Big fan of your channel since a long time:) and I’m from that part of the world:) but I have to disagree, since the first UFC days till Khabib there were around 3-4 russians fighting in UFC Taktarov and couple others! UFC is based out of US it of course you will have most Champions plus it was created by a Brazilian! Even today there’s not that many fighters from Russia in the roster, but still there’s many in top 15 they’re many talents in russia mostly in Caucasus region but due to politics they’re not able to fight in the UFC check out ACA that organization has amazing fighters but the whole organization is under sanctions they can’t fight in UFC
@traveler-1997-1 appreciate the long time support 🙏🏽. Idk about just 4 I think it was around 15 before and now about 40-50 now. Is that the Russian government blocking them, visa issues or combination of all that and in between?
It’s funny people be like African champions:) when Africa is 54 countries and nearly 1.5 billion population 🤔 even those few champions besides DDP not even trained in Africa Usman grew up in US Adasanya in New Zealand
@traveler-1997-1 good point but I think it's fair enough to claim your homeland. If Dakota Ditcheva wanted to rep Bulgaria that be fine or Mokaev wanted to rep Russia that's fine. Belal reps Palestine even though he's from Chicago.
@traveler-1997-1 true but they could also go by states and cities. Dagestan is small but Russia is big and a world power. Also Africa doesn't benefit from a rich history of combat "sports" like USA,Brazil,Russia,Mexico(boxing),Japan,etc
UHUH!🤣
Love U KOC🤍

@@KingOfCrackdown5095I agree! But still Africa is big:) even if they had 10 champions it wouldn’t be much:)
