      Then we find out after the fight that Leon has a lengthy criminal record and actually was resisting and attacked Colby first, but when Colby defended himself, Leon cried "racism" and "brutality."
      Later that day, on the news and on social media, innocent Colby was painted as a bad guy while Leon was praised as a hero.

      this is a joke right? this is comment bait for idiots like me right? belal is on a nine fight win streak, has been passed over in favour of colby/leon, you want him to take out the divisions boogyman AND the divisions former (arguably most dominant) champion before you'd even consider him being a contender?
      yea he's boring as all hell, no-ones gonna disagree with that, but really? thats what it'd take for him to deserve a title shot in your eyes?

    Ppl underestimate Jiri every time he fights and it’s amazing to see him pull of victories no matter how bad he’s down in a fight. The dude will handle Alex like he did with Dominick Reyes. Speaking of Reyes, is he still with the UFC? I feel so bad for him being cheated out of the jones win like Alexander Gustafson.

      Reyes was punching bag after his fight with Jones and Jiri got slapped around by 40+ year old Glover. He is getting brutally KO'd. Alex was playing it safe last time with Jan because he didn't wanna lose his debut in LHW or get Ko'd again but this time he will make a statement. Just watch. I like both fighters but Jiri is even more reckless than Alex and will pay for it.

    I think Belal deserves a title shot, but first I want to see him fight Shavkat, then do his due diligence by fighting JDM, then maybe Usman. If that goes well then maybe he can rematch Burns because Burns was hurt early. If he doesn’t prove himself by this point, he should fight the loser of Edwards/Covington. If it goes to decision then there should be a rematch. Then, and only then, I think Belal deserves a title shot.

  • @OfficialHakureiReimu
    @OfficialHakureiReimu Před 8 měsíci +47

    If Jiri comes back at the same level he was before the injury, it's a dangerous fight for Alex.
    Alex gets hit pretty easily and I don't think his reflexes are great imo, he seems to be pretty vulnerable against aggressive strikers who like to rush in occasionally -- this is how he got stung by both Adesanya and Jan on multiple occasions; against Adesanya, specifically, in their first fight, there were a few moments where Adesanya would lunge in and Pereira would eat clean shots to the head while displaying zero defense. Against Jan, he got hit by the same sequence multiple times before finally adapting. I really think his reflexes aren't great - if these two examples aren't good enough for you, I urge you to watch a few of his kickboxing fights that he lost (some of them by knockout), he has the habit of getting hit by strikes he seemingly doesn't even see coming.
    Against Jiri, who strikes from unpredictable angles and likes to rush in randomly, Pereira is at risk of getting knocked out at any point during the fight; and if you doubt Jiri's ability to do that, just rewatch his fight against Oezdemir, he put him out cold with a right hand after stunning him badly with a head kick that came out of nowhere; and Oezdemir usually has GREAT defense.
    This is actually a 50/50 fight, despite what some will tell you.
