these p*ssy-ass critiques kill me. "ohhhh they're so unlikable! they're such a$$holes!" gimme a break man. they're fukking professional cage fighters...why would anyone expect (or demand in your case) some kind of special decorum in order to be respectable? beyond that, you only "know" those guys through post-fight interviews, promos and soundbytes and shyt.

this is same thing for all athletes. i've never understood why fans get so attached, either positively or negatively, to their 'personalities'. what difference does it make? do you know them? are you hanging out with them? they're fighters...who cares?

if i have to have dinner with some guy i think is an a$$hole, then sure, it matters. but if he's just some guy fighting for my entertainment on my tv screen...who gives a shyt about his personality?

I don't know. Maybe because if you like someone you would be more inclined to pay for their fights?

Naw he was much more patient in that fight. Waiting for gus to throw and countering. He came out the gate here flailing and basically fell into DC hands

From what I remember it was similar. I'm going to re-watch that fight though.

Ask me any questions yall wanna know about the card

Hall is a bum

nikkas was disappointed in Dodson

Andrei had the fight of the night

That cowboy fight left nikkas confused

Crowd was mostly into the Weidman vs Belfort fight

No one truly cared for the rumble vs DC fight

Atmosphere left more to be desired

Overall 7.5/10

They probably shoulda had Weidman vs Belfort the last fight because that's what people wanted to see.

Conor drew a stir the commercial was dope. Made Conor look like Johnny cage

Does anyone have a gif of that TD that Cormier landed (the one where he picked Rumble up)?

I'm not sure how Rumble beats DC other than the way he tried tonight(i.e. get the quick TKO), Rumble's got pretty good TDD, but he's not gonna win a grappling match with DC and just being made to carry DC's weight was gonna take a toll on his pretty shytty gas tank

He could win by being patient and letting his opponent come to him like hes been doing. He got excited off that one KD and went full beserker mode putting himself in poor position. Hes past fights he was much more relaxed, putting great pressure and countering. The moment was too big for him or he was too confident in his power. He can beat Cormier. You saw how he sent him flying early. Just need to be more composed and patient next time
