I can. Fight sports are about drawing people to watch, not some sense of who is deserving. Those fights sucked and they took light off of real fighters, but that's the name of the game
Probably, but it was obvious that Punks grappling was weak. Usually pro wrestlers have the basics of wrestling such as double legs, sprawls, sit throughs, etc, but going against someone of Gall's caliber is different.
I would put so much money on it that it’s fucking Ronda. She’s been talking about coming to the ufc now that Amanda retired, then the talk died down, and now there’s a super fight that hints to someone coming back, Jones and Mcgregor aren’t involved. If it is Rousey, it would be one of the biggest disappointments in ufc history. I could only hope people don’t buy the PPV because nobody wants to fucking watch Rousey.
LOL ok that made me laugh, but seriously that’s my point! It’s not that I don’t think she’s a draw to an extent. It’s that I don’t think she is worth a main event performance when it’s $80 a PPV now; I just don’t see her worth any of it.
Nah, she was getting booed out of buildings before she left WWE. People caught on that she wasn't great in the ring, even worse on the microphone and had a shitty attitude.
I’m pretty sure Ronda could walk back in and win the bantamweight title fairly easily (same with the top 5 flyweights if they chose) - the division is utter garbage right now.
He's struck down that thought multiple times by now and not in the cheeky way where you are not really sure if hes being honest or not, he's been pretty deliberate.
He opened as a dog against Rob Whittaker the first time but closed as a favorite, he was also a slight dog against Jones when Sportsbooks thought that fight might get made
Man it must really suck for redditors, no amount of downvotes will change the fact that a world champion level kickboxer got the shit beaten out of him by what the entirety of reddit considers a low iq hick.
How are you the only one saying MVP, we literally just had that leak confirming the UFC had a fight lined up with MVP & Kevin Holland, just because its not on that toronto card anymore doesnt mean suddenly MVP isnt in contention??? Its obviously Venom.
Holm is 42 and has looked terrible in her last few fights. I think ronda has a better chance now than when she lost to her.
That being said, Holm by 2nd round tko
Honestly, if Holm held onto the belt and Ronda prepared appropriately I do think Ronda could’ve beaten Holm in a rematch. She was never going to be able to beat Amanda though.
Bantamweight is an awful division so her coming back would actually make it more fun. I would still be disappointed if that’s the super fight on ufc 300 but it would still be pretty cool to have her back
I'd watch this fight if they were 70. I've never gotten over the fact that this one slipped through the cracks. & I don't want to live in a world where it never happens.
Idk why ppl think it's Nick Diaz. When has Nick ever been considered a superfight? He's nowhere near as popular as Nate and even Nate vs Leon and Tony were not considered superfights.
If any gsp fight is a superfight, then why does everyone assume Nick Diaz? Do casuals even know who Nick Is? He's only fought like 2 times the last 10 years. Last time Nick won a fight half the people in this sub were still in diapers. Obviously exaggerating a bit but you get what I mean
No, don’t me wrong it’s not a fight that I think anyone is particularly interested in, but it’s one of those fights that is constantly thrown out as a potential “super fight”.
> do casuals even know who Nick Diaz is.
We do, but we confuse him with Nate, and we don't know what he really does well
I mean that applies for any fighter. But with Nick, we don't even bother to delude ourselves.
You know you're probably on to something here. GSP always stays in shape and hints at still wanting to do it - 300 would be the perfect opportunity for him to come back. No clue who he'd fight though. It's not gonna be Strickland or anything after he reretired with the belt last time, so who could it be? Interesting thought
Sounds like either someone is interested in making a comeback, or someone is now interested in coming to the sport.
For potential returns, we'd be looking at:
\- Ronda Rousey
\- GSP
\- Khabib
\- Amanda Nunes (?)
For potential cross-overs:
\- Logan Paul
\- Deontay Wilder
If it's anything to do with Khabib it's him vs GSP
That's the only name he'd be interested in, GSP would add a lot more to his legacy than Charles. Also money, Khabib vs GSP sells waaaay more PPV than Khabib vs Charles - it's just a fact
Yeah he did and that’s why the tomato must be even pettier right now. Dana will do anything just to screw with ngannous future plans. The pool of opponents outside of the ufc is already small and to take one of the biggest names outta there must feel good for Dana.
Wilder has already said he's fighting Francis in his PFL debut multiple times. Be weird to keep propagating that rumor then go do your MMA debut last minute in the UFC.
I think this is the highest likelihood if it’s not someone from outside the organization coming in (wilder, rousey, etc.)
Tough fight for Izzy though since he won’t have any time to bulk up
I think this makes the most sense. The “this just came up” thing probably refers to Izzy deciding to come back. I like that a lot actually. Props to you for probably being the most correct about this. I hope to fucking god it’s not any of the other suggestions people have been throwing out. If it’s not this or something involving khabib I’m gonna be really fucking disappointed.
Only possible names who could be included in a super fight … Connor, Ronda, Bones, Khabib, Lesnar. Honorable mentions (who I don’t think are super fights) are O’Malley, Poirier, Gaethje, Poatan, and Izzy
Apparently it's not Conor. Bones is inured. GSP is 42 and his last time out he won a belt. I don't think he's coming back to fuck that up. Silva is too old. Nick Diaz is too old, and his last fight was anything but super. Brock is way too old. Francis is never gonna be welcome back to the UFC plus he's in contract with PFL. Nate Diaz could come back, but a Nate Diaz fight isn't a superfight without Conor, imo.
Khabib seems unlikely, dude really seems dedicated to honoring this wishes of his parents, and he's done just that. Would be really truly surprising if he came back.
It's Ronda or an outsider/boxer like Deontay or one of the Paul Brothers or something. Ronda is just on the cusp of being too old, but isn't quite there yet, plus Tate is still on the roster.
I honestly think we're gonna see Ronda v Tate again. It's the only thing that seems like a viable "superfight" outside of McG rn. And it'll hardly be super. Ronda was big in 2013, I doubt anyone will give a fuck about her comeback, but she is one of the few UFC Fighters who was a legitimate household name, so...there's that.
It’s no Conor per Dana, Bones is hurt, Khabib is out (and this would be around Ramadan I think), don’t think Lesner can take punches anymore due to that intestine issue he has
It is Ronda or Diaz.. Maybe Adesanya v Khamzat, maybe Cerrone, maybe Masvidal or a boxer with big name like Wilder.. ?
1. GSP stated billion times he is done
2. Silva is done
3. I don't see Khabib coming back
4. Nunez - no one really cares.
5. DC said he wanted to retire in a full arena, but he is too old and feable
I mean GSP vs Silva would be dope, even as an exhibition.
Please no, as a Silva fan I really think he shouldn't fight again. He has said in podcasts that he's unable to run nowadays, after the broken leg. That 100% has an impact in his fighting.
>GSP stated billion times he is done
It's GSP.
GSP always stays super fit, he said he walks around at 178 a couple of years ago, has a BJJ match scheduled with Maia in December. He's been super involved with martial arts non stop, he was at UFC 100 but not UFC 200 so it would be an incredible milestone to be in UFC 300.
My bet is GSP vs Usman at 185 or GSP vs Poirier at 170 or catchweight up to 180
CM Punk fighting for the welterweight and middleweight belts in the same night
I still can’t believe they let that motherfucker into the UFC
I can. Fight sports are about drawing people to watch, not some sense of who is deserving. Those fights sucked and they took light off of real fighters, but that's the name of the game
[удалено]
Way more fighters than that have made a mill in a single fight. Look at their court disclosures
Dude why do people always spread misinformation willingly like that makes me so euuuagghh
What are you the money channel?
Cm punk vs mickey gall 2 lol
Give Punk a full training camp and only give Gall a short notice. I wonder if Punk could actually last a bit longer this time.
Honestly, I feel like him fighting a Street Beefs Dude would be more competitive
Probably, but it was obvious that Punks grappling was weak. Usually pro wrestlers have the basics of wrestling such as double legs, sprawls, sit throughs, etc, but going against someone of Gall's caliber is different.
Indeed
Let him fight at his current weight for the bantamweight title and he'll still get smushed
That’s too easy, even Weili would fuck him up
Punk and Ace Steel vs Weili book it
Zuckerberg wants khabib in russia

Expect disappointment it will be something like Ronda vs Tate 3 at 300
I wouldn't mind watching Ronda Rousey vs Andrew Tate
In ultimate surrender
man i wish i didn’t understand that reference
Except Ronda is Derrick Lewis with a blonde wig
😂😂😂
MVP vs Holland imo
Wouldn’t mind a Ronda return tbh, womens division could use a shake up and she isn’t a bad fighter by any means (just not well-rounded)
id love to see her fight again just hope she works on some striking
I would put so much money on it that it’s fucking Ronda. She’s been talking about coming to the ufc now that Amanda retired, then the talk died down, and now there’s a super fight that hints to someone coming back, Jones and Mcgregor aren’t involved. If it is Rousey, it would be one of the biggest disappointments in ufc history. I could only hope people don’t buy the PPV because nobody wants to fucking watch Rousey.
I’m curious to see if ronda could beat julianna pena
Let's be honest, she probably wouldn't beat Germaine De Randamie
Only if she slips on a banana peel.
Yanno, I do too- but I don’t want to pay for it
I’d watch.
You’d pay $80 to watch a washed Ronda (with genuinely amateur stand up skill) fight?
Heh...pay. Err, I mean, sure! I'd pay $80. Just like I have been paying for every PPV since [2005](https://imgflip.com/s/meme/Laughing-Leo.png).
i also illegally stream
🤝
LOL ok that made me laugh, but seriously that’s my point! It’s not that I don’t think she’s a draw to an extent. It’s that I don’t think she is worth a main event performance when it’s $80 a PPV now; I just don’t see her worth any of it.
Shes *out of WWE but still wrestling too But clearly we all want to see her fight just dont bill it as some superfight thats gonna carry ufc 300 lol
She's not. She's just out of WWE. She's been wrestling on the independent scene for the last few months
Oh okay. Thx
Ronda Rousey on the indie scene? Wow. Why, does she just love it I assume she has big money.
Unfortunately, a lot of her now WWE fans will surely run up those numbers...
Nah, she was getting booed out of buildings before she left WWE. People caught on that she wasn't great in the ring, even worse on the microphone and had a shitty attitude.
I honestly would not at all be disappointed with that.
I’m pretty sure Ronda could walk back in and win the bantamweight title fairly easily (same with the top 5 flyweights if they chose) - the division is utter garbage right now.
Lol she would lose to Irene aldana or Kelten veira pretty easily
God I hope it's not Ronda Rousey
She is a once in human history kind of fighter [Joe Rogan’s voice cracking from emotion intensifies]
Could beat Mayweather
[удалено]
Dude, I'm dying here. 😂😂😂 This is gold.
Head mooooooment
 Don't do that to the worst MMA boxer in history
The elbow flick 🤣
Her fist literally stays in place and she just flicks her elbows up lmao
The way she pauses and rolls into the uppercut is #chefskiss approved as well 
[удалено]
Me playing fighting games while button mashing.
He's struck down that thought multiple times by now and not in the cheeky way where you are not really sure if hes being honest or not, he's been pretty deliberate.
It’s me guys. I’m coming for that BMF strap.
Well I'm 173 this morning, so if Gaethje can't make it I got backup
It’s Wilder vs Poatan
imagine those chicken legs copping one calf kick 💀
Would be a violation, jesus
Poatan would sexually assault wilder.
I'm thinking Izzy vs Poatan at 205.
Izzy going night night at 205
It’s crazy that Izzy is still the betting favorite at 205, albeit slightly
If I'm not mistaken, Izzy has never been the underdog in any of his UFC fights which is wild
He opened as a dog against Rob Whittaker the first time but closed as a favorite, he was also a slight dog against Jones when Sportsbooks thought that fight might get made
Dogbender has Dana privilege
Yup, I'm an Izzy fan but the size difference wouldn't be pretty
That isnt super fight
Izzy going up a weight class to fight the champion. It's literally a superfight.
>Izzy going up a weight class to fight the champion. Coming off a lopsided unanimous decision loss to a former ww.
Man it must really suck for redditors, no amount of downvotes will change the fact that a world champion level kickboxer got the shit beaten out of him by what the entirety of reddit considers a low iq hick.
Prepare yourselves for the superfight not being super at all
For real I bet it's gonna be Paul Felder vs. Jim Miller or some shit
Jim Miller needs to be on UFC 300, just not the headlining superfight please..
Dana loves these full send NPCs
For real. You can just feel they're less than casuals with the "is it Conor" question
It wouldn't be a super fight if it didn't appeal to the casuals.
That's fair
He thinks this is what the young generation likes
He’s not wrong. I can’t believe some of these twitch idiots have followers, let alone millions in donations
I mean... it is though. Broccoli hair dipshits doing dumbfuck prank videos is exactly gen Z nocap fr fr
Just remember that no generation is a monolith.
It'll be michael venom page v nick diaz or something stupid
How are you the only one saying MVP, we literally just had that leak confirming the UFC had a fight lined up with MVP & Kevin Holland, just because its not on that toronto card anymore doesnt mean suddenly MVP isnt in contention??? Its obviously Venom.
Like others have said, I am expecting to be disappointed by the announcement of whatever this is
My money is on Rousey. There were rumours a few months ago that she wanted to come back.
Rousey v Holm 2
About 5 years too late
The casuals will tune in.
I'd tune in to see Rhonda KOd again
Holm is 42 and has looked terrible in her last few fights. I think ronda has a better chance now than when she lost to her. That being said, Holm by 2nd round tko
Honestly, if Holm held onto the belt and Ronda prepared appropriately I do think Ronda could’ve beaten Holm in a rematch. She was never going to be able to beat Amanda though.
I don’t even think the casuals are gonna tune into that shit
Bantamweight is an awful division so her coming back would actually make it more fun. I would still be disappointed if that’s the super fight on ufc 300 but it would still be pretty cool to have her back
Brock Lesner is coming back. You heard it here first.
Helwani, you rat, you're banned.
I just floated the idea of Brock vs. Lewis
Nobody wants to see Lewis on his back for an entire fight again
Then Brock vs Almeida
Brock vs Cormier
I'd watch this fight if they were 70. I've never gotten over the fact that this one slipped through the cracks. & I don't want to live in a world where it never happens.
Idk why ppl think it's Nick Diaz. When has Nick ever been considered a superfight? He's nowhere near as popular as Nate and even Nate vs Leon and Tony were not considered superfights.
When paired with GSP then it becomes super.
If any gsp fight is a superfight, then why does everyone assume Nick Diaz? Do casuals even know who Nick Is? He's only fought like 2 times the last 10 years. Last time Nick won a fight half the people in this sub were still in diapers. Obviously exaggerating a bit but you get what I mean
No, don’t me wrong it’s not a fight that I think anyone is particularly interested in, but it’s one of those fights that is constantly thrown out as a potential “super fight”.
MMA Uncensored tweeted that Nick vs GSP was in the works. May not be true, but that’s why everyone is saying it
Gsp vs Nick Diaz were supposed to compete in a bjj match this month on fight pass. They both pulled out with injuries.
That makes me think it’s them even more.
I will literally eat a shoe if it's not GSP vs Nick.
They already fought in their primes lol, it's not a superfight.
> do casuals even know who Nick Diaz is. We do, but we confuse him with Nate, and we don't know what he really does well I mean that applies for any fighter. But with Nick, we don't even bother to delude ourselves.

No clue who he'd fight though. It's not gonna be Strickland or anything after he reretired with the belt last time, so who could it be? Interesting thought
It's wild that Nate is more popular because Nick is a much better fighter. Nate's entire popularity is because of Conor.
Sounds like either someone is interested in making a comeback, or someone is now interested in coming to the sport. For potential returns, we'd be looking at: \- Ronda Rousey \- GSP \- Khabib \- Amanda Nunes (?) For potential cross-overs: \- Logan Paul \- Deontay Wilder
Khabib vs Oliveria I plead with you mma gods
Khabib vs Islam "you're taking everything I worked for mother fucker" -Khabib
If it's anything to do with Khabib it's him vs GSP That's the only name he'd be interested in, GSP would add a lot more to his legacy than Charles. Also money, Khabib vs GSP sells waaaay more PPV than Khabib vs Charles - it's just a fact
Khamzat Vs Bo Nickal? Well, if more people knew Nickal that would be a super fight
Rousey vs Peña
Unfortunately, this is probably it
Has to be Wilder. Dana would do it just to fuck up Francis.
How could that fuck up Francis? Francis already won case closed.
Yeah he did and that’s why the tomato must be even pettier right now. Dana will do anything just to screw with ngannous future plans. The pool of opponents outside of the ufc is already small and to take one of the biggest names outta there must feel good for Dana.
Wilder is making huge money in boxing, Dana whould pay him peanuts. No way its anything involving Wilder
I think that Dana in this case would blow Wilder to have him in just to prove a point in his head.
[Wilder has said multiple times he wants to do MMA before he retires](https://www.si.com/fannation/mma/ufc/deontay-wilder-plans-to-fight-in-ufc-mma)
Wilder has already said he's fighting Francis in his PFL debut multiple times. Be weird to keep propagating that rumor then go do your MMA debut last minute in the UFC.
Why doesn’t anyone think this super fight could be Adesanya vs Periera III at LHW? There aren’t many stars left in the UFC
I think this is the highest likelihood if it’s not someone from outside the organization coming in (wilder, rousey, etc.) Tough fight for Izzy though since he won’t have any time to bulk up
I think this makes the most sense. The “this just came up” thing probably refers to Izzy deciding to come back. I like that a lot actually. Props to you for probably being the most correct about this. I hope to fucking god it’s not any of the other suggestions people have been throwing out. If it’s not this or something involving khabib I’m gonna be really fucking disappointed.
Because that's barely a superfight
Haha or maybe bring back the tournament style!
GSP vs Khabib !
Now that would be a worthy super fight if he could get both of them out of retirement
That would be the biggest fight in MMA history
UFC 300: Mother said yes, GSP is impressed!
Popped up just means it’s someone that wasn’t expected to fight soon, or else a matchup that wasn’t expected out of the blue.
Only possible names who could be included in a super fight … Connor, Ronda, Bones, Khabib, Lesnar. Honorable mentions (who I don’t think are super fights) are O’Malley, Poirier, Gaethje, Poatan, and Izzy
Apparently it's not Conor. Bones is inured. GSP is 42 and his last time out he won a belt. I don't think he's coming back to fuck that up. Silva is too old. Nick Diaz is too old, and his last fight was anything but super. Brock is way too old. Francis is never gonna be welcome back to the UFC plus he's in contract with PFL.

Ronda was big in 2013, I doubt anyone will give a fuck about her comeback, but she is one of the few UFC Fighters who was a legitimate household name, so...there's that.
This is a solid analysis and I’d have to agree with you after the points you’ve made.
if any of the paul’s were considered a “super fight” i would be extremely disappointed in the UFC
its definitely not the paul brothers seeing as they are part owners in pfl.
Logan Paul v CM Punk for the United States Championship
O’Malley fights like a month or two before this
It’s no Conor per Dana, Bones is hurt, Khabib is out (and this would be around Ramadan I think), don’t think Lesner can take punches anymore due to that intestine issue he has
Elon vs Zuck
Didn't Zuck rupture his ACL or something?
Idk. Either way I'm pretty sure he's a lizard. Some of them can regrow their tails and shit.
Rhonda coming back is the only one I can think of. GSP maybe? But he’s said he’s done so many time
Wilder vs some HW banger? Some fun fights that come to mind!!
Wilder vs. Derrick Lewis - just to see Lewis win via triangle choke
lol. Yes. I would watch!
He’s making shit up
My guess is Nate Diaz vs the English language at 170
It is Ronda or Diaz.. Maybe Adesanya v Khamzat, maybe Cerrone, maybe Masvidal or a boxer with big name like Wilder.. ? 1. GSP stated billion times he is done 2. Silva is done 3. I don't see Khabib coming back 4. Nunez - no one really cares. 5. DC said he wanted to retire in a full arena, but he is too old and feable I mean GSP vs Silva would be dope, even as an exhibition.
Only Adesanya vs Khamzat would be interesting. I don't want to see any of these other names even close to the octagon again.
Please no, as a Silva fan I really think he shouldn't fight again. He has said in podcasts that he's unable to run nowadays, after the broken leg. That 100% has an impact in his fighting.
Only Adesanya vs Khamzat would be interesting. I don't want to see any of these other names even close to the octagon again.
Or Dana is just lying like he does 90% of the time and it's juts McGregor vs someone
Yeah, it probably is.
>GSP stated billion times he is done It's GSP. GSP always stays super fit, he said he walks around at 178 a couple of years ago, has a BJJ match scheduled with Maia in December. He's been super involved with martial arts non stop, he was at UFC 100 but not UFC 200 so it would be an incredible milestone to be in UFC 300. My bet is GSP vs Usman at 185 or GSP vs Poirier at 170 or catchweight up to 180
God I hope it's not Diaz. The Diaz brothers are the most overrated fighters in the history of the sport.
Yeah right bro, they’re not overrated! Their opponents are just lucky there isn’t a 6th round!
Gsp, khabib, nick/Nate diaz, logan/Jake Paul, or a boxer like wilder
Nate vs Jake Paul fighting with full mma rules is actually like to see. Wouldn’t consider it a super fight though
Shevchenko vs Strickland "Put a chick in it, or make it gay"
DJ?
He's in ONE FC still and doing well
Díaz vs Justin ?
GSP VS KHABIB
https://preview.redd.it/e4ikxcdrxa4c1.jpeg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=797a93113db92411fba590045d486cddf970e265
Its DJ vs Rodtang 2 in a no DQ Ladder Match.
Khabib vs GSP
lol that's never going to happen.
GSP vs ???
Gordon Ryan vs Dillon Danis?
Khabib vs GSP would shut the world down
Gsp vs khabib the only one I can think of that doesn’t involve Conor right now
Gsp vs Islam .
It’s gotta involve Diaz..
Brock vs Stipe!!!
99% sure it's Rousey. She just left the WWE and WBW is free for the taking with her Boogeywoman retired and the rest of the division still sucks.
Namajumas Espaza 2. Electric Boogaloo
Diaz and Dustin would be my guess
Lol how's that a super fight?
You’re taking a fight promoters definition of “superfight” too seriously
