Holy shit what a KO

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

I put the thread up early as I will be mobile.

Fights start at 4 PM ET, or approximately 4 hours after this post. Get hype!

[-] Dent7777@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Brenner looks like a marauder, crazy that he's able to do this to Guram.

[-] Dent7777@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Sick finish to the round from Guram! Had Brener on queer street.

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Damn, Kevin Lee's fall from grace has been something to behold.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

I’m surprised the UFC brought him back after struggling to beat the ghost of Diego Sanchez.

So Mel Gibson went to the apex to watch Sean Strickland vs Magomedov

I'm dead

[-] dres@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Just got home and caught up with the Kevin Lee fight. Just brutal. I wonder how long he was out and still getting strangled.

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

He got flashed then strangled, tough way to go.

[-] dres@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Clowned him with a full nelson. For shame.

[-] Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

great finish

[-] dres@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Morales passing the gatekeeper test. Not setting any panties on fire with that decision though.

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

35-8-2-2 record, whole lotta fights for a 29 year old in his UFC debut. 33 finishes.

I will be here at some point. Enjoy the upcoming fights.

Think Bonfim wanted out, that hurts bad but didn't look under the chin

[-] dres@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Dawson and Damir achieving the most homo-erotic position of the night

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

idk, the finger up the butt earlier was... up there.

I'm sure Sean is going to say something very intelligent in this postfight.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

His media day interview was painful and not in the fun Tito way.

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

A wild Joanna appears!

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Looks like there's problems posting threads right now on kbin with the lemmy upgrade.

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

The fuck was that celebration from Brito?

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Just got back, lets dooo this

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Sanko's been great on the mic tonight, just oozes charisma and excitement without trying.

[-] dres@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It's risky putting her with Bisping. The first time I saw them together, there were some cringe moments. I jumped on late so I haven't heard anything suspect from those two yet. I like Sanko.

[-] Dent7777@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

The Romanov fight was solid, he showed some improvement. In round two, his jab was on point. Throughout the fight, his leg kicks were landing effectively. He showed what we knew he had, the big takedowns and heavy top game.

My two wishes for him are to lose weight and stop throwing himself out of position with big left overhands. He's still a good prospect in the HW division for me.

Somewhere, Rin Nakai is smiling.

[-] percentSValue@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks everyone for making the first 'post-rif, now kbin mma era' a thing

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Well this is the first post RIF, BUT this isn't the first. We had an event during the blackout that had the most comments on kbin ever. Like, ALL of kbin.

There were problems all event long this evening between kbin and lemmy and that sorta separated the crowd out, but we'll be back next event! Thanks for stopping by!

Minty Bets sounds like the name of a black preacher who runs back alley dice games.

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

This is Damir time. You know this brother.

[-] dres@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Dawson flying like a spider monkey

[-] Dent7777@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I got my eye on Grant Dawson, Michael Morales, Benoit Saint-Denis, Rinat Fakhretdinov, Nursulton Ruziboev, Elvis Brenner, and Alexander Romanov. All fun fighters with upside in their divisions.

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Strickland sorta fights like a Diaz just a ton of punches at 50% and then he stings you with a 90%er out of nowhere

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

He looked really relaxed in there. He’s kinda flat footed though.

[-] Dent7777@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Bruh replacing the bleep out with the mute out really ruined television.

[-] Dent7777@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Wow, what a second round. Abus got totally outclassed and melted.

[-] BasicallyClean@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Hopefully kbin and lemmy will get their issues sorted out in time for the next event to get that thread rolling again like previously. Thanks for coming by everyone.

If you have time, please check us out during the week and comment in the threads. Lets grow this place!!!!!

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks for organizing the thread and keeping it lively! Looking forward to the next one.
