That was an anomaly
Nice goal post move. Silva was getting rocked by those pillow fist.
That was an anomaly
Not sure if that was Ortega's game plan but deciding to stand with max was a terrible idea.
Conor needs to fight Al Iaquinta
Let Max fight Diaz. Piece him up real nice.
he fights that way against ppl with equal or worse standup.1) that is how he always fights 2) he tried some takedowns and clinches to try to snatch something up and Max defended them
Wheres all the ortega fan boys now? Couldn't do shyt with that bjj when youre getting peiced up like that. Max doesnt need to move up, dana needs to let him do his thing till he can't make weight anymore. Unlesd he wants to do conor vs max at 155 with no belt on the line so max
gets paid. Would be a hundred times better now than their first match. I would have that as a toss up.
Moicano has better standup, and that fight was mostly fought on the feet with Moicano getting the better of most of it. Ortega submitted him because Moicano shot in for a takedown and then Ortega snatched up his neck. Dude is not a wrestler, he tried takedowns and Max stopped them, if the takedowns are stopped where do you think the fight is gonna take place? Not on the ground...he fights that way against ppl with equal or worse standup.
That was enough to give both Holloway and Ortega a well-earned $50,000 for Fight of the Night. But it was also enough for Holloway to snag $50K more for a Performance of the night award, bringing his total bonuses to $100,000.
Thiago Santos, meanwhile, earned the evening’s other Performance of the Night. He’ll head back to Brazil with an extra $50K after ending his light heavyweight slugfest with Jimi Manuwa via second-round knockout.
The UFC announced a sellout crowd of $19,039 at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena paying a gate of $2,481,552.

Yes joe was really going In with the hyperbole . And I love max but I was sitting there thinking didn’t Aldo Just run this division and trying to figure if Max was already better than himJoe Rogan: "There's never been a better featherweight champion"
This motherfukker, you forgot about Jose Aldo not losing for a fukking decade
One thing I will say about the UFC is that they've really built a solid foundation up north, ppl are UFC crazy in Toronto compared to boxing.
It's ALL about coverage though, they have a deal with TSN.
Max is better though. His reign wont be as long though cause he will move up eventually. Also who was aldo fighting in W.E.C i cant remember if faber and brown and cruz were in his weight class then.Yes joe was really going In with the hyperbole . And I love max but I was sitting there thinking didn’t Aldo Just run this division and trying to figure if Max was already better than him
