Snatching defeat from the clutches of victory

[JustBleed69]

Fear of being taken down and submitted on the ground? That changes a strikers entire mindset.

Yeah, I guess that combined with the first elbow that hit him rocking him really badly.
Probably had him all out of sorts.

Sergio Pettis vs whoever he just fought
Arlovski vs Fedor

Has it really been that long? Y'all musta forgot about Congo vs Barry

That kind of heart is how Kongo became UFC champion.

Paul Craig submitting Ankalaev with 1 second left down 2 rounds and losing the third.

Isn't it "snatching victory from the jaws of defeat"?

Not from the point of view of the guy that loses sherbro.

If this ain't it, I don't know what is lol.

The first one I thought of. Kudos.

Volkov vs Lewis and equally Overeem vs Rozenstruik. Both comfortably winning until the last 10 seconds of a 5 round fight. Both pissed me off lol

Thiago Alves had been beating up Kampmann for the entire fight, and with one minute left in the fight he chooses to go for a takedown for some godforsaken reason (edit: apparantly according to Werdun his coach told him to shoot a TD lmao)

Kampmann did rock him bad with a front kick to the face in the first

I don't know ... Within the last 2 years whenever Overeem fought, I was always super uneasy cause you just knew that one single touch could crumble him. Even though he was winning that fight clearly, one could never ease up. He's just as close to losing as winning at any point. He has tons of such losses. Bigfoot for example.

 

[Andy Capp]

Did anyone post Silva vs. Sonnen yet?

 

[usernamee]

Kampmann did rock him bad with a front kick to the face in the first

sure he had a moment, rest of the fight it was one way traffic

 

[Enigma87]

DC Vs Stipe 2. Credit to a Stipe though for one of the best late in fight adjustments in title fight history

 

[Dirty Frank]

Isn't it "snatching victory from the jaws of defeat"?

From the perspective of the other fighter, yes.
Look at it the other way and it's still accurate.
It's like a palindrome of a post, y'see

The damage Elkins 3rd round comeback win against that undefeated wrestler was epic

That's why Overeem fights are great. He's a glass cannon, and you never know how it's going to end. But it's probably going to be a KO.

Out of the archives. Good one!
Josh was smashing drew all fight and gets choked unconscious late in the 3rd

Hardy did the exact same this against Lytle lol

 

[Jabbathehook]

That gobshite who spent the last 2 minutes of his fight with O'Malley wrestling him on the ground, despite O'Malleys foot being snapped and hanging off his calf
