The fight card for the UFC 300 event has officially been announced. Though the cards are heavily stacked, there are quite a lot of people who are criticizing Dana White and the UFC for their placement of a certain fight in the PPV event.

UFC middleweight prospect, Bo Nickal is a fighter that is on everyone’s radar at the moment. Despite being a fighter who is without a doubt filled with potential, the UFC middleweight still has much to prove inside the UFC octagon. The 5-0 fighter being put on the main card over more accomplished fighters has led quite a lot of fight fans to criticize Dana White and the UFC.

A fan claimed that putting the undefeated prospect on the main card was plain criminal: “Putting Bo on main card over jiri and sterling was just criminal”

Another had the same argument: “I’m so hyped for 300, BUT PUT BO NICKAL ON THE PRELIMS”

One fan seemed dumbstruck to witness Cody Brundage being on the main card: “Cody Brundage on the main card of ufc 300? Wow”

One more criticized the promotion for favoring Nickal and Brundage over fights featuring former champions: “UFC just slided Bo Nickal in the main card over fights like Prochazka vs Rakic & Sterling vs Kattar”

– Another had a sarcastic remark on the fight cards: “What a legendary card full of amazing fighters… and Bo and the biggest can in his division is there too.”

One was harsh with his opinion, putting the UFC on blast for “disrespectful” move: “Amazing card. But seriously putting Nickal vs Brundage on the main card is a disgrace. Especially when there’s multiple recent former champions and ranked fights on the prelims, pretty disrespectful. Again its a great card, but come on UFC, put that fight on the prelims and add Jiri vs Rakic, or Aljo vs Kattar to the main card.”
