I can't decide what is the most Overeem fight - I think it's the Travis Browne one because he looked amazing right up until gassing and getting murdered.

I still maintain this is the funniest fight ever. There's so many layers. The best is that, when Browne knocks Overeem down with about 10th kick he's thrown in a row, he runs forward, and he's so tall an awkward it takes a small but noticable moment for Browne's head to catch up with his body.

Dillashaw headlined 177, which was the cursed card that did about 3 buys.

The TJ thing made sense when TJ didn't hold the BW belt. Now he does, however, and him going down a weight-class, thus tying up the belt, makes no loving sense at all.

He's also a perpetual frontrunner and gets knocked out the moment a fight starts going wrong.

the tyrone spong fight in k1 was so weird, because he was one or two rounds down and turned the entire fight around by making spong's face into a clay putty nightmare face with one punch. it was the one time in his career overem mounted a 100% successful comeback.

Yvel vs. Kongo is two kickboxers engaging in the greatest grappling match of all time. Yvel KO'd the referee in his next fight.

Yes.

Also, the time Wanderlei kicked him in the dick so hard that it cracked his cup. It was literally the first shot of the fight.

Yvel's given us a lot of...highlights.

The funniest fight ever will always be the mixed mma/kickboxing match between a cheating Aoki and a Japanese anime cross dresser.

Yeah a Real Champion should just fight anyone from any weight class. It was Real Competition when there weren't any weight classes at all. Also they shouldn't wear gloves!

I don't care about ducking or not. The idea of having the fight at catch-weight with both titles on the line is interesting though.

So is the Lauren Murphy fight this Friday just her being a can getting fed to an actually-decent fighter?

I mean, it won't matter, because the woman Lauren's fighting is an undefeated Brazilian weightlifter, so there's definitely going to be a tainted-horse-meat excuse in her near future.

Is a person really a champion if no one has ever heard of the people they have beat? DJ ducked so hard his best excuse was that TJ might not make weight, so he needed to fight a guy no one cares about who doesn't make weight.

That upper cut after Trigg is down is brutal. It's Trigg though so I am sure it was fully deserved.
