  • The dawn of a new era is upon us.
  • MMA is seemingly transitioning to a different era, and that's how the UFC is building up some of their fights right now.
  • If you look at the landscape, you got Dustin Poirier vs Benoit Saint Denis, a veteran vs a rising contender.
  • This month, Alexander Volkanovski vs Ilya Tapuria.
  • Charles Oliveira vs Arman Saryukyan.
  • You have Shavkot Rakhmanov rising to Leon Edwards.
  • Tom Aspinall is the interim champion right now.
  • Magomed Onkolaev is on the cusp of a title shot.
  • The middleweight division has completely changed at the top with Drakis Duplisi and Sean Strickland being the top middleweights right now.
  • And Hamza Shemaev is rumored to be the next contender to fight Drakis Duplisi.
  • Whereas a couple years ago it was Robert Whitaker and Israel Adesanya who ruled that division.
  • The bantamweight division has already changed eras.
  • With Sean O'Malley being the champion, Alexa Grasso in the flyweight division also did the same thing where she defeated Valentina Shevchenko and is now trying to keep her spot and continue this next generation of the Aaron Blanchfields of the men in Furoz, these fighters going to take over women's MMA right now.
  • Every so often we see this change in eras.
  • We saw it when Jon Jones came up and defeated that whole lineup of the murderers row, right?
  • Those old veterans, they're around for a very long time.
  • Jon Jones cleaned them all out.
  • Max Holloway doing the same thing in the featherweight division.
  • Defeating the likes of Cup Swanson, Ricardo Lamas, Joe Zayaldo, Frankie Edgar, and Alexander Volkanovsky eventually followed suit on that same path that Max Holloway is on right now.
  • In the lightweight division, we've seen it many times.
  • In the welterweight division, we saw it with Kamaru Usman and Colby Covington defeating those older fighters like Damian Maia, Robbie Lawler, RDA, Tyron Woodley, and Leon Edwards was also on that same path as well.
  • The heavyweight division has changed eras more than any other weight class because they've been around the longest.
  • Francis Ngannou and Stipe Miocic essentially defeated all those older guys.
  • The JDS's, the Cain Velasquez's, the Alistair Overeem's and established the new era of the heavyweight division.
  • And now we're past that, Francis is still arguably at the top if you just count all of MMA right now.
  • And the era we see now is with Tom Aspinall, with Gelton Almeida, with Sergei Pavlovich.
  • These times are always kind of bittersweet because we do see those older legends lose and then decline and then exit the sport.
  • We miss those days, we miss seeing their fights, we miss all the wars they put on for us, but the sweet part of it is we get to see the next generation take their spots.
  • Not necessarily their performances and their abilities.
  • Some new rising contenders can be more boring than the ones that came before them.
  • So there is a lot of weight on the shoulders of every new generation that rises up, as the fans are going to expect them.
  • to deliver on another level.
  • Benoit Saint Denis so far has been very exciting and if he can defeat Dustin Poirier, he will take that spot from him and keep himself at the top of the lightweight division.
  • Armin Saryukyan is the same thing if he defeats Charles Oliveira.
  • Then you also have Ilya Taporia who will be the next featherweight champion and the UFC's fifth featherweight champion in their history.
  • And just like Jose Aldo, he would have a lot of time to defend that belt, rack up numbers, and try to break records.
  • He has the well rounded skill set to do so.
  • It's a very tall task to defeat one of the greatest featherweights of all time.
  • And then you also have guys like Shavka Rachmaninoff, right?
  • Shavka, if he is able to keep that undefeated streak going, hundred percent finish rate, and defeat the likes of Leon Edwards, that would be a massive feather in his cap.
  • And again, the welterweight division will see an exciting king rule that weight class.
  • Throughout it's history Welterweight has never been like the funnest division, the most exciting.
  • There's been a few fun champions throughout it's time like Robbie Lawler and Komaru Usman.
  • Matt Hughes and BJ Penn were pretty fun as well.
  • Shavka could potentially try to surpass all of them.
  • And we'll see what happens in the light heavyweight division if Mogulman Uncle Live eventually becomes the champ.
  • He is rather young for that weight class.
  • He is only thirty one years old and usually does finish his opponents.
  • There are a couple blunders of a boring fight that he's had like the one against Jan Blachowicz, but if he is able to go out there and starch the likes of Alex Pereira, I think that boring fight with Jan Blachowicz will be wiped away from memory.
  • And honestly, I'm liking the new generation.
  • I think they're going to be more exciting than what we have right now.
  • I think Tom Aspinall is more exciting than Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic.
  • I think Mago and Uncle Ive is going to be hit or miss.
  • I think he's going to have some blunders here and there, but he's going to have some good knockouts as well.
  • It's going to depend on his opponents if they engage on his counter striking style.
  • The middleweight division right now has Drikas Tuplisi and I think he's a pretty exciting fighter to watch, but I see that belt changing hands many, many times.
  • I don't see Drick as holding it too long and I don't see the guy that beats him holding it for too long either.
  • Whoever that is, whether it's Adesanya, even if it's Hamza Shemaev.
  • Hamza probably has the best ability to hold that belt for a long time, but I can see him losing as well.
  • Shavka Rakhmanov I think has the potential to become...
  • the most exciting welterweight champion in history, or at least top two behind Robbie Lawler.
  • I think the lightweight division with Armin Saryukin and Benoit Saint Denis, if they are able to get that belt, I think we're going to have a very fun lightweight division continue.
  • Right now, lightweight is very fun.
  • The future seems to be bright for that weight class, and I think it's going to continue with the fans' favorites.
  • I think Tapuria is going to be probably the funnest featherweight champion since Conor McGregor.
  • I think he'll probably be more exciting than
  • Jolzi Alda was.
  • I think he might become more exciting than Max Holloway and Volkanovski as well.
  • Conor McGregor was a different thing, but he'd never defended the belt.
  • The bantamweight division with Sean O'Malley is a very interesting one right now, but it just goes to show you if Henry Cejudo cannot defeat someone like Marab Davalishvili, this new generation of the bantamweight division has a hundred percent taken over.
  • Like, it is completely taken over.
  • Aljamein Sterling's out that way, class.
  • Henry Cejudo's still there.
  • You have Chito Vera, but Chito's not old.
  • He's just been around for a long time.
  • Pedro Munoz is on the decline, Rafanchez lost to Davidson Figueiredo.
  • Davidson's older in age, maybe you can consider him a little bit of the older generation, but I count him like somewhere similar to Petrion.
  • Him and Petrion and like Marab, like these guys are roughly in the same generation, which I would include with maybe Sean O'Malley and Corey Sandegan and some of these other guys as well.
  • The flyweight division is interesting because I don't know if you would count Pantoja as a new flyweight generation.
  • Maybe you can.
  • Which means it is in good hands with Brennan Moreno and Amir Elbazi, Kaikara France, Mohamed Mokaev is on the rise, Manel Kep is there.
  • Flyweight is in a very good state right now.
  • The women's bantamweight division needs some help.
  • And I think the UFC should focus more on adding an atomweight division than focusing on their bantamweight division right now.
  • It's just hard to find women that big to have a consistent weight class going.
  • They struck gold with Ronda Rousey and I don't think they hit that again at Bantamweight.
  • But they could potentially find that next big star in Strawweight or Atomweight.
  • Look over there in One Championship right now.
  • One Championship has Stamp Fairtex.
  • If the UFC got their hands on someone like Stamp.
  • they have a mega star on their hands.
  • And I think it's more likely they'll see that next star in the lighter divisions, which is closer to an average woman's walk around weight.
  • Flyweight is in a good state right now.
  • It's definitely getting better over time, and straw weight's always going to be strong.
  • Right now, it seems like there's a lack of contenders for Zhongwei Li because of how good she is.
  • So in conclusion, I think the UFC's weight classes are in good hands right now.
  • I think the rising contenders, the future stars, they're all going to be fun, exciting, and skilled to watch.
  • I would say right now is a weaker time in MMA considering who the champions are and some of the contenders.
  • I think if a lot of the current fighters right now get replaced with the younger guys, it's going to make for a better product.
