[King Makar19]

Love UFC guts. Thx Dana

its weird watching live events without an audience but being able to hear EVERYTHING is really cool as well

I go back to the days of Pancrase and Pride with the super silent and observant japanese crowds. To me this is actually kinda nostalgic

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Hardy looks baked, like he smoked an entier bowl 5 minutes before fight time.

 

[MD thaivuN]

De Castro is doing everything to lose this fight Hardy isn't even doing anything particularly effective

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Too bad De Castro went on a two round break. He had an easy win there for the taking. Just kick the lead leg and get your winner's purse.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Major cup marks on Kattar's back. He has to be nursing something.

Cupping was all the rage at the last Olympics. Why are Olympians covered in red circles?

Hard to say what he is using it for.

Some muscle tightness issues I would guess.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

GSP is heading to the hall of fame. No surprise there.

 

[MD thaivuN]

UFC showing Reem's lips still makes me wince

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

The battle of the two Overeem killers coming up. Ngannou looks in great shape, real lean and muscular.

 

[LyricalLyricist]

Hopefully this isn't a Lewis Ngannou repeat.

 

[TT1]

here come the big boys

 

[LyricalLyricist]

This guy is crazy

 

[TT1]

lol

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Ngannou is one scary dude. He barely has to make contact to hurt a guy. He's raw and all over the place but the power sure is there.

 

[LyricalLyricist]

Different sport but Ngannou has more KO power than Wilder IMO.

Next one is gonna be real interesting. Cruz is super intelligent and Cejudo is at his peak. Looking forward to it.

 

[MD thaivuN]

i think Cruz will just use his size and try to outgrind Cejudo.

 

[TT1]

f*** i hope Cejudo loses

 

[MD thaivuN]

it's not looking good for Cruz. Cejudo has a clear speed advantage

Cruz wants to get him to the 3rd/4th/5th rounds, that's when he'll really start turning it on.

unless he's trying to grapple him, trying outcardio a flyweight in the striking department is honestly a poor strategy

you can hear his coach saying "he's slowing down now"
