I was expecting Colby to retire after he fought and lost to Leon Edwards. Maybe this could be his way back into the title contention and the same would go for Shavkat, who's been undefeated in the UFC.

Alex won't be turning into a ground fighter, it's too late for him to adapt a completely new style, he'll stick to what he knows best and what has worked for him quite nicely.
MMA is all about changing style all the time, and he did very good so far in most of his MMA fights ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Błachowicz is great on the ground, and so is Prochazka but he was better than both of them. You cant be from Brazil and be weak on the ground with so many good sparring partners.

There are two time of "not interesting" guys in UFC. First can not make a story, drama or whatever it needed to attract attention to fight and make ticket sale. But they can show a real war in octagon. They are not seller, not businessmen, they are just fighters. And there are those who talk a lot, get attention, but are average in the octagon.
I would argue that the 2nd type is not "not interesting". If they can attract attention and sell tickets, there must've been something interesting about them. The 3rd (and the worst) type, are the guys who can't/won't create any media hype outside of Octagon, and inside they only focus on playing it safe, scoring jabs and winning rounds. Rumours are brewing that Colby Covingtion vs Shavkat Rakhmonov is in the works for the near future. I was expecting Colby to retire after he fought and lost to Leon Edwards. Maybe this could be his way back into the title contention and the same would go for Shavkat, who's been undefeated in the UFC.
Probably just rumours. I can't see any media reporting on this. I can't imagine Colby taking that fight, unless the UFC forced him to. We all know who would win it. Easily. Błachowicz is great on the ground, and so is Prochazka but he was better than both of them.
Both Blachowicz and Prochazka prefer stand up fights though. I wouldn't call Prochazka great on the ground though, he's definitely more of a striker. Blachowicz is past his prime, at the peak of his career, he would be choking out Alex within the first round. You cant be from Brazil and be weak on the ground with so many good sparring partners.
You can if you dedicated most of your career to kickboxing ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

If it was just my vision and a couple of guys that is one thing. But there are many who think he is dull. I do not think it is enough for a fighter to actually fight really well in the octagon. We can look at someone like Conor McGregor. He is not a very good fighter anymore. But if he is associated with a certain fighter, he can generate a lot of noise., right? Even if you look at someone like Khabib Nurmagomedov, he did not talk too much trash but he definitely was funny at times. And he could also generate a lot of noise. So only being really good in the octagon is not enough. At least you will have to generate some noise outside the octagon. But there will be some times when you cannot be the crowd favorite. But that's just being unlucky and that is probably less than 1% of the time

And if Covington agrees with the match up and signs the dotted line, then win or lose I think he'll retire after the fight. Anyway, how many among you got Dolidze to win this weekend's main event. Imavov is better on the feet and more technical with decent TD defense. But dunno, I feel like Dolidze is gonna grind Imavov for most of the fight and wear Imavov down.

But that's just being unlucky and that is probably less than 1% of the time Khabib was able to shut anyones mouth and do it impressively. If he would win most of his fight by UD, he wont be so popular. Actually he is not the best example, as before him, there were no other such impressive fighters from post soviet territory. From the start he has a huge support by fans. Plus he has got charisma. I doubt that Belal has even close amount of fans not to mention charisma. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.postimg.cc%2FydwhQvn2%2Fimage.png&t=665&c=PxRv-VwLvcBZ3Q) This game image says it all ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Dominator with 43 UD ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Reddit is killing him ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) " Belal "leave it in the hands of the judges" Muhammad" , " Belal ‘remember to set your alarm in 15 minutes’ Muhammad" , " Belal “Crickets in the background” Muhammad".

Well, we all know that the internet comment section has become really unforgiving. But this was really something ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) . And of course, there are reasons for people for actually saying those things. Because most of the time those things are true. I believe he should stop playing it safe and actually take some risks. otherwise, he is not going to have the explosive level of performance that people want from him. Even if we talk about Khabib, he was actually finishing people. He did play it safe but he also was explosive when needed. However, Belal is just always playing safely and trying not to lose somehow. That is not what people like to see.

Edwards vs Muhammad as main event on UFC300. God no, please. I almost got heart attack right now. Watching 25min fighters being busy doing everything except making sharp moment.
Jus to think about, do you think Belal is able to change his status of one of most boring fighters or “Mr.a-always-decision” before retirement? He really need more impressive victories. Otherwise no matter how good he will be, UFC wont give him big names.
It will be a Boring fight for sure, and this is going to be a rematch for these two fighters as their 1st match was a no contest due to an accidental eye poke to Belal Muhammad, and because Leon Edwards has an open fist which most fighter does, and because the MMA gloves were the issue they want to reinvent the gloves into the closest glove there is to offer, but because many doesn't like that kind of idea it didn't come to fruition, I really think that when Belal Muhammad now has training of team Khabib on his system this is another factor that many are seeing as an advantage for Belal Muhammad but for me both fighters had wrestling and I think Leon Edwards has a great wrestling scramble there is, and against Muhammad even though he got to train under wing Khabib, I haven't seen him in tight spaces and using those scramble for now, so this might be interesting and could also be a disappointment, ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.talkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F01%2F31%2FkpMVo.png&t=665&c=RxNGOYToZi80hw) Rumours are brewing that Colby Covingtion vs Shavkat Rakhmonov is in the works for the near future. I was expecting Colby to retire after he fought and lost to Leon Edwards. Maybe this could be his way back into the title contention and the same would go for Shavkat, who's been undefeated in the UFC. For sure he will try his way by talking shit against his opponent think and Shavkat Rahkmonov will just be smiling in the corner thinking what is he talking about, for sure Shavkat Rahkmonov will just ignore this and in the ring, he will surely unleash hell inside, for sure Colby Covington will just only aiming sympathy again, and he will just going to say his wrong advocate for sure all of that will be just him scheming something for sure, as we all know Colby Covington, he will try and get Donald Trump trust again, but I would like to see Shavkat Crash his face inside the Octagon for sure, well, he is getting on my nerve,

I can see what the UFC is trying to do here but after what we saw of Covington in his last fight, I'd rather see a match between two prospects. Rakhmonov vs Chimaev imho. I think Rakhmonov will expose Chim and give him a good beating.
That would be an awesome fight, but it would be a stupid move to set two rising stars against each other on an early stage. From the UFC perspective, it's way better to let them climb to the top by beating up big names past their primes, let them get all the fame they deserve and then set them up against each other and generate huge revenue. But yeah, my money would go on Rakhmonov. But pretty sure Rakhmonov will be eager to fight a vet in Covington. And if Covington agrees with the match up and signs the dotted line, then win or lose I think he'll retire after the fight.
Why would he retire if he was to somehow win with Shavkat? I think Colby will be looking to fight for as long as he can. He's too invested in creating his persona and won't give it up easily. He was calling out Stephen Thompson after his loss to Leon, which shows he's looking for easier opponents to stay relevant for longer.

-snip-
Pereira has actually fought fighters with decent ground game, be it Strickland, with a solid wrestling background, or Blachowicz, a jiu-jitsu black belt. It's just they didn't capitalise on their ground game advantage. Strickland got knocked out and Blachowicz only managed to get 3 takedowns which led to nothing. So it's hard to say if Pereira has been tested or not. There are no wrestlers of Khabib's calibre in the light heavyweight. Ankalaev is also a wrestler, but he's not anywhere near Khabib's level. Still, he's good enough to take Pereira to the ground and drown him there, that's why I expect the UFC will prefer to move Pereira down to the middleweight than to get him to fight Ankalaev. It seems like Pereira has faced opponents with a solid ground game, such as Strickland and Blachowicz, but they couldn't fully capitalize on their advantage. The question of whether Pereira has been truly tested arises, especially considering the absence of wrestlers of Khabib's caliber in the light heavyweight division. While Ankalaev is a wrestler, the opinion is that he's not at Khabib's level but still capable enough to take Pereira down and control the fight on the ground. There's speculation that the UFC might consider moving Pereira to the middleweight division instead of having him face Ankalaev in light heavyweight, But for sure the height of Alex Pereira fits the bill in that Division so I think it is still OK for me, but truly his ground game isn't really been tested since he entered the UFC. -snip-
Impressive, yet he has got everything in easy mode. Otherwise how to explain why kickboxer got only strikers and old school on his path to double belts? UFC matchmakers carried him carefully through all high level wrestlers or bjj guy to Adesanya. Was there in UFC history a guy whos way to title belt was so easy and quick? And he wasnt UFC main milking cow? Once I even have a theory, that he was signed only because Adesanya was bored in middleweight. They had a story already. Otherwise why would UFC need another old kickboxer in their roster ? It could be a coincidence, he has the luck to back him up as he has gotten most easiest fights the UFC can throw at him, but if not pure luck then there might be a collaborator that is controlling most of his fights for sure it is big money if the fans of Izzy would see his boogieman in the UFC that would be a great PPV for sure, but the UFC milking cow lost to Sean Strickland and that for sure is not part of the plan for the UFC, which is a solid failure for them and it is an upset for the company for him to lose to Strickland. That would be an awesome fight, but it would be a stupid move to set two rising stars against each other on an early stage. From the UFC perspective, it's way better to let them climb to the top by beating up big names past their primes, let them get all the fame they deserve and then set them up against each other and generate huge revenue. But yeah, my money would go on Rakhmonov.
It could be a deal for Colby Covington to get him back up, but against Shavkat Rakhmonov this is a death sentence to him by the UFC sure this is for being so stubborn during his fight against Leon Edwards, that even Donald Trump didn't like his performance at all, this goes to show that he still not ready against Shavkat Rakhmanov his performance against Leon Edwards was the worst in his career.

Rumours are brewing that Colby Covingtion vs Shavkat Rakhmonov is in the works for the near future. I was expecting Colby to retire after he fought and lost to Leon Edwards. Maybe this could be his way back into the title contention and the same would go for Shavkat, who's been undefeated in the UFC.
I think it's fitting that Colby retires after his loss to Leon Edwards. We all know Colby didn't have the spirit to fight in that match. His trashtalk is also no longer effective where he can only discuss someone's personal problems and I think that's inappropriate and a bad attitude. Especially if you badmouth something personal like your parents or family. Colby is also so old and no longer interesting. I wonder why Shavkat is rumored to be fighting Colby. I think Shavkat would be more worthy of fighting first place or even the champion.

Or we could speculate for Pereira to move to heavyweight division ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Like Bones did. I am sure that Pereira is able to get some extra weight without having harm to speed. Here are some points why it could work well. 1 - Pereira is already aged. Pereira gonna turn 37 in half a year. And 40yo Blachowicz is considered old for division already. Look at guys who are close to him in ranking. Jiri is 31, Ankalaev 31, Krylov 31, Rakic - 31, Walker - 31, Hill - 32. One, maximum two years and Pereira would turn into old for division. 2 - heavyweights are mostly aged guys. Last heavyweight champs were 35+. Many examples when fighters 40+ became champs. 3 - among heavyweights, there are lots of striker. Fighters that rely much on one punch/kick knockout. Pereira and his stone left hand will perfectly fit. 4 - he has a huuuuuge motivation to win heavyweight title and become first fighter who got 3 UFC belts. Will he be able to gain weight and ready for transformation? Of course. UFC history have unique fighters who were competing in 3 or 4 divisions. Like Anthony Johnson, who was welterweight, middleweight, light heavy and heavy ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

I can see what the UFC is trying to do here but after what we saw of Covington in his last fight, I'd rather see a match between two prospects. Rakhmonov vs Chimaev imho. I think Rakhmonov will expose Chim and give him a good beating.
That would be an awesome fight, but it would be a stupid move to set two rising stars against each other on an early stage. From the UFC perspective, it's way better to let them climb to the top by beating up big names past their primes, let them get all the fame they deserve and then set them up against each other and generate huge revenue. But yeah, my money would go on Rakhmonov. But pretty sure Rakhmonov will be eager to fight a vet in Covington. And if Covington agrees with the match up and signs the dotted line, then win or lose I think he'll retire after the fight.
Why would he retire if he was to somehow win with Shavkat? I think Colby will be looking to fight for as long as he can. He's too invested in creating his persona and won't give it up easily. He was calling out Stephen Thompson after his loss to Leon, which shows he's looking for easier opponents to stay relevant for longer. Just a hunch... I mean who would fight Rakhmonov unless the fighter either wants to die or he just doesn't care anymore. Couple that with Covington's poor showing vs Edwards, I think he doesn't care much about fighting in the cage anymore. Not as much as he used to at least. And Covington agreeing and signing the contract could mean that he knows he's just a stepping stone to bring Rakhmonov in title contention. We'll see... But again, would rather watch Rakhmonov vs Chim. :/ But the UFC wouldn't do that unless there was a belt on the line. Check out this match. If you had a bet on Dober this would surely get you off your seat. UFC Free Fight: Dober vs McKinneyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKySfqmW94AWeigh ins in 4 hours folks...

This time he needs to risk his entire career. It's a long shot but if Covington wins against Rakhmonov, I think he will once again be proud to challenge a champ. That's what will happen after. Or not because Rakhmonov will choke the life in him.

Just a hunch... I mean who would fight Rakhmonov unless the fighter either wants to die or he just doesn't care anymore.
Guys like Stephen Thompson obviously ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) , he knew his retirement day is fast approaching and, if that's true that he was still hoping for the title, that would be a fast track to the title fight. Some other guys might as well. I don't think Gilbert Burns would refuse to fight Shavkat if the money was right. He has to defeat someone ranked higher than him to get a chance of fighting for the belt and losing to Rakhmonov won't bring him any shame. Usman might as well. He seems to believe in getting back to the top, so he needs to prove he's the best by not shying away from the challenge. Belal Vs Edwards and Rakhmonov Vs either Usman or Burns is what we're most likely to see. Couple that with Covington's poor showing vs Edwards, I think he doesn't care much about fighting in the cage anymore.
You're writing him off too early. He had a poor performance, but it was against the champion. He's definitely not yet in "I don't give a f**k" stage of his career.

Like Anthony Johnson, who was welterweight, middleweight, light heavy and heavy ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) All we can do now is speculate but for sure he may or eventually will go beyond that division I am saying in the span of this year only do you guys think that Alex Pereira will lose his title in his next fight if Jamahal Hill is available to fight but if not Magomed Ankalaev could be next for sure I really think the title defense is very crucial for Alex Pereira for now if Jamal Hill can not perform then a dangerous Magomed Ankalaev will be Pereira's opponent and that 3 belts if the UFC wants that for Pereira then I think they need to settle down the fight against Magomed Ankalaev, For sure Alex Pereira is great in the Heavyweight but right now the situation for him is really crucial he needs to train in the field that he is not familiar with, and because he is a sniper in the standing, his wrestling capabilities will surely need to take into consideration first. Just a hunch... I mean who would fight Rakhmonov unless the fighter either wants to die or he just doesn't care anymore. Couple that with Covington's poor showing vs Edwards, I think he doesn't care much about fighting in the cage anymore. Not as much as he used to at least.

Link to the vid is in the first page. Your hunch raises intriguing points, particularly regarding Rakhmonov's formidable reputation and the perceived risk in facing him. The correlation with Covington's recent performance against Edwards adds an interesting layer, suggesting a potential shift in his motivation or maybe just a fool trying to impress his fans back, The notion that Covington might view this bout as a stepping stone for Rakhmonov's title contention brings strategic elements into play. Covington's willingness to sign the contract could indeed signify an awareness of the challenging risk, for sure he is willing to die in challenging Shavkat like that, As the fight unfolds, it will be fascinating to see whether these speculations hold true and how the dynamics between these two fighters play out in the context of title contention. The world of mixed martial arts often brings unexpected twists, and this matchup seems poised to offer its fair share of surprises but I highly doubted if he can really do that.

He already did everything he could do in the UFC and even if he came up short from winning a belt at 170, he still gave it his all. No shame in retiring with winning it after Rakhmonov. Anyway here's the weigh results. And we have one miss from Luana Carolina by a couple of pounds.

My pick for the UFC Fight Night: is Dolidze vs. Imavov and right now the Main Event is not available for the Stake.com site, Renato Moicano (1.52) VS Drew Dober (2.55)![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F03%2FvAKSz.jpeg&t=665&c=2QFONnqfxkRyfw) Right now Renato Moicano has some decent striking and wrestling while Drew Dober has great striking for sure he has grappling but I really think he doesn't scramble with certain wrestlers yet and it is more accurate to say that Renato Moicano has the wrestling capacity to defeat Drew Dober in the ground for some reason I really don't trust Drew Dober's Striking so far but Renato Moicano got decent striking for sure and I trust that so for this fight my pick will be Renato Moicano, Randy Brown (1.37) VS Muslim Salikhov (3.10)![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F03%2FvAb32.jpeg&t=665&c=v5gOqRwwdBe4hA) For me, Muslim Salikhov has some great kicks and even has decent striking for sure While Randy Brown boasts superior striking range and a diverse set of tools on the feet, particularly with elbows and knees, the preference leans toward Salikhov in the grappling department for this fight. Despite Brown's proficiency in standing exchanges, Salikhov is considered a more solid grappler, likely to emphasize grappling throughout the match. Salikhov's arsenal includes not only nasty kicks but also a well-rounded ground game, both defensively and offensively. Considering these factors, I think I will go with the advantage on the range, and because Salikhov is getting older my pick is Randy Brown, Aliaskhab Khizriev (1.67) VS Makhmud Muradov (2.22)![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F03%2FvAp9c.jpeg&t=665&c=C0VBoSvwAUDqyQ) Both athletes showcase not only adept wrestling techniques but also impressive striking accuracy. However, a potential concern for Muradov lies in his endurance, raising questions about whether his gas tank can endure until the fight's conclusion. Despite this, considering the overall skill set, my choice for this bout leans towards Makhmud Muradov, With a skillful combination of striking and offensive wrestling, Makhmud Muradov poses a formidable challenge for Aliaskhab Khizriev. The fight promises an intriguing ground battle, given both fighters' proficiency in wrestling, making it a captivating aspect to watch, but for me, I will go with the favorite my pick is Aliaskhab Khizriev,

My Bet and Prediction for the UFC Fight Night: Dolidze vs. Imavov event, I haven't seen the Roman Dolidze VS Nassourdine Imavov fight on the Stake.com button Sportsbet.io you can clearly see their fight, and because I haven't seen the Roman Dolidze VS Nassourdine Imavov and make a bet on that card I will surely go with the other cards Renato Moicano VS Drew DoberThe stake odds for this fight are 1.52 for Renato Moicano and 2.55 for Drew Dober, I think that Renato Moicano had some advantage when it comes to grappling compared to Drew Dober, and even though Drew Dober has power in his striking it is not comparable with the likes of Rafael Fiziev that really hits like a truck and is a fancy good striker but Renato Moicano has some great striking he fights the likes of Chase Hooper, Jai Herbert, Rafael dos Anjos, and Brad Riddell so for sure he also got a decent experience for sure so my pick is Renato Moicano. Randy Brown VS Muslim SalikhovThe stake odds for this fight are 1.37 for Randy Brown and 3.10 for Muslim Salikhov, For this fight Randy Brown has a better range than Salikhov he has a ton of tools on the feet with elbows and knees for sure he is great with his standing but for this fight, I don't really think he is a solid grappler I still prefer Salikhov for sure he will be grappling more than Brown and Salikhov also have those nasty kicks but even though he also got good striking but his ground game for sure are both good at defense and offense so for me My pick is Muslim Salikhov. Aliaskhab Khizriev VS Makhmud MuradovThe stake odds for this fight are 1.67 for Aliaskhab Khizriev and 2.22 for Makhmud Muradov, Right now Makhmud Muradov has great striking and also has offensive wrestling that could be a great asset against Aliaskhab Khizriev, but this is a great fight to watch as both fighters had good wrestling this is the battle on the ground and who has the most better technique with his wrestling will win but both fighters also have good striking and both are accurate aswell, for sure my only concern for Makhmud Muradov if he has a great gas tank that could reach the end of the fight for overall my pick for this fight is Makhmud Muradov. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F03%2FvAtGf.jpeg&t=665&c=r3XDDVqa-Lp1eQ) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F03%2FvAzyZ.jpeg&t=665&c=z5Z0Yub-kx0ODw) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F03%2FvAFK8.jpeg&t=665&c=uq2F-syVWzsWiA)

here are the results for the UFC Dolidze vs. Imavov it was a surprising result Imavov was really dominant during the entire fight against Dolidze Nassourdine Imavov is a beast when it comes to his accuracy with his striking and I was really amazed at total domination the whole fight, now here is the result with my pick and prediction Renato Moicano (1.52) VS Drew Dober (2.55) - WIN![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F04%2FvZxJg.jpeg&t=665&c=lGiAg7_AC44Ofw) Great job for Moicano but it was a close match and he is looking slow what controlled the fight was his takedown and control with those clinches, while Drew Dober is great with the stand-up he was not wise when it comes to the ground fight and Renato Moicano have gotten him with the ground and pound, 2 near submission attempts but for sure Dober just manage to get out from those, but because of those wrestling game Renato Moicano had the edge in this fight but his performance is not a title contender one so if he would fight for the Belt he will likely lose, Randy Brown (1.37) VS Muslim Salikhov (3.10) - WIN![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F04%2Fvn2pI.jpeg&t=665&c=4_hu6kzHT8epMQ) This was a very quick and one-sided fight it was round 1 that Muslim Salkhov found the canvas, it was a fast-paced fight, and because of Randy Brown's reach, height, and speed advantage he won this fight a fast pace, you can already see for Muslim Salikhov that he was too slow in this fight, that maybe his age is really getting on in him, but it was a one-sided fight, Aliaskhab Khizriev (1.67) VS Makhmud Muradov (2.22) - NO CONTEST![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F04%2FvZlmH.jpeg&t=665&c=SN2XboZUZXw_fA) I was frustrated with the result of this fight it was a no contest because of that Eye Poke, for sure it was an accident that Aliaskhab Khizriev landed that eye poke on Makhmud Muradov, Makhmud Muradov was getting ready to move forward or duck from the punch was his eye was hit because his head was moving forward and eventually it was caught into collision with Khizriev's hands,
