 We've got a PPV in the little cage at the Apex tonight! Main Card - ESPN+ PPV, 10PM ET Main Event: Heavyweight Title - Stipe Miocic vs Daniel "DC" Cormier How we got here: Daniel thumbed Stipe in the eye and socked him in the jaw on the clinch break in the first fight. Then Stipe socked Daniel in the guts in the second fight. Now they fight a third time. Co-Main Event: Bantamweight - "Sugar" Sean O'Malley vs Marlon "Chito" Vera How we got here: O'Malley made a name for himself by knocking out a guy on Dana White's Contender Series, and having Snoop Dogg yell about it. O'Malley then beat Terrion Ware (currently in the midst of a 6-fight losing skid), Andre Soukhamthath (too dumb to stand up), Jose Alberto Quinones (he seems actually decent), and Eddie Wineland (old n busted). Marlon Vera has been in the UFC since 2014, racking up 14 fights in those 6 years, going 9-5 (though that Song fight was p dang close). Oh, also, let's not forget that the Suga Show is powered by Ostarine. Heavyweight - Junior "Cigano" Dos Santos vs Jairzinho "Bigi Boy" Rozenstruick how we got here: JDS is a former champion, way back in 2011. Junior's currently on a 2-fight losing skid, having been nuked by N'Gannou, and getting sliced by the Razor Blaydes. Rozenstruik's also feeling the effects of Francis N'Gannou punches (They're not good. For your head), having lost to "The Predator" in 20 seconds back in May. Both dudes are strikers, but Junior always has the possibility he will "go for the take him down" to neutralize Jairzinho's kickboxing background. "Featherweight" - Daniel "The Pit" Pineda vs Herbert "The Blaze" Burns How we got here: Burns' baby bro has done quite a lot, like beating Tim Nasty, the guy that upset Eddie Alvarez in his ONE Championship debut. Herbert also won on Dana's Contender Series, and knocked out Nate "AY MAN, THIS IS A EASY FIGHT, IT'S JUST GILBERT BURNS' LIL BROTHER. WHAT'S THE WORST THAT COULD *HURK*" Landwehr. The SmolBurns is currently riding a 5 fight, 5 finish win streak (2 in the UFC). Pineda is a long time vet, having beaten the likes of Johnny "Ohio?" Bedford, failed clone of Green Bay Packers coach Vince Libardi, and Kier GOOCH. He also dropped a few fights to Chas Skelly on the regional scene. Pineda did make it to the UFc back in 2012, going 3-4. He bounced around Bellator before joining the Professional Fighters League, beating 2 dudes in 1 night, except he failed a drug test and both were overturned to No Contests. Anyway, Pineda hasn't technically lost since 2017, riding 4 straight wins, all finishes on the D-leagues. Bantamweight - John "The Magician" Dodson vs Merab "The Machine" Dvalishvili How we got here: Dodson is a two-time loser of the "ok, but now you gotta fight DJ" sweepstakes, and has since moved up to bantamweight, and also has not managed to win 2 in a row dating back to 2015. He is notable for getting kicked in the junk numerous times per fight, and secretly being a squirrel transmogrified into a (tiny) man. Dvalishvili, sporting the edge all-black papakha, dropped his first 2 UFC bouts, but has won his last 4, all by decision. Expect to hear some excited Serra/Longo hollering Prelims - 8PM ET, ESPN, ESPN+ Jim Miller is cool I like Livinha Souza Early Prelims - 7PM ET, UFC Fight Pass i dont know who these dorks are  e: well, except this https://twitter.com/LegKickTKO/status/1294752509676879872 DON'T FORGET TO SUBMIT YOUR PICKS FOR GOONWEIGHT https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3933691 LobsterMobster fucked around with this message at 00:23 on Aug 16, 2020 |

I want Miocic to win just to avoid the farce of DC retiring as champ and having Miocic-Ngannou fight for the vacant title

Kelley got mad and started talking to Kamaka and landed some really good shots before letting himself get taken down there.

Daukass was actually really impressive with his accuracy for his big gangly size. Definitely not your standard wysiwyg trash garbage although granted, he's still fighting the nobodies, that a decent first outing for him in the UFC.

"Punch her loving mouth." Can't really argue with the cornering logic I guess.

Gotta say, this is the kind of loss that makes me a fan of the fighter, that's a legit 3rd round effort considering the beating he'd taken. Chavez lookin impressive as hell though.
