[url]https://www.tsn.ca/report-cormier-to-face-lewis-at-ufc-230-1.1188780[/url] It's official apparently . not a fight I want to see a terrible fight to be honest. cormier is ggonna win with ease.
UFC's a joke at this point. They have a serious axe to grind with Miocic otherwise there would be a repeat of that instead.
Poirier vs nate diaz and chris wideman vs rockhold are decent fights on the card and the real main events in my eyes anyway
The 1 positive is they have scrapped that womens flyweight title fight and we will get Shevchenko vs Jedrzejczk on the UFC231 card which should be a quality womens fight and good undercard fight under the Holloway v Ortega featherweight title fight
The overall card is pretty good it just a shame the UFC ****ed up trying to make a viable main event and have had to put together this Cormier v Lewis fight. Lewis is the number 2 ranked Heavyweight so the fight isn't as outrageous as some are making out but the fight doesn't make a lot of sense and should be an easy win for Cormier
It's 100% political. They hate Miocic and wanted him to lose. They will only give him another shot if he forces the issue by beating a top contender like Blaydes. It's an utter disgrace. They've talked about and tried to make every other fight except for the one that makes the most sense.
The division has been garbage for a while now and the UFC due to other bad decisions they made in the past such as that Woodley v Till fight they made because they were desperate for a headliner for UFC228,which meant they couldn't headline UFC230 with Woodley v Covington title fight which was the original plan and what should of happened. Lewis v Cormier is a bit of a mismatch and I would rather see Diaz v Poirier over 5 rounds and I agree with unleashthefury that Miocic should have got a rematch with Cormier
I agree Miocic deserves a rematch and he should at least have been offered this short notice option before Lewis and he definitely deserves a shot before drug cheat Lesnar
the fact a drug cheat like lesnar can just walk in and get a title shot is aa disgrace. still remember wen dana screwed hunt over with that lesnar fight.
