WaitâŚit was Burns 2-3
Still Hazmat is really a 185 fighter and Burns is a blown up 155 guy that lost to Hooker who has fought at 145.
Fax!
I had Chimaev winning over Burns in a very close decision. When itâs that close you canât be mad at either decision.
Wish itâd been a 5 rounder.
I quit updating my fights that should be a draw every card starting with UFC âŚ
I thought people would be on board at this point that sometimes two guys fight it out but at the end of the time limit not enough momentum has been established to truly say one guy is the victor. Draws may not be what people want, but draws can be the most accurate way to score a close fight.
I bet Chimaev fights in Oct and thats it for this year. Nickal said he can see the Chimaev fight as a big title fight down the road. Wants a couple more fights first before fighting the top 15.
That beady eyed ginger is going to be exposed soon enough. He doesnât have the warrior skull. Itâs not built to take punishment. He doesnât even have a brow ridge. That soft skull of his will get cracked in time.
This ginger is as delusional as Holly Holm. Howâs he gonna fight with all you guys hanging from his nuts.
Du Plessis gets the title shot in Sep.
Cannonier just beat Vettori and Whittaker just lost but they are both still up there in the rankings.
Hopefully Costa vs Chimaev does get put together for Oct.
Will be a lot of fun following this division over the next year or so.
Iâm starting to think that Chimaev was busted juicing. He goes from fighting every other week to nothingâŚ
Which is it? Is he gassing at 170 because of the weight cut or is he gonna be at a disadvantage at 185 because of the extra weight? It canât be both, figure your shit angle out.
Bo Nickal wishes he wouldâve gotten the call to fight Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 294. Unfortunately for him, Kamaru Usman took that spot.
The former UFC welterweight champion will be moving up a weight class to fight Chimaev on 10 days notice at UFC 294 in Abu Dhabi on Oct. 21. Usman is replacing Brazilâs Paulo Costa, who had to withdraw from the fight with Khamzat due to an infection on his elbow.
Nickal wanted the fight and is a bit upset he wasnât considered.
âI was a little disappointed they didnât ask me,â Nickal said on his YouTube channel. âThey didnât ask me to step in there. I was expecting at least an ask like, âHey, you want to do this?â But no, just nothing from the UFC. It is what it is.
âIâm guessing they didnât want me to roll into Abu Dhabi on like 10 daysâ notice and smash their boy in front of his home crowd. Thatâs a fight that needs to have proper build up. I get that.â

As far as the fight itself, Nickal expects Usman to put on a competitive fight, even though it may seem that the cards are stacked against him.
âI think it will be competitive based on his last fight against Burns,â Nickal said. âI do think he overlooked Burns, but also Usman, heâs pretty good, a little older. ⌠For Usman, not too much upside, but I think for Usman, heâs already been a champ and defended his belt and then just lost back to back, so heâs not in a great position. But yeah, it should be a good fight.â
I like Bo but he isnât ready for Hazmat. I think he could win now but why rush
Bo will eventually get his beady little head cracked.
His last fight against a 5â8" blown up MW was a joke.
Bo is good, but heâs hasnât even really had any fights yet. He wants to step up in competitionâŚlet him fight someone who is at least ranked.
