Movsar Evloev is not a fan of women’s MMA.

While he’s not the first high-profile fighter to criticize female fighting, he may be the least qualified. Evloev has 10 fights inside the Octagon with zero finishes and is so boring, matchmakers kept him out of the featherweight title picture until they burned through every possible contender.

Some of them twice.

“I don’t watch women’s fights,” Evloev told Mike Bohn. “I can’t watch it, it’s so hard. Maybe one fight I watched, Jedrzejczyk-Namajunas — the second one. That was a good fight, like high level. Like I said, I don’t watch a lot of fights, but all the fights I watched of women wasn’t good. Maybe they need a separate UFC just for women.”

They do, it’s called Invicta FC.

Sounds like Movsar has been taking notes from this Russian legend.

Evloev (20-0) will finally get his crack at the 145-pound title when he collides with reigning champion Alex Volkanovski (28-4) atop the UFC 333 fight card next month in Abu Dhabi. The odds remain razor thin for their five-round affair and could come down to how many of those 100 takedowns the challenger is able to land.
