Then it sounds like maybe the UFC needs to pump the brakes on the Bo hype then eh? If he isn’t there yet let’s not pretend he is. None of those other fighters we mentioned are main carding the biggest UFc event in history after fight 4 even though they are much more proven. Kinda makes my point huh? The UFC is looking out for Bo let’s not pretend otherwise.

No clue who this Bo guy is but it sounds like the Todd Duffee hype from like 15 years ago? Remember that guy? Was supposed to be the next phenom/big thing he got savagely KOed by one of his tuneup type opponents and it was all downhill from there. Wonder what he is up to these days?

They are promoting him because they think he will be a star. He is fighting the types of guys he should be fighting at this point in his career.


They sort of slow rolled omalley and look how that worked out. It worked out very well for the UFC and Omalley. People complain about him but he is one of the more exciting fighters in the UFC at this point and has proven the naysayers completely wrong. I think they are doing similar with nickal. But what the ufc does is nowhere near what boxing does where a guy will have 20-30 fights before they start actually getting challenges.
