Dana White has spent severals years banking on the raw star power of definitely popular man Colby Covington and let Ngannou walk, a man who's life and career would be deemed too implausible for a film.

The weird people who defend Dana as if he's their favourite fighter instead of an inept promoter don't even bother defending his lack of ability any more. Now it's just 'why didn't the fighter promote themselves? what's the promoter supposed to do? promote him or something?'

Even if Ngannou had the most boring life and personality possible you should still should have been able to make him into a giant star based on the fact that he's the most goddamn terrifying knockout artist probably ever. Glad to see Dana end up with an undeniable faceplant on this one

he's also shown that he's more than a knockout artist. Remember that early UFC fight where he scored a figure 4 submission that he'd been shown like an hour earlier? Or him winning every grappling exchange against Stipe the second time?

Speaking of Nate Diaz, Muhammad Ali has his moveset in UFC 5 almost 1:1. They might have took the stockton slaps and kicks off of him, but the punches are the exact same.

This makes me irrationally angry.
