Nah Emmet vs. Yair is the fight to make. Volk has earned his shot and has been talking about moving up for like 2 years. This is actually the perfect time to do this fight. There's no clear-cut featherweight Volk should fight.

It gives the UFC time to figure some things out at LW too. If Olivera gets Fiziev, Benny could fight Gaetje while Islam defends against Volk.

Went 8-0 to start then fell off a bit. Still a good event despite the ******** decision and TJ getting injured

Makhachev could be champion for a while... He has that Dagestan sweg, who else is there to fight him apart from Dariush?

I’ll take this like a man, congrats to Islam. He is clearly the better fighter, and while I don’t think he’s out of Charles’ league, he’s superior. Excited to see him vs Volkanovski and Charles is still my favorite fighter. Hope to see him rebound and once again, big props to Dagestani crew on making Abdulmanaps dream come true

I said a while ago that Makhachev is much better than Khabib. This will become clear in the next few years.

Mothswords I really don't think O'Malley should get the title shot. Chito has fought top ranked guys and deserves that title fight in my opinion. O'Malley vs Sandhagen should be the fight to make. Yan is in a bit of a bad spot now that he lost. I think he should wait until the top guys have fought to get a favorable matchup. Especially since he should've won this fight against O'Malley
