I don't remember any of it because I was talking through most of it, was shitfaced, and had the volume off so didn't have any pundits to help lead the way:
That Yan knee was absolutely outrageous. I felt like I saw Yan looking a bit angry beforehand and thought "if he was a rascal he could knee him here" and then boom, right in the kisser. Knew Sterling wasn't going to recover from that the second it hit. I still can't understand what Yan was thinking.
Nunes is both a testament to Women's MMA and also a testimony to the weakness of it. She is undoubtedly one of the greatest fighters I've ever seen, but there is no depth to any WMMA division once a truly brilliant fighter emerges. In fairness I suppose the same could be said about Khabib.
Glad Blachowicz held it, I saw he was the underdog and thought that wasn't paying respect to the quality of him as a fighter, not to mention the fact Izzy was seriously, seriously underweight. If you aren't cutting weight to get on that scale, Vs someone who has cut several pounds, you can be looking at almost a stone weight difference.1 -
With Yan I can kind of see what Rogan was moaning about about a title being decided that way especially for Sterling, no one wants to win like that. But doing something that dumb Yan absolutely deserves to have the title taken from him.1
-
You don't deserve to win a title like that, but you also don't deserve to retain your title doing that.
They need to fight again, soon.0 -
Incredible card, Nunes is another level. I used to think that about Rousey so perhaps there is a secret somewhere! Jan deserved the decision.
Will be interest to see what happens with Yan, someone from his corner said just punches but someone said yes to the knee. All very strange, especially with his fist in the air as the decision was being read out.

Yan sterling will just have a rematch. Was just instinctive/unfortunate.

The judging on Saturday was especially questionable - there were about 4x 10-8 rounds given in the course of the night which is the most i've ever seen by a long way, a lot of the time I couldn't even tell you what for!
Joe getting a lot of stick for his bias again as well, although I couldn't hear his commentary due to my mate snoring so loudly through the video call

What a crazy main card! 2 no contests and some great knockouts.0
-
Yeah was enjoying that until the ending. Thought Bilal might have been pouring it on a bit but his eye looked a mess. So unfortunate. Edwards must feel cursed at the moment.0

Lets hope they scrap the rematch and go straight to masvidal, when crowds return, in england 🤪😍.

Yeah I don't see much point of a rematch, Masvidal would be great.0

Khabib's retirement is official. Chandler v Oliveira on May 15th for the lightweight title.0

Yeah that's some Dana BS right there. Olivieira fine but Chandler does not deserve a title shot so early.0
-
Agreed, so watch Chandler win it! 😀colthe3rd said:Yeah that's some Dana BS right there. Olivieira fine but Chandler does not deserve a title shot so early.

Probably not. They're prizefighters and the Conor trilogy will make him a very rich manCurbey said:

Ah would love do bronx to win! Love the wild chutebox style Looks like a classic fight in the making!Nothing out there for khabib really (even non prime gsp isnt appealing really), plus made the conor money, and promised his mum.0

Exciting to see if edwards can stop usman or covingtons takedowns now. Cant imagine his wrestling has improved that much relative to those two guys.0
-
Then again he beat both gunnar and RDA0

Luque handing Woodley his first submission loss ever - with a D'Arce, fantastic performance. With that being Woodley's last contracted fight, hard to see him not getting released.1
-
Ngannou is a monster.
Genuinely fought a perfect fight and addressed all of his mistakes. If I'm Jon Jones I'm saying it was a prank and staying at 2052 -
Only watched the main card but that was great. I'm sad for Stipe, but fair play Ngannou worked on the things he got wrong in the first fight and fully deserved that.1
-
Last punch was brutal, Miocic already looked done but he absolutely murdered him.Braziliance said:Ngannou is a monster.

I really want to see Jones hurt by him. He's due about 15 years worth of karma.1
-
Nganou was amazing - stuffing the takedown and all. Should really be a rubber match.Jones nganou is massive! Have to route for jones as the goat.0

I think Woodley is off to Bellator, he was unlucky to get stuck by the cage but his legs were done regardless. Takes some shine off of Colby which is a bonus!
Perfect performance from Francis, he'll be champion for a while with that takedown defense.
Also on perfect performance, anyone see Pimblett?2 -

I think T wood knew his only hope of getting a new contract was to win and do it impressively. He should have gone into his previous fights with that same attitude and he might have more of a chance of wins/new contract. That said though he sucked the life out of that division for a while though I do have some sympathy that he wasn't necessarily given the respect he deserved of being a dominant champ.Friend Or Defoe said:I think Woodley is off to Bellator, he was unlucky to get stuck by the cage but his legs were done regardless.
