Instead of spamming the boards everytime I see some cool news, I’ll post it here. I’ll also keep track of prospects I like, new signings to ufc/dwcs/Bellator/etc.

Gotta wonder if Ares is gonna be able to stay on Fight Pass at this rate, they dropped FAC super quick when Krause got busted for gambling (though clearly that was a more serious criminal situation)

I’m not sure how many years their deal with fight pass is but gotta imagine they won’t resign ares unless Fernand sells it

I hope the new Fernand (giom peltier) or someone else can buy ares. That org is huge for French mma

Marc Diakese will be fighting Kaue fernandes at ufc São Paulo 

He posted on his ig that he’s facing a Brazilian prospect on that card. Kaue fernandes said he was making his debut on the same card, so I guess we know who he’s facing. Probably make or break fight for Diakese

Kaue is super exciting but I kinda get the feeling Diakese is gonna break the wrestling out again and smother him

Hopefully Bulgarian Top Team can get most of the guys out of Fernand’s management company cos they clearly have a good relationship with the UFC all the new guys on the French card were from them and they are signing a lot of guys as they just signed both the Prigent brothers and they got Issa Issakov on the Contender Series on week 10 so Fernand’s guys should jump ship to them

I’m pretty sure the bigger guys like abdoul & Baki will sign with bigger management. Baki would probabyk sign with Ali if I were to guess

I think the only problem is for how scummy Fernand is, he is a great coach. It's hard to tell if these guys will be as successful without him. I think they should just move to Xtreme Couture at this point especially since Ngannou did it and had major success. Gane might be loyal to him cause he pretty much has a spot in the UFC no matter what happens, but every other fighter at MMA Factory should leave that place. The only problem is that Ngannou has beef with the fighters from that gym, but it may get resolved if they all can agree that Fernand is a tool

@danromanick the fighters success isn’t only dependent on Fernand. Guys like Baki and lazy king have talent that Fernand can’t give them

The issue is that it's thanks to fernand that some of these french mma factory dudes have a nice thai style striking for the most part, I mean they all have evasive styles on the feet, i'd assume it comes from Lopez's education. Leaving fernand can be bad for their striking improvements, but then again, good for their grappling improvements

lopez is overrated as a coach

ngannou didn't learn how to pace himself and didn't incorporate kicks into his game until he left him, lazy king has god awful striking, baki is sloppy on the feet etc etc

ciryl gane and imavov are really good strikers but their striking style, awareness and skills primarily indicate that their striking is this good more because of talent than coaching

Not sure every french person wants to move to america. Believe it or not but some fighters prefer to live abroad for personal reasons even if it would help their career to be located in the USA.

Top prospect salahdine parnasse will be attempting to become ksw triple champ at ksw 89 Dec 16th. He takes on Adrian bartosinski. Parnasse is a beast but that size advantage is going to be too much

Yohan lainesse said he has signed to fight for Jan 20th in Toronto. That is a confirmation that the January ppv is in Toronto Canada

@baremaras 

I agree that there are better coaches than Lopez, especially when trying to learn MMA as a whole but it's not just Gane and Imavov who have that patient, albeit a bit boring counter/pitter patter striking. T-Lapilus doesn't fight as bouncy but he's equally as patient and technical in there. There's also Gomis who fights in a similar way to Lapilus, except more kick oriented. TBF, Ziam fights in a similar way and he's from another gym in France so it could just be a "French KickBoxing" style

Their striking is influenced by the French Savate style
