I think I'm gonna die, can't watch this

Let's gooo, Yanez v Martinez is my most hyped fight tonight!

Those leg kicks are so painful.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Absolutely crazy how much of those he actually hit, and that while they looked like they really had sting to them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Oh man, that hurt to watch.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Look at the size of Andre's quads :O

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Two bare wires.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Jesus, these cuts.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thanks everyone for participating. Make sure to stop by next Saturday for Volk vs. Islam 2!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I'll be here for sure.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yusuf liver must be hurting like he'll.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Edson has been going to the body a lot. He'll be a legend, well more of one, if he pulls this off.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I am happy for Edson!

...but 49:46 doesn't feel right.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I'm OK with the 46, but that 49 should be no more than 48.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sometimes on those random cards the dudes and ladies just want to throw down.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I think even on paper today's card looks decent enough. Almost every fight has something interesting going on.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Those ladies be crazy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thanks ugmug for all the work on this community.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

You’re welcome. Sorry I haven’t been too active in the live threads. I’m going to be here for Volk vs. Islam fo sho!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oliveira is outclassed on her feet and on the ground. Maybe she'll pull something out of her back pocket.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

That last round was crazy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Fuck, I actually missed the McKinney fight without noticing. Looking forward to the clip! Edit: His fight history is crazy by the way. No decision to be seen, and the last time he has seen a third round was in 2018!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I actually blinked and almost missed it myself.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

That Elkins v Brown fight was fun to watch.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Amazing fight, I scored it to Rodriguez

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Yeah, I thought it was clearly Rodriguez.

EDIT: I also think if you can't make weight twice in a row, you should have to go up a class for some number of fights.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah, I hate it when guys I wanna cheer on miss weight.

Kinda spoils it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah I also have it for Rodriguez, but good competitive fight.

Look at the size of Michel :O

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Just imagine what he can do with more sauce opportunities soon.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Fights start in 30 min. Let’s go!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Should I stay up till 4am?

Probably not, but let's see how it goes.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Can't miss our Edson Barboza.

Where are you from???

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

From Germany.

I am afraid for Edson tonight.
I hope he can pull out another classic finish.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I hope too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yay, a fellow German! Definitely stay up tonight!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Damn they really ended that one strong.

I guess Ducote gets this one?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Rough round for Barboza.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I might have missed it, but I didn't see a mention of Irvin in your link. Although I know of what you are pointing out.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

How did Edson survive that? Jesus christ.
