OT: General UFC/MMA/Boxing discussion VII

[Pompeius Magnus]

Heck of a performance for Till. That's a taking your career to the next level win. I'm not 100% in agreement with the decision though, it was a lot closer that the cards are suggesting,

I missed it, did he deserve the win?

 

[TRG]

Wonderboy has become a boring fighter.

It could have gone both ways honestly, Wonderboy was the one pressing and throwing but Till landed more significant strikes. Very close fight.

Just saw it, pretty uneventful.

Best part was till's post fight interview.

 

[mariolemieux66]

This is boring. I usually enjoy the UFC .

 

[mariolemieux66]

5 inches in height difference between Saunders and Ellenberger.

 

[LyricalLyricist]

It's amazing how stacked UFC 225 is vs 224.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

UFC 225 weigh-in results: Yoel Romero barely misses, leaving main event in limbo
That damn belt is cursed Hopefully the main event is still on, just not for the championship if Romero wins. I don't get why they let Romero fight at 185 when he can't make it half the damn time. Just force him to go to 205 and be done with it already. Just look at the damn guy .

Ugh. Whyyyy

Fight might still happen just not for belt.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Old man Rashad is years past the point where he sould have left the sport. He's just taking needless extra damage now and it's getting sad to watch.

 

[MD thaivuN]

i missed the first 4 fights lol. Sergio Pettis won? I guess the wheels were bound to fall off Benavidez.

Split decision, it was a good, close fight. I actually had Benavidez winning it 29-28. But yeah, he's kinda lost in the shuffle now . He can't beat DJ so he's stuck in limbo .

 

[MD thaivuN]

De La Rocha is terrible. Had mount, couldn't finish, barely did any damage

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Not the two most athletic heavyweights ever, to say the least.

Coulter looks okay athletically, by heavyweight standards of course.

LOL at Rogan calling De La Rocha technical.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Coulter wasn't doing anything anymore, good stop .

 

[Mike Mike Caron]

Easiest takedowns we'll see tonight.

Until the Blaydes fight at least ! Although Overeem is actually a pretty underrated grappler.

For sure, but De La Rocha just picked Coulter and put him down like it was a child. He didn't go fast and Coulter didn't fight against it, it was just strange to see a 36 years old pro taken down like my drunk uncle.

Overeem is pretty darn hard to take down. I get the feeling it's gonna a repeat of the Reem vs Lesnar fight

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Bektic is rocking the awkward teenager stash. I dig it.

 

[MD thaivuN]

Let's see how Bektic's guillotine choke defense is against Lamas

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

A lot of people forget that he's an Abu dhabi gold medalist too. His grappling is very good, he just rarely gets to use it.

 

[MD thaivuN]

Bektic: showing good work on the clinch, rare in MMA

Herb Dean: "Let's Work"

please retire Herb
