Really is amazing to see how fast Usman improves even as the champion. Hes def #1 P4P atm and I dont think anyone beats him for a while
Keep having to refer back to this thread

@Thewelshguy I think crowd makes great fights greater and decent fights terrible

Sad to say cause I think it’s Smith’s worst matchup, but it seems like Lionheart vs Ankalaev is the only reasonable fight to make rn since Glover and Rakic both deserve shots.

I really hope Nick does make a comeback but schmo is smoking crack if he thinks Khamzat is a good fight to make for him. Put him against masvidal or lawler rematch, would make sense for him to fight a vet who's not red hot rn

Want to know WHY THERE HARDLY ANY FOULS ?

The fighters were motivated by the crowds to have a finish on each fight... 
@TheWelshguy1998

The longer fight goes - exhaustion sets in and fighters make more mistakes. Kicks to the groin and eye gouges, etc.... Knee to the noggin ( A Sterling vs Petr Yan ) 

--------------------
Tonight was pretty spectacular in the history of the UFC  !! Its was electrifying  !!!

^ This comment should unlock a new badge really. It is a literal undecidable figure of ******ation that caused me to waste 15 minutes of my life trying to decipher it into some semblance of a cogent statement of either fact or opinion that might make some sense in some dimension. I failed utterly.

One of the most perfectly executed non-intentional trolls I have ever seen.

Heart sunk when crutes leg was folding, considering he was was smashing smiths leg with hefty leg kicks moments before, he also did so well to complete 2 takedowns on a 100% dead leg, I had 100 British pounds on that usman crute parlay🤦🏻‍♂️
