Why would dana bring in bo nickal just for him to get a finish in a minute and Dana tells him he needs one more fight?

I like Dana White brought up he wasn't happy with the Anvar vs Silva fight.

Anvar didn't deserve to be in there. Not saying he's not good, he simply was not ready for the UFC level or even a main card spot on a regional event

Smart move by Dana for having Bo take another fight on the contender rather than signing him now

Dana said Boynazarov was completely fighting in the wrong weight class, that was his problem with the erik silva fight... but not like thats silva's fault once-so-ever

I'm not mad at it but I'm surprised Dana didn't sign him.

I think they'll just give Bo another DWCS for experience reasons. Kinda weird but okay. I'd rather they just sign him. I know he's 2-0 but he has more experiene in combat sport than pretty much any other winner.

Seems more like Dana wants viewers for DWCS than anything actually developmental. What's the difference giving Bo another fight here than against the same opponent to open the prelims of a bad Fight Night card?

Dana knows if he didn't sign Bo to a contract or fight, some other org probably would pick him up lol

Dana doesn't make the matchups. Shelby and Maynard do and he doesn't always agree with those 2 which is why these things happen

Also regarding the comment Dana made about Silva, it’s not Silva’s fault whatsoever that Anvar is dog****, but I’m happy Dana made it clear that that has nothing to do with Silva and that he did what he needed to do.
