I missed this- but got Damb I know you confident in this result… I feel like chandler is gonna smoke him

That’s assuming chandler is focused and still wants to actually win. Not sure what his pay structure is like but if he’s hungry I feel like he’s gonna get the knockout

No hate....

but have you seen Chandler box? LOL dude is a punching bag and take 0 responsibility defensively

Conor probably still got the best boxing in the UFC even a rusty conor's boxing is levels above chandler...

He'll be shooting at some point believe that.

With that said chandler got bombs. If he can withstand and absorb he can put conor out regardless

If this was years ago when conor was active I would say conor all the way

Whether he wrestles or not- I don’t know if he will. He should but I kind of doubt it, only out of desperation probably

 

[steevoo1]

I would say absolutely yes yes yes to this post and agree… if this was pre 2017… but it’s 2024. And he hasn’t fought for a while

And was barely fighting anyway

And now coming off that severe injury

I have extreme doubts of the shape conor is in now. Sport waits for no one

Plus the 170 thing. Idk

That's fair. I do think the 170 helps Conor. The man was on his cycle the last year so while I do expect Conor to still be washed. He may not be all the way there after the juice.

170 imo helps him with the roids he was on so he doesn’t have to cut to 155

Idk if it helps his fight ability tho. He will be slower, not as flexible and maybe gas quicker

If he does win we’re all ****ed. He’s gonna get a title shot somewhere and hold up a division

Been calling for costa vs periera but this is a good one too

Thats why I love this fight, Chandler so game....perfect dance partner for a banger.

Alot of doods give chandler slack for his losses, but I could never hate on the guy the way he fights.

Chandler got personality too, I can see this PPV doing 1+ mill

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Predictable

 

[spiderjericho]

Feels like Cannonier hasn’t fought in forever. Was Strickland his last fight? Or was it Vettori?

 

[xbiker47]

Really hope Tom can go heel and push for the Jones fight more, the fans are behind him.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Terrance McKinney fighting on Saturday... bruv has 21 fights and every single one has ended in a finish. That is truly insane work

This man competed in a grappling match with Sydney Outlaw in January... surprisingly enough.... he was submitted

I was just listening to Stipe on the Jaxxson pod and he said they are now looking at a fight with Jones in November. So I really doubt Tom will ever fight JJ and think Bones likely retires after if the Stipe fight does happen. As much as I'd like to see the Tom/Jones fight at this point it just doesn't appear in the cards.

 

[xbiker47]

Tom needs to smoke Blaydes and immediately call out Jones. Tell him he’s ducking and tell him he will be the back up fighter at MSG ready and waiting. Even say if he needs to smoke Alex in November to prove he’s got next he will. Just has to go for it and force the fight.

 

[mr z]

Jones should be stripped and Aspinal/Blaydes should be for undisputed. Stipe hasn’t fought in 4 years.

I think Chandler KO's Conor as well

I honestly hate stipe

Nobody cares about him and the ufc owes him nothing

Literally irrelevant but somehow is attached at the hip to being matched up with the goat of the sport who has limited fights and time

statistically isn't he the best HW ever? Like most defenses or some ish..

Yeah I think so. But I honestly don’t think the mma community gives a flying f about that

Nor is there even a small contingency begging for him to come back let alone fight Jones

You can have your great achievements but that’s in the past. We’re in a new era now way beyond his

Not to mention he lost his last fight real real badly which was like 3 years ago

I strongly disagree because with folks like Bones and Conor anything is possible. Hell if Suga beats Merab (if the fight does happen this fall) he could be calling his shot again for either Ilia or something else crazy.

As much as I don't like the UFC matchmaking at times they still put on high level fights we are generally entertained by.

But yes Stipe will be 42 if the Jones fight happens later this year and I'm fully expecting him to go out sad with Jones either easily subbing him or kicking him into oblivion.

I don’t get what you’re disagreeing with. My stipe slander?

Conor has nothing to do with this, he’s obviously in his own tier

I clearly stated the mma fans give zero dambs about stipe

They clearly still care about conor

 

[Beans]

Yeah the obvious fight would have been Francis.. but with that ship sailing, Stipe the only other BIG name/Fight.. think about it jones can lay claim to beating the statistical greatest ever.

No that isn’t a big fight because of stipe and he isn’t the only big name or fight

That’s a big fight because of Jones

Jones vs Tom will sell out an England show and arena in seconds and do more numbers than stipe

Jones vs Alex would do more numbers than stipe
