Ayu-bo-wan Ariel,

The oldest fighter to win the welterweight title is Tyron Woodley, at 34 years of age.

Looking at the current top welterweight contenders,

Usman turns 36 this year.

Colby is 35.

Khamzat is not in the division.

Belal turns 35 this year.

Burns turns 37 this year.

Masvidal turns 39 this year.

If any of these fighters manage to win the title, they essentially will be making history. Do you see it happening or are they just too old for the younger crop of welterweights?

Hey Ariel,

I’ll keep it simple. What is going on with UFC judging? It’s been really bad lately and it feels as though there is no path to a solution being even looked at. It’s something that has basically ruined boxing as a sport and I don’t want to see the UFC/MMA going down the same road. In your mind how do we fix this situation?

Connor
