Nis posted:tko (doctor stoppage) due to some kind of heart issues maybe I think Dada 5000 also suffered kidney failure in the course of the fight. Then Kimbo tests positive for nandrolone in Texas of all drat places and it becomes a no contest. It was kind of the most Bellator fight of all time.

I had totally forgotten Rockhold and Weidman moving to 205 but their failures kind of make Santos and Adesanya look really impressive trying their hand at 205. Santos is on a slide but he did finish Jan.

Dana is a lot closer to Vince McMahon than he is other fight promoters. He seems to have a very narrow view of what a star is in MMA. You can't make someone a draw that won't work with you (Mighty Mouse) but they also seem to sit on their hands until it's a little too late with some people that are obviously dynamite fighters (Donald Cerrone, ignoring his various awful behaviors). But then Dana throws the machine behind a baffling choice like Sage Northcutt.

Josuke Higashikata posted:I wonder how just how hard Usman hit Masvidal for the sweat to visibly explode out off his head from all angles and distance like he's a sponge hitting a wall. It's like watching 90s heavyweight boxing again. Nearly every hit was knocking sweat off dudes like that.

kimbo305 posted:It's placement. A proper check has your femur and knee pointed in the direction the shin is swinging in at. Gonna be shin to shin contact. What happened to Crute is like, the ideal thing my coach initially told us about leg kicks. It's really cool to see it just work like that.

Weidman seems to make extremely poor decisions as his gas tank drains and being more sapped from the weight cut certainly contributes. Which then leads directly to the spinning kick that got his brains beat out by Rockhold... Then the matchmakers threw him to the wolves with Yoel and Gegard right after that both scrambled his dehydrated brain even more. So I guess we can say it's a perfect storm of the IV ban, awful beatdowns, and the UFC's unforgiving matchmaking. The guy really could have used a soft touch fight after Rockhold.

Izzy isn't ducking Whittaker but he knows its better to fight him quick after a 5 round fight that went the distance. That's not even shameful, he's just smart.

If I have the timeline right Whittaker was asked after fighting Kelvin, Izzy gets the offer and says, "Yeah but we fight ASAP". So it puts Whittaker in the position to fight a guy that killed him with possible injuries along with having a short camp because of the pandemic. Izzy either gets Vettori, who he has already beat or a diminished Whittaker. Being prize fighting, Izzy is very smart.

ilmucche posted:Yeah that was definitely a joke. I've got a friend who has bars for his spine and he showed me an xray where one had broken because of exercise You're telling me WWF lied and Lex Luger's titanium forearm didn't make him hit harder? Also didn't Rogan believe the metal RDA had put on his jaw after the break made him harder to knock out?

chaleski posted:So they never specified why he was pulled from the Cowboy fight and now he's cut? Interesting https://news.yahoo.com/ufc-releases-diego-sanchez-as-dana-white-blasts-his-bats-nuts-coach-joshua-fabia-054815907.html Yahoo Sports posted:The UFC has been concerned for some time about the behavior of Sanchez’s coach, Joshua Fabia. Sanchez’s release, however, was facilitated because even though Sanchez passed his medicals for a planned May 8 fight versus Donald Cerrone, neither Fabia nor attorney Charles N. Lakins would confirm to the UFC that Sanchez was not suffering from either short-term or long-term medical issues.
