Great fight.leftist heap posted:i really don't see how people would have it for DC He overcame a lot. Most notably saved by the bell by knockout at last second and having his eye almost ripped out of his socket. But at the end of the day it's who performed better not who overcame that most, it that was Stipe.

He expended too much energy and got tired

Jon would have an easier time with Stipe than he would with Reyes. Not sure why he doesn't make the move.

I feel that if you detach a guy's retina halfway through the fight, and don't finish him, it's an automatic DQ

I wish we could have the conversation about how impossibly irresponsible it was of DC's corner to send him back out when he'd straight-up told them he was blind in one eye because someone shoved their loving hand through it, but this is MMA and we're still fuckin' years and probably a fighter's union away from it

straight up brolic posted:Cormier had better hand speed in the other fights too. He just has faster hands. Stipe did a great job mitigating that and managing the fight to a win. He was getting consistently hit by a guy shorter, with small reach, who was blind in one eye, that’s not a great job mitigating hand speed.

In the second round stipe completely figured out DC's wing 2 overhands strategy and took over

Bisping's problems were greatly compounded by the fact that he didn't want to get surgery on it and interrupt his fighting career so he lied and faked his way through it for so long to the point where he was completely hosed.
