Maximov vs. Brundage
Nick Maximov, SUB, R2
Brundage is coming into this fight in a real short notice and a bit undersized against a specialist jiu jitsu athlete in Maximov. Not much to say

Ortega vs Volk

Predictions: 6 of 13 Winners, 2 Perfect, 405 Points   |   Tied for 3668th

The man who put struck aldo and out struck "the greatest boxer in the ufc" not once but twice, will defend his belt on sat. And I believe successfully. Volk is smart. I think he will use his range to keep ortega at bay and his wrestling to stop any jiu jitsu threat. I'm going volk by dec. A possible 49-46 proformence.

Plusmoneygod woah woah woah calm down hun! I never said that Ali wasn't a legend he absolutely is! I knew all the stuff u pointed out cos we did a project on important black historical figures at school last year at the hight of the BLM protests. I know full well how good he was in and out the ring thanks. I just said that Diaz is an important figure for the weed legalisation movement as his ban brought the struggle of weed users to the public converststion. History will remember him and his fight for weed the same way Ali is cos weed legalisation is the new frontier to create an open and fair and just society cos its an important social issue. I get ur mad at Diaz for sleeping with your boyfriend but u cant deny how influential he is for social progress and for weed users who've been victimised for years

This is the first time i've ever seen you on a forum and i hope you never return quite frankly. 

**** this is UFC266, we don't need a bible nobody is going to read about Ali vs Diaz and BLM protests. Go take a hike! And when you come back we can talk UFC 266.

@RangerJW i agree by judging his shadow boxing from a clip dude probably didn't want to do anyways is kind of dumb. For me it is more the physique in that video, his comeback pics he looked so good.

And Jon Jones can't get tf out of his own way... ffs. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE like c'mon dude...

Don't blame him. Plus Money just attacked him with a 1 page rant about how he's an idiot. Let the man defend himself. He just did one post no need to attack him , it no big deal, . And Kaylahx08 .Stay brother. You seem like a cool dude. More people to talk to on Tapology is never a bad thing, Let the site grow I say

@DUCK i 110% agree but it was a dumb point to make in the first place comparing Diaz vs Ali, especially bringing up politics. 
+ PlusMoneyGod just rambles Incoherent statements anyways. If Kylah stands on it, it should be water off a ducks back. (Haha see what i did there.)

 Of course i want the site to grow i love this site with passion, but i'm here to talk UFC not politics. There is a miscellaneous forum for a reason.

@Kaylah I don't really want to get into it but comparing Nick Diaz to Ali in a civil rights context is pretty absurd. Or any context really.
