🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread

The possibility is surely there Masvidal can be a very highly recommended for Usman but Leon Edwards is also a shot for Kamaru Usman to take

My prediction for the next match up in the welterweight division is that Kamaru Usman will be defending his belt against Jorge Masvidal and then if    
Tyron Woodley is willing to fight then he will take on Leon Edwards for the number one contender and Conor McGregor is always in the mix as he just fought two fights in the lightweight division with one loss and still he is ranked number 3 which is crazy and he is not even ranked in the featherweight division which he was active  .

I was thinking about the fights we will have this weekend, and Frankie Edgar vs Chan Sung Jung, should be a good one, i think Frankie Edgar will win this one. He deserves this win because with his bad streak he haven't done well this year at all. So, he needs to clear his name and reputation. This fight is a good chance for it.

Then we can highly see a Kamaru Usman VS Jorge Masvidal then, I really like how Masvidal handle things and that is doing it the hard way I might say his determination is there and getting ready every fight is what he has done best, pretty sure this is a most notable fight to see, if your prediction is really true then I think Usman is ready as well in every fight he just got up even a notch,

While Leon Edwards was also great with a matchup with Tyron Woodley, but I want to see how Conor McGregor can take on Leon Edwards if he surely deserves the number 3 spot.

There is no hype between Conor McGregor and Leon Edwards for the fans to get excited but there is a soda incident between Jorge Masvidal and Leon Edwards and we will have a good dramatic sequence if they fight each other but what i did not understand till now is the direction in which Conor McGregor is going, is he looking for just fights to make money or he is targeting any belts. If Conor wins against Cerrone what next, will he call out Nate Diaz for a trilogy which is another high value fight which i expect him to do after that.

If he need money, he could make a rematch against Floyd Mayweather Jr. That is the "place" where money are

Floyd would gladly beat him for good. But this is purely money making scheme which people might not anymore be willing to watch on PPV. I personally just want  to watch them wrestle in the mud because this puts them both in a disadvantage. I'd like to see them trash talk knowing they'd fight on the mud.

Floyd Mayweather Jr is a really smart person and if you look back Floyd knew he had the best opportunity to fight Conor McGregor and make a ton of money because of his persona and Conor too knew about it and so is the reason he started poking about a possible fight in social medias and during interviews and the fans got excited because during that period everyone felt like Conor McGregor was invincible and could defeat even the greatest defensive boxer of all time and so was the reason there was a huge hype and we know what happened, Conor Gassed out and got knocked out eventually by Floyd Mayweather, you have to remember Floyd usually never knocks out any boxer and now who will be spending money to watch that rematch in a PPV .

I'm not sure about that, for me Edgar is already way past his prime. UFC fighters did level up, competitions are very different when he was campaigning before so I wouldn't be surprised if he lost to Jung and his losing streak continues. He doesn't had to clear his name and reputation though, no had done enough throughout his career.

I don't think that there will be hype of Floyd Mayweather rematch, they have made tons of money out of it and I they can't fool us twice.

He should go back to UFC and fight anyone including Masvidal or Edwards and then chase money fights. Sort of building his records first and maybe fight fans might be interested on a Khabib fight in Russia.

Tell me...  Who do you guys think was winning this bout before that weird elbow from Rodriguez.  It was pretty close (tho slight edge went to KZ imho).

I am not saying that there is a hype between them, my point here was because of Kamaru Usman winning against Colby Covington and whats next on him, and we just pointing out if Jorge Masvidal or Leon Edwards was on the line for him to be his next opponent, Well Conor McGregor in the other hand is just lingering in the corner of who will be the next in line for him if Leon Edwards would have a match up with Kamaru Usman then be defeated by Usman McGregor can snatch a fight with Leon Edwards, Well I am just saying that I want to see a McGregor and Edwards fight in the future if that would be possible to happen.

Korean Zombie was clearly winning the fight and with one second left Yair Rodriguez produced an wonderful reverse elbow like no one ever saw in the history of fighting and even Korean Zombie never anticipated that shot coming and hence he was confident with his movements even during the final few seconds, i would rather run if i knew i was winning the fight rather than entertaining the crowd .

Well I am just saying that I want to see a McGregor and Edwards fight in the future if that would be possible to happen.

It will be a really huge fight, Leon Edwards is British and Conor McGregor is Irish and the fans will be crazy and we might even see the fans fighting each other in the lobby but the big problem is that Leon Edwards is a natural 170 pound fighter who does not cut much weight and Conor McGregor might walk around at that weight and if they fight it will not be an easy fight for Conor McGregor as Leon is a monster and his legit defeat was against Kamaru Usman in 2015 and after that he is on a winning streak.

If Floyd Mayweather is planning to fight in the UFC you could see a record breaking PPV but when it is a boxing match i doubt you could even match the hype they had in the first fight even though Conor was a amateur in boxing because all the PPV buyers were intrigued by the hype and the trash talking and it is really difficult to do the same in a rematch.

[eaLiTy]

@eaLiTy - not watching Conor vs Floyd II. 

If Conor McGregor can prove that he has improved on his cardio and with time Floyd Mayweather is aging too so that his reflex might not be the same like before and if everything aligns the same then i might watch the rematch other than that the rematch will be the same like the first fight, Conor advancing in the first few rounds but taking cover and trying hard to survive in the later part of the fight and ends up knocking out in the end when his hands does not move up to cover his chin  . I consider both these fighters as characters and Floyd Mayweather made his money as a cocky spendthrift where everyone wanted to see him get knocked out and Conor McGregor had a nation behind him for majority of his career as he was an Irish super star with his fighting skills but right now he pissed off many of his hardcore followers and the casual fans knows what the result would be if they box again, Conor McGregor gassing out and that is the fact . I spent money to purchase the first PPV and i am not going to do that again  .

This gentleman below speaks right words. If Floyd is crazy for money and have balls to step in the octagon, then this fight will a new PPV record.

Age is a major factor in any sport and Floyd Mayweather is turning 43 years of age this February and does anyone really think that he will be planning to make a debut in a new sport where he has no experience when he is really old, i really do not think so, but the positive side is that Dana White is planning to focus his attention to the boxing world and we might see some cross promotion between Floyd Mayweather and Dana White other than that to think that he will be fighting is just imagination by the media and the fans alike because everybody likes to see Floyd getting defeated and so is the hype  .

If ever Floyd Mayweather Jr will step inside the octagon, what do you think he will do? Run around and wait for the bell to ring as a sign of the end of the round? If its rematch between Conor and him and this time its UFC rules, Conor will win and PPV will surely break all standing PPV records but I am not expecting Floyd to engage in a grappling match between any MMA fighter, worst I guess is that he will agree for an exhibition match with rules tweaked on his favor.

Hah, I still remember that we have a thread and everyone was shouting that the fight won't happen because Floyd's legacy will be affected. And guess what, he doesn't f**ing care, as long as he made big money, he will go for it, so yeah those two have a contracting character but they can sit down and negotiate when there's a big money in table. . Maybe casual fans will buy because of the hype and the trash talking, but I'm sure majority are not into it anymore. I'll probably watch it in youtube,
