That first fight really does sum up his career. Close, but not enough.

How was Gus ranked above Smith ?
Honestly , dude was an overrated injury prone flop imo. Good job putting up a good performance against a peak coked out Jones. Otherwise he ain't shit, the best fighters he actually beat was over the hill Shogun and Texiera ...let's think about that for a second.

Hell nah, he got choked out by Phil Davis. That was his first L
I mean, Anthony Smith's biggest wins were really over the hill Shogun and Rashad, and Volkan, who is probably on the same level as the likes of Jan Blachowicz and 2017 Glover if we're being honest.
Also because light heavyweight is such a trash division that everyone outside of Jones and DC are useless.
Gus fought once in 2017 where he beat Glover then got absolutely worked by Jones as his only fight in 2018
Smith at least destroyed 3 dudes in 2018 then put up a not as awful of a performance against Jones.
Gus being #2 was a joke regardless of how shitty that division is.

Bad week for 205 jobbers:
Gus retired,
Manuwa retired,
King Mo retired.
King Mo will always be remembered for popularizing the term "Moneyweight" when asked what weight he prefers to fight.

Going by current importance, probably Gegard Mousasi?
Mo was always a dude for me that I liked more because of his personality then the fighting.
Good on the radio too.
AND he is a great example for a doing a "Hendricks", a good wrestler that falls in love with his Boxing and then falls off.
(he also tested positiveness for an anabolic steroid)
Gustafsson has been having neck,back and hip issues going back years. He wasn't sitting out trying to get Jones he's been dealing with injuries majority of the time.
Beating Gegard for the Strikeforce title. As terrible as the fight was, and even though it's most notable for breaking the record of least fucks given by the sport's most infamously frugal fuck-giver, Mousasi was considered the best LHW outside of UFC and looked at as a contender for best in the world at the time. Sure we reevaluated that ranking after we all realized Mousasi might not have realized takedowns are a legal technique, but that fight made Mo's career.
I honestly forgot those two even fought each other. That's definitely a bigger name than his Rampage win.
So is this going to be the usual 10pm start time or will it be in the afternoon?
Being in the afternoon would be nice :p
is dustin a better striker than conor?
if not, he has almost zero chances.
he knows jujitsu but i don't think that can help against the wrestling and sheer strengh of khabib.
he probably has more power (debatable) but he is not precise like mcnuggets.
i know that mma math doesn't work like that, but still...

punchers chance.
Beyond a miracle i almost feel bad for Dustin having even gotten an Interim belt just to have it beaten off him.
So AJ Agazarm is set to fight a guy I used to train with, Jacob. Dude is all together 4-6. All those wins were as an amatuer fighter, hasn't won a pro bought. Makes me laugh because AJ talked so much mess when it came to denying jiu jitsu fights yet here he is in bellator taking gimmie fight, against a complete random.
I really have no idea who to pick for that fight. Moraes seems to have settled in and become a killer again, and he should theoretically be the bigger fighter, but Cejudo is coming off of beating two dominant champs in a row. It's 50/50.
AJ only has a job because either Nick or Nate corners his fights.
OP
OP
Definitely feels underpromoted considering it could be one of the best cards of the year.
He wants to be th greatest of all time because he has a gold medal?
Two belts is an achievement but hes acting like he already won the belt.
His interviews and all have made me root against him.
Let him lose he can keep that Gold medal.
And then say the only reason he has that Gold is because Tony wasnt competing. Followed by claiming the medal for himself.
Followup question:
Whats the Gold medal for?
Tough choice between Moraes vs Cejudo. It's 50/50 for me too. But I bet y'all didn't know Cejudo has an Olympic Gold Medal.
Sweet Jesus.
Did he think it was the faceoff where the crowd is there to cheer at pretty much anything.
This was awkward as hell silence in the hall dude in a crown shows up?
Saved by Cowboy looking swagged the fuck up
