What’s the Take on The Ultimate Fighting Championship? Find Out Now
The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is a mixed martial arts company based on American soil. UFC has held a series of martial fights over the years, thus marking its position as the world’s highest-level fighters in martial arts.
As 2019 came to a close, the UFC players put their feet on the gas, with more urge to do better in the next year. The UFC promotion announced that major bout kicks would be the next big thing in 2020. Additionally, other significant events were set to take place in Houston, Rio Rancho, and Raleigh. Las Vegas and Brooklyn were named official arena zones to host the sport.
UFC Partnership for the 2020 Fight
That said, 2020 comes with exciting chills of the endeavors of martial arts. Fans are all excited about the upcoming matchups, and the anticipated bout kicks to mark the year. For the UFC, 2020 will mark the 28th year in the history of the promotion. As such, the promotion company announced in February 2020 to partner with Dappers Labs’s Flow platform to enhance the utilization of collectibles branded by the UFC.
What does Will happen in 2020?
Well, it isn’t easy to tell of the events that are going to take place in the 2020 fight. However, like in all other sports, there’s always someone to predict what’s going to happen. As such, Dana White has something to say concerning the 2020 UFC event. White is the president of the promotion company and is also a famous figure in the eyes of many martial arts fans.
So, Dan White made some predictions about what might happen in the 2020 event. In essence, here’s what he said:
The UFC and Boxing Future of Floyd Mayweather
For boxing, White made three notable predictions. First, he put it forward that Mayweather would not continue to fight for the UFC company. While it may or may not be correct, fans will agree that there are many boxing organizations. Mayweather may not be part of the team, but he may fight a UFC fighter from another boxing team.
Similarly, White also predicted that the popular Zuffa Boxing would host a UFC event in 2020. Ideally, Zuffa is the boxing organization of the UFC.
The Future of the UFC on African Soil
The UFC has several African fighters. Of the make, Nigeria boasts of two dominant champions playing in the UFC. Even with the good African number, White still put it that Africa will not hold the UFC event in 2020. Of course, he sees it that hosting a UFC sport in the continent would be worth it, but it’s saved for the future, not now.
What’s the Take on the Diaz Brothers?
The UFC has Nate Diaz and Nick Diaz, all battling to be great champions. Nate was seen as an active fighter, especially when he took on Jorge Masvidal in the 2019 BMF Belt. However, White doesn’t think that 2020 will have him fight in any match. For Nate’s brother, Nick, his date is somehow an expected bet. It is because the fighter hasn’t fought in any game in a long time.
For Masvidal, the retreat is not a word. White also predicted that he would fight in 2020 to defend what he owns- his championship. Well, it still isn’t known of the players that Masvidal would take on. However, one can expect a one on one combat with top-notch fighters like Kamaru Usman and Conor McGregor.
Daniel Cormier and Jon Jones
As the predictions continue, White sees that Cormier will down his tools in 2021. While that may be true, the fighter may still be in the game by then. Earlier in 2019, White said that Cormier wouldn’t fight, but he did. In that case, White may be wrong once more.
Jon Jones is Cormier’s rival. The fighter has displayed an urge to move up to the heavyweight championship. For this reason, White thinks he’ll make it. The success of Jones is a long-anticipated move that is more likely to happen.
While all the above and more are predictions, some may happen, while others may not. In essence, time will tell when the next game happens.
In other news, different UFC fighters have their take on the upcoming event. Here’s what some of them have to say concerning the UFC
Khabib Nurmagomedov
Khabib Nurmagomedov has dared Mayweather to battle him in the ring. However, Khabib said he would take him on, if only he returned to the UFC.
Paul Felder
Put, Felder said he is nowhere close to retiring from the UFC. He is ready to take on an enticing challenge. In his last fight, Felder lost narrowly to Dan Hooker in Auckland, New Zealand. Though emotional, the Irish player felt a sting to get back in the game actively.
Felder has competed against top-notch players in the past years. Once I’m a while, he’s been broken in tough UFC matchups. However, he is still psyched to take on any top 5 opponents to prove that he still has the skills to fight.
Andrei Arlovski
To begin with, Arlovski is grateful to be part of the UFC still. Well, he saw his doom coming when his battle prospect, Jairzinho Rozenstruik, beat him in less than a minute. The loss almost cost Rozenstruik his career.
The fighter decided to take more committed approaches to train for all other upcoming matches. Although it is not in his power to pick an opponent, he says that whoever the UFC gives him, he will fight him to the core.
The Overall Performance of UFC
May, at times, the UFC has reminded many fans that it has many fighters who make martial arts special. Under the stewardship of White, UFC is delighted in its perfection, and it’s the ability to take on many matches with unbridled passion.
Ideally, fans marvel at every move of the UFC- from kicks, punches, knockouts, transitions to submissions. The promotion is set to deliver even more stellar results in the upcoming matches in 2020.
