I mean he was the co-main his last time out and had an impressive win there, so this seems off to me. Perhaps he said something about Dana's mom
 
Yeah, that don't make no sense at all, especially considering how fun he is to watch.

Maybe TS has a point...

He got a performance bonus his last fight too.
 
Even Josh Thomson and John McCarthy joked that Daukaus must’ve had an affair with one of Dana’s side pieces.
 
He's fighting Roman Dolidze, one of the best up-and-coming stalemate artists in the UFC. If he's not careful, he'll have sweet love made to his legs for 15 minutes.
 
its as if someone just started watching ufc. this is nothing new
 
He had one win in the UFC three fights before his co-main fight, NC in the one before and lost the one before that so one could also wonder why he got a co-main fight against Jamie Pickett of all people. I like Kyle he's entertaining but who cares?
 
For all we know fighters might be getting card placement as part of their bout agreements or their promotional contracts with the UFC. Or the UFC is doing it to play up to whatever country they are fighting in (ie putting Brazilians on the main card in Brazil).

Does it even matter? You can watch a full event from start to finish on Sony6 in India but might need 3 different internet/TV platforms to watch it in America. Breaking the card up into early-prelims, prelims and main card is solely for milking the American audience out of more money. Who cares if you are the 4th fight or the 9th during the event?

Too much card bias, fans think being in the main card makes you more significant than being on the prelims. Like, is Brad Pitt less significant of an actor when he takes on a smaller supporting role in a movie instead of being the main character? If you're good at what you do, fighters included, it won't matter what your billing is.

This is why. Because Dolidze may make it a really dull fight

Bastards!
 
I've seen interviews with him on how he says acquaintances from his school days would be buddybuddy with him and his brother because they are now an MMA fighter. He seems very bitter and arrogant about this.
But imo it's natural for people to do that. Fans are no different, they don't know of you until you make it big, which is reasonable. Just an overall bad perspective from Kyle.
 
JP Buys has some pull with Dana and Kyle got matched against the guy in his crosshairs.

I don't remember what country, but somebody on these forums told me they get UFC events for free on some basic TV channel.

You mean the same mom that shits on him and exposes him in multiple articles/interviews and wrote a whole book about why he's the worst person in the world? Yeah, Dana would jump to defend... Its crazy how her videos just keep getting taken down online right away

I have a subscription to ESPN+ and never have to switch to anything else to watch any part of a UFC event. It doesn't work that way for you?
