mad respect to Vettori for surviving until the decision but he had very little for Cannonier. holy shit

got drunk last night and accidentally bet $10 on Jiminy Cricket here getting a first round win by KO/TKO/DQ. I'll get $290 if he does but uhhhhhh I've already kissed that money goodbye

Vettori saw Yoel being a punching bag last night and said he could do better.

[–] AIex@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Just saw the Keith Peterson thing, lmao having Dom in the booth was fucking chefs kiss for that. I will never stop enjoying his eternal pettiness.

Incredible that Vettori is still standing. Cannonier was teeing off.

KO of the year.

[–] familynight@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

What the fuck? This reffing is amusingly bad.

[–] SkinOfAnOrange@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wow, the ref really messed up...

Cannonier is legitimately kickboxing him up. 2-1 so far. And Jared definitely look to have the better stamina for 5.

Love how one ref ended the fight before anything happened, no tap or anything, and now one wanted to see 5 elbows to the head first.

ref after the 199th punch to the face: let's see where he's going with this
ref after the 200th punch to the face: ah shit i guess he got him, okay

[–] PartyHat@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

The ole Brazilian tap! Love to see it

[–] theusualuser@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Refs tonight putting on the clown costume a lot faster than in most fight nights.

[–] lackthought 3 points 2 years ago

UFC 290 looking good

[–] theusualuser@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Who gets it done tonight, guys? Rocky or Creed?

This is getting stopped. No way Almeida survives another round of that

[–] theusualuser@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Tots are cold by the time they get from my oven to my couch. There's no way I'm ordering them from Dominos.

Do you think Pat Sabatini and Danny Sabatello hang out?

Sabatini gave Almeida the Chimaev treatment.

Sabatini like your ultra needy ex here, absolutely smothering.

[–] SkinOfAnOrange@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

MMA on kbin yessss boyz!

[–] theusualuser@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Pretty sure their heads touched when dalby drove him into the fence right there. Should we stop the fight, guys?

[–] theusualuser@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

God damn, absolutely daddied him

[–] 2e7en@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Costa looked good. That shoutout to Grasso & Aldana was wholesome as fuck too

[–] theusualuser@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

For real. People are SO negative about women's mma. I wanna tell them to go touch grass, but you get downvoted to hell lol.

[–] lackthought 3 points 2 years ago

can't be doing that bro, next time just kick him in the nuts since you get multiple warnings for those

[–] BridgeBurner@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Hey hey new MMA

[–] TummyAcheHaver@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

I did not expect Vettori to survive that round. Very impressive

[–] theusualuser@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

My favorite ref is the ref that gives a warning if it needs a warning and takes a point if it was serious. I think too many refs are hesitant to take a point on things like fence grabs that change the whole position of fight or eye pokes that compromise the fighter for the rest of the fight. I'd like to see more points taken until the behavior decreases across the whole industry

[–] seawrack@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Slippin' Jimmy.

[–] TummyAcheHaver@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

oh fuck can you imagine if they no contest this fight, too?

Flick literally looks like the meth dealer you'd see at the mall. He sells heroin too but hates that shit, only keeps it around to keep his meth business afloat (gets high on his own supply too much)
