UFC wagering: no longer stuck with the old thread title. The window to change it is here! (5 Viewers)

Last start, but I've got up to live now. Thoughts so far:

When did Miocic become "Miachitch" instead of "Miochitch"?

Tibau's chin is probably gone. People just can't get hit for years and years and still be able to take hard shots.

It has been a while since I've seen someone with as bad of takedown defense as Bessette. It was the reason he lost.

On the other hand, Arce's was terrific. It was the reason he won. Arce looks like a great prospect. I have no idea where a judge found a round for Ige.

Man, Pantoja getting to Ortiz's back was impressive. Nice reversal from Ortiz. Had to be an exhausting first round for both, but Ortiz didn't look like he was tired from it at all. I had it 29-28, Ortiz. Was a bit concerned the back control he gave up would cause him to lose it.

Oh, dat uppercut. Not sure why there was a standup, but Alhassan looks like he could KO middleweights.

I'm shocked Dominick Cruz like Bochniak's movement. It was solid, though. I'm also shocked Davis trains with Jason Knight. They both act like ##### without really accomplishing anything in the UFC. When they went to Davis' corner, it seemed like all three of those guys were yelling different things. That's terrible.

I really like Rob Font, but this fight was disappointing. Almeida looked fantastic, but he simply can't take a big shot anymore. For that to be the case at a young age, it seems like Almeida won't be long for this sport. Sad.

While there are brief exchanges, I don't remember an exciting Gian Villante fight. The Barroso judge might have fallen asleep.

I really like the Rogan/Cruz combo. While they both are comfortable speaking on any aspect of fighting, Cruz is more knowledgeable on the standup, while Rogan is more formidable when discussing groundwork.

Kattar/Burgos exceeded my expectations. Of course, I had zero expectations. Excellent first round. Kattar's jab, yo! Very surprising to see Kattar come back in the third. Burgos looked like he was taking control in the second.

 
weird how much cheering DC gets, i don't know where else DC gets cheered like that

and "undisputed LHW champion of the world"  :lmao: :lmao:   keep trying UFC

 
really weird between rounds there. they only showed good points for DC, and none of the peppering that Oez had for beginning of the round

 
Cormier/Oezdemir drive-by post

Round 1

I'll be surprised if Oezdemir can keep this pace.

Odd to see the crowd so pro-Cormier.

Cormier 10-9

Round 2

Cormier outclassed Oezdemir. Zero hip movement on the ground from Oezdemir. Pretty terrible. Dude had a puncher's chance.

 
I know Cormier is an amazing wrestler, but there are things Oezdemir should have been trying from bottom. He did none of them. It's unreal someone can challenge for the LHW belt without a ground game.

 
DC better say his prayers that Jones doesn't come back. And lol, "rival". you got to win or be a challenge to be a rival

 
it's pretty funny while waiting for Stipe fight turning on the new Spike and seeing their main event of Chael-Rampage. Rampage looks slow as molasses

 
Yeah the LHW is wiped out. Jones should’ve been having super fights with Whittaker and the winner of this fight. 

 
there is a lot of d-bag looking dudes near the cage yelling instructions to the fighters (not Khabib and his buds). i would think that would have to drive you nuts as a fighter

 
Miocic/Ngannou thoughts

Stoked!!!!!!!!!!!!

Miocic sounds like Dan Henderson.

He also needs a nickname.

Round 1

Ngannou has nothing on the ground. Both of these guys are spent.

Miocic 10-9

Round 2

I hope Ngannou was resting. If he doesn't recover, he's absolutely done.

Miocic 10-8

 
no comparison in the quality of the main events between UFC and Bellator tonight, but nobody can cut a promo like Chael P. Sonnen

 
Round 3

Hopefully, Ngannou learns from this and really works on his defensive grappling.

Miocic 10-9

 
Herb needs to stop it. Guy has absolutely nothing left. 

If he can't be stopped here you wonder if he can be.
