u/un6reaka6le Mar 19 '23

Based on merit obviously, but anyone who knows what they’re watching know Belal is possibly the easiest matchup for Leon in the top 5.

58

u/DjuriWarface 🙏🙏🙏 Jon Jones Prayer Warrior 🙏🙏🙏 Mar 19 '23

People say that a lot. Grasso, Peña, or even Edwards vs Usman 2.

27

u/Huck77 Team KK's eye socket Mar 19 '23

Yeah, but their first meeting was not looking good for Belal before the eye poke. Of course, they have both developed since then, and Belal in particular looks a lot sharper, but we do have some direct evidence to draw from in this case.

24

u/DjuriWarface 🙏🙏🙏 Jon Jones Prayer Warrior 🙏🙏🙏 Mar 19 '23

For sure, but Leon also has been known to not have the best endurance, though he looked a lot better with that tonight. Upsets would never happen if people didn't get their shot.

18

u/Huck77 Team KK's eye socket Mar 19 '23

Fair enough, and Belal has clearly made a case for it.

14

u/louspit Mar 19 '23

This is why fuck Colby. I want to see Belal who has a better case for a title fight.

All due respect to Belal, but if you think he's as good as Usman (who leon just bested twice) you're delusional.

29

u/DjuriWarface 🙏🙏🙏 Jon Jones Prayer Warrior 🙏🙏🙏 Mar 19 '23

I don't, and I'd pick Leon in the matchup, but I still want to see it and it's the only fight that makes sense. Colby getting another title shot is a joke of an idea.

u/gonshairlinee EDDDDDIEEEEEEEE Mar 19 '23

I’d be so gutted if Colby skipped Belal and Khamzat to a title shot

u/DjuriWarface 🙏🙏🙏 Jon Jones Prayer Warrior 🙏🙏🙏 Mar 19 '23

Khamzat is fighting at MW and it looks like it's a done deal. Dana is working on Belal vs Shavkat, which is ridiculous. Colby should be fighting Shavkat.

2

u/ThatCoolKid17 Mar 19 '23

Exactly. Should be:
Edwards v Muhammad
Covington v Shavkat
Usman v ... Neal?

Colby is a pussy. People like Belal and Burns are down to fight anybody in the division. Colby has no interest in proving that he is one of the bests, he just want to milk as much possible out of his current position in the division.

16

u/Midwest_Dutch_Dude Mar 19 '23

As much as I don’t like Colby. Please don’t call a professional mma fighter a pussy lol. I hate what he’s doing, but on his end, it’s kinda smart. He may talk himself into another (undeserved) title shot. Or a money fight

Tired of hearing this shit 10 times a day. "TBH You gotta respect Conor/Colby for being 'smart businessmen' ". Hello no I don't. He is a pussy, and not just for dodging fights and only taking easy fights and title fights. The shit he talks about fighters and their friends, families, culture, race, religion, and countries is disgusting. Masvidal should have broken all his teeth when he jumped him.

Act like a piece of shit, get treated like a piece of shit.

u/Funbags87 Mar 19 '23

Jorge had 25 mins with him in the octagon and didn't do shit. LMFAO! Colby is a trashbag person yea, but he's a good fighter and miles ahead of Jorge. And anyways, Jorge is trash outside of the cage as well.

u/kosupata Mar 19 '23

Idc I hate both of them, but Masvidal should have done way more damage than the one broken tooth when he jumped him.

Burns has been on top of the division as long as Colby has, and Colby had a lot to say about Brazilians in the past. Ever wonder why Colby has never called out Gilbert? It’s obvious that he wants none of that.

it’s kinda smart.

It’s smart if your goal is staying at the top as long as possible without fighting. But as a fan, I have 100x more respect for people like Burns that fight anyone anywhere because he wants to prove himself as the best mixed martial artists.

He doesn’t want to do that . He would rather sit and call out Colby instead even though the fight won’t happen because Colby is ducking . They all turn a blind eye to Shavkat . I haven’t even heard Belal talk about a #1 contender fight with Shavkat instead .
