    I think the Saudi Arabia card will be headlined by chimaev vs cannonnier. Costa has been saying he has fight news and that he will fight in June, but wouldn't make sense for him to fight cannonnier when jared should be in a title eliminator fight, and costa is coming off a loss to Whittaker. So, that being said, the next middleweight fights should be: Chimaev vs Cannonier, Whittaker vs Strickland, and Costa vs Imavov.

He also has 3rd most strikes p min and 4th most knockdowns p 15 mins. He wd be first for takedown defence with 100% and 2nd for sig strike accuracy after overeem if his fights lasted long enough to make 350 strike and 20 attempted takedown thresholds to qualify. Other top ten fighters incl Oliveira, gsp and Jim miller with three first each.

      In the UK it is, but globally UFC is without a doubt taking over. Not sure UFC will ever be bigger than boxing specifically in the UK.

    These fights are becoming a joke …always falling threw and ppl holding devisions to random or holding them up with BS injuries and threats to retire even if they ever do fight again it’s ridiculous

    Aspinall vs blades (co main)
    Leon Edwards vs khamzat or belal (co main)
    Paddy vs Moicano
    Then some random Filler fights will complete the UK ppv card 👍
