Why does everyone keep saying he had no camp? This fight was originally his. Gilbert only stepped in after failed negotiation. Gilbert had as much time to get ready for that fight as Jorge did.... Usman wasnt preparing for Jorge, but Jorge should have consistently been preparing for Usman because that was his ONLY FIGHT OPTION.

Listen, I am a huge Jorge fan truly I am. But he could be given as much time as he wants and the fullest gas tank, and still take an L.
He nor anyone else in that division can handle the wrestling of Usman.... Also lets not forget Usman has taken harder shots than Jorge throws... So in my honest opinion, my boy Jorge was gonna take that L via wrestle fuck regardless of the situation.

Feel free to disagree but I don't see anyone in top15 being able to outwrestle Kamaru Usman, he's just on a different level.

Masvidal knew it too... that's why he didnt take the fight originally and only took this fight because he got "close" to the money he can justify a loss for.

They both coasted that fight as far as im concerned, Usman walked away with a clear win with out taking any damage from a potentially dangerous striker.

He probably just really wanted to punch the shit out of Colby, cuz he could have wrestle fkd him as well.

I ain't gonna say no camp. It may have been in the back of his head he may get to fight. But losing 22 pounds and flying across the world is tough all in itself. When they done embedded and the lens on the cameras kept fogging up I realized how hot it was there, but I'm sure there was some jet lag from the 18 hour flight. He did lose but I think he looked good with his wrestling. I would like to see it in the usa. Both didn't really look super great to me. If I was a fighter, fighting on fight island. I'd probably wanna be there atleast 3 weeks before my fight.

We were talking about that last night. I dont get a chance to watch the mma media like i was a couple years ago, so im not totally caught up with 👊🏝. Was wondering if they have training facilities to accommodate something like that.

Yes. Every fighter on the card has his or her own space.

Jorge Masvidal would be smart to take that diaz rematch right about now, OR take the Leon Edwards fight.

Colby would probably do a similar fight style vs jorge and wrestle fk him into decision loss.

Leon and Nate will most likely at least keep it somewhat standing.
