It's funny as of recent I never even saw your channel before but recently a lot of your videos are popping up I've watched some here and there and I don't always agree with everything you say but this video is pretty golden all of your chicks are really good here and I agree with almost every single one
If Michel Pereira has the opportunity to get a top 6 he will become top 6 by the end of the year. He has the ability to beat anyone and he has improved his strength a lot at middleweight.
BRO im subscribing to your channel you are on of the few channels that doesn't chat shit to chimaev and still give that man his flowers. They will find out in October 26
Personally I’d love to see the winner of Whittaker Vs Chimaev Co-Main on a PPV against Caio Borhallo with Dricus vs Strickland headlining. Winners fight each other. UFC is gonna push Caio heavy heavy either way.
Prochazka would be outclassed at middleweight. He is consistently slower than his opponents at LHW and he cannot keep up with the speed of MWs. His chin will be even worse. Jiri should stay at LHW and work on defense
Strickland loses 2 Beats imovov and a nobody can Dominates izzy Loses a split to dricus And gets a split over a recent 0-4 Costa What a wild run. 4-3 with 1 finish.
Cherry picking fights why not include his 3 fights before his Alex loss in which two of those are now top 10 middle weights? Strickland has beat 5/10 of the guys in the top 10 right now and his only losses at mw are too the lhw champ and 2 spilt decisions where many think he won
@joeswanson5486 cherry picking? Bro I'm just talking about his record. Nothing I said was salacious. Somehow facts are making you defensive? It's an interesting record, that's it. Didn't say anything else
@JoshuaSmith-no9mn man yall come out strong to defend against what actually happened. No bias in what I said but dang do facts get people's Jimmy's all rustled up
You want Borralho to sit out waiting for the loser of a fight that hasnt been booked yet. That could be 8 to 12 months of waiting. I would rather him fight Izzy or the loser of Khamzat/Whittaker. And Izzy doesnt deserve to fight someone close to tiltle picture like Imavov if he wins
He’s beat half the guys in the top 10.(Hermanson, Allen, inavov, Izzy and costa) he also got his first title in short notice and only loss in the top 10 is too the champ who many think he beat. Whittaker on the other hand only holds 2 wins(vetori and costa)over top 10 guys and 3 losses to the champ and Izzy. Plus all the guy Whittaker beat are no longer ranked or on their way out like Cannonier and soon vetori and costa.
@@joeswanson5486Sean was on a 2 fight losing streak then beat an unranked prospect and had a LHW bout then filled in against Izzy because everyone else was busy. After he won the belt he would then lose it in his first defense. A win over Costa shouldn’t give you a title shot especially if he’s coming off a loss
DDP vs Strickland Adesanya vs Caio Brendan/Imavov vs Loser of Khamzat/Whittaker Cannonier vs Dolidze(Cannonier faced 2 prospects back to back and sacrificed his ranking. He should be rewarded a winnable fight ) Costa vs Hermansson Marvin vs Pereira/Hernandez Curtis vs Gregory Rodriguez
Do the majority of ufc fans actually think Strickland should be next especially if ddp doesn’t fight till the middle of 2025? Whittaker/Chimaev would be way more deserving and have more steam off a win.

Whittaker has wins over 2/10 guys in the top 10(costa and vetori)and has lost to 3 of them. Strickland has wins over 5/10(izzy,hermanson,allen,costa and imavov)of the guys in the top 10 and only loss is too the champ😅😅. lol Cannonier out of the rankings and costa and vetori are only dropping.

Chimaev doesn’t deserve a title shot any time soon In my opinion. Only fought usman at middleweight which was on less than 2 weeks notice I’m pretty sure. Pulled out of multiple fights at middleweight. If he was to beat Whittaker, 2 wins in the division should not grant him a title shot. This would be different if he was a former champion moving up a weight class, but he is not so I think he’s very lucky being given the opportunities he is. No doubt he’s a very high level fighter but he the special treatment he is getting is ridiculous.
Brother, u just can’t give this newcomers massive opportunities because they won their last fight in some shity fight night in apex. Absolutely not, ufc first of all is a business organisation, this guys should build his legacy to deserve some big fight paycheques.

It is, plus some of the best prospects in the sport rn with bo sharabullet ikram etc.
Middleweight and Welterweight both heating up lots of prospects coming in to take out the trash

the middleweight division has to be one of the funnest in recent months, not even lightweight is as exciting anymore as middleweight.
Because ufc matchmakers suck bad lol
Middleweight went from the worst division to the best division
It’s because all of the top 15 lightweights haven’t been active especially the top 5
Funnest is not a word
It has the best prospects outside of maybe bantamweight

Caio vs Izzy could be made too imo
Caio Vs Winner of Imavov and Allen, number one contender for title shot
For me:
- Duplessis vs winner of whittaker / khamzat
- Izzy moving up to 205 fighting hill
- boralho vs winner of imavov /allen
Izzy is good friends with hill though so it wont happen. I would love to see izzy vs jiri

Mate Paulo vs cannonier is an opportunity you missed out on
Prochazka recently said that if Dricus wins he really might come down to middleweight. He would cause a ton of problems there imo
Only thing that would worry me is his chin from cutting weight
Prochazka would be outclassed at middleweight. He is consistently slower than his opponents at LHW and he cannot keep up with the speed of MWs. His chin will be even worse. Jiri should stay at LHW and work on defense
No he wouldnt
