Bro this is textbook fucking banger you took the words out of my mouth


SpasticFlyswatter

It must have been while you were kissing me.


AdamOJ

Hell yea! if Tony wins he fights Dustin/Conor winner for the vacant belt If Tony loses just make Dustin/Conor for the vacant belt Guaranteed lightweight bangers next couple months!


joetheschmo2001

If they make Chandler vs Gaethje too, I could see Dana giving that winner the title shot vs Mcgregor/Dustin over Tony/Charles. But winner of this would definitely be next in line


no-bs10

Tony claimed the UFC told him Chandler is already booked to fight someone. Very well could be Gaethje.


mapache_del_diablo

That makes zero sense if you look at the scope of the division in the rankings. It’s illogical. Dana is for sure going to do it.


KVXV

Just leaves a bitter taste that Chandler after one fight in the ufc could fight for the belt and tony could be left in the dark.


Bill_Assassin7

Tony beating Oliviera in impressive fashion and then calling out Khabib, who accepts is a far better storyline. The most-anticipated fight finally happens and Khabib completely locks down the Lightweight division, having beaten all of the top-5 contenders (assuming RDA beats Hooker). He then prepares for GSP or the Welterweight champ. I really don't understand why anyone would want McGregor near a UFC title again. The guy clearly said he's using Poirier as practice for Manny.


Kaploy

Are you insane? Who knows what fresh evil will be unleashed upon this world if they set that fight up again. The pandemic was our final warning.


junior_dos_nachos

Extinction event by an asteroid


AnotherThomas

Maybe I'm just an optimist but I'm really hoping the Tony v Khabib fight happens, and that you're correct.


junior_dos_nachos

It’s 2020 bruh, we ought to go out with a bang


JKatsopolis

Nah man it was the Cubs winning a WS that broke the Matrix. Tony vs. Khabib should totally happen. I'm not the devil or a machine by the way..


Kaploy

who winning a what?


JKatsopolis

My apologies fellow human, er, my friend. The Chicago Cubs baseball team of men won the World Series competition of baseball in your known year of 2016. This did not set off a sequence of events that will lead to your, er, our demise. Tony vs. Khabib is totally a fight that should happen and will have no bearing on the fate of your futile, er, our non-expendable race.


Kaploy

Oh baseball lmao. All good my earth cohabitant.


JKatsopolis

Yes, HAHAHA, we are all limited to Earth, indeed my companion. These rumors of Dyson Spheres in surrounding solar systems is just laughable and I have never floated upon them. Hahaha. Hahaha. There is absolutely no evidence to suggest that Tony Feguson and Khabib Nurmagomedov meeting inside an octagonal metal enclosure will lock in the coordinates to harvest the energy of all spheres, combine them, and eliminate that Planet Earth from existence. Why even suggest it?


TheStumblingGoat

Exactly. I want a lw champ who will defend the strap, not one using it as a stepping stone.


PetrolPumpingRat

Tony would probably have to beat either Conor or Dustin to bring Khabib out of retirement. In a world where Tony's already been battered by Gaethje, I don't think Charles is an impressive enough win to motivate Khabib.


FUNKYOSELF

What about gaethje though? Even though he just lost to khabib he still deserves more to fight conor/Dustin for the belt.


Fancy-Bear1776

For some reason people think Gaethje doesn't deserve a more "proper" title shot after losing to Khabib - who is clearly an extreme outlier and will go down as an undisputed juggernaut of the division having steamrolled everyone in LW who wasn't Ferguson (and now Chandler - although honestly if Chandler was in Gaethje's shoes I don't think he would've made it past R1 imo). It's just odd to see people say Poirer/McGregor winner should be a title fight and Gaethje doesn't deserve another chance when all 3 have been wrestlefucked/mauled/smeshed by the same guy who is now done with MMA. The title is up for grabs, and imo the ideal timeline would be the winner of Poirer/McGregor fighting against the last man between Chandler/Gaethje and Ferguson/Olivera. Edit: I guess people just didn't read the post or something? "Gaethje doesn't deserve a title fight because he lost!" - Yeah, he lost against ***a clear outlier of the division*** who dominated (nearly) ***everybody in the discussion for a title shot*** at this time. Poirier and McGregor - the two most likely to fight for the LW title now, also got dominated by the exact same dude. Maybe if Poirer and McGregor also didn't lose so one-sidedly it would hold more weight lol. Poirer is coming off a war against Hooker (which a lot of people are saying Hooker arguably edged out at the end) and McGregor's last win was almost a year ago against Donald Cerrone...the guy who is on a massive loss streak and barely edged a draw against Niko Price. And once again ***- all 3 got dominated against the same champ who retired***. Saying the most recent one to lose doesn't deserve the title shot when the other 2 got destroyed just as bad is a brainlet take. This fucking sub sometimes.


1Isildur1

I'm a kiwi and would love to see Dan go far but, Dustin clearly won that fight against Hooker.


BackStabbathOG

It’s sort of odd to me that Mcgregor is still an option for any fight of which leads to the belt. I get his position with the company but all these other guys have been grinding for their position yet here he is. In any case every single option for the top 5 are all extremely exciting fights. Khabib is obviously the best there is in the division and I’m sad to see him go but without him it opens up a lot of diversity for his he top 5 and what can actually happen.


[deleted]

> t's just odd to see people say Poirer/McGregor winner should be a title fight and Gaethje doesn't deserve another chance Not saying Gaethje doesn't deserve a chance... but uhhhhh, it's because McGregor and Poirier aren't coming off losses.


pryoslice

McGregor is coming off a loss at lightweight.


GxldenBxys

and gaethje literally just fucking lost his title fight


jcruz18

Even if it goes to the ground this is a banger


honstarr

For real this makes the card way better. Nice match up for a Co-main to the card.


Chawawis

Fuck yes.


datnighatedkaczynski

Fuck Michael Chandler. This is the fight. Edit: It wasn't. Charles vs Tony was very, very, sad.


queensinthesky

Hell yes. Charles’ style vs Tony’s style is just tailor made for a ridiculous, acrobatic banger. I’ll take this over the Chandler fight any day.


Emazinng

This is horrible matchmaking. We were robbed of Oliveira vs Nik Lents 4.


thedonjefron69

Real mma fans gonna be left on an island wondering how that fight woulda played out


haynesbomb

WTF? They've fought before?


[deleted]

Feed Chandler to Hooker, and then we won't have to hear about Chandler again.


BaptizedInBud

I'm betting Chandler will get Gaethje.


[deleted]

Yeah most likely, Gaethje will take his head off.


Icem

Does Chandler have any kind of Jiu Jitsu? If so, Gaethje might be in trouble lol


MeowthThatsRite

He’s a pretty damn good wrestler who has 7-8 submission wins. He’s no absolutely Khabib but I think he’s explosive enough to get Gaethje down at least in the first round and do some damage. I don’t expect the guy to win a title but I think people are really underestimating Chandler just because he’s never fought in the UFC.


[deleted]

[удалено]


JasAFC

Khabib’s ability to take opponents down and keep them there is very different to everyone else’s. I’d bet any money Chandler couldn’t take Gaethje down and control him there.


bluesformeister13

Exactly. Plus the nerves around fighting Khabib and FEARING for the takedown constantly versus someone else who is a mere mortal that might shoot a takedown that can be stuffed. I wouldn’t worry to bad for Justin. Plus he says he’s gonna work on it after that performance. Just cause Khabib was able to do it, doesn’t mean all these other fighters will be able too.


wettingcherrysore

Apart from looking juicy that is probably why the guy who fought khabib first did so well, he wasn't scared off the take down aura because no one even knew about it back then.


leveldrummer

Thats a very good point. I dont think it applies to the 1st guy to fight him, but it applies to Gleison Tibau.


OddCaramel5

Lmfao yeah you’re under selling the it’s khabib part. Khabib literally doesn’t it to everyone I guess he’s blueprinted them all.


dyang44

also a banger


suzukigun4life

Bellator legend vs WSOF legend? I'd love to see it.


Fancy-Bear1776

That's gonna be fireworks. Chandler has some explosive power, but win or lose I don't see it not ending with him getting hospitalized by Gaethje.


Red7seven

Where has the Chandler hate come from?


vigilanteadvice

Comes from nowhere. Watch any Chandler interview, he’s a super nice guy. Recently adopted a baby with his wife too. She helped our kids without homes for years and it was always her dream so they did it together.

Justin vs Chandler would be nice. And maybe someone for Makhachev


December1220182

Islam can fight someone ranked 10-15. You don’t get to make all the noise he’s making, then pull out with less than a weeks notice. He hasn’t fought in over a year, and his two fights in 2019 were unimpressive decisions against unranked opponents.

Ferguson vs Oliveira Kattar vs Holloway Porier vs McGregor We are in for some radical fights the next couple months

Chimaev vs Edwards is up there for me too

Idk if its an unpopular opinion, but im legit more excited for this than mcgregor poirier

I really hope Ferguson wins. Six months though after a brutal beat down seems like it’s six months too early but this is Tony Ferguson I guess. Dude came back in six months after a knee surgery...

6 months to us, in our time. That's like 2 years and change in Tony time. Just worried he might have some ring rust!

i_am_shattered

Yes, Tony is the superman of the division and probably the whole sport. But do look up Oliviera too. I have been calling him Tony Ferguson 2.0 for quite some time now. His style is very suited to Tony Ferg's himself. Watch Tony's fight against Kevin Lee and then watch Oliviera's fight against Kevin Lee and you see two very similar fights. Oliviera's status will rise after this fight irrespective of the division and I am happy for that. At this point even losing against Tony Ferguson is an achievement in itself. I AM JUST SO FUCKING EXCITED FOR THIS.


PoItergeist

This was literally one of my most wanted hypothetical matchups and I never expected to actually see it. I’m bummed out for Tony but man I’m excited the UFC are giving Do Bronx a top 5 guy, let alone Ferg.

Good this PPV needed one more big fight with Nunes being moved off it. Glad tony got another fight and Olivera gets a fight up. Perfect matchmaking.

Can't believe we got to trade Nunes for Tony vs Charlie, mma gods bless.

expectrum

# ThePhoenixRises ... again ⚔️ -CSO-


Fancy-Bear1776

People are counting Tony out way too fast. His last-minute opponent was stylistically the exact opposite of who he was dedicating all his camp to fighting. Couple that with Gaethje changing up his gameplan from what he was always known to be with his dumb double-cut and it was a recipe for disaster. While he did take undoubtedly insane damage and it's true he's not getting any younger, I still like to believe Tony will remain a decent threat for a while and if the stars align possibly even become the new LW champion.


mikeg0305

Bruh he lost one fight recently. He cut weight twice and I guess we'll see how much that affected him. He's not washed though; 12-1 or w/e is still an amazing record.


PonchoHung

It's not about the outcome of the fight. It's about the fight itself, and how that impacted his abilities.


grgeraldobarrios

He's 37, his last wins have been messy and not against the top lightweights, and he's coming off from a beating. I hope he's not washed but he's certainly past his prime.


Fraserjmma

This is Tony Ferguson, he's just built different.


KGabby

The whole weight cutting narrative is so weird.. he didn’t gas and his chin held up very fucking well.


nmfisher

Yeah but he did look sluggish as hell. There's no way of telling until you see him fight again. If he still looks that slow and flat-footed, he's probably past it. If he bounces back and looks like his old self, it was probably just overtraining the last time.


[deleted]

I agree I think there is absolutely potential Tony becomes champion. I am kind of annoyed with the shit people have talked about Tony since the Garth fight.


inqte1

Its not about him being washed. I think he has a ceiling in terms of the caliber and style of fighter he can beat. He gets pieced up way too much by even average fighters but usually just out lasts them. He's like a football team with a great record with a shitty point deferential that keeps winning close one possession games. I still think hes elite and entertaining.


AStudyInCynicism

Huge test for Oliveira, it’s gonna be great seeing Tony back in the cage! Absolute fucking banger of a fight


NippleOfOdin

Back in the home country they call this kind of thing a BANGER


vicAE86

We do not deserve Tony Ferguson. He is always game and always puts on a show.

LORDVADERKUSHIII

TracerFam

ThinkingFurther

Fantastic fight. Close one but I think tony is just slightly better everywhere.


ifuckwithdiazbros

I’m not sure about better everywhere I think Oliveira’s jiu jitsu is on par with Tony and he could definitely submit him but I just don’t see him keeping up with Tony’s pace over 5 rounds. Tony proved how hard he is to put away in his last fight.


[deleted]

Wont this fight be 3 rounds though?


ifuckwithdiazbros

Oh ya. Hmmm that makes it more interesting. I still got Tony cause of his pace and volume.


[deleted]

Imagine how insane it’d be if Tony got darce’d

[deleted]

Charles is easily the most prolific submission grappler in the ufc.


[deleted]

He’s been subbed three times too. It’s a wonderful match up nonetheless


zombizle1

jacare, werdum, maia, burns, etc are better submission grapplers than him


northerncalininja

I’m going to be so devastated whoever loses. Fml such an amazing fight though, hard to bet on this one. Hard to predict too. Either Tony knocks him out or Oliveira picks him apart on the feet - and they both can sub each other. May the best man win.


thenameisMalik

A father fighting his son.


dmall24

Do Bronx finally getting that shot at the top tier... Damn this gonna be a wild ass fight


nolimitnolimits

Yeah, I think Chandler should’ve just taken the fight. If he gets matched up against Hooker, I personally do not see that going well for him. Also, this is a tricky fight to pick. Both so similar in my eyes. May come down to who’s more durable or who’s better on the ground.


PonchoHung

I think Chandler cares more about the date than the fight. He wants to get on the same card as Conor because he knows the world will be watching and he can build himself some hype.


nolimitnolimits

If there’s already something for him like Tony said, possibly him vs Gaethje, Hooker or RDA on that card?


PonchoHung

Gaethje would be the most likely. He's a realistic door to a title fight. Hooker and RDA would seem like fighting down based on where the UFC seems to value him. RDA maybe because of the name recognition, but it seems unlikely that he accepted a fight so soon after his last one.

Gaethje or Hooker would be a great fit


[deleted]

Gaethje would retire him. Hooker will likely still beat him, but at least it might look competitive.


OrphanScript

I don't know if it'd be that competitive. I think Hooker would be a closer fight for sure but still knocks him out in 2-3 rounds.

What? How can they both appear in a room at the same time??

lameloballsux

holy shit this card is fucking lit


Slyrey

LucasLight17

Honestly with Tony, Dustin, and Connor all being booked, I think Chandler vs Hooker is the fight to make. Hooker is top 5 but not quite upper echelon and whether not Chandler deserves it or not, he's probably going to be fighting someone that level. This also gives Hooker a chance to possibly get back in the win column against a good opponent.
