

 

[TimeToTrain]

Yair is better off being a gate keeper

 

[AMAZINGUFC]

 

[Dark Lord]

It's the price for being a boring fighter, who doesn't fight much and doesn't finish or knock anyone out, with no charisma. He should never fight for the belt, then go to the PFL, retire, forgotten.

Because Mexico.

And Mexicans.

And Mexican fucking whatever day.

Yair is Mexican.
