    Where does Yoel Romero rank in MW History?

    Skillwise #2 is clearly Izzy. If you think Romero is more skilled than Izzy just because he potentially outpointed him in a total nothing fight, then I don't know what to tell you. That would be like thinking Derrick Lewis is a better fighter than Ngannou, or that Esparza is actually better than...

    Israel Adesanya vs Alex Pereira 1st Kickboxing Fight was a Robbery

    Nobody thinks Matt Serra is the GOAT. But people remember Matt Serra as this huge upset because GSP was so good. If GSP had retired after losing to Matt Serra, both guys would be barely remembered today like Carlos Newton or Sean Sherk. And plenty of people hype up BJ Penn based on his close...

    Doo Ho Choi vs Cub Swanson was the original BMF Matchup

    This is on the shortlist for most CTE ever in a single fight, up there with Hunt-Bigfoot 1 and Luque-Barberena.

    Is Shavkat overhyped?

    People talk about the Neal fight like it was the same situation as the Burns-Khamzat fight Khamzat was dropped twice, won that decision by a hair, and Burns isn't a striker. Whereas Shavkat wasn't dropped at all, won every round, finished the fight, and Neal is genuinely good on the feet...

    This UFC Card Another Example Of Looking Shallow On Paper, But Alot Of Fun Fights

    Well, the "what we want to watch" tier list goes like this: 1. Skilled and exciting (Oliveira, Holloway, Poirier, etc.) 2. Less skilled and exciting (Nate Landwehr, Tuivasa, Chandler, etc.) 3. Skilled and boring (Adesanya, Edwards, Strickland, etc.) 4. Less skilled and boring (Unranked...

    Is Pereira the hardest hitter in MMA history?

    Lewis is way too slow to be .50 AE. He's more like .45 long colt, and Shane Carwin can be a .410 slug or something. JDM = 10mm Auto Conor McGregor = .38 Super Sean O'Malley = 5.7x28mm Garbrandt = .22 Magnum

    Most pathetic excuse for a loss

    Colby saying he lost the Leon fight because he supported Trump, when Trump was watching that fight practically holding hands with Dana White

    Could Prime Gustafsson have beaten Alex Pereira?

    Jon was unmotivated in 2013?

    Do you think Max's lack of sparring has affected his performances?

    Gaethje is a can despite knocking out the current title challenger a year ago?

    Do you think Max's lack of sparring has affected his performances?

    I don't think so. People were calling his fight against Kattar one of the best performances in UFC history and that was well into his no spar period. Volkanovski was just on a different level. Also consider the fact that 90% of fighter's wear and tear comes from the gym. Maybe his chin wouldn't...

    Does anyone actually think Pereira beat Izzy in their first fight?

    Why do you assume that matters? Watch the fight. I don't know how they score things in some random Chinese promotion.

    Does anyone actually think Pereira beat Izzy in their first fight?

    You should just watch the fight. I mean yeah. Alex is the better fighter at 205, I'm sure. Izzy weighs 205 soaking wet. What's your point?

    Does anyone actually think Pereira beat Izzy in their first fight?

    "3-1 Pereira" doesn't actually carry much weight if it was actually 2-2.

    Poirier still defending every takedown attempt with a guillotine..

    If he somehow gets both at UFC 302, it will go down as one of the greatest moments in UFC history

    Does anyone actually think Pereira beat Izzy in their first fight?

    So Izzy putting Pereira onto a stretcher settles their MMA rivalry right? I'm not even a big Izzy fan. Besides being a weird guy, his title defenses have been mostly pretty dull. But I think it's unfair to constantly spam "3-1 Pereira" when it'd be 2-2 if the judges had done their job.

    Media Throwback to when Rockhold was on Millionaire Matchmaker "Do you swallow or spit girl?"

    The biggest "Woe is me" complainer in UFC history

    Colby Covington for going on Fox News and blaming his loss on being a Trump supporter. When he knows full well that Trump and Dana are best buds https://www.foxnews.com/video/6343633670112

    Does anyone actually think Pereira beat Izzy in their first fight?

    Recently rewatched their first fight in kickboxing: The first round was very close, with not much significantly landed. Izzy was landing more. The second round was also close, with Adesanya landing more combinations but Pereira had some good one twos as well. Again, more volume from Izzy in...

    Deiveson is damn good

    Garbrandt has never been a bad wrestler. He has an 80% TD defence rate and was able to take down Cruz back in the day. And of course Deveison is also the first to sub him.
