Don’t worry about Bo Nickal’s inactivity.
Three-time NCAA Division I national champion Nickal is gearing up for his fourth Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) fight against Scotland’s Paul Craig, which is set to go down at UFC 309 inside Madison Square Garden on Nov. 16.
Nickal, 28, has not fought since the iconic UFC 300 card, where he visited the second round for the first time and eventually finished Cody Brundage via submission (watch highlights).
Recently, a UFC fan questioned the undefeated fighter’s inactivity on Twitter.
“Bro you are a complete disappointment,” the fan wrote. “You finish all your fights within 2mins, take ZERO damage, yet you go home, sit down for MONTHS at a time while all your hype and momentum dies. Why? Makes no sense whatsoever. This is why nobody is out here looking for you, this is why when you’re not fighting nobody cares. You need to wake tf up because it’s so damn annoying”
The critical tweet prompted the mega-prospect to reply.
“I’m training brother,” Nickal wrote. “Not like these other guys who sit on the couch when they’re not in camp. I’ve been fighting professionally since June of 2022. Anyone else near my position has over a decade of experience and 3-5x as many fights. I’m on my own path and having fun, just enjoy the show.”
Nickal competed two times in his UFC rookie year (2023) and will get two fights this year, which is perfectly fine for a prospect that the UFC is trying to build slowly.
While it would be excellent for the former college wrestling star to fight more often, rushing him could end in disaster like many other UFC prospects.
