Magomedovs patient striking reminds me a lot of Joanna Champions.

There is a line between "cautious" and "idiotically timid". Magomedov should have known the easy finish was there.

Lmao Abel Trujillo lost. Clay Guida lost. This is a great card already.

Magomedov is very good but his lack of killer instinct in this final round is probably going to hurt his cache in the UFC.

I think Gadelha wasn't ready by November and the UFC had to move the Rousey/Joanna double headliner to November after Robbie got hurt.

I love that Brazilian Cowboy is now in lightweight so there can one day be a battle for the title of true Cowboy.

The man was almost dead on his feet, and even the few tentative attacks Magomedov was reluctantly willing to throw out there was still enough to topple Burns over. He did not need to take any stupid risks, an easy finish was obviously available.

Burns stopped coming forward after getting hurt and so wasn't as open to the counters anymore. Then he was basically backpedalling the entire third round. I dont think Burns looked as hurt as you seem to think he was.

I sympathize with what you're saying, because we could definitely see Burns fully locking the knee on his lead leg every time he took a step. Burns was barely conscious and Magomedov definitely gave him the time he needed to recover. He could very well have finished by being more aggressive. But at the same time I see Magomedov's strategy. He knew that the only possible way he could lose that fight was if he got careless, and gave up a takedown or allowed Burns to catch him with a punch. I'm certain his camp emphasized the importance of staying safe and striking conservatively, because Burns has a really dangerous ability to turn a momentary error into a takedown and a submission loss. There's also the fact that, even if Magomedov had chased the finish, Burns still could have done the Werdum flop and bought all the time he needed to recover, because there was no way Magomedov was going to dive into his guard. e: this is in the 2nd round, specifically

I dont think Burns looked as hurt as you seem to think he was. I still firmly disagree, but I just realized that I strongly disagree with 2 posters (including Marching Powder) whose opinion I usually have a lot of respect for. So, I'll just accept that I may or may not be wrong on this one and enjoy this current fight.
