@FcBayern 
Figgy is 35 going on 36 next month. He'll never be champ again unless he defies all odds and past statistics. 35 is a death note for fighters 155 and under

Why are people assuming Figgy's power is going to have the same affect on fighters up a weight class vs someone who is much more technical than he is ? Don't get me wrong it could but even if it does Font's jab is a mother f'er to deal with and get past

Injuries have really caught up to Figgy the past 2 years. Maybe not having to cut so much weight will help him perform better but even if he's healthy he's really, really small for 135. It's not like he's fighting someone who's not battle tested either. Font hasn't necessarily had the results but he's been fighting the best guys at 135 and 4 of his last 5 have been main events. 

Opponents since 2020:

Figgy:Benavidez, Perez, Moreno

Font:Moraes, Garbrandt, Aldo, Vera, Yanez, Sandhagen


I'm really not trying to take anything away from Figgy, but between the injuries and not having seen a different look other than Moreno going on 3 years now, him beating Font is just a tough sell for me. I think Figgy would need to put him away fairly early and I just don't see it. Font is crazy durable.

@Vandal 
wasn't a champ in the UFC at 35. Probably could've been but Figgy is no mighty mouse

@foppa something I havent seen people touch on is the size of rob font. I’ve heard font walks around at 170 lbs if not higher. So that means even up a weight class figgy isn’t even having a bigger cut. Pair that with the fact font has a pretty large frame for the weight class & I think figgy is in some trouble

it is in Texas. Home of the corrupt judging. Fig by decision isn't off the table

Gonna be hard for fig to win a decision when he’s getting his head jabbed off for three rounds straight

Yeah Figgy is a true flyweight. My brain honestly just keeps coming back to what Moreno did to his eye in their last fight.

I could very easily see another Dr stoppage happening with how Font likes to pump that jab. I will give Figgy credit there. He can take a punch and is just as tough as Font to be honest.

If Rob doesn't finish Fig he probably won't win. His track record speaks for itself. Rob by ko or Fig by decision. Just my guess

Honestly I think Fob will badly 30/27 Fig he probably will have better chin etc with less weight cut, maybe a knockdown early.
Fig will need a miracle sub or some Grasso 10/8s.
