This is amazing to watch. I love watching world-class strikers struggle with fundamentals that 12 year olds know.

What a win by Curtis. Overeem is another guy that may want to consider retiring. Feels like all his losses are nasty ko's. And even in the Werdum fight he got rocked.

@imperator

If Blaydes doesn't get the winner of Stipe/DC, I will be disappointed. This guy has become a serious contender that can destroy you standing up or on the ground.

Anyone else think that was a horrible stoppage. Those next 2 elbows could cause permanent damage

I love it.

This was a very impressive performance by Curtis. He dominated an opponent who was meant to offer a serious stylistic difficulty.

no title-shot. Stipe vs DC still has to happen and then whoever wins will take time off. Feed Blaydes the winner of JDS vs Ivanov or Volkov.

@Greg I was thinking the same thing. That and how godawful it would be to have a dude like that on top of you. I'm pretty sure his head weighs about as much as 1/3 of my body weight.

If it were me under there, they'd probably just hose me off the floor of the octagon afterwards.

I wrestled HW's in middle & high-school. You get tough real quick. Size is everything. Everything. No amount of skill makes up for being massive. David got squashed like a bug. Don't let people fool ya.

This is an accurate representation of what would happen to your head:

Home just in time for the main card!

Took a chance on Punk. Probably dumb, but Jackson doesn't seem to care if he wins or loses, while Punk wants it bad.
