I still mentally canโt comprehend Tom Aspinall came off the couch, basically didnโt train at all, and then smoked the scariest contender at heavyweight who was on a 6 fight first round KO streak, in one minute.
This is what we mean when we say sometimes trash talk isnโt necessary and all you need is two badass fighters with entertaining styles to sell fights
Cody didnโt get murdered
Figgy looked great
Bobby masterclass
Aljo dunked Kattar
Jiri comeback KO
Charles lost but still looked elite
Max dominated and then flatlined Justin
And Alex starched Hill
Best night of fights ever
Because he was losing the fight? Telling the guy youโre down four rounds against to โstand in the middle and give me a chanceโ isnโt BMF behavior.
Funny how the BMF Max didnโt point to the middle of the Octagon when he wasnโt the fresher fighter and was getting beat up by Volk for 24 minutes and 50 seconds?
The fact that Garcia actually beat Haneyโs ass and people were still worried that the fight was gonna get scored for Haney is crazy, plus one judge scored the fight a draw.
Just puts into perspective how bad boxing judging can be sometimes.
Iโm deadass when I say this, they should just fly this dude around and put him against every fat heavyweight on the roster on every card to pad his record and make all the apex cards enjoyable. He cuts no weight so it takes nothing out of him to just chin a fat guy every week๐
I know Rodtang is no where near as famous as Tyson Fury is (Atleast in America) but it would be very cool if we had Rodtang as a guest character in UFC 5
Your lying to me if say Oliveiraโs title reign wasnโt more entertaining than khabibโs. And this is no hate towards Khabib, but Oliveira literally did everything Khabib did but in a much shorter span of time.
Looking back at it, wtf was the point of this?
Alex doesnโt speak any English and Sean never even sits down in his corner so Alex just sat there behind the cage and said โ๐ฟโ the entire time. ๐ญ
This is pretty wild to see cause Seanโs said multiple times he doesnโt look at people in the eyes at face offs because he gets flash backs to his childhood so you can tell Dricus comparing himself to Seanโs dad just brought out all of Seanโs anger for his dad.
This fight gave me a new found respect for Islam. After seeing him outclass Charles like that, as much as i root for Charles, that was a spectacular performance.
Israel Adesanya talks about his losses to Alex Pereira:
โFirst fight in China, I thought I won. Even [Alex] thought I won until he got his hand raised. Second fight, Iโm beating his a** and he gets me.
Again, [third fight] in New York, beating that, rocked him, took him down,โฆ
Max Holloway outlines the plan for his next few fights โin a perfect worldโ:
โIn a perfect world to me would be, fight Ilia [Topuria], [145] title, get my hand raised. And whoever is the next guy up at [155], fight them, try and go for double champ status.โ
๐ฅ The Joe Roganโฆ
In his last three fights, Max Holloway has :
-Face planted Arnold Allen
-Slumpt Korean Zombie
-Knocked the hardest hitting lightweight in Justin Gaethje out cold and left him twitching on the Canvas.
But he has pillow hands guys trust me.
This is mad cool if you ask me cause if pereira wanted to he could probably move down to middleweight and take the belt back (although he probably could have done that against Adesanya as well) but chooses not to because he sees Strickland as a genuine friend now. Just shows howโฆ
Hear me out.
Ufc 290
Jon Jones vs Stipe Miocic
Leon Edwards Vs Colby Covington
Alexander Volkanovski Vs Yair Rodriguez
3 title fights on one card, itโs been years since the ufc has done this.
Alex Periera is our last hope to have a fun ufc. If he gets jabbed and leg kicked to victory by Izzy, we are doomed for a boring sport run by point fighters and lack luster finishers.
People arenโt gonna like hearing this but the UFC kinda set up aljo for failure. He had a fight with Cejudo 3 months ago and then had to make a quick turn around against someone who had a whole year of preparation for him. Plus heโs a black man defending in Boston of all places.
Bro slept Muslim Salikhov,
Got disgustingly robbed against Daniel Rodriguez despite weighing 10 pounds less than him on weigh in day,
And then vanished off the face of the planet.
Idk why everybody is tripping about this. When DC, Khabib, Dillashaw, Figueiredo, Mcgregor, Max Holloway, Chimaev, etc, do it itโs okay. But when Alex does it, itโs โsanctioned cheatingโ because he knocked out everybodyโs favorite fighter.
I remember before 295 most of the videos and edits out there made Alex look like a serial killer and now heโs out here doing shit like this after catching a body ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
