MMA-UFC UFC 257

[phantom13]

Muradov has really taken over here (cue the Sanchez finish now)

 

[NonPhixion]

Good fight. Sanchez took some punishment, tough dude

 

[Ry009]

Good fight. Good stoppage by Herzog who is one of the best referees.

 

[checkraiseulite]

even marginally late

sanchez looks like an 80s hockey player - mullet included

 

[Topkent]

That’s fine, don’t run in then.

My issue isn’t that he let it go it’s that he came in looking like he was calling it then either changed his mind or stumbled.

Even if you give him the benefit of the doubt it was all pretty awkward.

Fair enough I think it was clumsy if anything but Rodriguez makes it look way worse by stopping

Good fight. Good stoppage by Herzog who is one of the best referees.

Since 2015, only two refs have been in charge of McGregor fights in the UFC.

Herzog is not one of them. Neither is No Nonsense 'Alcohol and Cigarettes' Keith Peterson.

Make of that what you will.

no nonsense will be sipping proper 12 in the back smoking some duty free cigs

 

[Topkent]

Can't wait to watch this fight...

 

[mouncey2franklin]

These two girls are a combined 2-4 from their last three fights.

And Uncle Dana wants $70 for a card with them as the third top billing?

But conor...

What do you guys think of Brett Okamoto?

Reddit mma (where I steal most of my mma memes) seem to generally dislike him.

But I don't get it. He is good at his job. Speaks well. Knows the fighters and their histories.

Are people just jelly that he is a handsome dude with one of the coolest jobs in the world?

 

[NonPhixion]

Card pacing is really good

I don't mind him, only thing I could think of as why people wouldn't is he seems to be a very company man. Lot of soft ball questions

But personally I don't mind him

 

[phantom13]

I love me some Jojo, the Mrs.Doubtfire accent is adorable.

 

[NonPhixion]

I think Eye smokes her & the $2 on her looks a good bet

This, he’s so completely innoffensive can’t see why you would dislike him enough to even comment.

 

[mouncey2franklin]

This is from Okamoto's instagram, apparently the day Dustin got out of juvey.

Good eye wins this in a canter, bad eye loses a boring decision.
The difference between her best and worst is staggering

Throwing out a general comment for thought, thoughts on up and coming fighters in the US versus non US?

Seems a lot of international fighters do longer apprenticeships and are more seasoned before coming to the UFC.

Understand no US fighter will turn down a shot in the UFC especially with the organisation based there, but looking at the list of champions in the UFC, might be to their detriment?

Israel Adesanya is the poster boy for this.

 

[PoppedCorn]

Eye will be too strong surely

Cmon jojo
Upset

 

[phantom13]

It’s a weird comment cause no one likes being hit but Jojo REALLY doesn’t like getting hit. She has all the skills but she clams up really bad in the fight.

Brock Lesnar was similar.

 

[phantom13]

Sidebar for any whisky drinkers in here. Is proper twelve any good? Only heard a few people say it’s s**t.

There's just talent all over the world now, don't think there's much reasoning. Just that it's not a sport dominated by the richest couple.

 

[phantom13]

Eyes got a chin. Jojo is sort of throwing everything at 70% but a few of those shots have landed clean
