Max Holloway vs. Brian Ortega title fight set for UFC 226 in Las Vegas

Going all in on Blessed

Black beast in on the card against Francis that should be enough press conference highlights to sell the fight.

Nah both these fighters suspect to me. Has Lewis even fixed his back yet. Francis got exposed something serious last fight. these nikkas can headline the fox prelim

The rematch yeah that might work.



I know the match ups... I’m looking for drama/headlines... fighters who gonna talk build the marketing up for this card.



You’re missing my point. From a hardcore point of view sure. Marketing wise who is making noise for the casual fan? There isn’t really any bad blood/animosity yet between any of these fighters for the UFC to market off of.

Then I don't really know what else you're expecting, the only UFC fighter that can really sell a fight at this point is McGregor.

lol its DC vs Stipe the best fight UFC can book besides Mcgregor vs Khabib. Nobody fits this description.

Colby Covington seems to be the biggest talker at the moment but theres no proof of that actually generating a buzz

Um UFC did a whole series on FS1 last year called The Evolution of CM Punk. He’s been signed for like 2 years and the name has never been an issue lol

Nah that special was called The Evolution of Punk. Not CM punk. And he’s booked on cards as Phil Brooks.

Anyway somebody already said he owns his name. Still don’t think that’s a real poster tho
