Guys, it's been a pleasure and a honor spending this time with you.
We were blessed with one of the best cards I've ever seen... Amazing day for the mma fan.
Goodnight everybody.

[–] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

I hope the lesbian rockstar look brings Hooker to the promised land. Inshallah

[–] BingGoose@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

Du Plessis literally just flailed his way to a title shot, fuck sake

[–] The_Terrible_Humbaba@beehaw.org 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'll cry myself to sleep tonight.

What a great fucking card. Thanks to the community for hanging out!

[–] Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

Really no one left for Volk.

[–] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

"36 and me" then "26 and me"

He has no idea what a chromosome is

[–] DirtyDan@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I knew Du Plessis was bad.. but to finish Whittaker like that... damn

[–] DirtyDan@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

REAPER TIME

[–] Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

And we still have two title fights.

[–] Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

didn't realize that volk was cut in two different places.

[–] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

fight of the year candidate

[–] mmagod@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

[–] toastus@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Happy to see Dan get the win.

[–] Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

"all blood and guts. literally"

I didn't see any literal guts, Joe.

[–] Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

49-46 for Moreno? WTF

[–] ugmug@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Volk is unreal. Lands one super clean shot and it’s over. It looked like Yair was starting to get loose too.

[–] westingham@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

Yo I love Moreno but there's no way he went 49-46.

[–] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

2-2 I think

[–] Fernando-678@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

Dana better spare 1 million dollars in bonuses for this night.

[–] lackthought@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

real slobber-knocker here

[–] theyprovidethepaint@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

What a fucking fight, can’t believe both of those guys stayed awake

[–] Cromer@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

Weight bully got fuuuuuuuucked up

[–] Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Moreno likely will likely need a finish.

[–] ugmug@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

That score for Moreno is fucked. Glad the other judges got it right. Moreno’s stock doesn’t drop with this loss. That was a great fight.

[–] Fernando-678@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

I don't like this.

[–] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

That pass from whittaker was disgusting

[–] Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

Moreno likely going to be involved in yet another rematch.

[–] Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago
[–] toastus@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago

Shit, I don't like that.

[–] Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm just here for all the ad reads. The fights get in the way of that.

KICK HIM IN THE DICK

[–] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

Du Plessis always has had weird movement but it looks even more weird tonight?

Leg injury?
