Till is about to be Cody Garbrandt status, not a good fight for him at all

I dont agree that it was a fight he had to take especially given the weight class move. Good payday but risky as hell

If Gastelum KO's him or beats him decisively where does he even go from here? Really bad way to start at a new weight class given his last two losses

He's been getting a lot of interesting prospects, same with Eddie. Eddie is going to have a tough time with Dagi, and he's getting more and more hittable

You’re looking at it from a fan perspective not the fighters.

You’re coming off back2back losses but you think those were flukes based on mistakes you made.
Till is still talkin champ talk. He can still be a big star in Europe if he starts winning.

UFC offers you the #4 guy in the division who just fought for a title and he’s the smallest guy in the top 5 and you think you can turn that down?

Getting beat by Kelvin wouldn’t even be considered a bad loss :yeshrug:

I understimated how big a star Khabib is worldwide, the Khabib vs Michael Johnson free fight on the UFC channel has 12M views and it hasn't even been up a full week yet. I've never seen numbers like that on a free fight leading up to a ppv before.
