@FOXNRL I don't recall this being part of his game in the first few years of his career but for some benign reason he's decided to try become 'an enforcer' when the NRL have largely stamped that out
@TicerJosh @mikerenner_ not sure what measurements you're using but these are their combine weights:
Anderson:253
Watt:252
crosby:255
von:246
Burns:249
@Chris56735582@AlexBehunin with Islam I think he will be more likely to move up because he's not trying to protect this mystical undefeated record and even if he stays around for another 3 or 4 years Usman will still only be 28 or 29 at that time which is prime for most fighters
@Chris56735582@AlexBehunin depends on the landscape, Volk thing was in place already given Volk was the back up fighter for the Oliveira bought and Kamaru and Edwards were already slated to fight. Khabib's crew is tight with Kamaru so I don't think there was a great desire there, with Leon it's different
@9NewsQueensland those guys should be commended, he assaults them repeatedly, hit them with the most vile racist slander and they did not retaliate and even tried to reason with him, alot better people than me, if I were in that situation there's no way I'd be able to have that much restraint
@Stewartsmagooey@9NewsQueensland he literally assaulted them for no other reason but because they were Asian, that's a definition of a hate crime, get fucked with your few drinks rubbish
@Chris56735582@AlexBehunin yep but if Islam moves up in say a year or so and Usman jumps over he'd be signing for big money and be 1 or 2 fights from a title shot. If he signed 2 years ago he'd struggle to get fights like Islam did and like Umar is
@mmamania at the top level yes but a young guy outside the top 15 I think Bellator is a smarter play. Way more movement in Bellator due to tournaments so you can climb quickly and earn more money and if you sign for UFC as a bellator champ you're jumping that queue
@ShaineDupuis@AlexBehunin no one disputes that at the top echelon but the level of the bellator top 5 is well above unranked guys like Paddy. If Usman or AJ signed with the UFC tomorrow they'd be instant contenders and probably 1, Max 2 fights away from a title shot. Guy like Paddy is like 5 or 6 wins off
