I wonder if lima wins will he vacate welterweight and stay at middle weight  ?

Likely scenario is he keeps both as they've allowed Patricio and Bader to do it. I like Lima but I'm bored of the double champions especially since it creates log jams.

It is amazing how lima makes 170 though. He looks like a pretty big dude.

I'm going with gegard.

Agree and I kind of hope that happens. I like Lima but enough with these double champions. I would prefer he focus on the welterweight title. Kudos to Lima for moving up.

I'm huge fan of both but yes if lima wins it would be better if he vacates either the welterweight or middleweight.  Lima is 100% a  top 3 welterweight

I would agree with all that. Feel bad for Lima as he could argue for being a top 3 but because he's not in the UFC, few think it. On the plus side, USA Today/MMAJunkie consider him number 3 and Fight Matrix as well as Sherdog has him at 6.

In my opinion i think lima would be a tough match up for usman a high level striker who is bjj black belt and has been the full 25mins . I know the zombies don't see it as a style vs style or who does what better , nope.

I use to ask the zombies ok how do they win ? I added you can't say anything about ufc big league bellator etc , actually break it down on why they do this better and that better. It is amazing how many can't answer that.

I can see that. Lima is a great fighter with a lot of tools from grappling to leg kicks to knockout power. He has a near even amount of knockout and submission wins and has only been knocked out and submitted once each with both being more than a decade ago. The only real weakness I see is mileage as his upcoming fight will be his 40th and he has been fighting since 2006.

Nope. But they'll tell you, the best in the UFC can beat anyone outside the company of any era.

Lima interview  . I will clarify though in my opinion i don't control mvp career I still do think if he wants to rematch lima he should fight the Amazovs and the koreshkovs before getting a title fight.

Agree. I love to see Page fight them or Lorenz Larkin.

I heard Lorenz is next in line

You watch ufc fan boys say lima is trash cause he lost to gegard and how he will get smashed by usman , Covington,  rivera, edwards,chimaev..

One comment  goes on about bellator feeding mousasi welterweight yes Because the ufc never allowed a welterweight to fight for the middleweight crown no that never happened.

If mousasi lost  her der  he lost to a welterweight  .  That's why he left the ufc CoUlNt CoMpEtE even though he beat weidman who is 2-0 against Anderson Silva and beat thiago Santos the same guy many thought beat jon Jones.

Yeah, god forbid someone lose, they must be overrated. Got that right, fighters move up and down all the time in the UFC, These fans are the worst. Also, when did losing to Mousasi be such a bad thing?

I will say, zombies aside, Bellator had a solid show especially losing two fights because of COVID. Rosta has a lot of potential and Gwerder is solid as well. Corrales and Girtz had a fun fight. The main event wasn't the most exciting but this was never going to be a fire fight and both guys are tough to put away. I like to see Lima possibly face the winner of Amosov/Storley next.

At middle weight you have 
John salter  
Anatoly tokov 
Rubber Match against machida.

People saying it was a shit show I think well let's see you do it better.  They go on about bellator not advertising  
1 they obviously never bothered to look I knew about it I'm not even american. 
2 maybe if these other so called mma sites  actually started to promote/talk about fights instead of what jon Jones tweets more people might know about them.

I'd wait and see if Machida can get another good win or two before doing another as he lost his last two, though they were by split decision and against elite level talent. Salter and Tokov would be excellent.

How was it a shit show? Yes, there were no finishes but that doesn't mean the fights were shit. As for Bellator not advertising, it was all over their social media platforms and website. Agree on MMA media. Who cares where Khabib stands as far as GOAT goes or Jones whining about it?
