benavidez was mad at this guy for an 'illegal strike', in his mind that's why figueiredo won their first fight. so he was all mad and feeling disrespected and coming back for blood against some dirty fighter that cheated him.

but instead of getting revenge, or even just putting up a good, competitive fight...he got his ass-kicked, and way worse the 2nd time at that. he gets beat the shyt out of him on the feet, dropped multiple times, whupped and sliced to a bloody mess on the mat. and then gets choked out cold...looking like that.
brutal. damn.

gotta be tough to rebound from something like that.

edit - why the fukk is my post linking to wiki?! what the fukk.

Thanks for the Wikipedia entry breh

Nah, but you're right.

All his ego defenses, rationalizations, and dreams of getting revenge went up in smoke in the hardest way possible. Breh went from having a built-in reason why he lost the first time to the knowledge that Figuireido would have killed him with his bare hands if there was no ref involved.

I watch every UFC event and that was one of the most one-sided, savage beatings I've seen in a minute. And from a guy that Benavidez already didn't like. Maaaan, that's a tough L to take.

They know damn well they wouldn't say that shyt to dudes face at all. The problem with social media is that it has people forgetting where they actually stand in life in comparison to the people they shyt on because they think accessibility is equality and it definitely isn't. Yeah dude got mauled, but he's still accomplished far more than the internet hecklers and is doing what they wouldn't dare think of attempting.

"Fabricio weighed in at 253 lbs., but was measured at a whopping 20% body fat. Worse yet, he could barely do 5 push-ups and couldn't master a single pull-up. With advice from Jarrod (Bunch, former NFL fullback) and MHP's experts, Fabricio began eating every three hours, integrating lean protein, starchy carbs and precisely timed supplementation."

Yo he became bjj champ while seriously lacking strength on cardio and technique.

That just speaks volumes on this level of skill. BJJ is all about technique and leverage. Juiced up muscle heads have walked into many a gym with an ego just to end up humbled on the mat by dudes half their size or and don't even touch the weights cuz they had the skills on point.
