We gonna get BrathA for the next 6 weeks 24/7 day and night until ufc 311 😂 I think the ufc should do a umar vs merab face off arround a table like they do in boxing like usyk vs tyson and others.... They can bring their coaches if they want too.... It has the potential to be very explosive with how emotionally unhinged merab is arround umar,

Both had their good points: >Umar was correct in pointing out how Merab refused to mention his name in the post fight interviews of Omalley fight even after being asked about it. And nobody wants to see rematches with Yan and Omalley when they clearly displayed little resistance to the wrestling dominance, over a fresh new matchup of Umar coming from a team known for their wreslting training. >Merab was right about Umar being privileged for marketing purposes, and gifted a quick route to the title shot just like Omalley was, by just fighting one top contender and thats it, unlike so many other contenders that had to beat 2 or 3 top 10 fighters to get a title shot. If Umar's name was Mike Hawk from Memphis instead of Numagomedov it would be different.

Islam's fights generate more traffic and views for the ufc than any champion currently in the ufc. He has the most insta followers out of all active fighters in ufc as well... With khamzat being in 2nd place and jones at 3rd.... Even alex pereira who everyone loves only got half of jones followers and views he generates... Showing to us how being loved doesn't necessarily means you are the biggest star. -plus Islam generates the most views on ufc countdowns and embedded, press conferences and interviews, jon jones is 2nd... And those numbers are easy to verify. The reason millions of people are intrested in Islam whether they love him or hate him is because : 1-he is the current greatest active fighter in the world ... 2-his fights are always exiting and against intresting opponents. 3- he won many super fights and beat many big stars in spectacular fashion . 4- he is funny. 5-he was always attached to khabib and khabib is the most notorious ufc fighter on earth with mcdiddy and so a huge portion of khabib's fans are loyal to Islam especially the Muslim fan base.

Umar is right, he didn’t get personal with Merab ever during the build-up. All he said was that he was frustrated all good fighters ducking him. He has a 6 win streak in the UFC. Merab also has worked his ass to make his way up. If he’s so good he shouldn’t have any problem just running over Umar. However, his temperament shows that he’s worried that the belt is going.

Crowd was booing Merab at the beginning, not letting Merab talk. Islam steps in and goes “hey, respect Champ”. Later Islam tells Merab, just fight the contender, don’t make the title look bad. Throughout the entire conference Islam says Arman is deserving and even open to a Charles rematch - walking the talk.
