He says he has one fight left on his contract and he wants to fight it out and wants a fight soon, but isn't being given a fight, says they told him he wasn't a big enough name for Anderson, but then they gave him Brunson, he wanted the trilogy with Jacque, then they gave Jacqure a fight with Boetsch, Rockhold says he's injured but is posting training videos, Whitaker wants some time off, and Weidman doesn't pick up his phone
He's calling out anyone #1 thru #15 to fight ASAP
I think he should just stay ready to fill in as a late replacement
Bellator Bound
Anderson/Mousasi would have made infinitely more sense than Anderson/Brunson.
He is in such a bad spot. Too dangerous for any top contender to want to fight, but not a big enough name or salesman for the UFC to cater to. He deserves better. The Silvia fight would have been incredible.
Dick Niaz -This, Anderson silva took his fights against bisping and Cormier. He has business with Anderson. Anderson vs Brunson is a joke.He is in such a bad spot. Too dangerous for any top contender to want to fight, but not a big enough name or salesman for the UFC to cater to. He deserves better. The Silvia fight would have been incredible.
Possible opponents ?
Kelvin Gastelum
David Branch
Kryztof Jotko
Mamed Khalidov

Pretty much this.
Love the guy but he looks like he just woke up from a nap aeverytime we see him.
Hes a beast in the cage but you gotta get people amped up to watch you fight.

I like his schtick. It's a breath of fresh air compared to all the McGregor-clones out there. He's basically the endearing foreigner.

I agree but its not what sells or motivates the average person to buy a PPV.
Agree with posters above and that's why he's ramping up his shit talking. He's Armenian, he's really not pretending. When people from the Caucasus talk shit they mean it lol.
excited to see who his next fight will be.
Big fan of this guy. Get him a good fight damnit!

Anderson/Mousasi would have made infinitely more sense than Anderson/Brunson.
Yep, im still scratching my head over anderson/Brunson
Honestly a Gastellum/Mousasi fight makes more sense than Belfort/Gastellum
Gegoat will fight anyone anytime. He a fighter's fighter. I hope he sticks around in the ufc, i could see him as champ soon
JDS
orcus -Yea i would much rather see Gegard vs Anderson

I disagree. The UFC wants fighters to show up already famous, which is obviously illogical. They don't give anyone the chance to even get famous with the way they conduct business. Throwing all your marketing between two people (Ronda and Conor, in this case) means you don't have any other stars being made.
Mousasi could be as popular as any other fighter in the UFC, but they have to give him the opportunity.
Moose vs Gamebred
