All of them are doing great against "non ufc fighters". Some people say that this is similar to going from professional to amateur, of course you gonna do great there.
WTF?!PFL and Bellator are not amateur MMA leagues, but go ahead and step in octagon to test how amater they are.
Let me tell you something, I think you never watched any MMA Bellator or PFL fight in your life, and you dont know what you are taking about.
You are allowed to have your oppinion, but this is end of discussion for me.
Wonder which of my words offended you so much...
Before you end this discussion, I would like to drag one last answer from you - you think that fighters from Bellator, PFL or other promotion are on the same level as UFC ?
I think you dont know the difference between professional, amateur and a guy who goes 2-3 times a week into gym for years just to "train mma" for himself.
The UFC is the biggest MMA promotion and it has the widest audience which means the company also has resources more than any other promotions out there. But this does not guarantee that its champions are always better than the other promotions. The UFC though has the resources to take the other promotions fighters when there are chances or once contracts are done. This is the only advantage the UFC has so most of us can say they have the best fighters in MMA but this is not 100% guaranteed.
An example that UFC champions may not be the best as always in the MMA is when WEC was purchased. The following year its former fighter Ben Henderson took over the lightweight division by impressively defeating UFC champion Frankie Edgar. Frankie Edgar after losing the rematch then dropped down in weight to fight for the featherweight belt, by then held by Jose Aldo, another ex-WEC. Edgar lost again.
Lets not talk about past but better concentrate on nowadays. Because I can also compare first UFC tournaments and champions and with Pride and say that they are cool too. Wanna talk about other promotion champ vs UFC champs? Ok, "lets get it on" (voice of John McCarthy). Which current non UFC champ is better than UFC champ? Besides Usman Nurmagomedov from Bellator
Crazy to see Bellator have 2 events held with only one day difference, Bellator 294 will happen at April 21 while Bellator 295 will happen at April 22. Carmouche vs Bennett should be an easy win for Carmouche, Bennett is often missed weight during the weight in. For Stos vs Mix, this should be an interesting fight.
That is really unusually for MMA. I remember One had two tournaments in one day (ONE on Prime Video 4: Abbasov vs. Lee and ONE 163: Akimoto vs. Petchtanong). But it is really crazy to see Bellator do same.
