>>18110177The crowds love striking. Guys that can wrestle fall in love with striking sometimes too. Jones submitted Gane for the belt in seconds. There’s a chance he could do this to most of his competition. Shit like that is actually harmful to your PPV buyrates.
>>18108801He obviously can’t punch like Francis. Jon has very unorthodox fan friendly striking though. He’s all Knees and elbows and spinning moves. Also the bicycle or oblique kicks.
>>18115516Pretty sure he’s an Undertaker mark. Not sure why I’m remembering that but I’m pretty sure it’s true. Blacks love The Undertaker (except Lebron)
>>18107522Not really, no. As of right now there’s no real draws. Not like Connor, Rhonda or Brock. There’s reliable draws and a lot of them are older. There are guys that fans love but their performance is all over the place. Jiri Prochazka is a guy fans love but he’s never going to be a draw. Venom Page pops the crowd but he’s old and never going to draw. Masvidal is beloved and that Colby PPV actually drew very good buyrates but he’s old and worn down. Strickland is over with fans but he’s retarded and overly cautious in his fights. He wins in boring ways the grabs the mic and apologizes. Pereira is loved by the fans but he came into UFC old and
Just lost. Volk is old and will never be a draw. You can tell who they are really pushing for: Topuria, Paddy, Gerry, Bo Nickal. Aspinall. Dana had a massive boner for O’Malley but he blew it. None of these guys seem like they will be crossover stars.
>>18108751Tweener is right. He had the Nike contract and wanted to be a face and a star but he’s a natural heel. You see what he’s like when he thinks the mic is off.
