Dammit, I was hoping he got the belt..
How can you be such a killer against just about everyone in the division but when you go against one dude u become a bottom bunk bytch. Dude is a classic case of a front runner with zero fight IQ. Wouldn't surprise me if he's a bully either, dude basically turtles the first sign of pushback.

What a bitter finish to a cold 3 fight streak and career, can't believe I invested so many years being a fan living in hope he'd turned a corner.


Ps on another note the fuk is up with MMA? Feels like the whole sport is in its final season .

Nice card tonight, good mix of exciting fights, controversy and a lol down time so I can put back some pints.

I'm happy DC won, keeps that division in order, and I'm just glad St his age he's able 2 make some bank and still win clean. But I'm starting to get to the point where I wanna see him at HW again. I know he doesn't want to cous vain is his team make but there's stype and jus 2 smaller size He's that wld just be a great match up for him and could honestly see him winning. At this point in his carrier 38 yrs old he only has a few more fights left at a high level to make some bank b4 either his jaw goes or skills diminish.

I get Henri felt some type of way with the way Rumble fought the fight but :damn: you didn't have to leave him out there. So he's possibly gonna work for the Rams interesting.

Rumble admitted he just wanted to fight and was like old blue eyes. He wanted to go out his way :manny: he's still their pride pupil until someone wins a UFC belt over there.


Looks like he will be doing something with the LA Rams.

What I was thinking was that Rumble expected the wrestling so he thought he'd be on the offensive instead of playing defense all night. Maybe he figured DC wouldn't expect it and get caught by surprise. :yeshrug:

UFC still pushing Holly as a main eventer so she can shadow kickbox for 25 minutes is absurd, she's had one good fight and that's because Ronda kept running into her punches. And lmao at Bethe in a main event, UFC looking real sorry these days.
