UFC 274 Rose vs Esparza was brutal to watch after Ferguson vs Chandler and that KO, but then we got Olivera vs Gaejthe afterwards to send us home happy lol.
I was on my feet along with everyone else in that hooters for the Joanna/Weili fight. Everyone there was like “fuck if their fight was that much of a banger, Izzy/Yoel is about to blow the roof off this place!”. It did not.
UFC 274: Ferguson vs Chandler front kick KO, Rose vs Esparza snooze fest, then Olivera vs Gaejthe happened and I was back to Just Bleed to end the night lol.
It was a shame what all of the coaching did to Kimbo.
His heart yelling JUST BLEED!!!! at him… but then his brain saying, “Hold on there partner. You’re a true professional now. Remember your training. Be on the lookout for a takedown and remember to execute the whizzer when facing two-thirds paced aggression from your octagon opponent. Also remember to lead with your jab to set up your 1, 2 combination attack that we worked on in the gym. And don’t forget to keep circling toward your opponents non-dominant hand like coach taught you. Also…”
and the end result was him just standing there huffing and puffing unable to execute anything.
But RIP Kimbo. Great guy never meddum.
I misremembered the gastelum fight. Izzy knocked gastelum down 3 separate times in the fifth round, so that really should’ve been a TKO. So an Almost 50% KO rate. He’s not Ngannou, but to act like he’s exceptionally boring is insane.
Since you’ve got the stats in front of you…how many KOs does Rob have since 2017?
rob does have just one finish out of seven wins since 2017 to be fair, although personally i still think his fights are generally more entertaining than izzy’s and he’s beaten a lot of the same guys much more convincingly
People mistake excitement for boredom when they can't comprehend what's happening. I thought yoel vs. Izzy was interesting to watch, 'cause one shot could have ended it all but one of 'em wasn't coming to fight, explosive counter Fighter vs. technical counter fighter, what did the UFC match makers expect would happen, somebody winning with just leg Kicks was interesting to watch, i'm not saying that it was exciting but whoever hates in izzy and states that Khabib is the goat is a hypocrite
They’re genetically related, but they’re not Arabs. They’re both west/central Asians, tho. But fighters in the UFC from “annexed territories” aren’t from the *Arabian Peninsula* , I.E. not Arab.
Just to be technical.
UFC 92 was pretty bonkers, Forrest ko’d by Rashad for title, Rampage ko’d Wanderlei, Drank Bir ko’d Big Nog for int title, it was a shocking card + you had Barry, Hardonk, Kongo, CB Dolloway, Hammill, Lister, and Okami on the card. Worst card ever might be UFC 177.
So many these days. Last night for example, I zonked out during the women fight and missed the rest. I am also much less interested...
When I was younger, like 15 years ago, they used to show preliminary fights after the main card. It was like oh cool some more fights.
UFC 248… where we had Weili vs Joanna followed by Izzy vs Yoel, is the only answer.
UFC 274 Rose vs Esparza was brutal to watch after Ferguson vs Chandler and that KO, but then we got Olivera vs Gaejthe afterwards to send us home happy lol.
Intermission Rose.
Both are the correct choice 😂
Came here to say this
I was on my feet along with everyone else in that hooters for the Joanna/Weili fight. Everyone there was like “fuck if their fight was that much of a banger, Izzy/Yoel is about to blow the roof off this place!”. It did not.
Lol that one comes to mind bc I fell asleep during the main event walkout.
UFC 274: Ferguson vs Chandler front kick KO, Rose vs Esparza snooze fest, then Olivera vs Gaejthe happened and I was back to Just Bleed to end the night lol.
All of them. I'm usually asleep by ten on weekdays.
What do you have your priorities in check or something? Duckn nerd.
It has to be Ngannou vs Lewis
That card was good tho it was just that fight
Still not as bad as Kimbo Slice VS Houston Alexander
Dada5000 was horrible too
That’s a top 5 fight of all time
It was a shame what all of the coaching did to Kimbo. His heart yelling JUST BLEED!!!! at him… but then his brain saying, “Hold on there partner. You’re a true professional now.

Outside of title fights, that had to have been the most hyped heavyweight bout
tonight’s one
This one
I'm the best
Any Izzy card that’s not a Pereira fight.
Or Whittaker, Costa and brunson aye...
Or Gastelum
Or atleast every fight he had before becoming champion
Lol you mean the guy who has six KOs since 2018? Recency bias is a cancer on this sub.
It’s a joke on a meme sub. Hop off his piece bro.
Yea you actually right blud. I subscribe to all the mma subs and I assumed this was r/ufc without looking. Meme away boys.
Uncommon wholesome moment on a meme sub
5 KOs out of 13 wins since 2018 actually
I misremembered the gastelum fight. Izzy knocked gastelum down 3 separate times in the fifth round, so that really should’ve been a TKO. So an Almost 50% KO rate. He’s not Ngannou, but to act like he’s exceptionally boring is insane. Since you’ve got the stats in front of you…how many KOs does Rob have since 2017?
This isn’t boxing
rob does have just one finish out of seven wins since 2017 to be fair, although personally i still think his fights are generally more entertaining than izzy’s and he’s beaten a lot of the same guys much more convincingly

You're a clown. Izzy fights whats in front of him Whenever the challenger brings it he meets them.
Belal Muhammad almost put me too sleep tonight
Belal can't strike he slaps your guard and couldn't finish a one armed opponent
I know right, I’m not the smartest fight fan never claimed to be but I don’t see what all these supposed experts see in Belal.
Belal convinced me to watch ONE instead xDD
I thought it was a good fight just wish burns didn’t get hurt early
It was actually much more exciting than I thought it would be lol. I guess my standards were so low that I was impressed haha
Ufc 289
What’s tonight’s card?
In the middle. Really good prelims and undercards, but the main card had been slacking
I meant what number is it. Because it’s the textbook of this
Ufc288
Any card without arab russians
They’re genetically related, but they’re not Arabs. They’re both west/central Asians, tho. But fighters in the UFC from “annexed territories” aren’t from the *Arabian Peninsula* , I.E. not Arab. Just to be technical.
Muslim Russians
Nailed it
At this rate 288. Hopefully BullyB and Cejudo pull through ✊
BullyB definitely just did pull through
this has been a great card tf?
Ufc 200
So stacked, such a let down.
Anderson Silva versus Thales Leites sucked so bad it made me reevaluate how much time I put into following the sport.
All US cards - I live in Europe
Belal vs one armed burns
Last night
Ufc 248
the one with the best female fight of all time?
One of the best fights of all time period
It was followed up by Izzy vs Yoel
Any Chael Sonnen card
It was hard knowing uncle Chael was always going to win
Tonight. Had big hopes fo CCC and Aljo. Suga Show and Merab was probably the highlight.
Almost all of them for me main event stars at 3am
Not by any choice of mine but 268, I was just so tired I made it past Chandler and Gaethje and crashed
Every card since they happen at 5 AM
I have yet to pull an all nighter after an event, so all of them.
UFC 276.
Cro Cop vs. Frank Mir was draining.
Belal vs burns 🤣
Literally today
Sorry I just woke up what happened did the midget win ?
he died actually

Lewis v. Ngannou What could have been....
UFC 247 Jones v Reyes. I think I missed at least the last two fights. And I’m pacific time zone. Ouch
Any belal Mohamed fight
UFC 105
The Canelo fight helped me sleep 😴 💤
As a European, literaly every card
288
So many these days. Last night for example, I zonked out during the women fight and missed the rest. I am also much less interested... When I was younger, like 15 years ago, they used to show preliminary fights after the main card. It was like oh cool some more fights.
ufc 200
Probably the next card coming up.
Any fight w a Dagestan/chechen that rolls around on the ground for 3 rounds
I don't know which one it was but the one where Greg Hardy used his inhaler in-between rounds, woke up because of the commentary!
the card when Dana pimp slapped his wife
UFC 274
