welterweight division already boring as hell, shyt gonna get even worse with another wrestlefukker. if ufc is closing down 125 as rumored Rizin needs to snatch up whoever can't move up to 135 and hold a grand prix tourney for Guchi.For BEN ASKREN?
Oh yeah, they thought Mighty Mouse and the flyweights were boring? Enjoy Ben Askren vs Colby, Kamaru Usman and Demian Maia, Dana. Guaranteed cure for insomnia. The man is human ambien. The only fight I'm interested in seeing is Woodley vs Askren, and that's only because I think Woodley sparks him out easy. Askren was having problems with Sapo, as @Let A Fro Be A Fro said earlier

Woodley vs Askren is unlikely. They go way back. Even prior teammates at Roufusport/ATT, they were on the wrestling team at University of Missouri.
Apparently Josh Thomson had some inside information on this last week and specifically mentioned One FC, mentioned that there will be a lot of trades in the future when promoters can't agree to terms with a fighter
Yeah, I know. It's the only fight I'd wanna see with Askren. I think he ragrolls a lot of guys easy, but it will be a chore to watch him.

WME and Dana are fukking trash personified

OG COUCH CORNER HUSTLA

Hold up, they’re trading away DJ for Askren 
It’s a gotdamn shame how they’ve done Mighty Mouse. My man is a finisher and an exciting yet they wanna trade him for a walking cure for insomnia

I haven't really followed his career as much since he left Bellator(damn job prevents me from watching random Japanese card that start at 2 AM now), but he was not a big weight cutter when he was fighting stateside. He'd cut from 183 or so down to 170, where as a lot of guys at welterweight are close to/slightly over 200.
lol why yall assuming none of this was DJ's idea? He was complacent as fukk after that Cejudo loss, didnt seem like he wanted a rematch atall.
Asian market is a better fit for DJ. He quotes anime and walks out to street fighter theme music.
Most asian athletes are small. This is only a bad deal for the UFC. for DJ and ONE FC this is a match made in heaven.

For BEN ASKREN?
I saw him vs Lima at Windsor in like 2010 or 2011 and he was nauseating.
He ain't no Khabib or Mark Coleman wrestler...he's a total "position" wrestler.
Have him get Colby out of there please though.
Yea apparently Hume his coach is an exec over there. They appreciate smaller athletes in a way America never will. He probably will make bank over there too. Heard Eddie will make 7 figures.

I can see GSP vs Askren being him vs Shields all over again.
Granted Ben is a wrestler but and Shields was BJJ, but neither one of them dudes has no striking to speak of.
GSP wrestles with Team Canada and is Olympic level....I could see him teeing off on Ben something awful.
