That's fucked Welp this sucks for everyone involved, that's a brutal way to lose your undefeated record.

This should be more common given how the UFC pays the fighters. If you're only fighting twice a year you need to be building skills, a business, a brand, or atleast working remotely for at minimum $40,000 and 401k benefit. I don't care if you have to stream on twitch for some steady income...

Chandler should starch him, Conor hasn't looked very good for a long time. People are basing this matchup off the Chad Mendes and Eddie Alverez fights which were 8-9 YEARS AGO. Conor has never looked good at WW, his power is overrated, and his gas tank will be even worse. I can understand if...

Good ole Herb

The King of the Jungle That win still blows my mind, you can really see how tight the choke was in this video. It really sucks we can't watch these fighters forever. I wish we could see a few more performances, but if the Stipe fight is his last, what a career.

Yes, The UFC has really ramped up their manipulation tactics to sway fights in a way that benefits the company. Islam may be super boring & uninteresting to most, but his connections through Khabib make him extremely valuable. Just having Khabib there occasionally to support Islam helps sell...

Can't lie, I love watching this guy lose. Just one more knockout and I'll be satisfied, well maybe two.... Good job performing that eye exam on Bruno, but now it's time for a step up in competition Chris <{yearp}>

Oh yea for sure, I agree it's 100% deliberate and by design. Conor was running his mouth about how much he was making the company, and how he was the reason they sold for so much. They shut that shit down and started hiding the PPV numbers so now the fighters are even more powerless smh. The...

UFC is bad at promoting their fighters, the fighters don't have the means to easily market themselves or build brands like boxers can because they're stuck in predatory contracts. Boxing could dominate the PPV landscape, but it's too spread out with too many rivaling promotions. Boxing doesn't...

The hype has understandably simmered down. The Gordon fight showed, and the Tony fight confirmed, that Paddy isn't an elite LW fighter. Outside of a couple more gimme fights against past their prime vets, the jig is up. Nothing against Paddy, it's just the clear as day reality.

No possible way, like literally zero 0.00% Conor sold 2.4mil against Khabib, and did 4.3 million against Floyd, these numbers are absolutely ludicrous historically. Conor was involved in two of the top 5 highest selling combat events in history, he is on an entirely different...

The mental toll that injury takes on you is immense, he's trying to win the mental battle with himself with all this Terminator talk. His mentality is admirable, but it only shines light on his inner doubt and uncertainty. He might try to throw the left leg frequently to get over the doubt, but...

This is the kind of stuff that endears you to the fans. Respect, he's doing everything he can to get back to the top. Should be a great matchup, Hill's volume and pressure should be too much for Khalil I think. The recent TKO loss and Khalil's hot streak makes the fight all the more intriguing.

I agree, that's why "Peak" and "Prime" are also important to differentiate. I rarely see anyone acknowledge the difference. You can be past your most effective peak form in fighting, yet still evolve in the later stages of your prime to continually be effective. Aldo is a good example as you...

The issue is fans correlate win/loss records to an actual fighters' individual performance or lack thereof, when it's more nuanced and deeper than that. Just because Aldo could still beat top ten guys, doesn't mean he was anywhere close to his peak when he was fighting Marlon, Yan, Stephens...

If he is smart he'll wait to see the winner of Chandler vs Conor, that's a gigantic potential payday if Conor can pull off a miracle. If Chandler wins that's still a gigantic BMF fight against an old and aging Chandler, you beat up Chandler and then maybe he can finally get revenge on Dustin...

Watching Dustin dominate him in his last fight was just sad. The way he was easily overwhelmed, taken down, and brutally beaten off his back is a horrible sign. We had never seen Conor get outclassed in a matter of 2 minutes like that. And that was Conor in the first round, 3 years younger. Hell...

Yea I think he'll be fine.

Silva is the better MMA boxer with far better striking defense, offensive grappling, defensive grappling, speed, agility, movement, MMA stamina, durability, chin, reflexes, experience, and fight IQ. What advantages Alex has in his low kicks is quickly muted by the sheer absurd arsenal of fight...

It was insane that he really didn't go out, he was eating those hammer fists in a complete daze. What a unique sequence that led to the KO, it's so rare for fighters to wave a ref off and continue the action. I can't remember a time where a fighter literally grabbed the ref's arm and stopped...
