I also skipped the last 2 cards. I have better things to do and don’t care for the Apex cards. Last Apex card I buzzed through was when Jim Miller fought.
For probably 7-8 years I haven’t missed a single card let alone fight. I’ll admit, it’s a long streak that I have gone out of May to keep because every single card is something I look Forward to each week. Just wanna see fights
How quickly we forget Khamzat missed weight by 8 lbs last time he had a welterweight fight. Not to mention it is promotional malpractice not to have belal in the next Welterweight championship fight turn up. Like it or not, he has earned it
Love the fact that Ariel's one of us, a Super Red, and he spoke about his love of Nottingham Forest and how it come about to his son. You ought to pay the world famous City Ground a visit if you ever over here, Magic bruh.
I feel like the reason for the Apex being flogged at the moment, is because Dana is padding out 298,299 and 300 with all the good matchups, which doesnt leave a lot of top tier fights to headline these Fight Nights. Dana is likely to be hesitant to put these weaker Fight Nights into an arena as he will be worried that they wont sell. (got to keep up those gate records!) He will consider an Apex event to be preferable to a half empty arena. Hopefully things will even out once we get past these big PPVs in the early year... (Hopefully!).
@@amhmnsh I agree that Merab vas Petr is a top teir fight, but look at the headliners recently. Hermansson vs Pyfer (No. 11 vs Unranked), Dolidze Vs Imavov, Upcoming is Rozenstruik vs Gaziev, Tuivasa vs Tybura etc. etc. These fights just arent at the level you build an arena card around and expect a sell out. I think the UFC recognises this and are protecting their brand, so people arent pointing out that the UFC isnt selling out cards all of a sudden. I think they have "blown" 3 months of Fight Night headliners, by stacking the upcoming PPVs.
Why does area keep talking about WrestleMania and www e like? It's like this huge f****** combat sports event like dude, nobody cares about WrestleMania anymore.
Man, i do not like Dern taking this fight. Short notice against an opponent whom have been preparing for Suarez which means her wrestling and grappling will be on point. And Lemos has real KO power behind her hands. And the way Derns striking looked against Andrade.... sheeeesh.
Same thing should be said in return both them are old stipe is 40+ jon almost 40. Could tom feel good about himself beating 2 past there prime old man. I couldn't
I get it but if they’re in the way of him getting the belt then so be it, it’ll be his job to take them out no matter their age. It may take a KO from Aspinall for them to realize that.
Tired of everyone complaining about apex shows I would rather get to watch ufc almost every week of the year then alot less than that and I strongly believe that within the next 5 to 10 years there will be very little apex shows cuz they will have enough "stars" they can go to arenas 2 to 3 times a month but right now they can't and I'd rather watch more of it then less
Hiiiiiyaaaaaa EVERYONE 👋 👋 👋. Iv just found out that Im not the only person in the world thats bringing sexy back!! But on a serios note HEY ARNOLD 👋😏 🏈
It was cool to watch the karate hottie retire I remember many years ago people were talking about her before she ever came into MMA... DAMN I'm getting Old AF lol
I don't like Ariel the way he's talking about Jon jones like he hasn't fought the best of the best for the longest time. he fought every killer at light heavyweight and now he takes a break and gets injured and Ariel just constantly saying who cares about Jon jones
UFC pushed Dern too fast. She should be going through her growing pains in Invicta. The goal should've been to win a title there first while working on her blaring weaknesses.
Mackenzie got schooled in her last fight. She has to improve her striking and learn how to tuck her chin if she is going to be a champion in mma. She reminds me of ronda rousey but hopefully she will be able to get better at these fight skills.
Stipe is such a coward. He's ready to fight but knows Tom will f him up he spoil his fight with Jon....in which Jon will f him up anyway. Ur retiring with an L no matter what Stipe
Did anyone ever tell Ariel that Khamzat was here in Vegas after Jacksonville? I didnt watch the whole thing. I can’t believe he missed that. He’s usually better with his memory of PPVs.
I don't understand how gordon Ryan and craig jones can be at such odds when they were both in the highly successful danaher death squad. maybe that's why they split up I don't know the details
Tom Aspinall absolutely sucks! Fight Curtis Blades who beat you! How about that! LMFAO talking about Jones who has more title defenses than all Tom's wins combined! Ohhh I get it it's because Ariel helwani hates Jon Jones and Jones just like DDP won't go on the MMA hour. Booo whoooo I live in the reality of facts!
this is the actual dumb comment. ariel is covering the sport. without him doing he job we would basically have 0 people how are even close to being critical of the UFC's business practises. you don't the fighters feel all kinds of thing regarding the UFC but can't say anything since they are expendable and the UFC is a monopoly and rules with an iron fist. i'm amused you don't understand a single thing of this. you don't have to watch ariel or like him. but you damn well have to respect him and his contribution to the sport we love.
