Well, "I wanna test his standup" didn't last long..

Jan is a scary backpack.

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

The bridge of Jan's nose looks awful.

That takedown was practically in slow motion.

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

I feel that was the right decision. Alex looked like he could go another round, Jan looked like he might have a heart attack.

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

main event time.

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

I did not have that on the bingo card.

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

The sound of Gaethje’s shots landing on the arms and body is crazy.

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

Dustin needs to start checking those kicks. They are going to add up.

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

Well shit. I wasn't expecting that.

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

WTF! Absolutely HEEMED!

Never seen Gaethje even throw a high kick before today!

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

I had Gaethje winning. Definitely not like that though

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

one round down.

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

Shit shit shit... That was unbelievable...

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

I wanted Dustin to do the damn thing, but Gaethje looked phenomenal. Hell of a finish.

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

Watching Tony get pieced up like this makes me sad.

Keep an eye out around 11PM ET for the Bellator X Rizin 2 live thread. We’ll give dueling threads a shot tonight and see how it goes.

Fights start in an hour. Let’s go!

It's not only the altitude in Salt Lake. The air quality is abhorrent so I think that plays into it as well.

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

I love Lewis lmfao

His heel was to the side of the cup. Man fuck this guy.

he couldn't have landed a better kick.

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

Wow!!!! Kicked him to the roof!

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

some violent swinging tonight.

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

Damn what a clean kick.

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

Flowers and Matthews are going too hard for some welterweights at that altitude. I see gassing in round 2.

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

Salvador looks a bit cocky in there for someone who missed weight.

EDIT: and he’s getting cracked left and right

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

took her arm that time.

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

That was a quick shift of energy from eulogy to fight hype by Anik.

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

Wonderboy in a commerical? Yes please give me more of that

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

this fight is weird.

Salvador would be an elite cardio kickboxing coach for women and children

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

Shout out to Billy Blanks.

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

Good decision. Second round was close-ish, but CJ won the third clearly.

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

out of all fights... that was one of them.

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

FOTN right there. Salvador for performance of the night.

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

Get rekted Salvador

It's almost as good seeing Miranda win as it is seeing Cachoeira lose.
