I say give Chimaev to Usman at this point. Who else is the Champ going to fight if not the guy that just beat the number 2?

I don't want to see Volk/Holloway 3 already.
A lot of people don't like the idea of Colby/Khamzat, but I like that fight.
Will be interesting to see how Cejudo fights.

Izzy’s reaction to Khamzat Gilbert was like all of us.
I love that fight. While Kamaru & Leon slug it out, this is perfect.

I like the fight. Maybe Khazmat could give Colby the beating others have failed to deliver. I just think Khazmat has proven he deserves a title shot at this point.
Wow
I don’t usually agree with Schaub but a 100% dead on the money.

Morning Report: Brendan Schaub: Dana White ‘f***** Aljamain Sterling over’ by saying he didn’t beat Petr Yan
Aljamain Sterling has gotten the last laugh when it comes to his rivalry with Petr Yan, but detractors remain regardless of the outcome.

He's right. I don't mind when Dana makes comments like that about clear robberies, but he should be more careful when discussing close fights like this one. It could have gone either way on the judges scorecard, so it doesn't make any sense to undermine one of your fighters like that. That said, we all know Dana has his favorites and has no problem shitting on other fighters particularly when they win out over his favorites.
That said, I really don' t like Sterling. I hate when people try to rewrite history. "Oh I chose to give him those last two rounds. I could have won those too if I wanted." Really nigga? You're in a close fight for a championship but you just chose to give the closing rounds to the other fighter just cause? Ok.

He def has more tools to win a fight. Izzy’s the ultimate specialist so if I had to pick a fighter to watch, I’d go with him. 10 out of 10 times but I agree Volk is top dog right now.
With all the shit sandwiches Sterling had to hate for past year (mainly brought up on himself), if he wants to stretch the truth a little bit, I’ll allow it LOL. He really pulled the impossible though. He was getting cooked by Yan, OD on his reaction after the knee, made them wait and still came back and won. I just love the chaos he brought to the UFC, lol.

I hear you, but the bold is part of what I'm talking about. Like dude, you were getting clowned in that first fight. I'd have more respect for him if he came on and said something like "Yeah, Yan is a good fighter. The first fight didn't go the way I wanted, but we reset and when I got in there this time I feel like I had him figured out. But to get on that podcast and act like it was an easy fight and that Yan was no challenge and that he was winning the fight so convincingly that dropping two rounds was no big deal is just crazy to me.
Also, him embracing the whole acting this is lame. Like even people that support you think you went over the top with that shit, so why would you double down and almost admit to the fact that you put on a show to get the belt?
