MMA-UFC UFC Fight Night / UFC on Fox Events

[Adzam]

Just got around to watching the main event. * that was a massive knock out. Props to gaethje. Reminded me a bit of hunt knocking out Struve where you got a smaller stocky guy landing an over hand on the tall lanky guy.

I'm not sure if it's just me or, did this seem like a huge mismatch? I honestly don't rate Vick and the outcome apparently vindicates this line of thinking.

Not really...
Vick 9-1 in the ufc.
Gaethje coming off two knock out losses.

Disagree. I thought Vick was looking great prior to backing straight on to the cage and getting caught with that shot. His record definitely suggests that he deserved the fight, but looking at his two losses I believe his chin will let him down at the top end of the division. Both of his losses have been huge KO's, but he's got skills to give top 10 guys some trouble.

Yeah that was the rhetoric leading up to the fight and the official buildup story, but the quality of opponent was a convenient omission for Vick. 2 title contender losses vs a bunch of wins against unranked opponents. I guess that situation always leads itself to a potential boilover.

Vick's proven in the past he has a bit of a glassjaw so I personally couldn't see it going any other way, especially if it turned into a brawl which it inevitably would.

Gaethje's two losses, Poirier and Alvarez.. Neither would be putting their hand up in a hurry for that rematch - both were punishing fights. Gaethje on the other hand is keen to avenge both.

Of course they aren't. Poirier is one step away from a title fight why go backwards?

Whether ranked ahead or behind, it's not a fight they'd want to do again.

Not if they want to keep what few marbles they have left!

 

[JG22]

Disappointing that

Had him for the taking

 

[DazalenkoUBewty]

Hunt, get your ass on the Adelaide card!

 

[Dan]

Saw it coming really.

Last 2 fights guys have taken Hunt to the ground.

Bareknuckle organization should consider getting Hunt. Then he won't have to worry about getting taken down.

 

[PoppedCorn]

Hunt, get your ass on the Adelaide card!

Has said he wants on the card
Think he still has 1 or 2 fights on current contract
Bare knuckle might be his way to go, not a bad idea tbh
Has absolutely no ground game

 

[Quivorir]

Always happy to see Hunt lose. Get him fighting again as quick as possible imo.

 

[PoppedCorn]

Adelaide card still not on sale?
11 weeks away

 

[DazalenkoUBewty]

A pretty good card from Brazil tomorrow.

[DazalenkoUBewty]

Good to see Thales Leites go out with a win. He won the last two rounds. Hector got the first quite easily by mainly landing damaging inside leg kicks which caused major swelling.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Santos tiring if this gets out of the third I think Anders takes it.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Santos found a second wind nicely, brutal elbows. A chance to challenge in a year or so.

 

[norway blue]
