The thing is that O'Malley was suspended for 2 years by USADA, in my opinion Garry is 4-0 in the UFC, he could fight 2 more times in 2023, but for the next year to continue his winning streak he should face someone from the top 15. He can take 2 fights against unranked because the welterweights are a wide division.

I think a couple of more fights he could level up but the danger of facing too low level of opponents is that he's not forced to correct errors such as got him tagged a couple of times in this one.

Didn't Gane not speak english when he joined the UFC and now he's quickly moving toward being fluent?

Marquez vs Barriault is a way harder matchup to predict than all the other fights

Some of my bookies are saying next fight is like 25 min away. How the **** is that possible? We went the distance in 4 out of 5 or at least almost in the case of Garry.

Turner v. Gamrot and Araujo v. Ribas are also hard to predict, so there's no way it'll be an easy 14 out of 14

I hate how they still try to act like Jon is a nice guy and show him praying and stuff. It's over man, you've been an unapologetic jerk for too long

Did USADA nerf Jon jones skills or is he just so good he doesn’t need to fight like how he use to. His physique makes me a little nervous

Was gonna say 5/5 tap favorites so far but Radzhabov was a tap dog.

I lost faith in Argentinian fighters after Prado failed me. They're lacking good wrestling skills out there.

In my opinion Dalby or Zaleski would be the perfect next opponent to continue testing Garry. Kenan Song was close to the top 15 before being knocked out by Griffin who recently fought Magny, what happens is that the WW has a very large and active roster

I’m genuinely curious how much money the UFC has to pay other regional promotions just to show a two second clip of their newer fighter’s highlights. I mean, there’s gotta be *some* reason they’re so hesitant to do it.
