Seeing the replay again, I really think Tony beckoned at Herb Dean to stop the fight. We waved him in, and himself just backed away from Gaethje in a posture of submission/defeat.

That's what I was thinking! He takes 10 careers worth of bombs in 5 rounds and a few minutes later is all "drat this camp has been a long one, glad to see you again fucker"

I've been saying this for a year but gaethje has what it takes to stop Khabib. im pretty sad we don't get Khabib Tony. Tony looked 36 as gently caress in there.

How's Gaethje wrestling? I know he's a wrestler by training; has he used it much in MMA?

Well, it doesn't have to be good enough to put him on his back. It just needs to be good enough to keep the fight on the feet.

Great fight but I still think khabib will rag doll him and win quite easily.

Someone finally defeated the 100 people living inside Tony. He turns over to his night stand to turn off the lamp. He smiles faintly. Finally, we can rest.

We'll never know. They'll just be mysteriously quarantined for no reason, definitely not covid

If that was what we got and the positive tests start coming out on monday... well, that wasn't worth it at all

But it was still a really fun night of fights capped off with the single largest amount of apprehension I've ever felt watching a fight that either fighter could have won and I would have been happy about it

God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Who will wipe this blood off us? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent?

glad i paid us currency to enjoy this card. it was fun and t-furg may be picking a fight with a poltergeist on the porch after that war. goddamn

Tony went out basically the way Rory did vs Robbie. Brain won't shut off but poo poo is just short circuiting and the body hits some kind of secondary failsafe.

It looked like he had a lot of blood in his eyes and was trying to shake it out instead of wiping it the way every other fighter would, that being said, even with no blood in his eyes, he was done.

You can clearly see after that hit his eyes are just gone. He shakes his head like he's trying to come back but his brain is just full of nope.

PS4 wouldn't let me watch the fights so that was frustrating, but the event was good overall with two really great fights (although maybe that's just because I haven't seen a fight live in what feels like forever)

Good stoppage imo Tony is loving crazy.

Hanging in as long as he did taking those hits is a feat. That leg sweep he landed was vicious. if he had followed up with intensity I think he would've won.

The guy was in primal mode. He was putting himself into the corner with a please stop hitting me reaction

You could probably make a highlight reel for Justin that just consists of the moments where a bloodied, shaken and limping Tony clings to the fence or stumbles along it trying to get away.

the main event

What I meant was that either guy could have won that fight and I would have been happy. I didn't have any money on it, I didn't prefer one fighter over the other, I just wanted a good fight. But I spent the entire time sitting on the edge of my seat with my heart in my throat

edit:

Ferguson v Gaethje got Fight of the Night
Gaethje & Ngannou got PotN.
Niko Price and Tony Ferguson were both transported to hospital

Oh gotchaaa. I'm with you. I love that I got to watch it because it was amazing. I hate that one guy had to lose. Would love to watch them both forever.
