looks like arman's up

 

[SpiceRacz]

Tsarukyan needs to fight Islam next. Not the Holloway/Gaethje winner.

 

[MastAndo]

Stop it, Joe. There's no planet on which Oliveira won that fight.

EDIT: Other than that first judge's home planet.

 

[MaestroMike]

congrats to arman nice axe kick

 

[MaestroMike]

 

[SpiceRacz]

Going with Max on the next one. If Gaethje doesn't finish him early, I can see Max turning it on later and taking rounds with volume.

 

[SpiceRacz]

Max took Round 1. Looks noticeably faster than Gaethje.

 

[SpiceRacz]

Holloway Round 2.

 

[MaestroMike]

good round for justin holloway seems to be up 3 rounds tho justin probably has to finish holloway

 

[SpiceRacz]

Max is outstriking him every round at this point. I think even dropping Max last round probably isn't enough to take that one.

 

[MaestroMike]

lol all those spinning back kicks from holloway

 

[MaestroMike]

GOT DAAAAAM LMAO

 

[12Goblins]

holy fuck

 

[MaestroMike]

holloway is crazy lol

 

[MastAndo]

HOLY SHIT

 

[MaestroMike]

max bout to get the 300 k bonus

 

[MaestroMike]

 

[MastAndo]

I mean, that's how you claim a BMF'er title. A buzzer beater KO after a call out in a fight you're dominating? Unreal.

 

[abstract alien]

I didn't write Max off, but I'd be lying if I said a KO was a real possibility. Fucking flowers, etc bro

 

[MaestroMike]

lol yan was out weilie should've won

 

[Krappadizzle]

So happy Max did what he did. Won the fight, and then essentially put it all on the line to really win the fight.

 

[MaestroMike]

congrats to zhang think her grappling was the big difference maker

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Watched the whole thing. Had to come upstairs I'm tired. Hell of a card.

 

[MaestroMike]

lmao got dam bro 1 st round after getting hit in the groin

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Woooooow

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Parreira hits you with his legs and hands like their granite.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Pereira is like a stone golem. Zero emotion. All killer.

 

[MaestroMike]

 

[SpiceRacz]

That was gangster as fuck.

 

[MaestroMike]

 

[MaestroMike]

alex and max are probably getting some 300k bonuses lol great PPV card wished oliveira could've pulled off the gilly on Arman but Arman fought well would be cool with him fighting islam for the belt. max was a beast at 155 maybe he should rematch dustin. i wouldn't mind seeing alex go up to heavyweight and see how'd he do. Procházka looked real good too wild fight. max was probably the highlight of the show imo that last second KO was super unexpected

 

[abstract alien]

LMAOOOO, Alex really told the ref "Don't save him". That's crazy as shit.

 

[Macattk15]

Great event. I shoulda paylay'ed the main card

 

[MaestroMike]

 

[MaestroMike]

conor coming back june 29 !!

 

[MaestroMike]

islam facing dustin next in june and strickland will face costa in the co-main

 

[Brigandier]

What a great event ... Absolutely fantastic night, Max put on a fucking clinic and Pereira was so focused dude was like the terminator staring down Hill who deserved to get ktfo after his behaviour.

 

[Kerotan]

Best night ever in UFC history. Last night that good was ufc 205. And they follow it up announcing some bangers.

 

[Little Mac]

Couldn't watch it last night and I'm still catching up on what happened via YouTube clips ... but oh my god. What a night for fight fans. I also went 3 for 3 on picks in the poll.

 

[GymWolf]

Not giving the 300k bonus to pereira after that absolute boss move is criminal.

 

[Daneel Elijah]

Not giving the 300k bonus to pereira after that absolute boss move is criminal.

Giving him Hill was probably criminal too.

 

[GymWolf]

Giving him Hill was probably criminal too.

Then rakic vs jiri, that fight was insane too.

Edit: lol jiri got the bonus, my bad.

 

[Pakoe]

Hoooooly shit, this UFC was INSANE.

Bobby Green fucking up Jim Miller.
Jalin Turner making the noob move of wanting to walk away like a bad ass when the ref didn't step in. And potentially giving away 300k.
The nasty uppercuts from Diego Lopes.
Kayla Harrison was already looking insane when she stepped in the ring, but this was a hell of an entrance to the UFC.
Jiri looked like he was getting hit so I didn't see his win coming.
Arman winning over Charles. I knew he had potential but this was a big win.
Max Halloway being a real BMF with the last 10 sec, holy shit. And the last second KO was INSANE. He deserved that 600k.
Alex still being the goat. That finish was fucking sick. Herb knew to immediately step back when he tried to stop the match lmao.

One of the best UFCs I've ever seen.

 

[EverydayBeast]

Holloway's punches weren't anything special, the eyepokes were stupid, and some of those kicks (the spinning back kick to Justin's nose) was straight up luckly, the fact that Justin got off to such a slow start (RD1 12 of 26 - 46%) I think made his job harder, there needed to be a good start.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

I only saw the final 4 fights, so I missed the rest of the fights. From what I saw it was good, although technically the fights I saw were better than they really were, since Pereira's stone cold brush off of the ref and Holloway/Gaethje's flying fists were awesome. The fight with the two Chinese women was pretty good too. Too bad the challenger has a bad ground game. Her standup is solid and she can take a punch.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Easily one of the best UFC PPV's. They know how to deliver a show.
