Damn, why is Rumble retiring? WTF?
DC is such a whiner, man, "if I retire, will they cheer me then"? Grow up.

Dude is trying to salvage what's left of the LHW division.

UFC fans are like smart marks now, cheering all the heels and booing the babyfaces.
Truly the attitude era of ufc
Yeah that was incredibly sad.

Jones is from Rochester

Jon Jones was born and raised like an hour from Buffalo. It's not all that surprising why this crowd in particular is boo'ing DC.
Maybe something to do with dog breeding? He's really into it, breeds Pitbulls already.

Glad I got to watch the main. Surprised Rumble quit not surprised D.C. won. Surprised it was the second round though.

fans love an underdog.... but fans love a comeback even more.
DC has been on top long enough now for people to want JBJ to come back for the crown.

yeah he looked surprised that they left the arena.. its the first time i saw that happen.

Honestly outside of Jones no one at Light Heavy really has a shot at beating DC. DC and Jones are just way too far ahead of the rest of the pack

If Jones is like 70% of what he was (like in the OSP fight), he still beats DC.
Nobody cares about Maniuwa (sp?)

Ehhhhhh. Pretty disappointing end to the card.
Really wanted a more satisfying ending to the co-main event AND Rumble practically threw his fight by trying to wrestle with DC (lol). UUUGH.

Manuwa just doesn't have much to offer DC. It's like.. he's just going to get put on his ass.
That Jones fight just has to happen. Especially since DC is still the champion after tonight.

And I have a hard time seeing DC beating Jones. DC beats everyone the same way, and Jones beat him at his own game.

So did Rumble throw the fight because he was retiring? He said his couches knew but they left?

The UFC trying to make Manuwa a thing goes to show how weak this division is.

Rumble probably told them if he lost again he would retire or something along those lines. Im not sure when they left? was it right when he submitted or after it was called?

I don't think he threw it but he probably didn't want to risk getting brain damage in his last fight.

Yeah don't say I disagree. Jones is unbelievable talented. Only reason I could give DC even a slight chance of winning is just Jones may have some crazy ring rust. He's only fought once in the last 2 years. I still favor Jones though.
Its just LH totally sucks now because you've got DC and Jones who just beat everyone else. Its basically just no interesting big fight there other than those 2 facing each other.

I think he did. Or at least I don't think his heart was in it so he went with a gameplan that involved less punches to his face.
His couches probably bounced because they were too disappointed
Anyways, what's the next big fight to look forward to? Cub vs Artem, right? =)

DC will have to think strike first. He's not big or strong enough at 205 to wear Jones down with grappling.
That's just so crazy to me if it really was based on him losing again. DC said he's retiring after two more fights and Rumble had a chance at beating Jones.
Ninja Scooter

I think they left because they didn't expect him to get a chance to be interviewed. The losers usually just leave.
parrotbeak

The only reason I give DC a chance against Jones is because of how long Jones has been out and how terrible he looked against OSP.

Alright Faceless and JohnsonJones, I'll run with it, but I better be entertained...
I just keep feeling more and more sad for Rumble and his coaches leaving him right now, that shit was depressing.
Don't they always get an interview in title fights?

So with what happened tonight..... What does everybody think of Moose? What's next for him?
Yeah, same. Ring rust is real for everyone, only time it didn't come into play in recent memory was with Korean zombie.

He's moose. Looked alright. Title contender fight.
No way the coaches just left because they thought Rumble was behind them and just didn't notice.
The only thing I could think of is that they wanted to give him a moment for himself? But I mean, he couldn't even see them, so they must have been gone-gone.

Moose didn't even look good. He was looking like he was gonna choke in another contender fight

I, for one, am looking forward to a lot more of crusty old DC running the division like it's a classroom and class is in session when he rocks up to the cage.
Yeah, the thing with Rumble's coaches really sucked. Feel bad for the guy. Really sucks we didn't get to see him fight Jones either.
