The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- Cannonier, Imavov, Reyes, Rosas on NOW

WATERY DUNE HAIR?!!!?
Great to see my mans Max back, but hey refs and coaches when are we going to be proactive in combat sports???? Enough of this heart narrative, it’s better to live to fight another day. Coaches need to be throwing those towels more often and refs gotta be looking out for fighters too. That fight should’ve been stopped at the 4th. It was hard to watch a pummeling that was unnecessarily prolonged.

The culture of MMA won't change until someone dies like in Boxing

Until then it's the honorable thing to do to go out on your shield

Every fighter should read that piece on Spencer Fisher

The cost of being ‘The King’

Seven years ago, doctors told former UFC lightweight Spencer Fisher he could no longer fight. That wasn’t the end of his time with his promoter. But when the company was sold, he was among those to be cut loose. Now, he’s just trying to get by.

Kattar sacrificed something of himself in there. I hope it isn't career or life altering

He grew up like 10 minutes from Micky Ward. Those dudes in that area are just different.

I 100% knew Kattar was built like this. But to witness it play out in real life was just something you can't prepare yourself for

Dana says "you have to" consider giving Max a third shot at Volk

Good on you Dana

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Dana says Khabib will corner someone on Wednesday and then leave the island and also that Khabib will never hold up the division

 

[keko jones]

Dang, i missed this joint.

See New Mansa got KO'd. LoL

Dana says "you have to" consider giving Max a third shot at Volk

Good on you Dana

He means Over Ortega or next in line after that fight

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

He means Over Ortega or next in line after that fight

He meant if Volk beats TCity then Max deserves the next shot

 

[danger style]

He meant if Volk beats TCity then Max deserves the next shot

Definitely. I mean dude just put on the greatest performance in FW history pretty much and no one really waiting in line anyway.

Max should move up to 155 win or lose the third Volk fight though

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Dana says he won't consider Max v Khabib and he isn't convinced Max can be a true 155'er due to his fight vs Dustin

Max cracked Dustin so many times in that fight

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Dana claiming there's no interest on either side of Khabib nor GSP to fight each other

Eh, I won't stop believing until it doesn't happen for 2 years

Dana claiming there's no interest on either side of Khabib nor GSP to fight each other

Dana is a lying sack of ****.

Both of them want to fight each other, Dana just doesn't want it because he's obsessed with Conor/Khabib 2.

Who the hell is he trying to fool?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

This man was so mad they didn't interview Buckley. Another first for today's card

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Holy ****, look at how much bigger he looks than Felder

Dana says Max isn't big enough to fight at 55. Idk about that

MAX SHOWING WHO THE REAL CHAMP IS TONIGHT

 

[atransta]

Max made me some cash today

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Lot of sentiment that the fight should have been stopped

 

[mr z]

Kattar ate 447 strikes? What sucks is UFC is gonna offer him a fight in 3 months and if he doesn’t take it his contract is extended. They need a fighters union so bad.

 

[degenerate423]

I almost want someone to pull out next weekend

Yeah, Poirier. I want to see Max/Conor 2 .

 

[thehealthinspector]

Yeah, Poirier. I want to see Max/Conor 2 .

dustin slipped into a good punch, max was dominated

how does this even make sense

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

If Max won a fight against a 55 contender then I’d love to see him fight conor. Give me a 55 win first though

 

[degenerate423]

dustin slipped into a good punch, max was dominated

how does this even make sense

Because the scenario is either Dustin or Conor dropping out of the fight and Max stepping in... Is it that hard to make sense of?

 

[Beans]

Holy ****, look at how much bigger he looks than Felder

Dana says Max isn't big enough to fight at 55. Idk about that

Tbf the one fight we saw him at 155 he did look too small. His power wasn’t nearly as effective. I would like to see him build his body up and slowly move up to 155 but only after he’s won his belt back

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Definitely. Max needs time to properly make that transition but at the same time Dustin was getting battered. Dustin was just the bigger more powerful guy so he outlasted him
