Thanks to everyone who participated in tonight’s thread. I’ll make sure to jump in more for the next card. Hope to see you all during the week also!

Whoop whoop!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I'm almost positive he beat him in and out of consciousness as his arms went stiff in the air a couple of times then started moving again

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

ah, the ceremonial victory twerk

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

these cage grabs and getting ridiculous, just use one of your five free fence grabs to defend a position and presto, refs happy because no more fence grabs

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

This is all John "I invented all the rules" McCarthy's fault, he used to openly talk about how it would be illogical to take a point for minor infractions, and so now it's turned into all this.

If they don't want to take a point, there should be predetermined positions that the fouled fighter can choose to restart in.

"Ok, you grabbed the cage, fighter A chooses to restart in top half guard. GO"

It's incredibly simple to stop all this.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Just hate when there's repeated fouls and then no points taken.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

sorry I wasn't as active this week.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's ok, this was a rough card

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You aren’t kidding. It’s hard to get hyped for a Holly Holm headliner.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

In the apex.

With like, the first 7 fights not having a fighter coming off a UFC win...

They're just putting out a regional product on a lot of these.

Never seen someone turn their back and run before, but I guess it works

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

damn what a beatdown

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Oh my God that's a horrrrrrrrrible injury

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

39 year old flyweight Tyson Nam later tonight. Oooh boy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Also, it's being targeted by kbin developers to have the comment box up top by next event. Should make these threads a lot better.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You just know that at some point the UFC approached a commission asking for more time between rounds so they could add an extra commercial.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Dom is quiet when no nonsense peterson is introduced

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Dana is a girl’s name

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

they are flying through fights tonight

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

This is a regional level fight, neither of these guys are UFC level

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It's ESPN undercard level 😎 (other fights were good though)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Lingo is gonna feel that tomorrow, damn.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Well loses by terrible injury and goes 0-4 in the UFC. Welcome to cutsville, GL with the arm. -Dana, probably

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Her screaming on the mic after was brutal. Ouch

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

AAHHHH BAD INJURY

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I loved the ref repeatedly saying “you’re okay” to the person whose arm just broke. She is most definitely not okay.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Met Tucker at Ground Control in Baltimore once. Nice fella.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Hey all, go upvote and boost all our highlight clips as the bot brings them over so the rest of the fediverse sees them. Thanks all.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That was crazy. He had the arm trapped behind the back. There was no defend at all.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Minty Bets is AI, and I refuse to believe otherwise

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

The Iron Turtle is a cool nickname

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

He even dances like an iron turtle, it's incredible

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Chandler was gonna Forrest Gump her way out of the cage lmfao

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You can't be laying there with your arms stuck out not defending yourself.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Wow standing arm triangle?!?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago
