Gotta be the dirtiest most foul ridden PPV I can remember, no I am not surprised.

I sensed we would all get that second blue mark today. Are we setting a record for the third stripe in next 2 that are left?

I'm guessing that doctor knows more about what constitutes if a fighter is unfit to continue than 99.9999% of us here so lets wait till we have more information before calling for his head.

@RustyTennakoon 
most of you clowns have never been hit in the head before. Walker had a puzzling look on his face. Though his english is not he best. He literally was blank staring.

You guys who are blaming the doctor have no idea what you are talking about. The doctor was right to call it off. Remember what happened to Burgos in the Barbosa fight? He has never been the same since.

Referees have done a bad job of not punishing fouls as well which lets people keep trying their luck

One of the best cards of the year is getting ruining by some Guy who calls himself a doctor, fire his ass. Get him out of the UFC and MMA in general

english isnt his first language. the arena is loud and he did take a knee. and you ask Walker a geography question? like the UAE doesnt roll off the tongue and does he even know thats the country name. most people just refer to it as Abu Dhabi/Dubai etc

Came into the ring like Stone Cold Steve Austin and was about to right hook Walker to make him really concussed.

It's a shame, I only needed Ankalaev by Dec to get through in a 3 piece parlay. Not sure how it would have ended if not this,but it does ruin everything today....
