All Things UFC & MMA

...and Demetrious Johnson with the brutal KO!

Awesome KO! He got wobbled a few times but was able to pull it out.

 

I don't know how to do that SPOILER button thing, so skip this post if you haven't watched.

Chimaev, regardless of the fact that he didn't make weight, is a scary man. Big credit to Holland for even taking the fight all things considered.

In all honesty, I didn't see it going much differently against Diaz, good win for Diaz as he heads into his trilogy payday fight with Conor.

Jingliang didn't deserve that..but he took the fight just the same.

Craziness around this card going back to Friday night!

 

Stockton Motherfucker!!!!!

Great to see Nate Diaz go out with a win. Now he can get paid, no matter what he does.

 

Hoo! down goes Izzy!!!

 

Ugh I’m going to have to download 281 and avoid highlights .

 

Two-time UFC title challenger Anthony ‘Rumble’ Johnson dead at 38 - Man...this is crazy.

 

Cain got released on bail today.

 

I think that was last week.

 

My bad, I just saw it today.

 

282 tomorrow. What’s the fight you are excited about?

 

Bryce Mitchell V Ilia Topuria - Mitchell is fun to watch, looking forward to seeing how he handles Topuria's pressure.

Also, Magomed Ankalaev is a solid fighter, I am eager to see this fight and how he handles being in the spotlight like this.

Was really looking forward to Robbie Lawler.

 

Always enjoy the entertainment side of UFC so I enjoy watching the boys like Paddy the Baddy.

 

I actually think a draw for Blachowicz vs Ankalaev was not a super bad decision. But Paddy winning by unanimous decision last night was definitely suspicious. Overall 282 had some good fights though.

 

Drew Freakin' Dober!! Let him fight Paddy!!!!

Who should the UFC place in front of Arman Tsarukyan next? I say Jalin Turner

With the split decision win over Sean Strickland, is Jared Cannonier in the mix for another title shot?

A combined record of 48-2...no losses in the last 8 years!! I certainly hope Makhachev V Volkanovski meets expectations.

 

I don't really care for the dude and I know that there are probably other fighters out there that deserve a contract with a major organization like the PFL...but I respect Jake Paul for getting in there on this.

Ever since he started calling out MMA fighters to box, I have been wanting to see him in an actual MMA fight with a solid MMA fighter. I know he called out Nate Diaz to a two-fight deal - One boxing match, One MMA match, which would be cool to see. But I REALLY want to see him in an MMA fight with a fighter. Lots of current PFL fighters offered to be his first MMA fight, so we'll just have to wait and see.

 

I can see Paul beating Diaz in boxing, but no chance in MMA. Diaz's BJJ is way too good. It would take Paul years to learn proper defense to avoid a sub. Would I watch this spectical, absolutely!

 

IDK man. Nate's got some of the best stand-up defense I've ever witnessed. He manages to block almost all punches with his face. lol
