Isn't blachowicz vs glover in September or something? I'm guessing the winner will only fight again next year. Jiri cannot sit out till then imo. Jiri vs rakic?
 
Well Juri was told he gets the winner. That is championship money.

Why risk it? Especially with questionable defense? Financially and health wise he should wait. Keep training.........defense.
 
Yeah I'm confused too. Jiri and Felder made it seem like he gets the Jan / Glover winner
 
I guess Dana was asked earlier in the week if tonight's main event would serve as a title shot eliminator of sorts, and he answered yes. A little odd to me, because if Dom had won, that'd be his 3rd title fight in 4 fights - not sure if that's warranted. But no matter.....

I suppose if Jiri wants to wait to fight the winner of Glover/Jan, the opportunity is there for him. I'd like to see him fight before then anyway, even if it's "risky". He's too fun to watch to have him sit out say 9+ months.
 
Jiri and Rakic are both at the doorstep of a title shot, I kind of don’t want them to fight before that though in case one of them does grab the belt
 
Dana already said that the winner of Jiri v Reyes gets the next title shot. So Jiri's next fight is either Jan or Glover

Rakic ducked Jiri and later said that he will not fight Jiri until its title fight.....

 
If Jiri is wants to wait, he’s earned his shot in my eyes. If not, Rakic fight makes since. If he waits, do Rakic vs. Ankalaev for next shot after Jiri. But no way should Rakic leapfrog Jiri, he’s coming off some seriously unimpressive performances.
 
Jiri earned his shot at the Glover vs Jan winner
 
Rakic is higher ranked and has more ufc wins.
He deserves next title shot
His last two fights were really boring decisions though, and the fight before that he lost
How is Dana going to sell Jan vs. Rakic or Glover vs. Rakic?
 
rakic has nowere to run now if he wants a title shoot
Jiri will most likely give him chance to fight if there will be offer from UFC, but do Rakič deserve this chance after these bullshit talks and disrespects on Jiri ?

I'd say he probably can sit out until then if he knows he's got a title shot plus would give the option of his being a potential stand in should Jan or Glover drop out. Jan/Jiri could be a main event in Poland as well I'd guess so the UFC could maybe wait on that until they can run events there?

If Jan/Glover arent ready to fight in early 2022 then maybe interim title shot against Rakic?

But seriously guys, most casuals would have forgotten by next year. You can't reward inactivity like that. What if Ankalaev goes on a tear and surpasses his prowess, then what? Does Ankalaev get ignored and forced to wait? Jiri vs rakic for Ankalaev for me. None of this bullshit bruh.
