Yea. The smaller cage would definitely benefit Costa’s style as the bigger does IA.

@free I think people need to appreciate great gameplans and Izzy vs Romero was one of the best of all time in that department, Izzy was using his suppior movement to hit and not get hit, all u racist want Israel to get brain damage and lose the belt because u can’t apprecant a genus gameplan And u should all watch bare knuckle boxing, This is why One is way better then UFC  And Will be the Coke To the Ufc Pepsi because 1. They respect their fighter, 2. The fighter follow the bushodo code and the way of the warrior and 3. They don’t have stupid stupid fan who are toxic to the sport,

Ahh yes, ONE FC will surpass UFC because they follow the "bushodo code." This is flawless logic.

@blaydes I think u may be higher on the spectrum then me and I’m pretty Autistic( no joke) for can’t telling I’m joking. But for real tho, I don’t think the fan should be able to **** on fighters perfamce until Baldie Mc****face pay the fighter more, 12 dollar per PPV buys goes to the fighter, Dana can easy pay half, but why would you if you don’t have to. Wish I could stream the event and give every man card fighter a dollar by mail, so I don’t have to give my money to the UFC management

@Damien definitely agree with you on the racism part but one cant be less racist than the UFC. I heard a rumor that Chatri was found distributing Weapons and Ammo to counter-protesters at a BLM charity dog adoption auction

Well I do like ONE because of the formats, but there false pretenses and open lies turn me off.
Over a hundred world champions!!! in 4 sports how the proper **** do they tabulate that nonsense?
Rizn is where its at..well mostly kidding, KSW is pretty legit they do a local meets world thing.
The worst guy is that fake ass Russian who does kid fights that guys sick barkut or some ****.

Another border collie, but a female this time.

Coming to me from Sydney. 750$ just to get her to me because I can't get her a flight and it has to be road transport.

@free

I don't think the UFC won't survive too much longer if they keep hotshotting with controversial fighters.
