    You guys are welcome to come back and press me:
    HW - Tom Aspinall (Jones will retire)
    LHW - Alex Pereira (Will beat Jamahal Hill)
    MW - Dricus Duplessis (Will beat both Strickland and Chimaev)
    WW - Shavkat Rakhmonov (Will beat Leon, after Leon beats Covington)
    LW - Islam Makhachev (Will beat both Charles and Gaethje)
    FW - Ilia Topuria (Will beat both Volkanovski and Holloway)

  • @UFCt123
    @UFCt123 Před 7 měsíci +1

    My opinion:
    Flyweight : Mokaev
    Bantamweight:Vera
    Featherweight:Ilia
    Lightweight:Islam
    Welterweight:Islam
    Middleweight: Khamzat
    Lightheavyweight:Ankalaev
    Heavyweight:Stipe if he retires then Tom . I think that Stipe will beat Jones twice.

  • @olasarcasm
    @olasarcasm Před 7 měsíci +12

    I think the only one at SW who can beat Weili is Suarez but Weili has spent the last 2 years sharpening her wrestling so I don't know. Weili is my favorite fighter so its hard to pick against her. I don't see Xiaonan getting it done at least but she deserves the shot over Suarez imo and Weili fights twice a year at MOST.

    I’m predicting Izzy comes back and faces someone at ufc 300. He himself said he wants to touch that event because it’s historic and the timing is on pace also. Him coming off of a loss and avenging that after being gone for a whole year just to come back at 300, would be ballistic asf and would sell massive, ufc goes by obv rankings but also what would sell tickets the most so 👀.

      He's had 3 fights in the last 12 months. Imagine being such a hater that you have to make up lies. He'll defend against Oliviera next and then Gaethje in late 2024. No champs barring Volk, Izzy and Usman have been active over the last 5 years. Most only defend the belt twice and some even once. The likes of Colby and Stipe don't even deserve title shots for how inactive they've been. Leon only fights once a year. O'Malley has had one fight in the last year. Jones held up 2 entire divisions and now is denying Aspinall a fair shot in favour of fighting geriatric Stipe cause he doesn't want tough fights.
