I actually find his recent cardio suspicious, he's always looked terrible in later fights. Now all of a sudden he can hold a pace for 5

Yeah true, but he was also a quick starter and liked to put pressure on his opponents. He's kind of tightened that aspect up after his 1st fight vs. Yan.

PEDS are real though

I remember fights were he was gassed in the 2nd which he does put a high output. But that's 2 fights he fought pretty hard through 5 so it makes me wonder

Poirier/Gaethje for the vacant BMF belt

This card is incredible, I just posted a topic about it.. always forget about this thread here haha

The rest of the main card is fleshed out with crucial and intriguing matchups. Former middleweight champion Alex Pereira makes his promised move up to light heavyweight where former light heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz welcomes him to 205 pounds.

Additionally, UFC’s knockout king Derrick Lewis looks to right the ship against rising Brazilian Marcos Rogério de Lima. A pair of welterweight duels complete the main card as karate specialist and former title challenger Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson faces off against the explosive and unpredictable Michel Pereira, and Michael Chiesa and Kevin Holland square off in a fascinating stylistic matchup. Plus, Tony Ferguson and Bobby Green fight in a lightweight contest.

White also announced Paulo Costa will Ikram Aliskerov in a middleweight content that is sure to deliver.

Is it possible Bobby Green has such low fight IQ that Cucuy can get a dub?

Idk Ferguson just isn't Ferguson anymore. Bobby green is a fast striker and I can see that giving tony problems.
