UFC 312 On ESPN+ PPV [2/8 at 10 pm ET] “Fight Night: Sydney” (Du Plessis/Strickland II, Weili/Suarez)

[KyokushinKarateMan]

What makes this even sweeter is that Dricus did it on the feet. He beat Strickland in the only area that Strickland stood a chance. And now Strickland can’t go around saying “he only won because all he did was wrestle me !”… Nope.

 

[No Ma’am]

Aussies got no choice but to respect the African.

 

[profound]

Card was as awful as advertised

yep.

most shyt cards on paper have these unpredicted bangers.

not this one, not even close.

 

[KyokushinKarateMan]

I’m so happy we don’t have to worry about hearing this fakkits mouth for the next 6 months talking about how great he is thank you to the “real” UFC African

 

[KamikazePilot]

The fact that Izzy let Strickland beat him even with his chin being gone tells me maybe the nikka wasn’t that good or as good as we hyped him to be or maybe I’m tweaking

 

[Lord Beasley]

the UFC has fallen off something serious. dana expects folks to pay for these midass cards with bad main events, but then you watch a random fight night and it turns out to be the card of the year.

Kelvin gastelum was the first to figure out Izzy had success in that fight by backing him forcing him to fight on his back foot like Strickland

 

[Lord Beasley]

DDP putting Africa on his back

Izzy just got old quick. His relaxes were god tier at his apex.

 

[Neuromancer]

Didn't he headline like 5 back to back cares before?

 

[42 Monks]

Izzy just got old quick. His relaxes were god tier at his apex.

breh izzy was in the ring looking like he'd never seen a shoulder roll and jab before

he went into that fight arrogant as hell and thought he could just simply not adapt for 5 rounds while getting dogwalked

it was straight up unprofessional. izzy's work ethic left before age caught up to him

How Sean Strickland talks about his fights:

How Sean Strickland actually fights:

The Fresh Prince episode where Will and Carlton couped up in the beach house pranking the shyt out of each other. Will puts super glue in Carlton’s hair products, Carlton gets Will back bad somehow, I think involving a chick. It boils over so nikkas squared up in the kitchen and Carlton was hyper and with the shyts but unorthodox and had his hands superglued to his head

But catches Will with a nasty lucky elbow

Look at him selling the shyt out of it like his hands are really superglued to his damn head while hitting impeccable, goofy in character ass footwork

We gotta give Alphonso his flowers on how he played the shyt out of some Carlton
