All Things UFC & MMA

Did you guys see the altercation between petr yan and garbrandt backstage after the Faber fight?

 

I respect Cody for not blowing up. You can tell he's very loyal to his team.

 

Crazy main event card last night. Got very lucky to run into my brother in law and 16 year old nephew at BWW for it.

Urijah is done.
Aldo/Moraes was up for grabs, shame on Aldo not finishing it up.
Nunes is just sick. Germaine really should have moved in hard on her in the final round, no way she could have thought she had the scores to win a decision.
Max/Alex was kind of the same thing, I think Max should have known he lost the decision.
I've not seen much of Colby..I know he's arrogant, but is he a dirty fighter? Seemed a couple of questionable moves by him.

Yawn...got home around 2:30AM

 

Something about a Russian talking smack through an interpreter that doesn’t sit well with me.

 

Yes, confirmed through MMAFighting.com as far as I know. Like him or not that guy is tough.

 

Honestly, I’d bolt for WWE as well if I was him. But, I think he takes the rematch and felt he looked a little off last night as far as his cardio. I know it was a brutal pace but he had a lot more gas left when he fought Robbie. I’m a fan and the guy is doing what he feels he has to do to get paid.

 

Going to have to check this out when I get home.

 

LMAO!! Max Holloway didn't have a striking coach with his fights with DP and CMG. His first 7 fights with no striking coach..hahahaha. He played and learned combos from playing the first UFC video game. That's freaking hilarious.

 

Chase Hooper looked great, but sometimes these young guns don't get an opportunity to grow because the UFC will give them the boot after three loses.
Sage Northcutt had a lot of potential and he got the boot way too soon, Cody Garbrandt will probably get the boot if looses again,
but then older guys like Shogun Rua that has 9 UFC loses are still around, that shit just don't make sense to me.

 

Cody's been KO'd or TKO'd in his last three fights and getting finished looks a lot worse than a split decision.
Some split decisions are epic fights where the loser doesn't necessarily loose stock, but I don't think he'll be around if he gets finished in his next fight.

 

Anyone staying up/waking up to watch the Frankie/ Korean Zombie fight?

 

Yessir....

 

man idk haha. That’s an early one. I woke up early for Maia/Askren. Idk if I can manage this time.

 

I'm going to miss the fight unfortunately. I'm on my 5 days off stretch with work but picked up tomorrow since they're offering a bonus for picking up plus it's straight OT plus additional $11/hr. I work 12 hour shifts..I couldn't pass that up.

 

Where do you work? I can’t pass it up either, I’ll see ya there! I’m on my way!

 

Where are you? We're still one short! Big hospital up on the hills in Portland, Oregon!

Also, saw that Frankie lost via TKO

 

I’m in Illinois, gonna take me a minute to get there. What are we doing btw?

 

I thought Zombie was a bad matchup for Frankie and I guess I thought right. Zombie smoked him. I really like both fighters but Frankie needs to try 135 and then go from there.

 

He really is. He does tend to get a little wild at times (hence the last second KO from Yair) but I honestly think he can beat anyone at that weight if he keeps his cool. He’s legit. Also, Frankie (again) looked small next to him. I hope Frankie can stay around for a while longer but he doesn’t have a home at 145 any more.

 

Missed the fights but saw the results. Can’t say that I’m surprised with the main event unfortunately. Like you guys said, bad match up. But I’ll pull for Frankie any day. Legend
