I saw Sam alvey and he punched me in the shoulder because I couldn't shake his hand. He was smiling, and hell, so was I.

Ugh...that main event sucked. The two faceplant ko's were impressive though.

It didnt work on Rory macdonald because hes autistic Rory should bargain his way back into the UFC with this

Triticum Guzzler posted:I hope so. He's 42 and he'd already taken a lifetime's worth of hellacious beatings from LeBanner 15 years ago. But maybe it's for the best if he doesn't retire, because when he stops fighting I can't imagine it being anything other than a bizarre public disaster. so he fights on New Year's Eve for Rizin next

I think my favorite thing from last night ends up being a bleeding, concussed man finishing a kneebar.

Pop-o-Matic Trouble posted:UBEREEM IS BACK I was impressed he survived a few of the shots that he took. Hunt had him wobbly-legged more than once throughout the fight. Running away anytime you get tagged from slow fat heavyweights seems like a legit strategy, though.

As funny as it looks, running away is a legit strategy if your opponent is not punishing it. Nate didn't punish Conor, Mark didn't punish Reem, both lost their fights.

Reem's definitely been punished for it before

If punches to the back of the head are illegal then turning your back to your opponent should be a sign of surrender/DQ like in boxing

I don't think they were choosing not to punish them I think they were both just too exhausted to punish them for it. I agree though that if you can't stop your opponent casually jogging away from you that's probably on you.
