GDT: UFC Fight Week: Nunes vs. Shevchenko 2, Johnson vs. Gaethje

[Jasper]

Wait, was the Font-Andrade fight bumped to the main card just to make it longer with the top fight off? Next fight is Pettis-Miller?

Yes, they have to fill out the main card.

 

[MD thaivuN]

i hope Rob Font can stay healthy and fight more consistently. He's a fun fighter to watch.

 

[member 51464]

Yes, they have to fill out the main card.

I hope for some more early finishes, though they don't seem to shorten the time between bouts even when that happens.

What time do you think this all ends east coast time?

I think a general rule of thumb is 30 mins per three round fight, so the new main event should start around midnight eastern. I assume it's three rounds but I'm not sure.

 

[Jasper]

Nice round for Pettis.

 

[oilers_guy_eddie]

I really enjoyed watching that withered old man choke the crap out of Travis Browne. That was a great performance.

 

[member 51464]

Umm, thanks UFC. 3rd round of the Pettis fight kept freezing at the 59 second mark and I missed the rest.

I take it Pettis won by unanimous decision?

Yes.

It's an interim title fight. 5 rounds.

Ahh right, cool.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Did he just throw a rolling thunder?

 

[dss97]

Overeem looking big for this one.

 

[Jasper]

Overeem's gone from over-confident striker to sitting back all fight. Maybe it'll work out but I doubt he wins a decision.

Reem is hurting Werdum every round while Werdum can't seem to land good shots. 20-18 easily for Reem.

1-1 for me.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Wow, nice combo by Werdum to get Reem in trouble.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Werdum should've gotten out of that position and tried to finish Reem

 

[MD thaivuN]

werdum needs to 10-8 this round

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Should've gone for the finish Werdum, I think he got cocky thinking he won the 1st and decided to play it safe.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Don't really want to see Reem-Miocic 2 if it goes to that.

 

[MD thaivuN]

Werdum was completely lost in the first 2 rounds.

 

[dss97]

Werdum did more damage, but Overeem had the first two round. Good decision.

 

[Jasper]

I thought Werdum won the first round, but could've gone either way.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

I thought Werdum won the first round, but could've gone either way.

I thought Reem won it, neither of them did all that much, but Reem clipped him and stunned him twice.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

So...how long does Yoel sit on his stool this fight?
