I genuinely think he should move up a weight class, because I personally feel all that weight he cut affected him bad, but he’ll probably be and even bigger monster at light heavyweight

How in the fuck are you gonna put DDP in D while Curtis is in C and Strickland is in B. I get you're leaning into being the wild takes on mma niche but dude come on. DDP is way better than most give him credit. Strickland is one dimensional and just walks forward (low fight iq), Curtis just isn't that great he's 15 for a reason, and one good performance from Kelvin does not boost him that much.
Strickland is def better than DDP from what we’ve seen so far. That Brunson fight was such a bad look, while Strickland made Imavov look like shit on a weeks notice. DDP looks sloppy as fuck every single fight.
aye man still thinking back on the fight I’m sad for Alex he was about to get some big boy money but I think he will do better in lhw maybe becoming champion ? I think his ground defense will get way better and he can beat some of those lhws for sure. also I think this fight from izzy will boost his confidence and I feel we are gonna see way more finishes from him especially if they do that dricus fight
Lucas your cool but this is a dogshit list. Vettori beats Cannonier and Strickland. Costa beats all the guys in his tier and Gastelum and Curtis who are above him. Hermansson is somehow below Curtis who he beat. Edmen is the same tier as Imavov and Hermansson even though he got whooped by both. Gastelum somehow above Hermansson. Costa should be atleast B and so should Vettori
Lucas wtf Khamzat fought Holland at middleweight essentially even if that was catchweight at 180 and Holland would be ranked Middleweight if he was going to make that his permanent division , which he said he’s planning to do . You don’t count that ?
Pereira gets caught by izzy after controlling the fight and now he suddenly just gets beaten easily by everyone in middleweight. come on man.. it’s the fight game let’s not overreact
It’s because of his wrestling. Anyone with wrestling ability could just hug and submit pereira. Don’t get me wrong he is one of the best strikers in the ufc but his take down defence is poor. Also the fight was 1-1 if you include the second round, on the score cards Izzy won the first. So you can’t really say pereira was controlling the fight. He was definitely on his way to winning but he wasn’t controlling the fight.

@@minezdcheafzd bro casuals like you who are biased are actually so annoyingly stupid. First of all Izzy won on all three judges score card round 1 which to be honest could have gone either way.

Izzy adjusted his looping shot to a straight caught Alex and knocked him out . Nothing about that is lucky he knew was Alex was going to do and left himself open and Izzy knew how to defend himself and counter nothing lucky about that just cope and get lost
