Strong first round for Rakic.

Edit: Didn’t matter

[-] ya_dong@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I feel like I might need to be on the receiving end of some ground and pound. Everytime I see the ref stop it im like bro he was fine let the fight go on. Based on the moicano and Lopez fights

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

Thanks to everyone who participated tonight. Special thanks to @ya_dong for picking up my slack.

[-] ya_dong@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

In future I want to get the thread up a day earlier so we can get predictions in and see how everyone's picks play out.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 1 points 6 months ago

That’s a good idea. Let’s give it a shot.

[-] ya_dong@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

Fuck yeah, Jiri had me worried. He is a goddam tank.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

Hands down and legs open for kicks. I thought he was on his way to a loss too. Nice turn around and finish by Jiri!

[-] EmptyRadar@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

Diego Lopez is the real deal

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

He’s so exciting and dynamic. I think we’ll see him fighting for a title before long.

[-] Fernando-678@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

He's my new Erick Silva.

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 3 points 6 months ago

Holy fuck no way. Max with the ko 100% just earned himself 300k

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I thought Max was in trouble when he took this fight, but I was wrong. What a savage!

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 6 months ago

Same before the fight I just said "I'm rooting for max to survive I don't want to see his career ended". I was so wrong max stock through the roof

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

Now I wanna see him do whatever the hell he wants. Aside from the lack of low kick defense, he looks like he could give anyone at lightweight and featherweight a tough fight.

[-] EmptyRadar@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

Fuck yeah, I am so glad the BMF didn't get decided by the judges

[-] EmptyRadar@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

Justin and Max deserve the 300k for fight of the night, unless there is something crazy left to come

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

Everyone lower in the card simultaneously shed a tear. Max is a lock for at least $300k.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

Ilia looked shook after the finish. Probably just in shock like the rest of us.

[-] EmptyRadar@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

He looked genuinely nervous to have been called out by Max

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

Can’t blame him after that performance. Max was fighting a great fight up to and including the finish.

[-] EmptyRadar@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

Damn, gotta put some respect on Alex's name if you haven't already

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Why make a BMF belt when Anik can’t even say “motherfucker” on air?

Max looks great. Hopefully he starts checking those low kicks.

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 6 months ago

Max is looking so fast and so sharp. Justin can't get his hands on him. If this was anyone in Max's division they would be out cold.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

Alex made it look easy. What a card! UFC 300 lived up to the hype and then some.

[-] ya_dong@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

A bit late but I didnt see one up. Pretty good early prelims so far.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

Thanks for putting this up! I was slackin. 300 is off to a strong start.

[-] Fernando-678@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

Kayla arms are like SpongeBob's when he inflates them.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

Harrison vs. Holm went about as expected. Pennington is probably nervous after seeing that performance.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

I just realized the title of this thread says UFC 290. Good enough for government work!

[-] ya_dong@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

yeah I just noticed as well. I guess you now where where I copy pasted the title from

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

Hey there’s activity here, so it works! Also Aljo vs Kattar sucked.

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 6 months ago

AYY kbin federation issues seem to be resolved and im getting these posts quick as fuck. Sick card so far. Shine bright Jiri you Autistic Samurai.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Game on! I wouldn’t be mad about a Brundage upset.

Edit: Nope. Brundage made it beyond the first round at least.

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 6 months ago

Lmao salty man Jamal hill knocked thr fuck out round 1. You fucking idiot you deserved that for trying to strike with a two division k1 champion who has slept every ufc fighter.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

Good decision. I thought Tsarukyan was out for a second with that d’acre attempt, but he gutted it out.

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 1 points 6 months ago

I thought he was out at the end because he sort of flopped at one point but turns out he was chilling waiting for the bell.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

That weird thumbs up chest tattoo on Hill is something special. It’s right up there with Brock’s feather knife and Alan Belcher’s mutant Johnny Cash.

[-] EmptyRadar@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

It's like the early Facebook like icon

[-] ya_dong@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

50 fucking comments bro what a sick card. im buzzing off that Holloway finish. My friend who has no idea about MMA just texted me that he bet $10 on holloway and won $85. Zhang stomped her fight and I really dont see anyone beating her anytime soon that craig jones training paying dividends.

The main event knockout from Alex was fucked. He slept him round one with no prior damange, no wind up. This guy is actually playing with cheatcodes. He has the magic touch if he touches your chin its over. Cant wait to see Jamal hill bitch and moan about that stoppage on his yt channel

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 1 points 6 months ago

Holloway calling for 600k buddy it was hard enough to pry 300k from Dana you ain't getting 600.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

Maybe UFC brass will go the One FC route and give all the finishers a bonus in addition to fight of the night. Doubt it though.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 1 points 6 months ago

Oh my god Max is a fucking beast. Please stay at 155.

[-] BigDickMystic@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

Seriously. This version of Max looks like a worldbeater

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 1 points 6 months ago

Herzog is one of the good ones. However, I don’t understand how he didn’t call the fight at the end of the first round.

[-] EmptyRadar@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

Yeah Yan was 100% out, IMO. She was floppy and literally convulsing as she was stood up.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

She got smacked on the side of the head for 30+ seconds in round two also. Hope Weili can pull it out.

[-] ugmug@kbin.social 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

These last two fights are bangers, but I feel like I’ve already seen the main event after the max and Justin fight.

Edit: clarification
