I suck at predicting stuff but I just don't see how Arman beats him.
Why do you think Islam starts his slide soon? I don't think he's really motivated to stay at 155 that's for sure

Just age and that he’s been fighting his whole life.
Might be tough to keep going.
He might last another two years though. IDK.
Just saying it could happen any time.
I agree it’s hard to see where Arman wins though.

A choice of opponents? the f--- are you talking about?
Here, fixed it for you. For the last time dude whatever Islam says is relevant to the actual fight that's being made
It just hit me that you think he literally CHOSE him like it was a meal off a menu because he used the word "CHOOSE". Funny stuff

I used to read Bleacher Report way back and someone always did these breakdowns "3 ways X can beat Y this weekend"
Pretty much always boiled down to, by decision, by KO or by sub. I knew what I was getting into each time with it too. Boredom forced my hand though

I can't stand Jonathan Snowden. He was almost as bad as Corey. I remember years ago he wrote a whole article about what an MMA fighter said (can't remember who)but wouldn't quote whatever was said and when I left a comment about why write the article if you're not going to include all the info his response was along the lines of just know it was bad and basically called me a racist for wanting to know the quote. He's just a wrestling fan who pretends to like MMA so he can write about it. I was drinking every day back then so maybe I'm remembering wrong and I'm a lying POS.

I think Arman is the guy to dethrone Islam. He almost beat him on short notice in their first fight. That was one of the best grappling displays I've ever seen in MMA, both of them. I think Arman has improved since then and is just a little bit better than Islam everywhere. Hungrier too. It's not a lock, but if anyone is going to do it anytime soon, it's Arman.
