Clear to see what they are doing here. Cowboy is a very winnable fight but has a name also. I would have preferred to see Connor face Gaethje.
The MMA thread
- Thread starter Fortitude
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Winnable fight? Yes and he'll be a big favourite, but if they somehow end up on the ground I can see cowboy snapping Conor's arm off.

Maybe so I'm not sure. I find it hard to believe they don't give him a title shot if he wins though considering who it is. Guess we will only find out in time
Dana said Khabib v Tony is being set up for first quarter of 2020, so maybe the timing would work for a Conor fight.

I didn’t know Chookagin was fighting on this card. I would have thought after defeating Jo Jo a few months back that was like a qualifier to fight Valentina.
I know she is possibly the most boring fighter in that division and she scraped that win by a dodgy points decision but would have thought she’d wait for Valentina. Which begs the question, who is Valentina going to fight next. No point in fighting Eye again. So unless UFC do something crazy like cashing in on PVZ or Barber against Valentina it only leaves JoJo.
I read he said he wants 3 fights next year and that will be his full time focus. One will be Cowboy, one will be Nate and the other Kahbib/Ferguson. That’s what he supposedly wants or well was told one will be Cowboy.
However you would think if Nate wins this BMF belt I would imagine that will be what Conor really wants to go after.
Looks like Usman's got a piece on him.
So pumped for this. I also love all the respect fighters have for eachother on this card, none of that fake drama.

It's a great card. Lots of 50/50 fights. Plenty of eyes on Walker as this sets up a fight with Reyes en route to meeting Jones.
Agreed, so sick of all the fake, cocky, tough-guy posturing at these things.
Roberto Duran is reportedly walking Misvidal to the octagon tonight! He was at the official weigh ins. This card just gets cooler and cooler.
One of my favourite boxers ever. This is a good omen so I shall put a cheeky wager on Masvidal.
Early prelims starting now! Here we go...
Lyman Good is a beast.
Good fight
Must be juiced that guy...
He looks like he's built in a lab.
He has good genetics.
Aye, I went from sitting on the fence to predicting a Jorge win when I saw Duran at the weigh ins.Must admit I thought this BMF belt stuff was corny as feck when it was first announced. Still think it's corny as feck but I'm loving every second of it now
Why do they keep allowing Arlovski fight in the UFC.What a beast.
Daamnnn
Why are so many fighters from Coconut Creek
Because its where American Top Team gym is located. Also, there's no state tax in FL.Why are so many fighters from Coconut Creek
Ahh, fair enough. I didn’t realise that “fighting out of” didn’t mean they were born in that place.
Wow
Woah
Shahbazyan is very impressive
HOly mama 
What a head kick!
Oh shit
Edmund....coached by Edmund. One to watch (despite being coached by Edmund).
Clinical
The Armenian community did pretty well tonight.
Burgos slapping the shit out of this dude
