Tom is the real champ now. Jon will come back in a year and fight Stipe, win, and then both will retire. Tom will be the defacto champ or he'll fight Cyril Gane to cement it.

Alex’s leg kicks are crazy. Jiri is already stumbling.
EmptyRadar@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
DC was right, the back of his leg is fucked
toastus@feddit.de · 5 pts · 2y
I hate that stoppage a title fight.
westingham@kbin.social · 4 pts · 2y
Jiri is so classy.
ugmug@kbin.social · 4 pts · 2y
Thanks for participating everyone. Hope to see you all again at the next event.
westingham@kbin.social · 4 pts · 2y
Don't like that stoppage.
EmptyRadar@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
Yeah it's hard to say, he did eat a lot of elbows. Goddard probably assumed it was a wrap.
BigDickMystic@kbin.social · 4 pts · 2y
Tom Aspinall vs Gane would be an absolute banger.
ugmug@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
I think Aspinall would dominate Gane on the ground. I’d still watch it though.
BigDickMystic@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Oh, absolutely. But Gane's speed and evasiveness would make the standup much, much more interesting. Gane's still gonna get his shit mixed, though..
ugmug@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
Yeah. I just can’t imagine Gane surviving much longer than he did vs Jones with another well rounded and dynamic opponent. I also can’t think of many other fighters not named Jon Jones that could give Aspinall a really tough fight. Pavlovich seemed like the one with his fuck you power.
ugmug@kbin.social · 4 pts · 2y
I’m indifferent about the stoppage. He was hurt but, it appeared that Jiri had some more fight in him. On the other hand, Jiri’s body language after the elbows likely didn’t look good from a ref perspective.
BigDickMystic@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
Yeah, same. But knowing about his insane chin, Goddard should have let him take a few more..
Anyways, Pereira wins either way
toastus@feddit.de · 2 pts · 2y
Yeah I am quite certain Pereira gets the finish here anyway, I just would have liked to give Jiri the chance to try to hang on, because he has NO quit in him whatsoever.
EmptyRadar@kbin.social · 4 pts · 2y
HOLY FUCK BOYS
ugmug@kbin.social · 4 pts · 2y
Damn Jiri is intense.
ugmug@kbin.social · 4 pts · 2y
That Jiri Reyes knockout is just filthy.
westingham@kbin.social · 4 pts · 2y
BANG!! Wooooo!! What a performance.
westingham@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
Lopes closed that one out definitively, damn.
toastus@feddit.de · 3 pts · 2y
Damn sometimes I feel for Dom Reyes, getting robbed against Jones and then those bad KOs.
EmptyRadar@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
Yeah I remember when I watched Reyes VS Jones I was FLOORED that they gave it to Jones. The fix is in, that was my first thought.
ugmug@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Reyes had a ton of potential. He’s got a fight coming up. Maybe Dom will turn things around. If he gets flatlined again I hope he hangs it up.
ugmug@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
Lopes has some serious contender potential. His style is so exciting and he’s got some crispy technique.
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
That's true. Did he have a full camp this time?
He's very talented.
ugmug@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
I think so. He looked great.
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
Wow
westingham@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
HOLY SHIT
DirtyDan@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
I think he had it wrapped up but I think the stoppage was a lil snappy
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
Wohoo go Gordon
ugmug@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
I’ve been rooting for him since the Paddy decision. Nice win.
ameisenigel@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
I think this applies to absolutely everyone haha
ugmug@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
Wow that was fast. I thought Aspinall was a dead man walking after he ate those first two shots.
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
Me too, I thought "look at me, eating my words again".
BrucePotality@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 2y
That was an insane first fight, can’t wait to see a rematch if they have one
toastus@feddit.de · 3 pts · 2y
Jones will never fight either of those dudes.
EmptyRadar@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
I made it for the co and main...phew!
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Dern Forrest Griffined out :(
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Holy shit
toastus@feddit.de · 2 pts · 2y
Has Saint-Denis a tiny Stipe in his corner?
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Pavlovich is going to be outclassed. Aspinall's distance management will be too much.
ugmug@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
I think this is the most likely outcome, but Pavlovich just needs to connect once.
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
That's true hahahah
ugmug@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
I got Alex in this one, but Jiri is a dog. Coin flip fight.
toastus@feddit.de · 3 pts · 2y
Yeah, I am stoked for this one.
Alex should have the cleaner striking, but Jiri is just wild and probably a bit bigger at 205.
ugmug@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Yeah. This is solid matchmaking. Not sure Alex has earned it, but I like this matchup.
BigDickMystic@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
Idk man, he managed to avoid getting wrestlefucked by Jan. To me that's a good enough litmus test..
ugmug@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
That’s true. Not a ton of contenders at LHW either.
BigDickMystic@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
Confused Dagestani noises
ugmug@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Fights start in a half an hour. Let’s go!
toastus@feddit.de · 2 pts · 2y
Andrade is crypronite for Dern, too strong to get taken down and just way better on the feet.
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Can't watch this, gonna check the result later.
EmptyRadar@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Stipe lookin like a Bond villain
westingham@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
Bond villain mixed with Steve Jobs.
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Wow, he looked a little disoriented already.
westingham@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y
Thankfully that's over. Nothing against Dern but that second round was hard to watch. Good stoppage from the ref.
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
Wow, what a ko. Very memeable screm too.
ugmug@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
That was quite a scream. Nice start to the card!
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
Only two fights above lightweight in the whole card...
ugmug@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
I’m really looking forward to seeing Diego Lopes fight tonight.
westingham@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
Anybody else having issues with the Dubz links not working? Video won't play.
ugmug@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
No issues here. Do you have any video plugins running? I had to disable Baking Soda for the dubz domain to get them to play earlier.
westingham@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
No, nothing like that. I'll keep poking at it.
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
O wow, didn't even see what happened. Did his arm break??
Fernando-678@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y
Hey guys.
