All Diego’s fights have been 10x more exciting than evloevs + Diego has a bigger fan base. He’s already worthy of a higher ranking/title shot before movsar

@wideopenthrottl 3 дня назад

Wrong. The UFC believes there's more profit lately in the middle-east. Specifically UAE and Saudi money.

@aboodthebest7726 3 дня назад

@wideopenthrottl I agree with you. Even if diego has a larger fanbase. Movsar is a Muslim fighter. The Middle East has his back with the abu Dhabi and the saudi cards. Money talks

@TheBlob_5roundsIsAnOPP 3 дня назад

⁠⁠⁠⁠@@wideopenthrottl does matter what they believe 😂 Diego is objectively the bigger name here in the west and almost all ppv come from the west so if Diego puts on an amazing performance he’s gonna leapfrog ahead of evloev

I think Americans relate to him because he looks white and until he talks you would think he was a white American male. That’s what I think anyway cause that’s what I thought when I first seen him. Plus, he can fight. I seen him live at UFC fight night in Nashville. I had nearly ring side seats. Fun to watch live.
