Nate whipped Pettis ass as i knew he would . wish he couldve got the stoppage but Pettis has the heart of 10 men. alot of refs like that idiot Herb Dean wouldve stopped it during that 3rd rd sequence where Nate landed consecutive knees to the face and dropped Pettis and followed up with punches. Then Nate calls out Masvidal. .....Nate will slap that motherfucker.

It would be interesting to see the game plan that the Goat deploys against a Stipe who comes out of the gate with body shots.

DC wins the rubber match. he still fucked Stipe up for 3 rds, after knocking him out in the 1st rd prior fight. so they've fought 5 rds and DC has whipped him in 4 of them. Stipe still has more of the adjustments to make.

I agree about Stipe. DC fought stupid in the 4th round. Give Stipe credit,the dude can bang. The way he finished DC was brutal.

Still see no one that can beat Khabib. Only guy that has a small chance is Tony F. I respect that guy,he beats the fuck out of people. Khabib/Furguson is the fight I wanna see the most at Welterweight.

Tony is all types of wrong for Khabib.

Tony definitely the best offensive fighter khabib would have ever fought. But Khabibs ground game is still leagues ahead of Tonys...and khabib is not a stationery defensive target. Hes not eqsy to hit without paying a price....unless hes stupidly trading with you, which he only does when he knows you aint a risk.

Still want this fight though, badly.

Ben Askren vs Damian Maia.

thats quite the match up. might be the first ever UFC fight where no strikes are attempted.

Askren on life support i have no desire to see that fight.

Would be nice to see Khabib kick Bens ass before he retires.

its literally a grappling match. the scrambles and transitions and submission attempts and the defense against those attempts should all be interesting to witness. i cant imagine either guy getting out grappled or handled in any of those areas. im actually intrigued though it is weird match making.

Im willing to say maia submits him. Does askren have a submission game? Dangerous getting on the ground with a ground guy who also does submissions....but maia should get out grappled. Yeah. Definitely some wonder...

so all 3 judges had DC up 2-1 going into the 4th, and they didnt even agree on all the rds. so multiple judges gave Stipe different rds. thats astounding. i thought DC won all 3 rds easily before the stoppage.

I had it 3-0 but I did have one of the rounds close, so 2-1 isnt surprising.

Looking back, DC should have went ground as soon as he took that first body shot. He shelled up and tried to man up up top with more striking, crucial mistake for a soft belly guy like him.

yea the 3rd was close and competitive but still clear for DC. one of those instances where a fighter scores a rd because he did much better than the previous rds.

Looks like Zhang gave Andrade the biz that Tug Rose was finna give to her before she got slammed on her face.

last 2 noteable things on Tugs resume is exaggerating and milking her traumatic experience in that bus and then getting KTFO and losing her belt. please dont mention her in any type of flattering light.

Dana floating it out there that 242 could come close to 2M buys on Saturday.

not a chance. how would one even know that outside of just purely speculating?? he's only hoping. and there's only one other mildly significant fight on the card.

apparently its based on social media traffic in relation to the main event as well as YouTube views on the participants past recent fights. and the heavy promotion for the event. so in other words, yea, he hopes it gets to 2 mil. i doubt it. I'll go with 1.4 mil. a resounding success.

Especially for an event with a 2pm start time.

holy shit i wouldve straight up missed it. no idea it started at 2.

Im looking forward to it actually.

me too. toughest fight of Khabis career and its going to be competitive. but he'll grind it out. i say UD or Khabib by 5th rd submission. Co main is interesting to. a rematch between Felder and Barboza, 2 exciting strikers. Barboza easily outpointed him years ago but he's not the same fighter today. Felder stops him. no other interesting fights.
