what's going on with end of round stuff?

edit. two (legal) streams were running at the same time

 

[Omegaboy13]

Hope those guys get 50k.

In the third Nguyen started to follow with the right hand behind the jab, jab landed all fight for him like a charm dont understand why he didnt follow up before. Jarno fought more urgently, Nguyen was looking to counter mostly after the first minute or so.

 

[Bradillac]

Not a fan of the early celebration, but great performance by Errens.

 

[Evbo]

a well deserved win for Errens, happy he’s got that long awaited W!

 

[Flower2dPeople]

GO home. Be a family Nguyen.

 

[Elvis.]

Cold beer for both of them , very entertaining

 

[Reach4theSky]

Good fight.

 

[GroundNPouter]

errens is on his bike far too much for a guy who has his opponent outgunned by this much. not the kind of strategy you want to see.

He wanted the win at all cost. It has to be hard when you know if you run you win not to do it.

 

[Joe Mama]

Needs more bites.

Mr. Owl,

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Tootsie Pop?

Owl : Let me consult with Igor Severino

fudge. looks like I missed a great fight

No finish, but a fun undercard banger. Lesser men would be on the canvas.

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Lotsa blood in that fight.

looked like Darren Elkins fought himself.

 

[Normo]

Errens literally runs away all round 3. Can’t wait to watch him get starched

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

not the most inspiring 3rd round for Errens with him being on his bike the entire round

yeah not what you wanna see. if you can plant your feet and get your man out of there, you should. and he could have. he just chose to jog away for 5 minutes.

 

[Bradillac]

there are like a dozen wmma fighters in the ufc who hit harder than this nguyen kid

Nyguen was walking through pretty much everything, it's not like Errens wasn't looking for the finish.

 

[KarateYeah]

Oh it's one of those start times... nice, will watch.

Yep, it will start a little before UFC ends, so it will probably work out perfectly

 

[helax]

And I watched the whole thing...

Same

 

[Joe Mama]

Hope those guys get 50k.

They should be in the black again since the antitrust lawsuit was settled.

 

[Substance Abuse]

Errens literally runs away all round 3. Can’t wait to watch him get starched

He's on a 0-2 skid, facing a cut. I get where he's coming from. He needed to save his job.

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

He wanted the win at all cost. It has to be hard when you know if you run you win not to do it.

it seems that way but that's typically the easiest way to lose a fight you're ahead in. whether you get caught because you're fighting outside your natural style, or because you give rounds away, it usually leads to bad things.
