Over their entire MMA careers yes, but both went on similar runs to the ones Lobov has had in the UFC and didn't get cut. Both only won around 2 of 8-9 fights, and i only used them as an example because they were the first that came to mind when i thought of fighters on terrible runs. No doubt there are other fighters with worse records than those two and even Lobov but no one knows who they are.

I hope it's not true. It has to be Tony.
I think of this happens, they'll give Tony a fight against McGregor, which has far higher benefits than any championship belt.
As in Khabib wants to fiight GSP for a big money fight and wants the fans to get on board to inspire Dana to actually entertain the idea.
Fight week! Can't wait for the Stylebender's show.
WTF ? Might Mouse leaving for One ?
Yeah man, done deal. It was discussed a little bit a couple of pages back.
The 125pound division future lies at the limbo right now.
Want to see Tony v Khabib myself, but if this happens then it points to that rumour from a few months back about Khabib wanting to fight McGregor & GSP then retire being true.
Unless I'm mistaken, I thought it was GSP and Ferguson.
I seen this rumour over the summer before the McGregor fight was announced or had just been announced. You might be right Ferguson might have been involved in it as well. Either way it seems like he won't be fighting for too much longer. I think his dad has been saying for a few years he wants him to retire from MMA at 30.
Yusssssss!!! Kahbib will be running scared.
Calling out everyone. They on notice.

Dana must love him, he's already got himself linked with everyone of relevance
Loves him
Is the event this weekend worth sitting up for?
Can't say i'm too interested in any of the main events to be fair.
DC will crush a fat guy, and Weidman doesn't interest me at all, in fact i think he's very overrated (if anyone rate him at all).
Any other fights worth checking out?

The last Stylebender Adesanya is always fun to watch. The guy is a Phenom.
Julia Arce vs Sheymon Moraes should be a good one.
Vannata, Shane Burgos, can't remember a boring fight with those involved.
Cool, i'll check the schedule to see when they fight, i work till 3am local time, which is usually about 4 hours before these events end, so it's no problem staying up.
Might even bring some beers back home from the pub i work at
I've been sending my brother's wife all around NYC to meet the fighters.
fecking awesome.
pd. Thank you Jimmie, one of my favorite fighters.
How do you even begin to drive when you're that drunk.
When is UFC 230 on in the UK? The website says 2am Saturday... which would be in a few hours time. Surely that's not correct?
They may be confused because it's saturday in USA.
It'll be 3am Sunday morning.
Ah the usual then. Thanks!
Anyone excited for the card tonight then?
To think this card originally was looking like -
Jones vs. Gus (heavily rumoured)
Poirier vs Diaz
Rockhold vs. Weidman
Romero vs. Costa
Jacare vs. Branch
Brunson vs. Adesanya
Arguably one of the best cards of all time, compared with the card we ended up with, it's quite depressing. Shit happens in MMA I guess. I got DC, Jacare, Branch & Adesanya. Haven't heard of Roberson or Marshman, but Marshman is British so I'll go with him lol.

Can't see anything but a comfortable win for DC tonight.
what about Weidman vs Jacare?
Weidman has been KO'd in 3 of his last 4. But this is a must win fight for him, at his backyard. I think he gets the decision.
Early prelims started already!
Shane Burgos got dropped early on the 1st round, but reacted quite fast and got the submission. Good stuff.
Frevola vs Vannata next.
