Will UFC pick up free agent Yaroslav Amosov

Definitely not on a loss. He will have to get a win or two.

Reinier de Ridder is the free agent they need to go after right now.

I think Chatri is claiming RDR is still under contract with them even though he fought for UAE Warriors. I think they're waiting for matching periods to expire for him and Saygid. I do think they'll sign RDR as they don't have many Dutch fighters.
 
it's the same thing to the UFC. you gotta be extraordinary for them to sign anyone from that area. they literally got rid of an undefeated 24 yr old because they didn't like the cut of his jib. they signed Evloev because he was undefeated and finishing everyone, then he came to UFC and became a backpack, i'm sure they regret that signing too. the casuals don't care about Amosov so why should UFC? other people in this thread have also pointed out reasons not to sign him and that's just the icing on the cake.

if he gets a bunch of tattoos, shaves his beard and dyes his hair and starts cutting 80s WWF promos on podcasts or starts training twitter THEN they'll be interested. trust me bro.
<20>

He's got tats and everything Sherbro.

Then again Vartanyan has tats and they haven't signed him.
 
Based on his post and saying the octogon, doesn't that mean he's probably signed?

I hope he does, hes absolutely fantastic
 
Thinking "what if this guy does well" is really stupid. No one cares about that. It's a fake concern.
Lol wut? Guy is coming off a bad loss, isn't an exiting or marketable fighter, and can't speak English.

There's no way Dana or the UFC want this guy doing well.
 
Hopefully, UFC giving us contender series bum fights on every card instead of signing top free agents like Amosov is a bad look

RDR and Amosov would both be a good addition to the roster.
 
Amosov shouldn't sign with the UFC. Basically all of the best welterweights in the world are outside of the UFC.

Ramazam Kuramagomedov
Jason Jackson
Yaroslav Amosov
Shamil Musaev
Magomed Umalatov

The UFC's welterweight rankings are filled with inferior older fighters that rank squat. The only one that might be as good as those 5 is Shavkat Rakhmonov, but he fights infrequently (only 6 fights in the last 5 years) and was beaten by Gadzhimurad Khiramagomedov twice.
All the best wws are outside UFC? Bwahahhah
 


Granted he lost the title in his last fight but there's obviously a lot of shit going on in Ukraine and I'm not sure what his training camp was like. He was 27-0 and Bellator champ prior to that.

UFC doesn't usually sign people coming off losses though so would they make an exception here or would he need to go and win a fight in LFA or something first?


Inclined to say no.

I would, all day long, but I think too many decisions of late will hamper him.

At least that's the noise coming from the UFC lately.

Fingers crossed, though, well worth signing imo.
 
They probably will, coming off a loss and no belt probably they can sign him for cheap, if he wants to, what was the deal with him and PFL/Bellator?
 
Amosov is as good as Islam Makhachev, respective to their division. Look at that record!

All that matters is the record and the level of comp they fought is irrelevant. I learned that from coming here.

With the tiny difference that Islam has been destroying people, and Amosov just got destroyed.
 
The UFC offered Vartanyan who’s better and doesn’t have a recent loss 12/12 and a contender series fight, no shot they offer Yaroslav coming off a loss anything near what bellato paid him
 
He was crushing Russian cans on the battlefield.
 
i didn't know neckbeard meant Muslim. to me it just means anyone from around Russia who has a beard. i'll be sure to update my internet lingo dictionary

LOL no worries. I take neckbeard to mean a basement-dwelling obese gamer-type. And I dunno, they all have that beard for religious reasons, and therefore it's cultural now as well. Heh heh and I won't defend Islam (the religion) either, but I'm just saying Yaroslav isn't like the Dagestani guys either culturally or religiously.

yeah that definition is the first one i known it as too. it's only on sherdog did i think it related to just any Eastern Euro with a beard because they end up looking all the same.

Lol, well I hadn't heard it on here (referring to caucus grappler types) until your post, but I'm only partially in-the-loop with the hip kids' slang these days.

P.S. Which Igor are you WARRING in your AV title?
