UFC jibba jabba

The submission stoppage was a big controversy, lots of people saying it was early but in Herb Dean's defense from the position I seen from the fight I would of probably called it the same, there's a point when Lawler's arm drops from its position and looks like it goes limp, then the stoppage occurs only to find out that Lawler wasn't out

That one was a tough fight to see go down that way.
Main and Comain where interesting fights to watch. Woodley and Smith both looked like they were in dreamland or something. Not awake. Oh well. I guess Jones vs Santos is next? I dont see that going any different than all the other power punchers that Jones has fought

If he has to take that kind of damage in every fight I dont see him staying un-retired too long.

He says he's not there for the money, by that I guess he means he's not hurting for $.

A couple more rounds of that and it may have been stopped because of his damage.

Beautiful overhand left to KO Till, then Masvidal puts 4 or 5 on Leon Edwards face ?

Fergusons saying someone put a chip in him and is watching him ? Wow....

[mobsterboy]

Masvidal looked impressive. Hopefully they will get him back in there again soon.

Ferguson going nuts doesnt surprise me. He has to be kind of nuts to kick a metal pole. He should have relaxed and taken the surgery recovery slower imo.

He's lucky there's no athletic commission in the UK.

So Ferguson finally lost it...... I mean what did you really expect any different from someone who trains under Eddie Bravo?

Dillashaw suspended one year, stripped of belt....

Dillashaw suspended one year, stripped of belt....

Interesting. I bet Cody is doing the "Conor McGregor laugh" while watching this news. That and/or he's pulling the "Not surprised, Motherf***ers" meme out. Didn't he say Dillashaw was juicing during one of their press conferences before a fight?

Wonderboy is a terrible matchup for Pettis.

May not go well for him....

Pettis looked big at weigh ins. I wonder how much extra punishment he can take at 170.
Wonderboy is a local boy here in Upstate SC though and i occasionally attend church with him when im not travelling for work, so I've gotta cheer for Stephen.

Well well well............ Showtime huh?

[mobsterboy]

Well well well............ Showtime huh?

Impressive. Bounced off the cage, then sprung forward with that Superman Punch to close the gap. All while Wonderboy thought he'd be closing in on Pettis against the fence. Hats off to him.

One of the MMA News Youtube channels was showing the post fight reactions of other fighters after their first KO loss and how they all seem kinda broken up about it and super emotional at their post fight interview/post fight press conference.
And then they show Wonderboy's livestream from the hospital and he's all upbeat and positive, saying things like "nah it didnt hurt at all. was just fighting one second, then lost time and woke up in the back where people are telling me bro you got knocked OOOUUUTTT!!!"

Say it aint so....

[alpha_q_up23]

Honestly I don't care to see him in the octagon any more, good for him for him for making his money and running, his UFC career is okay but nothing more than something that an average top 15 contender could do if they were a great marketer, toss some luck in and bam mma superstar.

[going_home]

Is it a coincidence he announced retirement the day before this story hit ?

I dont think so.....
