I’m at a party with people who know nothing about mma and think Nunes just got caught lol… the agony of trying to explain she doesn’t always look like that.

Didn't look like the normal Nunes.. and then to smile and be happy right after being choked ? Weird to me. Vegas definitely made some money tonight on that fixed ********. But , enjoy it Pena. If Amanda doesn't get the immediate rematch , Shevchenko will destroy her. Maybe Harrison signs and gets a title shot right away.

Man, I'll never be able to bridge the culture gap of understanding this music. It just seems like the goofiest most operatic ****. But then I see young, cool people emotionally vibing out to it.

Anybody who thinks that was a legit win and a real tap has to be fried. Amanda could of finished that Rd 1. Let her win , comeback in Rd 2 , gets choked out , gets up immediately smiling? Suspect. Wonder how much Dana paid her to throw it.

I’m actually mad at that Nunes fight.. this makes the sport look so bad. Go watch her other fights and tell me something looked off. Peña almost looked shocked afterwards like it wasn’t real.

Why are people calling rigged? I know it was absurd but why would UFC do something that's illegal for whatever minor gain they might get from putting the belt on frigging Pena?

I'm salty, everybody is. But not salty enough to just say it was rigged for the **** of it. It all makes sense. Weight class was dying out. Nunes was mopping everyone. Why not throw it to get a rematch and get some excitement back for that class. Also , I bet the odds won't be like they were in the rematch , I bet Amanda comes back at maybe a -200. If she's lucky. Then Vegas bets millions in her and goes to bed happy.

I know I picked Dustin B/C I'm a fan, but I honestly, sadly, think Olivera will take this...

I don't know if I've ever bought the idea that there's SO MUCH more money in the rematch that it's worth fixing the fight. I think having Nunes be a dominant GOAT is more valuable than having Pena win one fight, then presumably lose the rematch?

Conspiracy theorists... its time to put on your tin foil cap now

Why did Pena say in her corner to her coach ..."She is stopping me.  She is stopping me  "

I am like what >?  Amanda Nunes is supposed to stop you ... like in the first round.  KO !!

Seems rigged... fixed ...

Charles by sub or Dustin by TKO. NO idea.
