UFC’s Calvin Kattar sits down to discuss the state of the featherweight division and provides his thoughts on every fighter ranked …
you do some crazy last fight yeah what’s his real name okay yeah I thought it was Bruce Leroy’s name all right what’s up everyone I’m Calvin cater and today we’re going to break down the featherweight division Alex caseras AKA Bruce Leroy I love the the swag the funk um brings something fun and exciting to the the division you can never really count them out and uh funfighter to watch for sure it’s in Barbosa tough as they come had a string of you know losses the last couple fights out but there’s nothing to take his his overall uh you know cage presence guy’s an animal and always excited to see it’s in Barbosa fight Dan ige a lot to say about him tough competitor but more than anything man you think he’s just a great kid and and his whole team you know they’re a different breeds of the closest thing to back home that I got for training partners and I’m really excited to see this kid do good I’d hate to fight him again really rooting for this kid to go and get a w because he deserves it Sadiq Yusuf I think I remember seeing him fight Arnold Allen it was a hell of a fight pretty close I think he won most of the fight just got caught with some bigger shots towards the end of the rounds or something on those lines tough kid definitely climbing the ranks no matter what on the setbacks they happen as part of the game but I think he’s going to be the type to bounce back every time Bryce Mitchell he’s consistent persistent my man got his camo shorts I respect that tough fighter excited to see what he does in the division I think he’ll be in the division for a while just excited to see who he fights next mosvar evilev I think he talks about me after my Max fight someone someone one of my buddies or something said it to me because I don’t really looked that up good luck Lilia tiporia badass last fight what a hell of a win that was came out beat price Mitchell on the feet and then submitted him which nobody really saw coming IGA say tough fighter didn’t really like when you overlooked me calling off the champ the week of our fight but since then I like him more as a person but as far as a fighter I’d like to see him go step in there and do what he’s capable of doing I think a lot of people are excited to see how he bounces back from our flight and love to see him bounce back strong like I did Calvin kator Dark Horse kinda coming for everybody in the top 15 top to bottom bottom and top no real order excited to get another rep in when I get back in about a year and I’m excited for what that year is going to do to my mentality stepping in in there again and who I take on next I’m looking forward to the challenge Korean zombie is a guy I felt like I almost squared off with a couple times for some fights and you know they really came to fruition definitely a legend in the sport you know everyone knows what he’s capable of exciting fighter and one held walk outside Josh Emmett I got much to say it’s not bad blood but I think he’s crazy if you think he won that fight it was close it seemed worse robberies but I felt like I feel like I definitely edged him I think he he’s got a big opportunity uh coming up against Yaya Rodriguez in Perth visit you know as far as I’m concerned I gotta go chase that one back and show everybody that That Should Be Me in Perth but good luck and hopefully I’ll be seeing you again soon Arnold Allen tough last fight with me and him I was excited how that one would have played out you know as a competitor he was it was just kind of a wash of a first round in my opinion and we were kind of just getting warmed up and excited about that second round he’s done what he had to do with everybody stepped in there with and I was looking forward to see if or how that one worked out but um you know credit to him for where he’s been able to get in his career and hopefully I’ll bump into him again sooner we can answer some of those questions Brian Ortega I don’t really got much to say about him I don’t have too many run-ins he’s kind of sitting back off some that happened to him I’m sitting back after some bulls that happened to me maybe that won’t happen sooner than later Yaya Rodriguez I got a lot of respect for his Camp he put on a hell of a fight against Max that was impressive you know he’s got that Mexican dog in him and stylistically I’m interested in in that matchup and you know hopefully one day that happens Max Holloway he went out and earned that respect for me talked a little bit leading in so I deserved a lot of talk that I caught coming back but just a great competitor had a hell of a fight against me and contrary what people think you know I’m looking forward to round six and you know earning my respect back on that one because it gave me the opportunity to do that next time we step across from each other Alexander volganovski I think he’s a powerful pound best fighter in the world right now at 45 so he’s hit a lot of the accolades that I’m chasing tough to talk he’s out there wants to fight the competitors and he’s one of the Champions that I actually really respect because I feel like a lot of these guys like to sit back and wait for the right time and you know get cute for when they fight and what opportunities around but he’s just a real competitor I think he’s you know busy Champion which keeps the division moving for us contenders and wishing him the best of luck in that fight with Islam when he bumps up hopefully he can get that double champ status because I think he deserves it
