That was a fun card.
Opening fight was amazing...though the judging was a legit ROBBERY.
Ankalaev won and I think earned a title shot at 205... but he didnt look great getting that decision.
Chimaev is the real deal. He ran right through Whittaker. He should be challenging for the belt next and taking on the winner of DDP/Strickland (assuming that gets booked).
Topuria KO'd a very game Holloway. I had Max up 2 rounds til he got caught and Topuria seized the advantage. I am still not sold on Topuria. I think had Max taken him to Rd2 4 & 5 he would have drowned him and walked to to a winning decision.
Saw pics of Whittaker's jaw. Fucking disgusting.
Oh shit!?!?! I didnt (luckily) see that shit post fight. Was it a jaw dislocation or did Chimaev crush it and dislodge some teeth? Either way Whittaker tapped FAST. So I assume that shit was devastating and painful.
UFC 309 tomorrow night... and I am not too hyped.
Yea, it has Jones vs Stipe for the HW belt.... but the match in no way informs who is the best UFC HW. This is clearly just a money/legacy fight and nothing more.
And besides that fight there is just Chandler vs Oliviera.... overall a weak ass card.
Agree. And I'm not excited about Stipe vs Jones at all.
I'm actually really hyped for it..... from the early prelims to the undercard to the main card. I don't miss much mma and based on styles this card is guaranteed to have some good ones from start to finish.
Jon Jones should be in prison. I can never root for this MF'er. I hope Stipe breaks his neck with a punch to his jaw.
Best fight on the whole card may be Chris Weidman/Eryk Anders in the undercard.
Watching all the old ones starting from 1. Some of these fights are absolutely brutal. Scott almost got killed had the rep not stop sooner.
75% of the PPV events aren't even worth $20 imo. The main card for many of them is underwhelming more than half of the timeJust getting into UFC and man Americans really do get buttfucked on the pricing. They want you to subscribe ESPN + and pay $80 for ppvs. Gtfo with that lol
