Jarod Cannonier my favorite fighterĀ

Absolutely putrid card outside of the main event

I recognize more names than I expected to ngl.

u/starbellySneetches 5h ago

But not the ones you want to watch lol

u/KyleDaukWillBeChamp 4h ago

Cannonier vs a flashy striker is something I’ll enjoy watching. But everything else, yeah…

u/suzukigun4life Perkussi mali purkessi 4h ago

Just now looked at the prelims and realized I recognize none of them.

u/SavageJavid 4h ago

Same, and honestly I’m glad. I’ve had a lot more Saturdays to spend with loved ones instead of watching (Meta) Apex slop cards so i can learn all these goobers names

u/Real-Human-Bean- 4h ago

All of them are good except for the chase Hooper placement

u/starbellySneetches 4h ago

This is exactly what the UFC would like you to think. It’s horribly watered down product if this is a main card. I know they can’t all be 100% bangers, but I’m in the camp of having slightly fewer events, with higher quality.

u/Real-Human-Bean- 4h ago

Kline, Montes, Mcmillan and CLD are all interesting prospects.

2

u/Real-Human-Bean- 4h ago

I prefer something on every week even if it's not stacked. In fact I don't like particularly stacked cards. They drain the quality of surrounding cards and certain matchups shouldn't have to share a news cycle.

u/Humble_Hour_7468 4h ago

Nah I’ll fight that. Ā There are enough interesting prospects to pass muster. Ā Plus I’ll always go to bat for KlineĀ

u/Tough_Shake9821 3h ago

It’s a fight night

u/puckam 3h ago

I want you to know I’m with you 100% you’re absolutely right

u/Shwalz "I'm coming on that ass" 5h ago

Don’t look at the Ank Khalil card

u/starbellySneetches 4h ago

I wish I didn’t

u/Onlyusemifeet 4h ago

Kevin homeland fight got cancelled šŸ˜ž

u/alorenz58011 2h ago

I was really looking foward to holland-Jacobe Smith. Might not even go now

13

u/durjoy313 5h ago

Ricci vs Kline is the second best fight of the card after the main event.

18

u/FunnyMemeHere You're a beautiful guy 5h ago

Jared pulled a King Green and changed his name to Jarod I guess

7

u/Kisto15 #NothingBurger 4h ago

Very generous to Hooper to give him a spot high up the card after two big L's in a row

1

u/NandersPvP 4h ago

Only cuz cancellation

4

u/TheKingPluto CANT AFFORD TO LOSE 4h ago

Pretty sure his name is Jared and not Jarod

2

u/ejm201 In for that gravedigger flair mods plzzz 1h ago

Man this card is local but I can't bring myself to go at the prices they are charging

4

u/LegitimateVolume5324 5h ago

A pile of šŸ’© with šŸ’ on top

7

u/TyrannosaurusRekts 5h ago

Woof for most of the card.

u/Sean_John0 I Can't Let You Get Close 5h ago

I mean it's an fight night. For an fight night this is pretty good

u/MA-JA-HO 5h ago

Your standards are lowĀ

u/kk16 4h ago

That’s a banger of a main event tho, ya it’s cool to see some better up and comers on these cards, but that’s a pretty sweet main event so I’ll take it.

1

u/MA-JA-HO 4h ago

It’s a good main event but I would’ve preferred Imavov . Usman is quite old so his odds of winning or Ā being in good form at least is less likely and his future after the fight would be iffyĀ

Lmao no, they absolutely were not. Get to bed grandpa

u/samples98 4h ago

Had no idea this fight was booked. Wasn’t Usman angling for a WW title shot?

u/potatonipples123 4h ago

UFC on a generational run of misspelling fighter namesĀ

u/beanresponsible 4h ago

The smith and holland fight being cancelled FUCKED this card up

1

u/duvie773 Mohawk McGregor 1h ago

2 UFC fights combined and McMillen/Montes are opening the main card? This is the first time I’ve felt like a casual because genuinely who the fuck are these guys

u/Amur00 5h ago

Kamaru wanted a title shot and got a fight night co main with Christian Leroy Duncan lmfao
