Hi everybody!
Formerly /r/MMA
Place to talk about the **sport** of mixed martial arts
Welcome!
Yo! Any fights you are particularly interested in today?
I love Muradov. I scouted him for betting reasons just prior to his UFC debut. His ceiling is incredibly high.
Thanks everyone for coming out!
These next few events will be much better cards! See you then!
NGL I thought Craig was going to wilt at this weight. Amazing performance. I loved that sub escape to pass maneuver.
Well, that was quick. Aspinall is going to get some real competition his next fight out. Good job.
Right back into the mix, probably 1 good win from a title shot honestly. Though who knows how the title picture will look since Jones may retire after the Stipe defense.
I had no issue with the stoppage but absolutely 0 of those G&P punches landed.
Either stop it on the knockdown or wait until at least ONE lands. You're not really giving the other guy a chance.
Damn this Wood v Fili fight is awesome
A clear, obvious headbutt.
No points taken.
I hate the apathy from the refs in this fucking sport. It's so unprofessional.
That's a DQ headbutt in my book.
Are your arts mixed martialed?
swinging for the fences.
Good idea Bisping, let's hear some more of your half-baked political takes while on commentary.
Thanks everyone for participating. Glad to see some familiar usernames along with some new ones. Hope to see you all around the magazine regularly.
Early fights with the boiiisss! Liking the commentary team. Gooden and Bisping are great. Felder is....there too.
Stoliarenko:
Many have tried
Only half succeeded
Good scrap between Bannon and Brasil! I like when some kickboxers forget wrestling is a thing and just wing kicks upside each other's heads with no worries of being taken down.
Fili's back tat looks like it's been unfinished for the last 10 years
holy shit
might be an issue with his left hand, but he keeps landing the right.
So unimpressed by Vieira. Almost the entire fight in control time and nothing to show for it
"...not used to fighting in front of the sold out arena" Camera pans and about 10% of the seats, at most, are filled.
Duncan is definitely aware of the injury in the third. Ashmouz is losing steam.
love the earlier start times, and we're right into the fights!
Duncan looked good. Ashmouz was tough fighting with one hand.
Feel bad for Diakiese, rough way to lose
Glad they got that decision right.
MEATBALL time
Love not having to go to sleep at 3-5am!
Tell you right now. Blue Beetle ain't beating Fedor.
I remember when Faber broke both of his hands against Mike Brown.
Question for next week. Are the mods going to make multiple threads for UFC, Bellator and Rizin, or you just going to make one for the night? There will be some slight overlap with Bellator.
This event is chugging right along. Not a long wait between the fights.
Very un-UFC like.
Muradov has sky high potential
Boxcar Barbarena
Muradov's ability to get in and out, land precision strikes, and now with his improved ability to get takedowns makes him so dangerous.
Good HW scrap so far. Fairly rudimentary striking but actually pretty disciplined for big boys.
Pogues looks like he skips leg day too often.
that was tight
Alvarez has those skinny Jon Jones legs.
