The instability surrounding UFC 324The event, scheduled for January 24th in Las Vegas (USA), became a topic of debate on social media after Renato Moicano publish a video analyzing the current state of the card. For the Brazilian lightweight (up to 70,3 kg) fighter, the cancellation of the highly anticipated fight between Kayla harrison e Amanda nunes He exposed a major weakness in the event, which, according to him, had lost relevance and become dependent on a specific star to avoid failure: Alex Poatán.
On his YouTube channel, Moicano said the problem goes beyond a simple change in the card. The fighter highlighted that the UFC is experiencing a moment of strong commercial pressure, especially after the billion-dollar deal with Paramount+, which requires big attractions to sustain subscriptions and maintain the interest of the general public.
"And it wasn't just the fight between Kayla harrison e Amanda nunes which was cancelled, all of the UFC 324 It could be at risk because, in my opinion, this guy (Pimblett) shouldn't even be fighting for a title, and this fight doesn't justify a $7 billion contract that needs to impress fans in the first half of 2026…
Dana White said he's under enormous pressure, and with the fight of Amanda nunes Cancelled, what's left of anything truly spectacular on this card? Absolutely nothing…. And who are they going to have to call to save the day? UFC 324In my opinion, who will save the UFC 324 is Alex Poatán.
"It's not the first time he's done this, and he's going to do it again, and this time it will be at heavyweight... (Poatan) will accept this fight with only a few weeks' notice and become the UFC heavyweight champion, doing something unprecedented," said Moicano.
