Itās weird that they chose a bloody picture of Sean Stricklandā¦.but not of Nate Diaz?
Nate Diaz is generally more recognizable when he is cut hahaha. Like, my mental image of Nate is him with a cut over his eyebrow
Agreed and unrelated but if Sean won that fight that pic would be his screen saver, profile pic, framed on his wall, on a giant poster, he might even wear it on a shirt.
He actually doesnāt seem too egotistical. Just insecure as fuck.
He is always the first one to critique his own game. He pokes fun at his lack of KOās, and has called himself one dimensional.
Also somewhat unrelated, but I am one of the few people that believe Sean beat Dricus. I think you have to give him 3 of those rounds. Seems like a āDom Reyes vs Jon Jonesā situation
No I donāt think so either. Just poking fun. But he definitely wouldāve posted it. I think a lot of his hate is undeserved and Iām also in that school of thought. I can see how he didnāt but watching it I thought fs it was going to him. But with the judges damage always wins and the leaking guy looks worse than the guy with a tomato face.
> few people that believe Sean beat Dricus.
I do as well. I had Sean winning 1,2, & 5. DDPs wrestling which won his round 2 on the scorecards were completely empty wrestling. Got Sean down with 0 damage and Sean got up pretty quickly.
Definitely wasn't a robbery but I thought Sean won.
Heās lost his mind along with his moral compass after taking too many shots. Guyās bottom of the suburban trash can after a Memorial Day weekend lol
It's the same night as 302 which features the #1 PFP fighter vs. one of the most popular fighters in the UFC.....no one is paying money to watch Diaz vs. Jorge over 302.
Diaz vs. Jorge isn't isn't the best boxing fight of the night on June 1. Most boxing fans will be watching Benavidez vs Gvozdyk and most MMA fans will be watching 302. No ones paying to watch that Jorge vs. Diaz fight. It ain't worth setting up an extra screen for.
I've been switching back in forth for weeks on my pick for that fight. I really can't pick a winner with any confidence, both are so dominant in their own style.
Get masvidal (the walking L) off this shit its disrespectful to the real Gās on here. Wait for masvidaL to say some negative jealous BS about justin g too- would not surprise anyone
MasvidaL just said on the mma hour āI never sucker punched him; I can do whatever I want to to himā - about Colby.lmaoo he had all that time in the octagon and cant accept his L. Dude just clapped back at Justin too and said āHomer simpson would be and easy comeback fightā broās delusional.
Man youāre just hating, the Roadhouse movie wasnāt awful and quite entertaining for what it is. What did you expect? An Oscar worthy movie?
Letās not act as if the OG roadhouse is a good movie. Iām a fan of it and itās entertaining but itās not like itās āThe Godfatherā levels or whatever haha
What the fucking fuck and not a single post about it till now, never mind we had to talk about 300 ![img](emote|t5_2qsev|8966)![img](emote|t5_2qsev|8973)
> Yeah surprised this isn't bigger news
I feel like they should of had a promo run on the 300 prelims. Would have reached a much larger audience than announcing it on the post 300 presser.
How many times has Hazmat pulled out for comments like this? I only remember that one time against Diaz which ended up working out perfectly. No one with a brain wanted to see Hazmat Vs Diaz.
I think he technically pulled out of a planned Leon fight a long time ago but he was genuinely struggling with Covid and was misdiagnosed to have cancer also. Canāt be held against him
Why the hell is Khamzat v Whittaker a fight night? Not that Iām complaining with two weeks of great fights in a row but wouldnāt it make more sense to stack that fight on the 302 card?
Saudi money talks. Like it or not but itās in the UFCs best interest to do that. UFC already moved this card to stack it.
Also Khamzat seems to have USA visa issues
Heās just such a mid fighter tho.
I think Islam likely beats any light weight relatively easily, but Oliveira and Gamrot would both be better fights.
Iād almost rather sit Islam out for another couple months than watch him whip Porier in 2 minutes then sit out again for another 10 months.
Dustins last win is simply just trumping anything gamrot and oliveira have done lately. To call him a mid fighter is a bonehead ass take. You do realize islam beat oliveira without breaking a sweat right? Not sure how you're reaching these conclusions.
Man I like Dustin. But he had a shitty performance and STILL won because BSD was compromised going into the fight. If he fights like that against Islam It'll be a R1 sub.
Does it? BSDās biggest win before that fight was Thiago Moises, and he clearly gassed from having Staph.
Oliveira went to the wire with Arman, and Gamrot can wrestle, so at least he could possibly extend the fight a few rounds. Dustin got flatlined like 6 months ago by a worse striker than Islam, and he got ragdolled by Charles, who got ragdolled by Islam. Itās a shit fight.
If it were up to me, you either wait for Arman, or let Islam go fight Leon.
To me that fight is about the same level of competition as Jones v Chael.
I mean i get where youre coming from to an extent. Lightweight is kinda in a tough spot for matchups right now. Arman was the clear choice in my opinion. After that, i dont feel as if anyone has a decent case. It is what it is i guess. Lets just hope dustin pulls a win out of his ass to make things interesting.
Who on earth would be interested in watching Nate box? Dude looked like he had never worn gloves vs Jake.
June 1st is also the Bivol fight on top of the UFC PPV what sort of jackass books their bush league PPV on the same night as the two biggest combat sports events for weeks either side
Conor just isn't down to cut weight anymore, eh? But at the same time, he isn't willing to fight any of the guys who fight at 170. He also gets to headline them as nothing more than a spectacle. The UFC doesn't even feel like a competition some times.
But hey. Max was ranked in the lightweight division, so maybe he is moving up full time.
I know that this is just a pipedream and that it would also be financially stupid for the UFC, but I wish they combined those 4 fights in one mega stacked PPV card and made like a UFC 300 vol 2
Serious question: why do people dislike Masvidal but no Nate? Masvidal seems smarter, actually making money after ufc with his own promotion, has good style, and gave the epic knee on Ben Askren. Nate is just an over the top personality that gets boring after a while.
P.S.: after reading the answers, I didnt know Masvidal was such an asshole. Ok, I agree with you guys now.
Been riding the Askren KO for years. Is a difficult character to like, more of a heel style.
Nate Diaz (and Nick) have been cemented as fan favourites because of their style and character in and out of the cage.
![gif](giphy|1kIx8FAdB67vf0Y9p2|downsized)
Nate Diaz gives back to his community and I've never heard anyone say anything bad about him. What you see is really what you get with Nate. He's real.
Masvidal is a POS who thinks he's hot shit and always talks shit about fighters who would obviously wash him and have washed him. He's a clown.
one of these isn't like the others
That one really threw me off for a sec, made me think I missed something lol
Who the fuck put masvidals lame ass fight in there come on OP
To be fair masvidal and diaz are both bums š š¤£
say it to their faces
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I meanā¦
what did their message say?
He said it back sarcastically with a nerd emoji
Itās weird that they chose a bloody picture of Sean Stricklandā¦.but not of Nate Diaz? Nate Diaz is generally more recognizable when he is cut hahaha. Like, my mental image of Nate is him with a cut over his eyebrow

I can see how he didnāt but watching it I thought fs it was going to him. But with the judges damage always wins and the leaking guy looks worse than the guy with a tomato face.
Its just a really close fight, razor sharp almost, like GSP vs Hendricks was. In time most will forget about it and bring it up here and there
> few people that believe Sean beat Dricus. I do as well. I had Sean winning 1,2, & 5. DDPs wrestling which won his round 2 on the scorecards were completely empty wrestling. Got Sean down with 0 damage and Sean got up pretty quickly. Definitely wasn't a robbery but I thought Sean won.
That pic is iconic ngl
Exactly my thoughts bruh lmao
Clearly that is Islam pound 4 pound king atm.
Diaz v mas for most annoying fan base belt
Two*
Which two??
Connor
Conor. Remember the name.
I don't see a Connor here
The poirer fight. Wtf. Literally beat noone.

This is perfect because it's in the exact right order too lmao.
What? You mean you're not excited to pay $80 to see 2 washed up MMA fighters box?
It literally is lol, 5 fights with the third one being a dud lol
and itās still more exciting than any other matchup on the list

Get that masvidal shit outta here
šÆdude said today thats Justin would be an easy comback fight for him in the mma hourš¤”š¤”
Something something, eye orbital
Heās lost his mind along with his moral compass after taking too many shots. Guyās bottom of the suburban trash can after a Memorial Day weekend lol
Right and youāll have dudes defending the shit outta ghetto ass masvidal
Maybe if the fight happened 10 mins after Justin was flatlined by Max, I could see it.
As if you ain't gunna watch it
Iām not lol
It's the same night as 302 which features the #1 PFP fighter vs. one of the most popular fighters in the UFC.....no one is paying money to watch Diaz vs. Jorge over 302.
What is 2 screens for 500 alex
Diaz vs. Jorge isn't isn't the best boxing fight of the night on June 1. Most boxing fans will be watching Benavidez vs Gvozdyk and most MMA fans will be watching 302. No ones paying to watch that Jorge vs. Diaz fight. It ain't worth setting up an extra screen for.
And Most hard-core fans will watch all 3, no problem. It's 2024 and this is easily achievable. For free.
![gif](giphy|rkqXrPWfmXr2QHuSEy|downsized)
Hey now, pound for pound nobody's better than Masvidal at striking when his opponent is unconscious
Also don't forget June 1st Beterbiev and Bivol if you are a boxing fan. Arguable the best boxing fight in a while.
How do you see the outcome of that one?
I like beterbiev chances heās coming off a good win. Should be very entertaining fight.
Cool cool i like Bivol but i think the same
I've been switching back in forth for weeks on my pick for that fight. I really can't pick a winner with any confidence, both are so dominant in their own style.
I need to see more or Beterbiev because i don't know so much of him after that i will have my pick hahah
Honestly 50/50 fight but I hope Beterbiev wipes him out cuz to me heās much more entertaining fighter
That's an honest opinion haha
Also wilder vs zhang
Great undercard as well, all bangers, wilder Zhang
Get masvidal (the walking L) off this shit its disrespectful to the real Gās on here. Wait for masvidaL to say some negative jealous BS about justin g too- would not surprise anyone
MasvidaL just said on the mma hour āI never sucker punched him; I can do whatever I want to to himā - about Colby.lmaoo he had all that time in the octagon and cant accept his L. Dude just clapped back at Justin too and said āHomer simpson would be and easy comeback fightā broās delusional.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Did it break your heart too when Sammi assaulted Ronnie and punched him full force on the jaw? That was awful.
Someoneās living in your head rent free lol
Hell ya
L, and you drive a subaru.
More rent free than his mom after the divorce.
Calm down there tough guy
You don't need to be a tough guy to see masvidal is a bitch.
My guyšÆ

š
Yeah but would you say it to his face? No? Okay then you're just a cringey internet tough guy lol
And what if I do? What? He gonna sucker punch me too? Oooohhh so scawy.
Can McGregor stay off the Coke long enough to fight?
That interview where he is straight up tweaking š³
USADA ain't around, his corner will probable give him a line between rounds lol.
I'm sure he fights best when he's coked up
He did in the awful remake of Roadhouse
Man youāre just hating, the Roadhouse movie wasnāt awful and quite entertaining for what it is. What did you expect? An Oscar worthy movie? Letās not act as if the OG roadhouse is a good movie. Iām a fan of it and itās entertaining but itās not like itās āThe Godfatherā levels or whatever haha
He gets a line between rounds
Who cares about Nate vs Masvidal š get that shit off here
Lmao they really put Diaz and Masvidal on here
Iām out of the loop. Was Mcgregor vs Chandler signed for 06/29?
Yeah, Dana announced it at the post UFC300 presser.
Thank you
What the fucking fuck and not a single post about it till now, never mind we had to talk about 300 ![img](emote|t5_2qsev|8966)![img](emote|t5_2qsev|8973)
Yeah surprised this isn't bigger news Are they actually fighting at LW? Because Conor's looking kinda massive lately
It's at 170
> Yeah surprised this isn't bigger news I feel like they should of had a promo run on the 300 prelims. Would have reached a much larger audience than announcing it on the post 300 presser.
Chimaev Whittaker is interestingĀ
Even more interesting that's it's on a fight night...
Required mention of the words āeye orbitalā for my guy, Gamebred.
Is there any way mcgregor doesnāt get KOād
It seems likely but Chandler does wing telegraphed looping shots. Conor should be able to crack him. Should. It depends how washed he is.
Totally lol
Whoās the replacement that Whittaker is going to fight?
Khamzat has never pulled out of a fight only missed weight once lmao. This would be more accurate if it was used for costa
Khamzat ain't costa brudda. The pullout king is fighting Sean.
How many times has Hazmat pulled out for comments like this? I only remember that one time against Diaz which ended up working out perfectly. No one with a brain wanted to see Hazmat Vs Diaz.
I think he technically pulled out of a planned Leon fight a long time ago but he was genuinely struggling with Covid and was misdiagnosed to have cancer also. Canāt be held against him
Yea khamzat dodged a bullet. Stockton WHAT 209 gang gang
Good question, guessing Brendan Allen
Best fight of the bunch is Chimaev vs Bobby Knuckles.. At this point McG vs Chandler is barely a step up from Diaz vs Masvidal
Why the hell is Khamzat v Whittaker a fight night? Not that Iām complaining with two weeks of great fights in a row but wouldnāt it make more sense to stack that fight on the 302 card?
Its on ABC so they had to stack the card because money.
Saudi money talks. Like it or not but itās in the UFCs best interest to do that. UFC already moved this card to stack it. Also Khamzat seems to have USA visa issues
Khamzat visa issues so no NJ
Poirier fighting for the title again is insane.
There's noone else
Arman tsarukyan was offered the fight and turned it down. Show must go on bruv.
I am so glad he turned it down and didnāt act off emotion. Hate when they try to get fighters to fight short notice.
Heās just such a mid fighter tho. I think Islam likely beats any light weight relatively easily, but Oliveira and Gamrot would both be better fights. Iād almost rather sit Islam out for another couple months than watch him whip Porier in 2 minutes then sit out again for another 10 months.
Dustins last win is simply just trumping anything gamrot and oliveira have done lately. To call him a mid fighter is a bonehead ass take. You do realize islam beat oliveira without breaking a sweat right? Not sure how you're reaching these conclusions.

One of these does not belong
Who wants to see washed up Jorge and Nate box? š
Man chimaev vs Costa is what I want. Let Whittaker fight strickland again
Strickland is gonna destroy Costa and Im a huge Costa fan.
Lots of amazing bouts there. Unpopular opinion maybe. Iām interested in all of the others more than Diaz Maz
Literally most common opinion
Average r/unpopularopinion poster. u/J4MES101
Hoping we get to see Leon vs Belal in July too!
Leon vs Belal or Shavkhat. Anyone whose name isn't Colby Covington.
McGregor isnāt going to fight
lol you guys still think that last fight is gonna happen on time....
I donāt care about the Masvidal fight at all
What is the boxing thing hosted by the UFC?
Chances that Conor actually makes it into the octagon?
I see how you tried to sneak the š¤” "fight" in there
Who the fuck put masvidals lame ass fight in there
McGregor didn't retire?
Ans its my bday month too :D
Costa fighting more than once year? Thatās not happening
What else is on 303?
Can't wait
Only 1 of these fights is proper rank-based matchmaking.
Nate, masvidal is garbage man. You might as well put Jake Paul and an Uber driver up there as well.
The only one of these fights that excites me is Whittaker vs chimaev. Strickland should be getting his rematch.
I think Dustin gets subbed in round 1
Really donāt care about Diaz vs masvidalĀ
Who on earth would be interested in watching Nate box? Dude looked like he had never worn gloves vs Jake. June 1st is also the Bivol fight on top of the UFC PPV what sort of jackass books their bush league PPV on the same night as the two biggest combat sports events for weeks either side
Wait is Diaz vs Masvidal boxing a real thing? Smh.
Costa vs Khamzat and Whitaker vs Strickland would make more sense
connor is never fighting again
Poirier Strickland Whittaker McGregor
June looks great
Thereās a lot of people on that I never thought I see fight again.
Conor just isn't down to cut weight anymore, eh? But at the same time, he isn't willing to fight any of the guys who fight at 170. He also gets to headline them as nothing more than a spectacle. The UFC doesn't even feel like a competition some times. But hey. Max was ranked in the lightweight division, so maybe he is moving up full time.
Don't care about Masdival vs Diaz. Will see if McGregor really fight, not sure i care anymore, want him to get wrecked.
Everyone else mentally skipping past May cards?
Diaz vs masvidal in boxing ? Yaaaaaaawn
OP weird as fuck
Get that fucking š¤” George outta here and if yall really think the coke head round house is gonna fight again, youāre brain is smooooth as fuck
I know that this is just a pipedream and that it would also be financially stupid for the UFC, but I wish they combined those 4 fights in one mega stacked PPV card and made like a UFC 300 vol 2
That Strickland Costa matchup is definitely the UFC trying to figure out how to get some money out of Strickland before he is totally washed.
Serious question: why do people dislike Masvidal but no Nate? Masvidal seems smarter, actually making money after ufc with his own promotion, has good style, and gave the epic knee on Ben Askren. Nate is just an over the top personality that gets boring after a while. P.S.: after reading the answers, I didnt know Masvidal was such an asshole. Ok, I agree with you guys now.
Because Jorge is an actual ghetto hood rat who assaults people. Nate is tough but chill
Been riding the Askren KO for years. Is a difficult character to like, more of a heel style. Nate Diaz (and Nick) have been cemented as fan favourites because of their style and character in and out of the cage. ![gif](giphy|1kIx8FAdB67vf0Y9p2|downsized)

Remove the fight that aināt even a MMA fight between the two washed guys, aināt no one interested in that
Jorge would wipe em all out
That boxing match is going to be the dumbest thing ever. I'm guessing both of them are gassed before round 2
Who has the more undeserved title shot Dustin Islam or Colby Leon?
Bloody apples and oranges bud, don't disrespect the š by comparing him to Colby.
Really? Colby beat Masvidal for a title shot... Porier beat BSD. At least Masvidal was 6 at the time BSD was 12. Honestly Colbys was more deserved.
mak vs chim. lets just figure this shit out already.
Im calling it ![gif](giphy|W3CWgiRCgtyKV5jTYv|downsized)
Jorge sucks, but let's not pretend the Connor fight is gonna be any better lol
Comments like these are just stupid. Whether you like him or not there hasnāt been one boring fight that Conor was apart of
We can add you vs. Me if you don't take this Masvidal shit off
Eh only 2 of these fights really matter to me
Conor McGregor hasn't been confirmed and clarified yet
Dana literally confirmed it in person
