I dunno what it is before everyone one of his fights I bail on betting against him. He has a clear whole in his ground game. I think it’s because I want him to win too much

The big tell to me was Gus bragging about how he broke Werdum's nose in a sparring session a long time ago... it's almost like he was overlooking him and already talking about title shots, that's no bueno.. Werdum also looked really happy at the weigh ins so that's why I went with him. That was fast though!

Idk what happened to Alex, maybe his ground game was always like this but it feels like something changed

Nothing changed, you simply don't want to go to the ground with Werdum, simple as that.

Yeah but even Anthony Smith got the better of him when he was taken down... not to mention the Jon Jones rematch as well. I remember Chael speculating that he might have had an injury of some sort

I was honestly expecting the same flat and deflated version of Werdum we saw LAST TIME out. And I wanted to see him get thrashed. dammit.

Unless you're Oleynik... the credit is def to Werdum in this one. He forced the fight to where he wanted and took full advantage.

This was Werdum last fight in the UFC.  Sounds like he’s going to explore options.

I feel bad for Gus, probably going consider retirement. .. plus why would you commit to tattooing your arm every time you lose

He could probably make some bank rematching Fedor and making a run at Bader In Bellator
