Lid posted:it didn't get listed in the other thread but a performance nominee should include Rose v Joanna, the stats on that fight show just how badly Rose was messing up Joanna Depending on how much you dislike him, Ian McCall has a strong case for Best Schadenfreude for: - finally getting his release from the UFC - signing with RIZIN to compete in the bantamweight GP - losing in 90 seconds due to cut because his opponent sliced his face open on the ring ropes, the first time that's ever happened outside of a barb wire match
