How is  Albazi the dark horse of the division he has beaten nobody's all coming in on thier debut lol
  Zhalgas Zhumagulov is 1-5 in the ufc
  Alessandro Costa - coming off a split decision on the contender series making his debut    Malcolm Gordon 2-4 in the ufc and fought Albazi on his debut    Francisco Figueiredo is a good win tho

I mean I saw Bananas and Rah rating Ablazi very highly like he's gonna run through KKF like nothin. I like Kai though. His striking is good (very good)

I’d recommend people watch albazi vs torres. Shows what happens when amir fights someone who can strike better than him

Isn't Jose Torres also lowkey a top 5 flyweight in the world? KKF has only beat 1 top 5 flyweight in his career in Askarov. and he was a little suspect of a prospect before that and KKF exploited his weaknesses. Albazi has definitely shown improvements in the striking since that fight, and Torres might be able to beat everyone except for Pantoja and Moreno in the flyweight division

Kara-France vs Albazi will be competitive. Neither should be dismissed out-of-hand. I lean Kara-France. He was very competitive with Moreno until he wasn't and frankly Albazi's striking is pretty basic **** and he's yet to fight anyone good. Very wide guard, hands generally hanging at shoulder-width by his ballsack. Bad form against a guy like Kara-France who has superb hand speed, straight punches and boxing generally.

Think if Albazi does win it will be via sub. Don't see him decing Kara-France in a three rounder.

Edit: It's five rounds, he might get a dec. Haven't seen him go late, Kara-France does have cardio problems. Still think this will mostly take place on the feet and Kara-France wins that battle. Probably doesn't go the distance.

what are you talking about?

yes I do rate Albazi very highly but where did I say, without joking, that hes going to run through KKF like he's nothing? 

They're both elite fighters in their own ways and its going to be a close fight, me being a big fan of Albazi and rating him highly doesn't mean I also think hes going to run through Kai.


Would be nice if people here argued against the things I said and not the things they think/assume I said

casual fans don't really know who Guram is

plus Tim Elliott and Alex Caceres are the only other ranked fighters on this card aside from the main event and when you factor in the fact that the UFC absolutely hates the Flyweight division + Caceres is a good company man who's been with the promotion for 13 years and never says no to a fight... yeah, Caceres rightfully deserves the co-main spot
