Continue getting his a$$ whooped more than likely - Jorge put on a clinic - those body shots reminded of the Miocic-Cormier fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That cut wasn't endangering the health of his eye so the stoppage was silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey sets up a rematch at least and I think Diaz comes much more prepared - who knows by the time they fight it might be for the UFC title and the BMF title.

If I were Masvidal I'd wait until after a title shot before fighting Nate again. He's just on the cusp of getting one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I'd ever cheer for Covington, but if he were to beat Usman, a Covington-Masvidal title fight would be great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RRypien37 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Most raw emotional interview I have ever heard in the UFC. Like him even more now. Till vs Izzy is destined to happen at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, No he isn't He has a lazy talk and it makes him sound dumb. He also acts like a goof and gets into it with his opponent. He is known for slapping them and flipping them the bird while in the cage. So he get's his deserved share of hate. He is a good fighter. You like boxing? Nate's is great. He is also one of the best ground fighters in the game. He has very good BJJ. He also manages his business side like a king. And a lot of it is about his brand, just being himself. He famously smoked a vape full of cbd in a post fighter press conference ! in the early days, before people were fully realising the health benefits. It's now legal and Nate is one of the athlete's making money in the marijuana world in a big way. He also is probably most famous for beating that loud mouth Irish fighter. It sky rocketed his career. I'd guess he would not be your type of guy. Here's a slap Always been a fan of Nate as fighter. Only became reinforced by this fight. would I get along with Nate in real life? Maybe not. But as an athlete: much respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would likely spend most of the time telling him to relax. So angry despite all his weed in take. Then again, I suppose that anger is a gift to some fighters.

Down by the River Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) I wish the UFC would just absorb Bellator. Bellator production is just so terrible but they still have some legit guys that would be entertaining in the UFC. At one point I thought Bellator bringing in MacDonald and Moussasi was going to be great for MMA because it would give the UFC some competition. Instead it just made those fighters less relevant and the Bellator "stars" are protected more than boxers.

Bellator is basically the minor leagues for prospects and for past their prime big names looking for an easier/more comfortable transition into retirement.

Down by the River Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 The UFC hasn't really had a meaningful event since November 2nd. The cards in Russia and Brazil were bogus and the Overeem card on the 7th isn't all that enticing either. Going over a month without meaningful fights sucks.

Rare for the UFC these days. Have been pretty good with consistent cards every weekend for most of the year. Main event on Saturday should be really interesting. If Rozenstruik gets another KO he becomes a contender. He already called out Ngannou. Would be amazing. Arguably the 2 hardest hitters in the division.

Chicken. Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Anybody hyped for tomorrows event ? Pretty stacked card Ill go with: Cardio King Blessed Nunes Aldo Yan Also found it interesting that Colby and Usman are making the most base salary on this card than two longer reigning champs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So flipping a coin for the headliner really. but I think do to poor style the guy that disgraces his flag by wearing it as clothing should lose. You should only be allowed to do that if you study 'Rex kwon do' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same could be said about Lawler though... so will be interesting.. This bias clip is pretty funny.. makes Usman look like a horse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
