UFC weight division

Which puncher deserves the title of Fighter of the Year from UFC? (Part 1)

2020 has passed with a lot of changes in the sports world in general and UFC in particular, and this is also the time to select the best boxers of the year at the world’s No. 1 MMA.

Fighter Of The Year is a noble title from the UFC. This category was created to honor the boxers with outstanding achievements, creating a great influence at UFC for a long year. Conor McGregor, Daniel Cormier, Jon Jones, Jorge Masvidal … are all excellent names that have won this title over the years.

For example, as a fighter of the year 2019, Jorge Masvidal had to have 3 consecutive KO / TKO victories, winning the fastest knock-out in UFC history (5 seconds) with the BMF belt, attracting a large number of fans. fan for himself in particular and UFC in general.

Israel Adesayna

Among the few boxers with an unbeaten record in the MMA (20 victories), the Nigerian Israeli Adesanya boxer is a rare talent at the UFC.

Opening 2020, Israel Adesayna had 5 tedious matches with Cuban general Yoel Romero at UFC 248, winning the consensus score. After the match, Adesanya was immediately criticized as the champion with a very safe, unattractive style. However, the overwhelming defeat of Paulo Costa at UFC 253 almost erased that criticism.

Izzy’s overwhelming victory over Paulo Costa

With his superb kickboxing technique, Adesanya achieved an overwhelming victory, knocking Costa down and smashing his opponent’s lack of humility.

Originally expected to be “Fighter Of The Year” by President Dana White himself, Adesanya’s easy victory over Costa caused both White and the audience who criticized him to reconsider his assessment, admitting the boxer. Nigerians are the new star of the tournament.

Deiveson Figueiredo

Deiveson Figueiredo is a Brazilian-born professional MMA fighter with 20 wins – 1 loss

Deiveson Figueiredo is a Brazilian-born professional MMA fighter with 20 wins – 1 loss, he is currently the current Flyweight champion at UFC. In 2020, Deiveson had 3 consecutive wins with the same draw. They all opened with a confrontation with Joseph Benavidez for the vacant Flyweight UFC weight division. At this event, Deiveson was overweight, despite winning TKO in the second half, but he did not win the championship.

After more than 3 months, returning to the rematch, Deiveson performed even better. In the last minute of the first half, he defeated his opponent with an impressive rear-naked-choke and became the new king of the Flyweight.

Charles Oliveira asked to contest the winner of Conor vs Dustin

With 8 consecutive wins when overcoming Tony Ferguson, Charles Oliveira now has complete reason to request a title.

Just three matches, Charles Oliveira had the most important victory of his career against Tony Ferguson – who was once considered the biggest challenge for Khabib and the candidate for the light championship when Khabib retired.

Winning Tony Ferguson, Oliveira took Tony’s position as Justin Gaethje did at UFC 249. The Brazilian glove wants to have an instant title soon. Charles Oliveira showed himself worthy of appearing in the Top 5 of lightweight UFC weight division and title competition.

Charles Oliveira’s choice makes perfect sense when Conor vs. Dustin is considered a match to select candidates for the championship. UFC 257 only 1 month left, this is the perfect time for “Do Bronx” to rest and prepare for the next steps.

Conor vs. Winner Dustin at UFC 257 is the rival Oliveira wants most

The fact that Khabib has not yet returned makes the boxers of the same class more eager than ever. Because they understand that at this point, just one mistake can make their chances for the next year go to smoke.

Tony Ferguson threatened to quit if Charles Oliveira was overweight at UFC 256

Tony Ferguson suddenly brought up the conditions before the Charles Oliveira confrontation at UFC 256. Meeting Charles Oliveira at UFC 256, Tony Ferguson continues to have a difficult challenge after losing a knockout to Justin Gaethje in May.

Standing in front of a boxer who has 7 consecutive wins, “Grandfather” insists that he will not give his opponent a chance to stand up if Charles Olivera is overweight, the act “Do Bronx” has suffered many times before.

Tony Ferguson’s threat is somewhat redundant because of the previous 4 times overweight, Charles Oliveira was playing in the Featherweight, a time when the fighter was still struggling with a string of victories continued.

Since 2017, Charles Oliveira has officially moved to the light league with 8 wins – 1 loss. In particular, not only in the forte of tightening but recently the standing skills of “Do Bronx” have also improved greatly – the reason why he is considered a worthy opponent of Tony Ferguson.

Figueiredo vs Moreno: The title defense match quickly scheduled for the UFC 256

With a blitz at UFC 255, champion Deiveson Figueiredo decided to take on the next challenge in just 20 days.

On November 22, just a few hours after champion Deiveson Figueiredo’s title defenses had ended, the UFC immediately announced the deadline for his next assignment.

And more than the audience’s prediction, Deiveson Figueiredo not only confronted the first ranked puncher in the same UFC weight division Brandon Moreno, but both will meet at UFC 256 on December 13.

Deiveson Figueiredo’s second belt defense match is scheduled in just a few hours

The announcement was confirmed by ESPN media after the UFC 255 post-event press conference ended. According to this unit, Dana White had the idea to keep Deiveson Figueiredo in Las Vegas without leaving the boxer to Brazil, to be ready for UFC 256.

A similar proposal was made to Brandon Moreno and the consent was immediately reached. Thus, the audience will witness a title match where both boxers have just finished their match 21 days earlier.

At UFC 255, Deiveson Figueiredo defeated challenger Alex Perez with a guillotine grip in less than 2 minutes. Similarly, Brandon Moreno also won against TKO when his squeeze created a shoulder injury against rival Brandon Royal. Most people believe that the quick wins are the motivation for the two boxers to confidently receive the match schedule so quickly.

Both Figueiredo and Moreno have not so much victory

The reason, UFC is urgently implementing this schedule because the UFC 256 event is in a very poor period. Chairman Dana White has also confirmed that the title match between the chicken champions Petr Yan and Aljamain Sterling will not take place due to the personal reason of the Russian champions.

Currently, Deiveson Figueiredo vs. Brandon Moreno is still temporarily proposed as the main match (Co-Main Event) for the UFC 256 event. During this rush period, it will be necessary to bring a title match to this event and have a high lure effect.

Looking back at the weight change process of Conor McGregor (Part 2)

UFC 205: Launched and won the light belt 155lbs

At UFC 205 after finishing the rematch Nate Diaz, Conor officially launched the light-weight 155lbs with an unfinished goal from UFC 196. At this event, the audience saw the most “fit” Conor from the time they got on the scale to the stage. Not a bit of fat, no water cutting, no need to gain too much muscle, most people consider lightweight to be the best weight for you.

UFC 205 witnessed the perfect Conor at 155lbs

Defeating Eddie Alvarez from the second half, Conor McGregor officially wrote a new history as the first two-weighted champion in the UFC, opening the “Superfight” movement later.

Reaching the peak at the UFC was also when Conor made a walk through the Boxing floor, where he also took the stage with Floyd Mayweather at 154lbs, equivalent to his weight when ascending the throne.

UFC 229: The Great War 155lbs

With the noise created with Khabib, Conor continued to have the opportunity to compete with the defending champion after more than 1 year of absence. Although he returned to the forte level, both Conor’s body and ability to perform against Khabib were not equal to the previous match with Eddie Alvarez.

UFC 229

UFC 246: The first time reached 170lbs

Although at UFC 196 and UFC 202, Conor played as a Welterweight semi-mid-tier match, however, until UFC 246 met Donald Cerrone in early 2020, he officially reached 170lbs. This is also the time when the audience witnessed a massive Conor McGregor ever when stepping on the scale.

The audience will witness the third time Conor is present in this UFC weight division, however, the audience once again doubts that weight loss affects his ability to play. Because in the photos shared recently, the Irish puncher is still very muscular and has no signs of weight loss.

When Khabib announced his retirement, the Irish superstar is still considered to be able to dominate the lightest rank among the top fists. This is also the premise that brought him back to the glorious period when he was crowned four years ago, continuing with the blockbuster matches with other opponents.

Looking back at the journey to win the title of the Teofimo Lopez (Part 1)

Let’s look back on the challenging journey until the four most prestigious championship belts are unified, boxing by Teofimo Lopez.

Entering the match with Vasyl Lomachenko, Teofimo Lopez was of course underrated the puncher standing in the top group of the best Boxers in the world (pound-for-pound). Comparing the history of the game in every arena, Lopez is not as good as Lomachenko in terms of both the number of wins and the performance of the opponents.

Teofimo Lopez was of course underrated before the match

Right from the first match as a professional, Vasyl Lomachenko was favorably competing for the WBO world title. This is a special incentive for one of the winners club mma, who just won 2 consecutive Olympic gold medals when he decided to specialize in professional boxing in 2013.

Since then, Lomachenko’s defeat generals have been big-hearted punchers in the lightweight categories, from Olympic gold medals such as Guillermo Rigondeaux, Luke Campbell to the “big hands” like Nicholas Walter, Jorge Linares to all fail to defend against Lomachenko’s highly calculating style.

On the side of Teofimo Lopez, the boy born in 1997 almost missed the chance to enter the Olympics when he could not represent the US team to play. Until moving to Honduras, “El Brooklyn” also stopped only when losing the match against HCB Sofiane Oumiha.

Teofimo Lopez almost missed the chance to enter the Olympics

It was not until the 15th match, just before the confrontation with Vasyl Lomachenko, that Teofimo Lopez had a taste of the IBF World Belt when he defeated Richard Commey in the second half.

At this time, the view of the audience with Teofimo Lopez is still very strict. They judged him as well as some other heavy-hit punchers that Lomachenko had ever faced. He took advantage of his strength, his ability to launch like a hook, to hit (uppercut) thunder to “bully” the opponent. Lopez likes to rush in to attack, using the speed to force the opponent to fight his youth.
