The fight was good and it showed me that maybe Usman isn't always a wet blanket wrestler, and now maybe I can begin the road to liking him as a fighter.

Also I'm still owed a sixer or 3 day for that last Arlovski loss. I need my KO'd Arlovski probe.

Colby fans on Twitter right now:

A. "He's a warrior for fighting with a broken jaw!" (conveniently forgetting what would have broken his jaw)

B. He didn't have a broken jaw, fight was called early, he was about to win the decision.

C. Wasn't going to win, but is still better than Usman.

Bonus: All the people crying "ILLEGAL STRIKES TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD! AT LEAST SIX! ZOOM IN AND SLOW DOWN THE FINISHING SEQUENCE! COLBY IS STILL CHAMP!

Rewatching some of the earlier fights, and Pyotr Yan looks really good. Wasn’t super impressed with his last fight iirc but every other time I’ve seen him he’s looked scary.

I'm still not really convinced that there are actually Colby fans and not just a bunch of sock puppets.

Was anyone from these threads at the event last night? Were ther eactually arena-wide "Colby" chants going on? I noticed part way through the fight that the levels for the commentary/crowd noise were loving goofy as if the broadcast was just cranking the crowd mics up at certain times to make it sound as if some things were louder than they actually were, and then having to rapidly turn it down when the arena got actually noisy. :tinfoil:

Also with Joe DC and Anik repeatedy saying boilerplate poo poo like "COLBY COVINGTON SURE HAS PEOPLE WHO LIKE HIM GEEZ HE'S SO LIKEABLE AND A STAR"

I don't think anyone will ever top Conor fans after Diaz 1 or even Khabib when they were basically saying he won because the other fighter didn't stand and trade. Whenever there are rumours he's getting booked they're all over the other guy's twitter daring him not to use cowardly grappling.

Edit: I can't believe how hard the booth is selling this "broken jaw". Yes his left TMJ is probably jacked up bad (everyone who's been hit from the side with their mouth open knows that one) but if he was talking in the corner it's not broken. It's actually not that bad if he keeps his mouthpiece in.

Nah it sucked. The worst part was when Jon Anik said during a shot of Usman, "Colby Covington is looking to put him in his place."

the crying about illegal strikes to the back of the head reminds me of me when I first started watching and had no idea what was what in MMA

I also like the calls about the bias announcing. As if Joe didn't think Colby rocked or hurt Usman like a dozen times over the course of the fight.

all I know is the bar I work at went wild when Colby lost. haven't heard as much cheering since the Eagles beat the Patriots in the super bowl.

People were chanting "gently caress you Colby" and had to be asked to calm down. :unsmith:

Human Garbage
Watch me try to laugh this title off like the dickbag I am.

I also hang out with racists.
How similar was this Colby thing to the time Sean Sherk lost to Frankie and ran out of the Octagon, out of the arena, into the streets and then Keith Kizer had to call him on the phone and tell him to get the gently caress back to the arena to give a post-fight piss sample or else have his licence permanently revoked

Cause that's what I'm reminded of here
