Happy Tuesday!
It’s that time of the week again.
Hit me with your best questions below.
As always, everything and anything goes. I’ll answer ‘em on Wednesday’s show.
Again, try to keep them short and sweet, if possible. That increases your chances of having the question answered.
And remember: my mate Louis Gilmour is the mod around these parts, and his job is to select the best 21 or so questions. Good luck, and make ‘em count!
See you TOMORROW on the MMAFightingYouTube channel!
Ayu-bo-wan Ariel,
Today marks the 9th year anniversary of T.J. Dillashaw finishing Renan Barão, for the 1st time to win the bantamweight title. One of the biggest upsets and one of the biggest betting underdog wins in MMA history.
Can we talk about the "Baron"? Before he got beaten that night, he was the No. 3 ranked P4P fighter in the world. He was on a freaking 32 fight winning streak. Which included 9 fights under Zuffa. People go to his Wikipedia and see a bad run to end his career and give no love to what he achieved. Can we show some love to the "Baron"?
PS : I hate it when people take fighters' accolades away because of a bad run. Anderson Silva, B.J. Penn, and Tony Ferguson are a few that face the same fate.
Is it possible for PFL to succeed with a PPV model? Once they announce the date that Francis is fighting, won't the UFC just counter program with a SUPER stacked card? I don't see a scenario where the UFC doesn't utterly destroy the PFL if they go head to head on PPV.
Putting Francis on ESPN makes much more sense imo.
