Topuria KO'd Max...

Post by PhutureDynasty »

Sorry Wailua... I was rooting for your boy. He's probably my second favorite fighter ever.

I don't want to see Ilia vs Volk again.

I'd rather he goes up and challenges Islam.

I think Islam was promised a shot at WW if he wins his next defense. I don't think he'd fight Belal though.

Islam/Shavkat would be the most intriguing fight I can think of in MMA right now (for me).

I forgot Islam wanted to go up.

He won't fight Belal because they're both Muslims, I guess?

Same manager and probably some level of friendship.

That makes sense.

Hi fellow MMA fans! What’d y’all think about Whittaker’s overrated ass getting his neck nearly snapped in half?

I'm pretty sure something happened to his jaw prior to the submission attempt.

Whittaker is clearly on the decline, and he has been for a bit.

Still a great win though. Skeptics should be satisfied (to the level of justifying a TS). Next fight should be a title shot.
