kimbo305 posted:I don't find it that surprising. He had outlasted Izzy on the ground and had hurt him on the feet. So it was a scenario he was familiar with more than the 5 MMA fights implies, and also against someone he'd already survived and came back to beat on the feet. i was looking at it from the point of view of how absolutely wrecked he should have been. he has literally never fought that long before if i'm mistaken, and then he just executes one of the best fighters in mma.

chaleski posted:Slight disclaimer for UFC 189, maybe start with the Tim Means-Matt Brown preliminary headliner and go from there, I don't remember a single thing else about the undercard if every fight prior to that was tape of dana white making GBS threads, it would still be one of the best cards ever held.

I know the Izzy rematch makes the most sense logically but gently caress it, I want my main man Bobby Knuckles to take the belt back from Pereira

He was the best and I hate how everyone eventually goes out this way. At least now he can go run around on a farm for 25 minutes at a time in peace.

MMA is a world where your duty is to realise moments pass and your favourite at a time can not be your favourite forever. There was a time when Ian McCall was a favourite fighter of mine. That was a bad horse to bet on, in every meaning of the word.

Izzy finally faces someone with enough power where dodging 99 out of 100 strikes isn't enough. And he still decides to do his Ultra Instinct bullshit that only works against old man Silva or blockhead wrestlers. The end was written somewhere in the late 2nd / early 3rd round. Bad coaching by Eugene to not smack him upside the head and get him to knock it off. At least the rematch will be good.

If the info was sensitive it would be changed by now.

I think the most  moment of the night was the commissioner getting into the Octagon and straight up rewriting the scorecards while the poor fighters were waiting for Bruce Buffer to announce who won.

Still lolling that Chris Gutierrez used his postfight interview to give shoutouts to a rival betting organization and an instagram bookie. Between Ye and Elon imploding, the dominant cultural message of the last few weeks has been "don't gently caress with the money" and here Chris is, doing his thing. God bless.
