Hot Takes

The most dangerous place in MMA is the clinch against the cage, and fans still call it stalling.

Khabib vs. Tony Ferguson is the greatest fight we never got. Five cancellations.

Carlos Ulberg as light heavyweight champion proves the division is wide open.

Jones vs. Aspinall never happening is the biggest failure in UFC matchmaking history.

Jack Della Maddalena winning the welterweight belt was the best Australian moment since Volkanovski's first title.

A five-round decision win is more impressive than a first-round knockout. Twenty-five minutes shows everything.

Prime Anderson Silva vs. prime Jon Jones at 205 would have been the greatest fight ever. Jones wins.

UFC 205 is the best card in UFC history and it isn't close.

Unbeaten records are overrated. Protecting a zero makes for boring matchmaking.

Jon Jones is the most talented fighter the UFC has ever had. Everyone else is arguing for second place.

Merab Dvalishvili has the best gas tank the UFC has ever seen. Not the best fighter. The best engine.

Commentary should drop the hype and call what is actually happening. We can see the screen.

Referees stand fighters up too slowly. Twenty seconds of nothing on the ground and they should be back on their feet.

Judges should have to explain their scorecards publicly after every split decision.

Lightweight is the deepest division in UFC history. Any top-ten guy could beat any other on the right night.

Max Holloway knocking out Justin Gaethje with one second left at UFC 300 is the greatest moment in UFC history.
