If you watch mma and judge fights by “significant strikes” then you don’t know how to score fights Significant strikes leave out a significant amount of context. You can land less than someone and land way better Yan clearly beat Merab. Showed he is superior to Merab. Cry more

I am pussy AF btw. Look how crazy I was talking about Nav just to not even go over 2U on this.

The systematic discrimination & oppression of Muslim, Dagestani & Caucasus fighters in the UFC is impossible to ignore at this point Unbeaten UFC streaks before first title shots: Islam Makhachev - 10 Magomed Ankalaev - 11 Khamzat Chimaev - 8 Belal Muhammad - 10 Merab Dvalishvili - 10 Movsar Evloev - 10 (20-0 overall, FINALLY getting his title shot) Meanwhile, UFC favorites get title shots: Alex Pereira - After just 3 UFC wins Diego Lopes - After just 5 UFC wins Sean Strickland - 3 undeserved title shots, including 2x off 1-fight winning streak Sean O’Malley - Immediate title rematch coming off a loss Colby Covington - 3rd title shot off 1 win Stipe Miocic - Title shot coming off a loss Islam Makhachev would probably have 20 title defenses by now if he were an industry plant like Alex Pereira, who was handed a title shot after just 3 UFC wins, or Diego Lopes, who got one after 5 Instead, Islam had to jump through hoops and go on a 10-fight UFC winning streak because of the Dagestani oppression It’s truly amazing what he’s been able to achieve with the deck stacked against him Meanwhile, the UFC lets fighters go despite unbeaten UFC records: Farid Basharat - 16-0 (7-0 UFC) Muhammad Mokaev - 13-0 (7-0 UFC) Rinat Fakhretdinov - 24-2-1 (6-0-1 UFC) Yet the UFC has kept fighters through massive losing streaks: Tai Tuivasa - 8 straight losses Gerald Meerschaert - 6 straight losses Cody Brundage - 3 straight losses before his latest win Sedriques Dumas - Winless in 5 fights (4 losses, 1 NC) At what point do we stop pretending this is all a coincidence? I’m starting to notice a trend The UFC actively pushes certain fighters while holding others to completely different standards It’s not about having the best fighters. It’s about having the fighters the UFC wants to promote Does anybody really think it’s just a coincidence that Ari Emanuel stormed out of the arena after Belal Muhammad won the UFC welterweight title?
