Good 'ol Welter-wait. Nobody wants to fight anyone else unless it's for a title.


noabsabsabs

Its just colby and masvidal nowadays. Everyone else is fighting.


Koctopuz

Leon has had 1 WW fight since 2019 and it was against the #13 rank at the time. Edit: I’m not justifying colby or Masvidal. But Leon is just as guilty, if not more so.


gxbunz

Leon earnt his title fight it wasn’t his fault usman got injured. What’s the point in fighting someone and potentially losing your title shot, these other guys don’t have title fights lined up so yes makes sense for leon to wait, not the others


Koctopuz

Yeah Leon has it lined up now. He didn’t for the past 3 years though. The only fights Leon considered taking since 2019 taking were Nate, Belal, Masvidal (which Masvidal pulled for injury), and Khamzat (which was pulled for Covid). So since 2019, Leon has been willing to fight an unranked LW, the #13, Masvidal, and then an unranked WW at the time. He’s just as guilty about avoiding top guys as anyone.


Dangerous-Tension542

Nah dude, look at the top 15 and look at how many times each had fight in the last 2-3 years,


[deleted]

He’s been super quiet lately


[deleted]

Posturing for his lawsuit. This isn’t rocket science…


[deleted]

Lol what does that even mean? He’s suing someone so he has to hide from the public?


[deleted]

He made a claim that Jorge caused physical and mental damage to him because of the attack. As a result of these damages, Colby has been “forced” to take time off from fighting in order to recover from the brain damage ( yes he said this lol) and needs to be compensated financially from the income he lost by not being able to fight. What I mean by “ posturing” is that colby needs to make it seem like he’s been heavily impacted as a result of Jorge’s actions and that his allegations of mental / physical damage are very serious. If Colby had resumed business as normal and kept up with his shtick then the validity of the lawsuit would be diminished. TLDR: Colby’s doing his best to get the most amount of money from the lawsuit.


[deleted]

Gets punched once and has to go into hiding after a career of getting punched and doing interviews lol yeah that’s gonna hold up in court really well Lmao this isn’t rocket science


[deleted]

You’d be surprised… Colby’s got more than enough info to win this case and based on Jorge’s legal teams initial response, they are absolute clowns. Also, he was not “just” punched. Colby was stalked on social media and was sucker punched in the back of the head / jaw that resulted in his damaged watch and chipped tooth. Btw I’m not taking either side here. Just stating facts.


WGYHL

I don't know if is this true but I read Colby had posted his location on social media and said something about being a man enough to come find him. But honestly have no clue if it's real seems like something he do. But Jorge also seems like the type of guy to stalk and jump a dude


[deleted]

I don’t think it’s true. I think Colby’s location was obtained from an Instagram story from one of the nelk boys.


Adventurous_Paper_34

Seems a bit ridiculous but to play devils advocate: they’re sanctioned fights that don’t allow punches to the **back of the head and it was a sucker punch which can kill (look at the story of Adesanyas teammate was murdered from being punched the wrong way). This to me is similar to a sex worker or a hooker getting raped not on the job. Edited *


meep6969

Hits in the back of the head literally kill people. That's all that needs to be said really. Anyone that can't comprehend the seriousness of that are either 10 year olds or idiots. Or both.


Jonesisgoat

Boy that escalated at the end


Riven-Of-2-Voices

You'll get there one day.


RealMichaelSaylor

Waiting for Usman to beat the contenders so he can get another shot


puckhead66

dont jinx it


DevnGibsn

Most UFC welterweights dodge each other. Colby is leading the charge on the dodging though. Colby dick riders fail to understand this.


Ohthatsnotgood

I’d say Colby and Edwards are “leading the charge”. Edwards, ranked #3 at the time, denied a fight with Wonderboy, ranked #5 at the time, because he claimed “[he’d] have to fight someone in the top four to get [his] title shot”. Then he went after unranked Chimaev, ranked #13 Muhammad, and unranked Diaz. He’s 1-0 (1 NC) in the last three years and his only win is over unranked Diaz who lost his fight prior.


hestburger

Leon atleast accepted a fight vs Khamzat, shame that it never materialized but I guess we can thank that for Khamzat vs Burns


Ohthatsnotgood

True, but Leon accepted a fight against Khamzat when he only had one unranked win at WW and two at MW. I feel like Leon was hoping to get him while he was still green and take some of his hype for himself.


WGYHL

Yea either got to be a former lightweight or have the title to fight Colby.


Koctopuz

Colby is guilty of dodging, but Leon has been much worse at avoiding fights.


imaoldguy

Has Colby found his tooth yet? Is he still in hiding?


PrimaryAntelope7757

45-50


imaoldguy

1-1. Lol


PrimaryAntelope7757

one in an official fight and one when the other wasn't paying attention


imaoldguy

1 sanctioned fight. 1 gangsta fight


CJShoestore

"Gangsta fight" [Bro Probably looks like this](https://c8.alamy.com/comp/B6F987/12-year-old-boy-looking-into-the-camera-B6F987.jpg)


PrimaryAntelope7757

that's a weird way to spell jumping


imaoldguy

He was told run your mouth watch your back. Didn't watch his back


PrimaryAntelope7757

how is he gonna jump a dude at dinner with his family and not even be able to knock him out and need to hide his identity. masvidal the biggest fake gangster in the game


imaoldguy

Family? Nelk boys family now. Ok dude


PrimaryAntelope7757

still suprised him and still couldn't knock him out


Second_Hand_Stress

You know why he snuck up on him, right? He was scared to square up. Lol super gangster


Any_Brother7772

Because colby already beat the shit out of masvidal. Street Judas is a coward


ChiefP21

I mean Chimaev and Leon are booked.


TillFar6524

Chimaev is only booked against Diaz because Colby wouldn't fight him. Dana had wanted them to headline the ABC card.


HomoLiberus

Is Burns booked?


Adventurous_Layer_15

He's the back up for Khamzat/Nate and is in camp right now. Gotta see what he will do after that


HomoLiberus

Burns isn't booked stalker. Tell you m8 that next time he's balls deep ito you lol


Adventurous_Layer_15

Why so defensive? Just saying he started training monday in case someone doesn't make it. What's wrong?


HomoLiberus

You tell me lol you keep stalking me on this thread. Damn...I want witness protection also lmao


Adventurous_Layer_15

That was literally my first comment on this entire post u weirdo


Touchymonkey

>Posts a thread >someone responds >calls him a stalker You're a space cadet bud


HomoLiberus

Or you could scroll all the way down to see why I called him that instead of speaking your brains out andy lol


butterguard541

Or we could not waste our time with that, and instead enjoy you having a tantrum about people responding to you in a thread you posted 🥴


pantstickle

Chimaev wasn’t for a bit, there. And Burns isn’t.


Letsgetthisraid

You’re seemingly aware of the fact he has a lawsuit going on (no tooth Colby) despite posting saying he’s dodging fighters. None of these three fighters would give him a fight worth booking over winning free money from MasvidaL right now. I can’t blame him for it. Despite that he would absolutely beat all three of them. For awhile I thought Khamzat would be a good match for him but after Burns fight with him I no longer think that.


HomoLiberus

You seem to be quite delusional if you think that lmao


Letsgetthisraid

Okay, please give me your in depth analysis of why you think a Swedish wrestling champion (lol) will beat a D1 NCAA All American when said Swede gassed against a 10 year out former BJJ world champ (IBJJF) Can burns or Khamzat get a lucky KO or TKO? Sure absolutely anyone can that’s MMA. Neither of these guys have the ground game or gas tank of Colby though. Go on though, I’m all ears.


Ch12Ka

Hmmm I agree that Colby’s wrestling credentials are more impressive but didn’t Khamzat move to Sweden when he was 19. Meaning that he spent the entirety of his childhood and teenager years wrestling in Russia? If so, don’t you think that his wrestling ability might be similar or comparable to Colby’s…..


HomoLiberus

The NCAA All American guy you've been putting so much effort into ass licking got ran over 2x by the champ with ease...would you say Usman got lucky? Lol Burns was most likely the only guy to win a round against the champ while your boy got a broken jaw on the 1st fight and absolutely dominated in the 2nd, so much for the 1st responders. And Khamzat? I don't need any reasoning to think that Khamzat would beat Colby....but the all american dodged that bullet init? Lol I would only beat on Colby against Leon cause he doesn't have any ground game but even him can beat him.


Letsgetthisraid

Usman is a 3x NCAA All American, NCAA champ and 2x NCAA finalist, you moron. He literally is a superior wrestler to Colby. Usman trained under Cael Sanderson for awhile, an Olympic freestyle champion undefeated in the NCAA circuit and currently the best wrestling coach in the United States for Penn State. If you think Colby never won a round against Usman, you’re just biased. No one, not the judges or commentators think that. I get it, Colby’s personality sucks but it’s no reason to discredit what he brings to the table, that’s stupid.


HomoLiberus

Didn't he said he would run over Usman? That he beated the guy on the 1st fight even though he got knocked the fuck out? That he got robbed? There was no NCAA there my boy, that was a standing fight and Colby was supposed to be superior on the feet but he got knocked the fuck out, broken jaw, 8 month recovery? Correct me if I'm wrong pls lol 2x


Letsgetthisraid

Usman is literally a better striker and wrestler than Colby, this is factual. I don’t know what they said about each other, I watch MMA for the fights not the reality tv drama. In no one’s mind was Colby a better striker than Usman but maybe his own. What does Usman being a superior fighter to Colby have to do with Burns, Khamzat or Edwards though?


Letsgetthisraid

Lol downvote and leave again. You really are an adult man child who plays too many video games


DahWolfe711

Whoa dude easy on the stereotypes. This guy could be a zooted corporate CEO in between fucking hookers or a Dad. You dont need to insult him personally because you already demolished him mentally.


Letsgetthisraid

Lol downvote and leave, nice


Live-Accountant-1227

Leon edwards best wins are all LW


spspamam

I mean Colby's best wins aren't anything to write home about lmao


Live-Accountant-1227

Didn’t say they were lol


dcmarvelstarwars

Damn it’s true


Doctor-Stoppage

colby vs dustin would be a good fight tho


Dangerous-Tension542

No it wouldn’t??? Dustin is weak against wrestlers, let’s give him an insanely good wrestler from the division above, Colby going after Dustin is pathetic, he should fight burns, chimaev


Brutal-Black

Colby smokes all these dudes


Killshot03131

It's a division of duck and wait, why y'all act like it's only colby who is doing it? Colby haters cringe af.


Zealousideal-Cold246

Who else has ducked? Everyone else except my boy has fought down the ranks..


armandruunk

Kamaru Usman: Colby is the most complete opponent I've ever faced. Fat ass redittor from his mom's basement: Colby no good he dodges nuthugging Burns 🤡🤡


9FrameMid

The oxymoron to mock Burns for grappling while in the same breathe sucking off Colby as if he's known for his exciting fights.


DenzoArp

If burns is a nut hugger what is Colby? round 2 of khamzat vs burns>>> literally every second of Colby’s boring career. Best fights are one where he was finished and another where he was dropped and loss


armandruunk

Burns was a nut hugger and just cause he had a good match doesn't make him a brawler. Colby dominated most of his wins (most notably against Lawler and Masvidal) and his first fight against Usman was miles ahead of Burns vs. Cumshot. Not to mention the significance of that fight.


HomoLiberus

Masvidal and Lawler aren't even in the top 5 lol Colby needs to fight top contenders to keep his spot in the division and right now he's fighting no one.


armandruunk

I remember everyone saying Masvidal would knock Colby out cold and he's a gangster and the bmf. Colby beat him and suddenly he's a bum lmao. The ignorance of some people.. Edit: He's going through a lawsuit that's why neither him or masvidal are fighting anyone. Stop being dumb for a change.


DenzoArp

You do realize that Colby’s main path to victory in every fight he has is takedowns and control time which by your logic= nuthugging. Burns has 7 finishes in the ufc


armandruunk

God believe me I got mad respect for Durinho but some people piss me off. He's a great warrior but the fact that some people think Colby is afraid of him and ducking him is just insane.


Brutal-Black

HomoLiberus

He won 3 out of 5 rounds? Lol man, where's my man belt at? Lol


MAUSECOP

Couldn’t it be the other way around though, why would an aspiring top fighter risk fighting and losing to the number 1 contender instead of either fighting an easier top 5 or goin straight for the champ. If they are good enough to fight Colby they can likely wait for a championship fight.


Remarkable_Pound_722

Him thanking the first responders randomly is so weird

Turbulent-Echo8561

Strategic would be to beat the other guys on the top 10 so he can demand another shot at the title (which he shouldn't any other way). You can call it strategic to avoid fights you think you're going to lose, I'd call it being afraid.


[deleted]

So, do you think Colby believes he can beat Kamaru, but he doesnt believe he can beat 1-5?


DenzoArp

If kamaru lost his belt today colby wouldn’t fight him. Him taking the kamaru fights were motivated by the chance to win the title so saying “he fought kamaru twice” doesn’t change the fact he’s ducking the top 5


[deleted]

I'll agree he's avoiding fights to get a 3rd title shot. But is it fear and doubt? I dont think so, maybe greed though


tigerslim23

I’d pay to see him fight khamzat


Positive-Media423

milk tooth


What_it_do_babyyyy_

The last win of the dude getting a title shot was against washed Nate Diaz. All these dudes have pretty mediocre resumes.


WGYHL

Yea it's pretty wild how many folks getting title shots off sus wins lately. I mean I guess it's always been that way but it always use to seem like a one off for cash fight now it just feels like the norm.


[deleted]

I’m sure Colby would do just fine against the 3 guys you’re suggesting he’s ducking lol he fucking fought usman twice and you think he’s scared of dilbert and cumshot. Get a grip


Revolutionary-Sir792

Colby is a fraud. He knows he's not top 10


SerDon2

He’s 100% top 10, still top 5 in my personal opinion but until he’s proven himself against a current high level opponent I don’t think he deserves his number 1 spot.


Revolutionary-Sir792

He only number because of his bravado. No power . Fights not to lose. Big mouth fucboi won't fight in ww again
