He would be an underdog if he actually fought anything that isn't a can
Only against the top 5, he'd be a favourite with anyone else
That's simply wrong tho. He was favorite against khamzat 6 months ago when he were calling him out. You can actually see a lot of potential match-ups odds and real odds if the fight happens, almost always the same odds. Also, you never bet in a fight so why do you comment such a r-tarded take? How do you know he'd be the underdog? Do you go and watch him spar against guys like Marvin Vettori in American Top Team? Cuz I do and I know the results.
It is very unlikely to be a Can and be in the UFC. A UFC flyweight can kill an average human.
@Thatthar899 😂 how about a ranked fighter first
@@wazedkader6617 Anyone can kill a human.
I don’t even want a guy as inexperienced as Bo to fight a ranked opponent yet but he should at least fight someone who actually belongs in the UFC
That is pretty fair out of all the unranked middleweight fighters he got like 2-7 in the UFC Jamie Pickett and val Woodburn who kinda sucks and was undersized
@@AvirxuVal Woodburn wasn’t his fault tho, his original opponent pulled out
this video doesn’t really tell the full story. pickett was 2-4 in the ufc and val woodburn was coming in on short notice up a weight class. he also groin shotted pickett to get the takedown
It’s his third and 4th fight. Of course he’s not fighting top guys.
@@oldironsides4107 yeah context is still needed. it’s a bit misleading to talk about pickett being a vet without saying his record or that woodburn was on short notice
Wow, a guy with like three MMA fights overall if fighting cans, who would've thought.
@@Darko1077 man it’s like that’s not what i’m saying
@@Darko1077Wow, you didn't read anything that he said
It's time Bo fights a Top 15 guy.
Nah he needs 1 more fight against a more respectable non-ranked I recommend Tresean Gore or Chris Weidman
@@jayherbogamingChris Weidman would be a good fight. Old generation wrestler vs the new one
Asking chat gpt for a fight game plan is crazy 😂
Asking ChatGPT for a fight plan is so incredibly stupid. Why do dumb people think ChatGPT is all knowing?
Because their too stupid to think by themselves
it's really not stupid, chat gpt uses the information from the internet so chat gpt is just giving you information you would have to spend hours researching

@@Pajamaamaama give an example then of a math definition it can not give

I believe he’ll be a great fighter but y’all be overhyping the shit outta people
the paddy hype died after the robbery so they're making another can crusher and turn him into a connor-level cash cow
it’s crazy how only few people get this… ufc fell off with these pushed prospects, trying to make fighters to celebrities. it’s cringe really. contender series fighters that get pushed and get starched, apex cards, both fighters that lost their previous fight main eventing a card. back to back women main events. i missed like 6 cards this year & i lose interest in ufc every week
and by fell off i mean, for people like me that watched the ufc for a long time, just stop watching. but ufc is growing every day because of the casuals, tik tok/ shorts content that gets attention on social media, people that only watch a ppv main card etc.
+@reeeeeem69420 You guys are just cherry picking bad examples because Nickal probadly just doesnt allign to you. I could give you examples of "pushed prospects" who made it. Like Sean O'Malley or Tommy Aspinall for example.

Because they gave him a layup on the main card because they want him to be the next Conor McGregor level star of the sport, easy.
Not McGregor but the next O'Malley. Easy fights until the big contract, fast track to title shot.
@@stanparker9556 There are no easy fights in bamtam- or middleweight rankings. Petr Yan was not an easy fight lol.
@@bjornhartmann6839 that was after the first contract.
Bo has a dry energy and he is not charismatic and energetic as Connor he will never be big superstar
The Anthony smith close up was genius
Bo has repeatedly said that he wants to collect bodies in MMA before going up to the ranked guys, but then says that he always demands to fight on the main cards. I don't know if there have ever been any fighter that is fighting a non-ranked, can demand being in one of the top spots.
His name will never not be hilarious to me 😭
Low blow nickel?
Because he’s fighting a guy who’s 1-5, 2 and 4 if you count the disqualification win from strikes to the back of the head. Brundage doesn’t belong in the UFC, this fight is disgraceful.
The ufc has plenty of fighters worse than picket. The roster is massive. They have many card fillers
anyone noticed how bo and khamzat have a very similar build. very distinct elongated upperbodies
steroids… 1 round cardio. once bo faces top 15 he will be fraud checked. same with khamzat, fighting midget burns, washed out of prime post ko usman. shavkat fought 40y old journeymen
Probably good for wrestling 🤷♂️
Cody is in decent shape and has been training , yes hes not the best mma fighter but to have him as such an underdog is always wild. Bo should be the favorite for sure but the line is so big no one deserves to be this big of a fav. Theres always a chance of DQ, Injury , getting caught , gassing out ,bad weight cut etc.
His wrestling is clearly on championship class. The thing is so far in the UFC ,in contrast to Chimaev, even ending his matches inside the first five minutes the result is usually underwhelming. Jamie Pickett gave him more troubles than what fans expected, and there's also the groin shot TD in that fight. Val Woodburn was a KO but was a short notice opponent although reminding everyone he has hands. Then we got Cody Brundage, was a step up in competition but is not really a notable fighter either. And is in this last fight that I think it's evident he is still somewhat green in the game, still struggles to put everything together. But eventually he's getting there and he's a problem to everyone in the division
I love bo hes gonna be champion asap
If he loses it will be so funny
Go Bo till he’s proven wrong! He’s onto something
Bo will be champ. That's why he's on the main card.
Ehh some striker along the way will expose him.
@@cheetonation A striker isn't going to stop his wrestling lmao wtf you talking about
@@smokestrong1000 a good striker will, bos own striking is effective because of his wrestling threat. someone like chris curtis with takedown defense and boxing can catch him
@@cheetonation nobody is stopping Bo's wrestling. Dude won multiple NCAA tournaments and had almost 100 wrestling matches before he was 9 years old 😄
@@smokestrong1000 imao soon bo will suffer the same fate as Rousey😂
I disagree with comparing ben askren to Gregor at 9:20 Ben was a one show guy but Gregor could of walked through the division if he wasn't so busy fishing and picking his fight. Ben was kind of over his prime going into UFC while Gregor was in his prime but had issues with his contract with UFC who he wanted to fight.
Its fine that he’s fighting another can but its ridiculous that he’s on the main card of ufc 300, he should be be fighting on the early prelims or at the most the main prelim opener.
Because he's fighting a can. End of the video.
Hundreds of hours of wrestling, a multiple time world qualifier and champ. You don't like that he would mutilate your favorite fighters
He’s down to -1400 on fight day
Constantly saying he has less than 6 minutes fight time the whole time really is a discredit to how good he is, to all those that aren't familiar with his career so far, go find out why he has soo little time in the octagon, its not because of inexperience 😅😅😅
Because the UFC pads their fights. Oddmakers know this and the odds reflect it.
Mr. Nutshot
let's see what he can do
Is this an AI voice or is that you?
It's just alkahawl
I appreciate the vid on Bo Nickal, I really hope that he will be top contender in the middleweight division, All luv bro.🔥
Cody Brundage was on a 3-fight losing streak, 2 of which were early finishes and 1 was a UD against the criminal himself Sedrique Dumas. He then got his arse beat by Jacob Malkoun, so bad that Malkoun ended up throwing an illegal elbow accidentally and was DQ'd, Brundage was GIFTED a win. Then in his next fight against a very green guy, cody tried to take him down and IMMEDIATELY got put in a locked in triangle, which he slammed the guy for because his BJJ wasn't good enough to stop that. Like Cody is a straight up bum who has a basically manufactured 2 fight win streak even though he's shite
"When hes had under 6 minutes of fight time" pretty sure thats a reason
Lmao Bo said he could beat Izzy and Pereira but he got lateral dropped by a dmv front desk clerk at ufc 300
I'm putting a hundo on Bumbidge
If he loses he'd be tied for biggest upset in UFC history, there's no chance he's the biggest favorite period.
Hype Train leaving the station! CHOOOOOOO CHOOOOOOOO
Over here laughing my ass off at this video after he looked like a +235
They're obviously bringing him along slowly. Probably too slowly but look at his total minutes of fight experience. It's nothing. So yeah I hope if he handles business at 300 he gets somebody in the top 15. He talks big but so do a lot of other fighters. So far his performances have backed up the hype. As far as he doesn't deserve to be on the main card, that is ridiculous. The main card is about having fights that people will pay to see. Like it or not Bo is a major star already. Can that change if he starts losing...yes. However for right now at least he's a star. If he starts knocking off top 10 or 15 talent he may very well become the face of the UFC. Especially if he keeps finishing his opponents. The crazy thing is he's never even been hit yet and we don't know how he'll handle that.
I think he deserves to be on the main card, he’s backed up talk with skill, but I think the fans deserve a better fight for 300. Bo vs someone people think he won’t steamroll.
1:10 who were they sheesh only 3 loses
Why rush a good fighter in Bo which could ruin his career
I don't want to be a hater but all this rubs me the wrong way. I want to like him more because I wrestled and my son wrestle but he is so arrogant and is getting such special treatment that's there is a huge turn off.
They do Know that Cejudo is a gold medalist at the Olympics right? How is Bo the greatest wrestler in ufc history 🤔 that makes no sense 🤔
Three time NCAA champ is very impressive arguably better than Olympic.
@Mmafanufc12 Are you high? No it is not. 3 National champions inside of America is not better then a gold medal every 4 years in a foreign sport where you have to compete against all nations. You sir are a dummy.🤦♂️
Bo’s college career was so much more impressive than what Cejudo did
Khamzat would eat him
+@thenbaplayer9485 Hamzat is an entertaining bum, yung BO was allready betting favorite over him before entering the ufc.🤫
@@bjornhartmann6839 why we need to care about betting, it doesn’t make any sense using it as it’s not a predetermined factor for you winning a fight or not
@@thenbaplayer9485 It makes a lot of sense. There is an entire industry (the gambling industry) that depends on how which fighter has what chance of winning a fight. If these "odd makers" wouldnt doing there job properly, the casinos would lose money and they cant have that. I think you are coping here. Hamzat isnt even an elite fighter, to be honest with you, even if Bo Nickal didnt exists, Hamzat still would never become a champion. Its over for you guys, seeth and cope.
boy it’s just alkahawllll
170 vs 186 ginger privilege
Because they only feed him bums
Because they always make him fight bums… the end 😂
because u arent allowed to knee a wrestler in sprawl n UFC is geared towards hugmaxxers dats why
Free money boys maybe not this fight but the moment they put against a non can
Olympic gold medalists are in the UFC. Bo failed to make the Olympic team. I struggle to agree with Chael
ana sure has his favorites. I understand he needs experience but how about some more Tyson in egining of his career. Fighting gas station attendants. He would knock them out in 15 seconds. I mean really? How is that giving someone experience? Take the bubble wrap off him Dana.
Egsactly he’s Dana’s next pet they ain’t giving him anybody in top 15 anytime soon . Costa would kill him Jared Conner , Marvin venatari, Yes

He needs to fight someone decent, Cody brundage is a actual can
+@mdkns9862 Brundage is a prober prospect on his own, who gets better every fight. But you are right that Bo needed an opponent with more "name value" so the casuals could understand whats going on.
Short and concise answer: *Dana White Privlege* his hand is being held on the way to the top by Uncle Fester
The glazing is incredible and another proof of corporate MMA (in league with UFC) pushing wrestlers a lot. Remember Joe Pfyer and most power landed in UFC'S PI? Ngannou who am I rite? Of course DC and Cejudo are talking big because guess what, they are wrestlers as well and their community is tughtly Pickett was one of the worst fighters in MW. Val Woodburn? Yeah I am waiting for actual competition and see his gas tank. You can do better.
Because he only fights cons
I honestly think brundage is a great opponent for him, especially with his inexperience. Its just kinda wild hes on the main card of 300. I get it tho, its the same reason cm punk was paid more than DJ. Your drawing power effects alot
im betting my whole bank account on this dude
dont sleep on cody brundage
bout to go bankrupt
i will also bet 13 dollars
