Alaois posted:Went to bed before the main, read back through the gdt when i woke up, genuinely shocked at how many people here expected Ciryl loving Gane to pose any kind of challenge to Jon Jones It's silly to Always Bad one of the more skilled and athletic heavyweights in history. Other than showing bad grappling IQ against and being lead blanketed by Ngannou (in a fight that could easily have been scored 3-2 in his favor if the one round where Ngannou didn't throw a strike had been scored according to the letter of the law), Gane's shown to be a good, dangerous fighter at a size Jones hasn't had to contest with before. Jones hasn't looked like a world-beater for the past half decade and barely scraped by a no-legged Thiago Santos; him completing obliterating Gane was by no means a no brainer. He sure did make Gane look like poo poo, though. Massively disappointing.

blue footed boobie posted:Tuivasa was on a winning streak at the time which made it all seem somewhat reasonable. But lol there is no one in this division anymore and after Jones fights Stipe it will be entirely irrelevant. Blades and possibly Aspinall (who's demonstrably dangerous and talented, and with some actual grappling in his back pocket, though he's way too untested in the wrestling department to know how he'd fare against Jones, not to mention coming off of his one knee exploding) could pose interesting challenges, though obviously they have very limited pay per view appeal.

The first Woodley/Thompson fight was suspenseful and cool to watch in the moment, IMO. Probably wouldn't hold up on a rewatch, knowing it goes the full 25, but at the time it felt pretty exciting because the big moments were very dramatic. The second fight, and really all of the 2 remaining hours of Woodley's in-cage career (Luque brawl and the final minute or two of the Till fight notwithstanding), did end up being pretty painful to sit through, though.

Lawler had great fights, but he (should have) won just 1 of the 5 UFC title fights he was involved in. Still bummed Condit didn't get to be recognized as the rightful champion for at least a couple of months.
