Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu: sometimes passing just isn't an option.

5th time's the charm, baby

It is kinda funny tho how that their career trajectories have matched so exactly that it's never stopped being an insanely compelling fight.

Id just book Nate Diaz on the same card so that no matter what happens with injuries, youd have an insane fight.

Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

that an alien race would be psychologically human.

Also can we talk about Dominic Cruz' terrible commentary throughout the fight? The gently caress was that all about.

"Why isn't he getting up?"

A lot of people get on Rogan for bad commentary but Cruz's commentary in the main event was bar none some of the stupidest fight commentary I've ever heard.

he may be trying to tire out khabib by smashing his face into his fist, very Homer Simpson esque in his execution, Joe rogan

Pet me.
Commentary aside, this was one of the best UFC PPVs i've seen. I missed the prelims, but every match on the card was excellent.

And when Fedor condemned it, people apparently starting harassing his daughter.

A good lad who likes his Anna's.

'harassed' is a polite way of saying 'kicked her in the chest'

a second fight has hit the octagon
I passed on this card to avoid giving Conor a cut of my $41 SGD. Missing it and this thread live is probably my biggest MMA regret since failing to put money on Rampage vs Chuck. Best gong show play-by-play since the Jon Jones hit-and-run.

He has come home, where he belongs. The Ancient Mariner returns to lead his first team to glory, forever and ever. Amen!


I think that, much like Conor's championship hopes, we are done here.
