UFC 286 Preview

Pull no punches, press people's buttons, "Dangerous" DD is back!!! This episode's got all the details of UFC 286, live from London this Saturday. As ever, I know nothing about MMA, I'm just an armchair quarterback having the time of his life speculating. In these episodes I have two goals: 1.) To get you more excited about the card as a whole. 2.) To get you better informed about the xs and os of the fight I'm breaking down in detail. I thinlk I succeeded this time! It's a card with gems on it if not an outright stellar card by itself. I talk about them all. Then it's our Co-Main Event breakdown, moving through Justin "The Highlight" Gaethje and Rafael Fiziev's respective MMA records, a discussion of the major storylines and stakes heading into this fight, as well as the potential implications for the rest of the division in the face of a win for either man. The bulk of my analysis is statistical, and we go over the career stats of both men. Then it's the potential X Factors in the fight and both men's path(s) to victory. This one is ridiculously close. The Justin is done narrative I don't believe to be 100% true. It's tough, it's the future of elite striking in the lightweight division playing out right in front of your eyes, what's not to love!?!? Expect blood and guts. Was a pleasure looking into these men's highlights and histories for this ep, I'd highly recommend the ITP MMA videos on both! Enjoy the fights!  Peace. Love.
