Does Artem Lobov Belong in the UFC? | SiriusXM | Luke Thomas


At UFC Moncton, Artem Lobov lost to Michael Johnson via unanimous decision. In the wake of his loss, MMA Fighting writer Chuck Mindenhall wrote about the curiosity of Lobov’s ability to stay on the UFC roster. SBG Dublin coach John Kavanagh responded to the piece, arguing Lobov did deserve a place in the UFC and not merely because he’s Conor McGregor’s training partner. What’s the truth? Here’s my take.

  1. He's not as bad as people joke but he's not good enough to really justify keeping around. The UFC needs to focus on quality not pleasing Conor who is closer to being out of fighting than many probably realize

  2. Theres atleast 15 guys that are WAY worse than this guy. His Conor connection helps, AND hurts him
