The UFC should just scrap the An Tuan Ho/Lone'er Kavanagh fight on the contender series and add it to the UFC card Saturday. No reason those guys should have to fight for a contract when both are UFC level.

The UFC signing Alice Ardelean is a disgrace to the promotion. Probably the worst signing ever and I'm not joking. Ardelean isn't a fighter, she's a TikTok star. Ardelean has a terrible 9-7 record. She's won her last five but against who? Such a shame that the best promotion in

My main issue is the decision making of Dana White. He's a great business man but he has no eye for talent. Instead of using the contender series to find future champions/contenders it's more so to help fill out fight night cards and bloat the roster.

If it was up to you to sign three prospects to the UFC who would it be? Stay away from big-time promotion champs like Soldic, Souza, and Parnasse. Also nobody under Bellator contract. My three picks would be:

For someone that is constantly scouting talent, it's really frustrating that a lot of these MMA promotions don't stream their events or put replays up. Even the smaller orgs that put you through a paywall is just ridiculous. (1/2)

Dana didn't sign Bo Nickal cause of experience and has said a few times he doesn't sign guys in their 30s BUT he did sign Danyelle Wolf who won her pro debut on the contender series. Wolf had no prior MMA experience and was 37 at the time now 39. Make it make sense to me.

If the UFC lets Parnasse and Hughes go to their rival promotion that's a huge loss. Signing those two would be a better move than signing Kayla Harrison and MVP. I think signing the future of the sport is better than signing "names" that will give the promotion a good 1-3 years.
