What's the deal with this dude? Hasn't fought since Oct and currently has no fights scheduled through UFC 300 in April. So, he's at least 6 months between fights. I get the Ramadan layoff, but knowing that was coming why didn't he schedule a fight prior? He could easily have fought in Feb. He didn't even go a full round in his last fight againsr Volk, and Volk himself is fighting in Feb after getting KOed. Dude has only 2 defenses in 18 months. Get off the dang couch and fight. He ain't hurt as far as I know, so what's the deal?

He's a champ just knocked volk the fuck out giving mcgregor fans and khabib haters a heart attack, now he's probably with his wife enjoying life as a hero in dagestan with his bro khabib

he is waiting for the winner of belal and leon

he really should be fighitn gaethe, but it looks like the winner of gaethje vs holloway and the winner of olives vs arman will fight for the interim fight while islam fights belal/leon in the UAE in oct
 
What did you expect, he’s literally Khabib 2.0

Ali mentioned in an interview that he wanted to fight at 299 but Dana couldn't make it happen.
 
You want to give Gaethje a 3rd title shot, in 6 fights? Dude got smoked by Khabib in his shot, beats Chandler, get smoked in his 2nd title shot by Charles, knocks out Poirier (who also got smoked in his 2 title fights) and now he should get another one?

How shit is LW when you have to give the same dude a title shot 3 times in 6 fights.

Thanks for telling me you haven't watched any of those fights without saying it.
 
Islam isn’t fighting the winner of Leon/Belal unless Leon wins

Belal is spending another fight camp training with Team Khabib and gets owned by Islam in training. He ain’t taking that fight.

Dunno, they also claim he hasn't fought anyone, but also needs to rematch guys he aready finished or 30-27'd.

LW is weird with contenders who all beat each other, so since nobody stands out, everyone is demanding a title shot after every ranked win.
