- Michael Bisping looks into What's NEXT For UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira after his head kick knockout vs Jiri Prochazka at UFC 303? Is it a move in weight division to fight UFC Heavyweight Champions Jon Jones or Tom Aspinall or should he stay at Light Heavyweight then defend against Magomed Ankalaev. Regardless, the betting odds don't seem to favor the current champion in any of his next fights.

Who do you want to see Alex Pereira fight next? CHAMA 🗿
Alex vs cocksucka book it
Oh now it's chama after you've been dismissing him at each one of his fights. What will you say when he ko's aspinall?
Preferably Ankalaev to show he's a complete fighter.. 🎉
Nina’s boyfriend is gonna kill him
@@sebastianwhiteside5995never gonna happen
“I beat that guy one time.” - Izzy at a bar somewhere
Without Izzy your life would be kinda empty, right?
@@whoisOldboy Speak for yourself.
But Pereira beat him three times
Izzy’s already the second goat of the division so he’s good
looks more like Izzy’s on your mind not he’s bud
The fact that he stepped in short notice, with 2 broken toes ( to Coners 1 broken toe) makes mcgregor look like a total wimp lol
He had broken toes against Hill. This fight he broke his toe on the head kick.
Alex said if he had Conor's money he wouldn't fight either, Billy.
If Conors a wimp that makes you a Powerpuff girl billy

@@corvofalcone7489lol
It's hilarious that Dana doesn't understand the difference between P4P and GOAT 😂
P4P kinda does mean goat though. The all time P4P rankings has GSP first, Jones second, Mighty mouse third. It factors in weight division changes, and quality and ranking of opponents. Khabib isn't even top 5. The only fighters currently in the top 10 all time P4P rankings who haven't retired are Jones, Volkanovski and Aldo.
It's frustrating that at every single presser after a great win like Islam had and now Pereira. Dana just has to start talking about how Jones is better
@@GM-tw4el no... It doesn't 🤦🏻♂️ goat means greatest of all time
Guys. First of all, he does. He’s marketing a fight upcoming. He has nothing to lose by defending Jons spot. By NOT saying a champion who successfully defended isn’t higher than another champion, he’s not actively diluting anyone. You could say he’s limiting someone’s shine. That’s fair. But he’s trying to send stipe off with a big pay day while keeping the shine on his heavyweight champion. You get that right?
Moreover, anecdotally if you thought a guy in heavyweight WAS the greatest of all time, and he’s currently fighting, he WOULD BE P4P. I don’t think it’s outlandish to say Jon is someone’s legit goat. Not mine but I can understand. He’s already a heavyweight. If he’s someone goat, then he’s of course in their eyes P4P. If that’s confusing it makes sense bc you likely don’t have Jon as your goat. Fair enough but that’s what’s happening here
@@CYMotorsport seems you don't understand the difference either 🥴
That Stare down was almost as long as the fight itself.
Longer actually, was over 4 minutes.
Aspinal would finish these 2 guys under 1minute mark, same night
It felt longer tbh 😂
I don't understand how Ankalaev is #2 challenger, he has only beat Johnny Walker and made a draw against Jan. Ha hasn't fought Rakic, Hill or Jiri and beat Krylov like 3 years ago.
Its the weakest, shallowest divison in the sport.
@@nik07nik HW is about the same. Top 2 are about to retire and Aspinall has nobody with a name to fight. Lewis Gane and Tuivasa will bring him some views but as far as talent the division is weak.
Because Alex's beaten all the other guys at the top, or guys he's beaten have beaten the other ones there too... He's indirectly made less of everyone in that top 6, except for Ankalaev, which is next in line...
@@nik07nik It is...ive said that since ever...not to dish Pereira because he is doing it fast and impressively having no MMA background. ANd he proved his metal in MW...but yeah, LHW is one if not the weakest there is
@@bobdolesghost2406 This is true, weaker but not by much.
Ever since i watched periera win his 2nd glory title ive been a huge fan but when he signed to ufc he became my favorite fighter because of his story and it has been the coolest fan experience ive ever had with sports! Lets go alex chama!!!
Capping like a mfer 😂😂
@@wendigo1881 lmao I can watch every fight event from glory, ones mma,Muay Thai , and kickboxing promotions, UFC ,bellator/pfl,rizen, and every boxing fight for free so I've know who he was since 2017-2018 lol same with Jiri I'd watched him fight multiple times before he got to the UFC sorry not everyone's a casual like you 😂
Its the same as when you watch Ghey porn
Me too
@@zachbishop5421I know right? Lmao 🤣🤣🤣
Michael will pick Ankalaev when he fights Alex.. And he will prove wrong again lol😂😂😂
i think alex should be the favouritr with magomed... but the underdog vs tom
Ankalaev has no chsnce😂 his weak ass legs and trash boxing…
He has horrible wrestling from a distance he always has to get super closer for a clinch to trip hip toss or shoot a takedown
Alex is great at defending takedowns from the clinch
Only wrestler to pose a threat to Alex would be a Jordan boroughs that can shoot fast af from 20ft away😂
Watch round 3 of Izzy vs Pereira 1. Lmao.
He will agree enthusiastically & Nod his head while Smith further details his delusions & how he is literally only 1 fight away from the title
@@ApocalypticSignswhat happened round 5?
Let him be the man to unite the mess that is the heavyweight division!!!!
Amen my friend
Not like Tom isn’t trying. He’s done everything right but not getting the chance because of jones/dana.
@@ChrisIsATM ken mate. Love the big man but definitely a different aura with the big Brazilian fella.
@@JohnDunleaveyUK huge fan of both Alex and Tom myself. In my opinion however it would be crazy for jones to bypass Tom and go for Alex
Aspinall will win, Mark my words, aspinall will catch him off guard as Alex can get caught with a counter pretty easy like we saw against izzy, so Tom is gonna do what he did with pavlovich, and its heavyweight so they're gonna hit much harder
Aspinal is bigger problem for Alex
Exactly, Aspinal would destroy Jones too. But Jones is hiding for few years now.
It s not like Pereira is a complete beginner. I really don't understand this brainless argument. Pereira is more technical and experienced than Aspinall in striking and he has the power to knock him out. The only edge for Aspinall is his wrestling
@@SealOfPower LMAO, hiding? Destory? Get them Aspinal nutts outta your mouth...The man gets KO'd by the canvas! Remeber the contender or formar champ he beat...No? Of course you dont!
@@Pamanudavy-qz1vxand his wrestling is not that legit, I believe periera will win the match
@@vipulragnor8095 What about the extra 30 pounds Tom has on Alex lol come on now. Both are great but size matters.
Please can we STFU about McGregor. He is virtually dead in the water.
He is highly irrelevant at this point b
he was relavant against jouneyman fighters
@@Vlad88822 100% journeyman fighter that would smoke McGregor within a round. 👍
I think Poaton is the face of the UFC right now
He is 100%
Alex vs Ciryl Gane. Winner fights the winner of Tom and Curtis.
He already hits like a heavyweight, only question is does he have the chin to be a heavyweight and can he wrestle with 240-260lb dudes...?
chin maybe but wrestling most likely not. it’s hard to have a great or even good chin at heavyweight. his skill and distance management could prevent him from taking the heavy shots from the power punchers at heavyweight.
No. Easy answer.
Izzy fans are on suicide watch rn 😅
As Izzy slows strokes his dog
I'm not sure how that makes sense for them to be upset that Alex is doing well after Izzy was the last guy to beat him (as well as being the only competitive fight that Alex has really had in the UFC). If anything that seems to raise both guys overall stock.
@@Godzilla52
Well, Israel doesn't look happy, and her fans are a bunch of 🌈 🦄,
😂
Really? It just makes Izzy look that much more of a badass tbh. You really missed the own there, bobby.
Only izzy can save us from alex.
So you want Tom Aspinal to call out a guy that is not from the Heavyweight division? Yeah you can clearly see that Bisping and Tom have spoken about this.
When you weigh 230 lb and you drop 30 lb to fight way smaller guys why shouldn't he fight heavyweight he's already a heavyweight
Tom aspinall has always been a bully. The only reason he is desperately picking a fight with Jones because Jones is the smaller guy. He said it himself that Jones is smaller and he has not been tested in heavyweight.
@@MMABoneshe…just fought Sergei? Hes fought multiple “big” heavyweights lol why even are you on about lad
@@MMABones mate what are you even on about? I swear these AI bots have truly taken over
For me Alex needs to bide his time if he wants a heavyweight move, clear out the remaining contenders at light heavyweight, let Tom get his hands on Jones (if Dana stops protecting his golden goose), then go for the winner of that, he still has things to do at light heavyweight like beat Magomed and finally shut Jamahal up for good
He beat Hill already no one cares. Plus Alex is 36 now, he doesn’t have forever to go up to heavyweight. I say do it now while in your prime to give it your best shot to become immortal in the history books.
You must be stupid to say that Dana is protecting Jones. You guys called for a rematch with Gustaffson. He fought the NO. 1 contender Gane, Aspinal is just the new guy in town. After he beats Aspinal, your behind will be calling out Jones to fight Perera 😅. When is this going to stop? Until he loses?
Only Ankalaev and then up to Heavyweight
Jamahal? 😂 you’ve got to be kidding
One thing that pisses me off about stipe vs jones is that stipe ONCE AGAIN does absolute 0 to promote the fight.
He clearly doesn't care about fighting and hasn't cared for many years.
He has the chance to fight the GOAT and he just shrugs his shoulders....
He doesn’t get ppv points, he’s not the champ, why would he care?
@@jamesrevere2992 why is he fighting if he doesn't care
@@FrenkieWest32
Well, most people "need" money, don't you?🤷
@@MrElpajita If he needed money he would promote. There's tons of money to be made. Even if he doesn't directly benefit from PPV points, controversy == money in the fighting business, always.
@@MrElpajita if he needed money I'm sure he would have fought more in the past 4 years. Besides, it's almost like promoting your fights helps you make more money.
-800 for Jones is laughable. I don't understand why JJ is held in such high regard. This isnt 2014.
You dont know? Idio$
Blayde's would stop Jones 100 per cent. Everyone thinks Tom is gonna destroy Blayde's in the rematch. Watch the first fight again, all I'm saying. Kinda obvious watch happened to me.
Casuals 😂😂 yall just start watching last year, I hope so otherwise you two are hopelessly delusional lmao
People see a different Jon when he faught Ciryl. They think it was some kinda crazy iq play. Gane missed one punch and Jon used his new fat body to never let gane do anything forced a garbage choke and gane quit. Wasn’t some kind of crazy fight victory
@@Thebeltbelongstonoone Jones movement around the ring was like watching a Teletubbie. I remember in is hey day, he had so much snap in his movement.
I thought Jiri was gonna win too. Hands Of Stone "Whoa"
Damn, how you conclude that?
Months ago you saw what happened, Jiri had no time to change his fight plan, everything was against him! No chance
The term GOAT gets passed around to easily in the UFC/MMA community.
It's really ridiculous, I agree.
Yeah. A guy i work with is 22. Everything he likes is goated. its just a word said to be said. lol
The problem w the Stipe fight is nobody really thinks hes the best HW ever
He also hasn't had a fight in over 3 years and is 41 years old. A lot has changed since then.
I do, but not currently... Prime Stipe was a sight to behold.
@@kaminznanna Prime Stipe gets bodied by Aspinall. Also gets bodied by overweight DC, Jon Jones, probably Ngannou
@@______7224 prime Stipe beat DC twice and beat Ngannou 🤡
he was the best ufc champ when. but we are talking his DC days. but still has a chance to beat Jones, its a HW fight
Love the videos Mike. Keep it up Champ!
I believe he needs to fight Ankalaev and then he could justify HW. Possibly Aspinall against Pereria could be yhe co main on the Jones Stipe card and the two winners fight. That would be a huge event.
Not a bad idea really
Jon Jones vs Stipe should be the co main event.
If Jones wins he would retire and relinquish the belt to Aspinal, making him the undisputed, then Alex vs Aspinal takes place for the HW Belt 😅😊
@@ReNeDesCartes782 If he's going to be honest and let people know he plans to retire, that would be a great idea. The winner of Jon Vs Stipe could place the belt on the new champ.
Pereira vs Aspinall is too great to be just a co-main event, it already tops Jones vs Stipe who're inactive
Problem is that Poatan can't fight ankalaev and be ready for Aspinal in November.
I would go for Aspinall X Poatan as co-main event and pit ankalaev vs hill.
Ankalaev is the only one for poatan to.fight, but had 1 no contest and 1 draw in last 3 fights. Not impressive. Also, 2 fights in a row with Jhonny Walker don't enable nobody for a championship fight. Hill and ankalaev for 1st challenger position while poatan fights at HW.
Then, he comes back to defend the title at LHW.
Hopefully Tom can win for the UK, we need more active American heavyweights.
Bisping is always saying out loud what almost every ufc fan is thinking. Love this guy!
Pereira v Aspinall would be an insane fight. Can't see him beating Tom, who is just a totally different beast but it would be such an exciting fight. The heavyweight division has gone a bit quiet. That fight would wake it up.
Amazing work 👍🏼
Alex isn't going to be as effective at heavyweight, at least I hope not because that. Would. Be. Scary.
In terms of striking? He absolutely will be. There's not a single heavyweight in the UFC that would beat him standing up. Problem is that there are some good wrestlers. But if Alex can somehow manage to avoid getting taken down, I don't see anyone beating him in a striking match
They said this against USyk
@@jamiedavid8023 it's a different sport man, boxing you can only use your hands, in MMA the whole body is effective, and plus usyk has a better chin than alex, alot looser on his feet and his engine is something else, alex has better power but also depends how much alex decides to bulk up
@@GhostonTH-cam201x A bulked up Alex is a scary prospect.
@@JLB96- Izzy beat him standing up... Jan who is getting a bit old did quite well standing up against Alex. I would not be too quick to say 'nobody' and 'never'. Gane, as much as he dissapointed against Jones, beat Ngannou standing up.
Absolutely no way does Alex deserve a HW title shot without at least fighting a contender in that division. I love the guy but this is wrong.....but then again this is the UFC
When you have the belt you should be able to challenge for another. Perk of being a champion and opens up potential for genuine superfights.
I feel like if you rush him to the HW champ or interim champion he might lose I’d prefer to see him fight like a top 5 HEAVYWEIGHT first before going for the title
@@dervon9526he should fight volkov or gane. stylistically great fights and i could see alex decisively winning both.
I mean if Connor can come back and demand it then why not Alex? Alex brings the money to the fight it’s hard for the UFC to say no to a superstar
Ankeliev does not deserve it 😤
Thanks for the video, Michael Bisping
I love ya Michael, big fan, but I know you want your boy Tom to ragdoll Alex (which he absolutely will) lol we see you big dawg. It’s fine though I’d like it as well.
fans would definitely go crazy if aspinal calls out the POATAN
Man that would be awesome
I would love to see him fight any of the three name u mentioned. My take is he might struggle for the first 2 rounds to adjust the wrestling and grappling but I think he can find a way to beat all of them.
No need to wait for the prediction video on this one
Love watching your show. Remembered you as a young cocky fighter that was hard to like, was cheering for Benny when he knocked you out.
But the way you have fought back from that defeat and eventually won your belt, as a fight fan it was one of the most memorable moments.
Keep up the good work.
No way Jon Jones will accept fight with Alex!
Tom Aspinall is being avoided, so no way he wants the danger of Alex.
Jones doesn't want either of them. I wouldn't be suprised if after Stipe he tried to give Gane a rematch lol
Alex and Tom should fight, the winner would be undeniable, Jones would have to fight them.
@@cvolante8032weren’t you saying the same about Cyril?😂😂😂😂as soon as Jin sent him packing suddenly he wasn’t ready
Tom Aspinall can grapple, Alex cannot...
Jones is ducking tom and alex cause he said he would give a chance only IF alex beats tom first
Aspinall v Perreira would be insane. Whoever wins fights the GOAT.
Aspinal, never beat a former champ, never help a belt, never fought for a belt, got finished by the canvas. Jones beats them both...14 titles fights WON. Lol, welcome to the sport!
@@nik07nik He is the interim champ... He has the interim belt. Arlovski is a former champion. Volkov is a former champion. I don't often say it, but casual.
😂😂😂 sure
@@FrenkieWest32
OMG, calling me a causal at the end of that post just made my day, i literally laughed out loud! Arloski was a champ 20 years ago! I watched the fights WHEN THEY HAPPENED casual. He just got cut! Volkov never won the UFC belt! No one who knows this sport puts any weight on a # contender "belt" casual!
You are beyond "casual".
Questions:
When you are thinking about Apsinal, what does his kiss taste like? Who is on top?
@@nik07nik nice that you googled it. Next step is not trying to pretend you werent wrong.
true words my friend !
The thing with stylistic matchup is.
A. In lower weight classes, it may hold true, but here, one punch or kick is all it takes, and for someone as precise as Alex, it's hard to pull it off.
B. Range management. Alex is not only technical but physically gifted as well. He can stay out of range and only go in for that one strike to make the difference.
Alex might beat Jon Jones but Tom Aspinall would absolutely maul Alex. It wouldn't be pretty to watch.
He lost to Curtis Blaydes lol
@@fluzzerr Shut up. For the sake of everybody's brain cells, just be quiet.
@@fluzzerrJon Jones lost to his sparring partner lol
@@liquid_metal During s*x?
No way should Alex get that fight over the interim champ of the weight division..imo
Izzy at a Comic-Con somewhere:
“Hmm…..I beat that guy one time”
As amazing as all of Poatan's achievements are, he'd get pulverized by a Jones or an Aspinall. You can't be getting knocked out stiff by a skinny middleweight and expect to beat the big dogs at heavyweight. Once a Jones or Aspinall get a hold of him it's a wrap. This is mma not kickboxing.
he can beat Jones but impossible Tom
Lol
Jones is a worldclass striker as well as grappler. He's alot more rounded. Tom is just a big fast striker, which Pereira can deal with.
With all due respect to Alex, he won't beat Jones. Jones will outwrestle him if not submit.
@@GM-tw4el Dude, you are gonna hurt alot of feelings here with the facts you just stated. Take it easy, Aspinal fans are VERY sensitive. If you are in the UK there are laws against hurting feelings.
kkkkkk tom é superestimado kk o pereira ganah dele sem suar kk
Alex and Jones!
Winner of Pereira vs. Aspinall to bait out Jones
Biggest problems for Alex in HW , Almeida , Blades , Aspinal Jones..
I believe in one year would be in position to neutralise the grappling advantage they have over him ,and this is the reasonable time for him to step up after facing Ankalaev and the scenery in HW will be clear , Jones vs Miocic
9:44 "I toiled for years, getting no respect, getting boo'd in the cage, called a cookie boy, a goody two-shoes, a stack of waffles, before I got a title shot." hehe
Bisping just wants Pereira to move up just so his boy Tom can get a free win 😂
What are you on about he wants him to fight Jones
Alex most definitely could make history. People say he cant tango with the heavy weights. Seriously? Like aren't yall tired of doubting this man over an over an over. He proved himself already. Alex writes his own scripts.
did you say that also before he lost to Izzy?
@@FrenkieWest32
you mean after he pieced up iizzy and became champ right? I mean cleeeeeeaarly he hasn't improved since that 1 lost right?🤡
How much fights is he unbeaten since then again? The fact that you brought that up means Your holding onto shizz that's dead an gone so long ago, the cope is unreal😭🤣
I guess people don't train an improve🤦🏽♂️
@@gamerguynick3 didn't answer my question... and you talk about cope?
@@FrenkieWest32
you literally brought up something irrelevant and worth not mentioning. Why would I entertain you on that lmaooooo
Find someone else to talk about the past with, I have no interest sadly boo hooo
@@gamerguynick3 thats why you keep responding? Empty life...
You are damn right bro.
No way. Finally have an active champion. Let him defend in his weight class. Against a guy he hasnt beaten on short notice and a guy coming off a rough injury. Alex is fantastic but ffs next we’re gonna call him the goat. Guys… Izzy just flat lined him barely a year ago… and not to mention how human he looked vs Jan.
while LHW is a weaker division, I’d still love to see him fight magomed. I mean.. bc the division is so thin wouldn’t he have to ? Chill on that noise vs a heavyweight. If Izzy can sleep him… imagine what Jon and Tom can do. There’s no need to derail him when he doesn’t even need to be a threat to the bigger divisions . Let him keep the LHW active
Underrated comment.
It's gonna be fun to see Bisping cry when Alex knocks out his boy Aspinall. Haha😂😂😂
I’m a Poatan fan but if Izzy can knock Alex out then Tom absolutely would in the first round
Alex walks around at 235 izzy got a 50 pound lighter dehydrated husk of a man. He was clearly losing, just like every fight he fought against him. Chama with full fat and fluids , it'll be a fun and tough go for Tom. He should utilize grappling for sure and I believe he will because he's currently the greatest fighter on the planet right now❤
@DaniAustin-gu9ec yeah some clowns are just haters lol. The power he possesses is just unreal. 1 hook is all it takes. Look at all his victims so far. All knocked into the shadow realm. 😂
@DaniAustin-gu9ec well I’ve followed him in glory aswell I knew he’d starch the guys at LHW too.. at heavyweight he can knock guys out for sure but they have a way higher chance of knocking him out aswell
@@buktomsin 50 pounds lighter? You're completely delusional.
Jones would finish Pereira and Aspinal in round one!
I agree with everything you said
Connor pulls out due to an owee. He doesn't want to fight. Peraira has the same injury and wins the fight
I think Ankalaev scary guy So maybe stay at light heavyweight and fight him first
Why ? Cus he beat jhonny Walker? Walker who?
@@shyme_8280 because it'll be the first guy he fights with good grappling
Ankalev is inactive and has not beaten anyone in the top. Also he's trying to put his conditions. I don't think Dana will give him a title shot.
Ok well maybe I'll just think he looks scary 🤷♀️
Don't think AP should move to HW. He's relatively skinny and will need to put on a lot of weight to compete with HW beasts, who cut weight to fit.
@@iggs67 weighed in at 205 was in the ring fighting at 235. He could totally do it
@@armandomorenotherevival7827 Yeah but his coaches said his optimal weight would be 245lbs. He'd lose quite a bit of speed, and many of the top HWs are above 255lbs like tom aspinall whos 262lbs and he moves faster than alex at middleweight.
In my perfect world Poatan Faces Aspinal.
Right now before his age gets to him.
Hes already 38.
Not much time for greatness left.
8:53 😂💯
Bisping trying to get his buddy Aspinall an easy win and a big payday..Alex should stay where he is and improve on his ground game, when he loses, he should take his time, put the weight on properly, and then move up..Just like he went from middle weight to light heavy weight..
Go my boy
This has been hands down my favorite episode
Defending an interim belt twice would be silly, and tom has said already he's going to wait as long as it take after Blaydes
Bisping always has sharp analysis and great ideas
Jon wants it too he knows it'll be an ez fight for him. I mean look what he did to Ciryl who has the same background as Alex.
Alex vs Cyril Gane will be a pure muay thai/kickboxing match, no idea who wins.
#1 Aspinal Vs Jones
#2 Alex Vs Jones
#3 Alex Vs Aspinal
In that order gives Alex a well deserved rest.
Tom asking to defend an interim belt for a third time against a killer and potential future GOAT? ... UFC done this man dirty
i completely agree with you Michael.Give Poatan a shot at heavyweight
Damn, I was not expecting that, Mike. I think Alex may have finally gotten through to you. I truly was expecting an Aspinall shining session, but you surprised me! He’d knock Blaydes and Aspinall out in the same night, btw.
I agree
Alex lands one punch at any weight and its over! My bro took a pic with him in melbourne Australia and his hands were as big as his head! Dudes just a monster....
Agree
I totally agree that IF Tom beats Curtis, he should call out Alex. That is definitely the fight to make
Grapplers have to somehow figure out how to get it to the ground before their eyes are in the back of their head
Jones is gonna be running from both men now 😂😂
It's a fair analysis and very correct.
Alex should be given a chance to fight for the heay weight Title after Tom Vs Curtis Blade fight.
It would be absolutely CRIMINAL for Tom Aspinall to have to fight Alex unless gold is on the line
Ankalaev will really test his take dwn defense. He needs to go through Ankalaev before going up to HW.
I love Dana's Rogan impression, "Let 'em fight heavyweight.. Come on! Just do it!"
No disrespect to Stipe, I love stipe, but he hasn't fought in forever! He hasn't fought since before Alex joined the ufc. There is ZERO reason to shake ring rust off against Jon Jones.
The world have never seen such great striker ever like Alex
That was a silly feeling I didn’t even watch your vid on that one
Aspinall... Fights at 260, 6'5.... and he's fast as lighting. Alex would have a gain a lot of muscle in a short period of time to get in the ring with Tom. 😮
If aspinal does the call out and they fight, it has to be for the unified heavyweight belt
Ankalaev is next
I agree! But I still think even if pereira loses to ankalaev then he could still get that fight against either jones or aspinall!
Title shot 100%
Interim belt is not worth it. Jones slows the entire devision down while having only a single fight in it.
I don’t think Alex should accept a challenge from Tom. Jon is much closer to his size and would draw more attention and status win or loose.
The HW fight we want is JBJ vs Aspinal. Then we’ll see if Alex should go HW or not.
Straight Facts Mike.... lets make Alex Vs JJ
I'm out of the loop but where is Michael Bisping these days why is he not on broadcasts with the UFC
If he beats Ankalaev, then moves up to beat Aspinal and Jon he's hands down the goat
Alex missed out on the best callout he coulda made : HEY JON JONES...COME TO DADDY
Its bad enough we have someone defending the interim title in this 'one off circumstance' but anything other than Jones Fighting Aspinal or retiring after the Stipe fight is normalising this madness. They are all just BMF belts at that point..
You are amazing busting real warrior and an example for all men! Sure pereira is a Hells Dragon no doubt about that but the mental resolve to win and defend the title with one eye is truly incredible
Honestly Michael, after your Jiri knockout prediction and how the fight actually went down. Your opinion lost its edge. 😂
Ankalaev will be the one that proves to be Alex's toughest challenge to date. Also he's the next in line if you ask me
Exactly what Micheal bisping say it's true I like the Idea let the world notice who the best fighter is in MMA record 100 💯 agreed 💯
