Out of last 11 Oliveira wins, Ferguson the only one to last to decision. Hell of a accomplishment knowing he was in danger so many times

Sucks to see Ferguson's demise. He hasn't been the same since he went cray cray. I bet he's on medications that really limit his ability to perform. I think the slide downward happened significantly before the Gaethje fight.

Demise?!  Ferguson looked great until Chandler caught him with a lucky shot. @Baldy

With any luck this latest knock to Tonys head will remedy whatever was off in there before.

Sometimes "off" is good in combat, it's unpredictable.

Charles vs Islam gotta be next. I think Charles being +250 odds is insulting. Islam has very good wrestling, but Oliveira has the best BJJ in the game. Charles also has a huge advantage on the feet. I think Dana wants Islam to fight Dariush so he can money grab Charles vs Conor but that would be ******** and everyone knows it considering Conor hasn't won a fight in over 2 years.

Chandler vs McGregor would be a banger of a fight. I think that fight is dangerous for both though because if either land they might go out. Can't blame Mike for the callout though, he's in the last few years of his career and he wants the highest profile fight. 

Gaethje probably will take a year off, but if I was the matchmaker, I'd give him a rematch vs Dustin. Both lost by sub to Charles, and it gives them a chance to get back into title contention.

I know that screws over Dariush but maybe he could fight Gillespie or the winner of RDA and Fiziev? Maybe even Justin steps up and fights him at the end of the year who knows.

I think Tony should retire, he had a great career but when you lost your last 4 and got knocked out like that, I think it's time.

You really think that kick was lucky? Tony always leaves his head out there to be hit.

If Conor just walks into a title fight with Charles I'm basically done with MMA. I mean I'm pretty close already, but yeah, hat would be the straw that broke the proverbial camel's back.

God, @Baldric, you're the one who's always like "it's just prize fighting," and now you're going to pretend like you give a **** about the integrity of the sport?!  The man's from the favelas, let him earn McGregor-the-plumber money.
