Being in the Hall of Fame I think won't make him more money. He needs to keep fighting too, all for the habit of fighting.

But his popularity is overshadowed because Pereira is the main event yet Aldo is still in the main card which I count very much. His last fight in UFC Brazil still made him look very exciting. But there are other known names on the list such as Pennington, Pena, Thompson, and Holland.  UFC 307 is still a pack of great fights.
We may be seeing Pereira fighting someone who will take him down to the ground.

^^

Aldo is in the Hall of Fame, but he's still fighting. And I don't see any publicity for the fight he's going to take part in from the UFC or the fighter himself. The focus is solely on Pereira, who has already shaved his head as usual and is in war mode! I really believe he'll keep the belt. I even saw him practicing takedowns, something you don't see every day.

Could of sworn Aldo was not going to fight anymore once he got inducted into the UFC fighter's hall of fame.
But he is on the card for this next event this week so he still has the mileage in the gas tank to go for it I guess.
It does give it a feel of an old-timers event with Roundtree being the main event, so might aswell of but McGregor in there just for kicks.

Here is the full video of that drunken livestream of theirs where it actually shows the casino's representative in the picture frame of the video placing bets aside a wild McGregor:
Conor McGregor goes LIVE and LOSES IT | FULL live stream

MMAGuru just discussed about this full video on his youtube channel just about four hours ago, so you know it is currently a hot topic in MMA news right now:
Conor McGregor Is Sniffing His Career Away? He Will Never Fight Again? CRAZY LIVE STREAM REACTION!


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0UlWl67DLc

What the heck!

I like the first part where MMA Guru is trying to impersonate Connor McGregor. It was a bit funny and I do hope he got the accent and the high pitch voice too as it could've been perfectly done. In fact, the whole video of him is hilarious.

I think Connor was drunk and he is always screaming on that livestream. Did he even know that he is live?  
Anyway, I think he got the attention of many but the reactions are different and many people really dissected that livestream because he did so many things and said a lot of things to popular people in sports. I am not sure if he was on drugs that night but MMA Guru said something about it too. Who knows?!

Salute! to Renato Moicano he is surely fixed in the fight that Benoit Saint-Denis doesn't know what is going on, the sole focus of him getting those advantages against Saint-Denis is really remarkable controlling the fight well-roundedly is something that many didn't expect from Moicano he has said that he will return in the octagon with his best condition and that he is the best and will dominate his division for sure his interview in the Octagon with Joe Rogan was really hilarious and a must watch if you are a fan of Renato Moicano here is the link.

Great! I really love this one and Alex Pereira will be fighting Rountree for me is a treat right now here are the fights that I think will surely be great to watch in this fight card

Alex Pereira  vs.  Khalil Rountree Jr.
José Aldo  vs.  Mario Bautista
Roman Dolidze  vs.  Kevin Holland
Ovince St. Preux  vs.  Ryan Spann

Right now I will be for Alex Pereira even though Khalil Rountree Jr. is good with his knockouts I think Alex Pereira is even better as a knockout artist for Jose Aldo vs. Mario Bautista I like Jose Aldo even though Mario Bautista is younger I think Aldo can still get a win but I will look further into this fight and I really like to see Aldo fight again, Roman Dolidze  vs.  Kevin Holland I will be for Kevin Holland in this fight as his best friend is the champion right now while Ovince St. Preux  vs.  Ryan Spann I will be for Ovince St. Preux for this one

Wow, José Aldo is so down in his marketing that I didn't even know he was going to fight. I only found out because I just read about it here. But if you think about it, his shine is off due to the main fight. Which, by the way, I really believe will remain with Pereira.

UFC 307 is next. Get your wallets full and ready.

Kevin Holland, hmm I think I will bet for him. Alex Pereira for my main event, and I am risking my money for Julianna Peña who is the underdog of that fight. Aldo is also an underdog against Bautista so I might pass on this one. I don't know, I feel like Aldo could still surprise us so I am taking the safety route.

Good luck with your bets everyone.

Moicano accused MMA journalists of being French lol and he was complaining the commission is keeping his rank down which he claimed he should have been in the rank 6th in the LW because of the winning streak he did up to his latest win. Somehow I could agree with him about this rank squat that fights do without fighting for years.


He promoted the Duelbits since the promotion of Chandler vs Conor. Now that it was canceled, he is up to Belal.
However, it's not reasonable to also grant Conor a fight against a champ without having to prove himself worth it. If it's just for money though Belal could accept the fight win or lose it will be a huge paycheck for him.

Heard about Moicano coming into this fight injured just yesterday too.
If he can perform like that with a dislocated clavicle then I would like to see him fight fully healthy.
That would be the money show.

Did anyone else see McGregor on a sponsored crypto casino apparently drunk during a livestream event the past couple of days?
Conor McGregor goes absolutely wild on drunken livestream

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BqL4JRA3tY

Not sure if this was for publicity since he making himself into a joke at fighting for the UFC at this point.
But it seems like he is trying to get attention for saying he wants to fight Belal.
And what is funny now is, Belal is saying he won't take the fight because it is just sad to fight a broken down McGregor.
Don't know what he is thinking because that would be the biggest payday of his career.
Before winning the title, his name wouldn't even come up in the same sentence as Conor.

I think Moicano was deep in concentration. He started way too strong that BSD might be surprised for a bit so the takedown happened and that's it.

This impressed me more.

https://x.com/KevinI/status/1840211733165592783
But his shoulder already looked like that before the fight so there's a chance it was injured more while they are fighting.



Man, BSD cannot do anything on that ground and pound, face all bloodied and when the first round is over you will definitely see it's going to be over in the next round with that big cut in his eye.
Nobody wants to end the fight like that but still Moicano was going to win it anyway even if it ended in the final round. BSD cannot see on his right side anymore and that's going to be a problem.
It was a fight night but damn, it looks like a UFC 30"?" because of the fans.

@rdbase Congratulations. That's brave taking the underdog.

Many have thought that the power of Benoit Saint-Denis is enough to defeat Renato Moicano and I aswell have bet for Saint-Denis in this fight but the underdog prevailed in this fight because Renato Moicano really outsmarted Saint-Denis he is relaxed and was really dominating a bull like Benoit inside the Octagon for me he is really well rounded I really admit that I was wrong with the age of both fighter and though that the power of Benoit Saint-Denis will prevail in the fight but the majority was wrong as Renato Moicano is a more calculating fighting in that match and I like it.


I think I have become a fan aswell, for sure Renato Moicano has leveraged himself after his fight against Benoit Saint-Denis a well-rounded fighter but Moicano has shown his wittiness inside the octagon and I think this is another stepping stone for Moicano for me I think Paddy Pimblett will just be a walk in the park for him as the last fight of Pimblet did not go that well and for me Pimblett was exposed in that fight and checking the fight of Moicano we have seen a much calculating Renato Moicano against Benoit Saint-Denis.

I couldn't come up with that Ailin Perez on my list. 17.75 is worth it. Congrats. A few bettors also said Moicano would beat BSD. Too late to change my stance but yep the guy is very political.

Paddy Pimblett against him seems a good match compared to Connor. Paddy's fighting style has matured already. Maybe not as experienced as Moicano but must be worth watching.

Another bet for the account! Moicano did very well in the fight, leaving the Frenchman's face unrecognizable and Moicano always surprises in his final discussion. I think it's incredible that he simply isn't afraid of the fighter or the audience and says whatever comes to mind. But I'm happy with my analysis.

Guess I was one of those lucky bettors on this UFC Paris


Moicano made more fans there with his speech than when he first arrived in France:
Renato Moicano Warns Paddy Pimblett, Conor McGregor Against Taking Fights With Him | UFC Paris
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJhsR1xOuBs

He even mentions on why he promotes bitcoin on his podcast all the time. Because he views it as way to escape from these tyrannical government where they are just enslaving their citizens.
I can name a few people who are the exact same as him but I won't get into that here as this is a UFC thread and not a political discussion.

It was a terrible loss for Benoit. A bettor who won parlay in this card must be the luckiest. The first round alone seems to have already made it clear that Benoit is losing. The home-court advantage doesn't apply in MMA, lol. The guy is from France, and he just disappointed the fans, who were expecting him to be the most aggressive in the fight. Or it could just be that Moicano is really in great shape despite his age.

The most amazing interview of all is what Moicano said to French President Macron  I lost my bets but the interview made my day still.

This coming fight night is going to be interesting for sure as I really like this fight card and right now it is starting I have bets for all fights but I only got a shot for the main card

Renato Moicano VS Benoit Saint-Denis

For this fight, both are well-rounded fighters I really like Renato Moicano but in terms of who's going to win in this fight I am leaning towards the younger fighter and that is Benoit Saint-Denis for stamina and power this fighter surely is going to last when you go with their winning with the submission for sure Moicano has only the single digit as for Saint-Denis he is both good with Submission and his stand fights are not bad either as he surely got the most power when it comes to Renato Moicano so my bet is Benoit Saint-Denis.



Nassourdine Imavov VS Brendan Allen

For sure the ground game of Brendan Allen will be tested against this fight as Nassourdine Imavov is one that has great wrestling and his stand-up is not slack either, both have the same reach and Nassourdine Imavov also has the height advantage for sure Allen will test his ground game in this fight so maybe he will finish the fight face to face and Imavov will surely not going to make that happen as Nassourdine Imavov is great with his counter-attack for me Nassourdine Imavov will win this fight.

^ They say Moicano's losses are due to the pressure fighters he encountered who also have KO power and a tank that can last 5 rounds of constant barrage. This is somewhat of a vulnerability of Moicano and BSD has this ability to last and can pressure Moicano for as long as he still standing. While Moicano is also great at grappling, the difference is how long can he last against Saint-Denis in rounds of submission attempts.

Very early UFC event happening in Paris so technically can not call it a fight night.
Put in my bets early enough before the first fight starts:


Moicano odds had dropped a tad but does not deter me to place a bet on him as the big underdog from the very start.
https://sportsbet.io/sports/mma/matches/today

I liked Nassourdine Imavov, Bryan Battle, Allin Perez and Fares Ziam so added them for this UFC Paris as an acca.

The advertisements before the UFC Fight Night are mostly the slapping contest, if you don't like it, just press the skip button. I actually am entertained so I let the ads be finished.

Thank you for the link @rdbase.
Whenever I watch what UFC has done before and after the ceremonial weigh-ins, it gives me goosebumps. This is where we might see our idols on the road and I know some of you did see them but just could not get the words out of your mouth.

I've read a lot of comments and I know BSD is the heavy favorite for most of the gamlers but I would not underestimate Moicano if he want to win this match. Give him a good beating that could tell how dominant he is to scare the next opponent.

^^
Gane last I heard was filming a movie and wanting to take his career in the direction of acting sort of like the rock had done.
Might have been a documentary but I wouldn't be surprised if it was of a bigscreen film since the people in France see him as superstar regardless of his loss to Jon Jones.
I believe that was when he last fought and it was in Paris aswell.
Would also expect Manon to be on this card but it is a Fight Night so this doesn't appeal to those bigger names who have already starred in UFC Main Events and won't go back down to just fighting on these type of cards.
