Sure he works hard but so does Petr lol. Petr is probably the best striker in the UFC. And like the other reply says, he’s been fighting cans. Also when he faced an actual challenge like Chito he lost. Say what you want about that fight but Chito won. It’s hard to not pick Petr to win. I like Sean but I really think Petr is levels above him.

It’s interesting to me to hear people criticize Suga. I can’t detect a single ounce of what his haters describe. I find him to be completely authentic. My bullshi* detector has absolutely nothing on my radar about even a shred of him being disingenuous, what so ever. I don’t think he’s “playing a character” in the slightest. I see him as intelligent, grounded, focussed…honest. Regardless of the outcome of this fight, it’s easy to see how he obtained this opportunity. He’s going to be around for a long time.
