It's Now Or NEVER! UFC Africa Has To Happen & I Made The Perfect Card For It. Adesanya vs Du Plessis

In this video I discuss a potential UFC Africa Card which would be headlined by Middleweights Israel Adesanya and Dricus Du Plessis. I also create an entire main card for it as well. Let me know what you think in the comments.

The thing with UFC Africa is that you can only do it in south africa, no other country has the infrastructure nor do the people have the means to pay a ticket for a live event. You can't throw that event in nigeria, congo, ivory coast it is just not possible. Plus by ufc africa people really mean ufc sub saharan african so you can't do it in Egipt or Morroco, places that do have the infrastructure

For the fantasy UFC Africa card, the only problem I have with it is the Kape vs Mokaev fight. It’s a great fight but I think they HAVE to go with Kai Kara France vs Manel Kape. There’s beef there, plus KKF and Izzy are teammates and we know how CKB likes to do with putting multiple CKB guys on one card. And then for Usman vs Whittaker, I’ve been seeing a lot of buzz around that matchup but honestly I don’t need to see it. I would love to see Usman on that card but at 170 and against somebody else. Somebody like the winner of Brady vs Luque (I think they’re fighting next right?), Shavkhat, Ian Garry, or JDM if he gets through Burns. Your ACTUAL IFW card is 🔥 though and way more realistic. If the UFC fumbles on an event in Africa again, I’ll be pissed. They have to capitalize with Izzy and Dricus.

Part of the 3 kings era took place during covid, so therw was less chance than we think. Now is the time. You still got a competitive adesanya and usman, plus guys like ddp and saiman.
the two guys in the middle the argentinian guy and the zimbabwe guy both have the same ears does that confirm out of africa theory
There’s serious history between Izzy, DDP, Rob & Strickland. Any of those matchups work for me
Not like there was 3 African Champions at the same time before or anything… 0:20
Lucas what do you think of Izzy mentioning that Dricus refused to fight him on UFC 300 (2 months after a war with Strickland)? It seems like Izzy and Bareman have a history of trying to get fighters to fight injured or like 2-3 months after intense 5 round fights. They did the same thing with Whittaker 2 months after he fought gastelum.

What does it matter? What kind of narrative are you trying to push? DDP called out Izzy at 297, and Israel also fought Pereira and knocked him out with a torn MCL that he injured the week of the fight.

I don't care where the UFC goes, so long as it's at sea-level. The UFC making an Africa card depends on if they believe DDP will be able to defend the belt a couple of times. Otherwise, they're going to duck the Africa card again. And if they don't bring Mike Perry back for that card they've failed.
South Africa mentioned 🇿🇦 raaaaaah
Mike Perry best African UFC Fighter
What happened to the 5 hours of streaming you told us last night for today Lucas 😔
By the time you get to Themba I was like there's noooooo way he doesn't put Manel Cape on this and then its the very next one haha. You need Manel on the card 100% for his antics and hyping of the presser.
Regarding the Nurmagomédov - Martinez matchup I think exactly because for the reasons Lucas said it is a dangerous opponent for Umar and outside the rankings that I can see they wouldn't do it. PS: someone nicknamed "the tooth fairy" actually sounds like could someone fighting for
imagine the press conference for international fight week aswell😂
Lfggggg double upload baby
Lucas. In your opinion, had there been enough time since the "dog stuff" for Israel to make a return? Your thoughts.
Lucas Tracy is my African Champion
Let’s go
Having Whittaker and Usman fight for a #1 contender’s is absolutely ridiculous. The whole “win a single fight then get a title shot” should have died out with Colby’s last loss. Usman and Whittaker are not championship caliber anymore. These guys are old heads that are set in their ways and do not have what it takes to level up enough to beat the new generation and current competition. They should just fight entertaining matchups that the fans want to see without expecting an immediate title shot

Better than Jon Jones' idea of "I know he's coming off a KO loss 3+ years ago (after losing every minute of the fight beforehand), but Stipe is the fight the people want to see". Better to get a title coming of a 1 dominant win than your last win being 4 years ago

Don't do Ellis Park, too dangerous in that neighborhood. Cape Town is better or Loftus(Du Plessis' hometown). Also missed out on adding Mark Hulme - the next South African fighting in the UFC.
Volk needs a few wins before we can talk about a Toothfairy matchup. Sure, hes the 145 goat, one of the overall goats, but the Toothfairy doesnt just fight anybody. It has to make sense, has to be a matchup that motivates the Toothfairy when it wakes up in the morning.

I appreciate Lucas constantly calling out the lackluster card the UFC puts on but stop calling it “lazy” or “incompetence”. This is all by design, the UFC doesn’t even pay its fighters, it’s a cheap, dirtbag company.
I'm sure they UFC thought of it and probably tried to make it happen, but there is probably some legitimate behind the scenes reason on why it isn't happening..

Both cards are amazing but they won’t waste Strickland on a co main especially with his new found fame, at least I don’t think Dana would but who knows.
Whittaker x Usman should’ve happened several years ago. I’d still watch for sure. The whole African champion campaign destroyed Usman going up.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MORENO VS CEJUDO?
What Lucas doesn't understand is the company doesn't want anymore black stars. Especially foreign ones. If they make this card they're gonna match African vs black Americans. If some has to lose let it be a black person type thing.
