Official UFC on FOX: Gustafsson vs Rumble Thread (Sat, Jan. 24)

[iFightSeagullsForBread]

hes a foreigner with a heavy irish accent so it makes it less potent. When his barbs start sounding like that story of silva playing in mud then its time to check that

On the stream I was watching the fights, someone in the chat said "Does this nikka McGregor forget the fact Irish were slaves?"

good to see larkin do his thing. he's from my hometown. dude was a legend around the city in high school. every month you'd hear stories about lorenz knockin somebody out. the most popular one was when some football players from our school jumped one of his homies. he came to our school after a game and called out the whole football team in the parking lot. nobody wanted to step up....one cat was from compton....he went up to his ride and said fukk compton. dude got out the ride....they squared up....other dude threw some wild punches, lorenz moved out the way came back with a shot right on the temple...homie's soul completely left his body....fell face first on the pavement...face skidded all over that shyt. lorenz runnin around screaming "who else wanna get knocked out".....that football player was the star running back and went on to play D1 at idaho state. when I heard I was laughin my ass off. dude needed that ass whoopin....he stayed pickin on weak kids in class. after that, he was a whole new person......crazy too, cause lorenz is mad humble and down to earth....never instigated a fight for no reason. hopin he can get his career back on track.

His striking was looking real crisp. He made me a fanboy tonight.

Aldo should've snuffed that fakkit for showing out. Can't wait for Jose to humble him.

What's the secret recipe to General Tso Chicken breh?


I try to cook it myself but it never taste the same as chinese spots

 

[yoyoyo1]

just curious, do black fight fans only root for black fighters in boxing/mma? what about a white guy?

i'm a non-black btw

No.

Do white fans only root for white fighters?

this would've gone so differently if this wasn't in an obscure subforum

Finally got to see the fight. Connor is good man no doubts. You can tell how seriously he takes his craft from his movement to the crispness of his striking. He kept Siver (pretty much everyone I seen him fight) at the end of his punches and closes distance so quickly yet subtly. I wonder how many years of meticulous training it takes to get his technique like that

if Aldo can't take him down and dominate him on the ground, he's gonna lose

his hands are way better than any of them dudes in the UFC, Melendez knows that's why was saying things he was sayings, fighters hate out of envy and jealousy, just like how they all said DC was gonna beat jones

If you knew anything about boxing you will know conor is finishing these dudes so easy, the straight left that dropped, look at conor's feet

he puts his entire body into the punch, Aldo and the mma guys do all upper body, if Aldo threw the straight that tagged mendez at the end of that round like how conor throws his straight left Mendes would've been sleep

You see it. His technique is very fluid and starts his techniques at his base. I was mostly surprised by his balance too, threw so many wild diverse kicks without giving siver a window.

Aldo Mcgregor is gonna be crazy

I want Connor to win just for the fukkery and entertainment value he brings , Aldo's great but he don't bring in casual eyes I don't think .

He seems like he truly believes his talk and boasts like its his divine right or something . He reminds me kind of how Weidman truly seemed like he thought he'd beat spider despite most thinking he was crazy now aldo is a bad bad man but after seeing barao, spider go down idk if aldo can't get touched

It's a bit different for me. Yeah, the confidence is there (which is great for numbers) and the striking skill is there, but I'm not really convinced by the rest of his game. I actually feel like he leaves himself open far too much when he goes in for the attack, doesn't really check kicks (which is a problem when he sticks his lead foot out the way he does), keeps his chin out as if nobody will touch him and I'm not that impressed by his movement in the octagon. That's fine against the guys he's been facing, but against guys like Aldo, Edgar and Mendes, he's going to need more than just reach and striking aptitude. The more mobile fighters in the division are going to be able to prevent him from walking them down (either through their movement or through killing his mobility), get inside his reach and tee off on him. If Conor doesn't cover up the defensive holes in his game, that fight against Aldo's going to be a very bad night for him.

It's not like Weidman, where I thought he was going to cause Silva problems due to his world-class grappling skill and strength (didn't think he would win though). I really don't see anything here that Aldo couldn't deal with. Not saying that Conor couldn't win (he's good enough and creative enough with his striking to catch him with a hard shot and take the belt that way), but just that there's nothing here to suggest that he's just going to walk into Vegas and snatch the belt off of Aldo's waist in a few months.

Why?

bandwagon asian fans who were never interested in boxing before pacquiao are really the ones i hate .and the ridiculous comments they made during pacquiaos reign(before getting ko'd by marquez) claiming he could take on anyone even beating up the klitschko brothersjust pisses me off...

a skilled midget beating skilled heavyweights who are both around 6'6 and 6'7??? fukk off!!!!
