[K.I.]

I am not sure why it isnt actually, i would have thought a fight like this gets 5 rounds but maybe he 3 will make it more exciting.

Didn't even need 3

Didn't even need 3

Dustin at one point i thought he was gonna get knocked out but he weathered the storm and great second half of the first and 3rd.


Great event, Izzy actually impressed me but i always thought that if he gets some shots thrown at him while he is on the fence it was gonna be over but Pereira can only get better from here, impressive.

I was supporting Poatan for that fight so I'm glad he won but I reckon Adesanya wins that fight 9 times out of 10. Esparza is a bum.

 

[forzainter257]

I became his fan yesterday, after reading an article about him. What a character he has. Pataxó power

 

[Fitzy]

I thought Izzy gassed Pereira in that 3rd round on the ground and it was going to be an easy points win. Pereira needs to credit his corner for reminding him constantly during the break that it was the final round and to go for gold.

Thing is I think Whittaker beats Pereira if they fight and as El Uno said, if they run that fight back, Izzy wins. I reckon this is a one-off win but it was the shake-up that the division needed.

Pereira is 3-0 over Adesanya

Pereira is 3-0 over Adesanya

I haven't seen their previous kickboxing fights, but apparently Izzy should've won their first match on points, and was winning their second before the KO. At least that was the talk.

I just find it funny that he was easily winning this one as well before he got KO'd.

very sad news

Amazing fight card this time tomorrow! Even the early prelims are fire!

Might even see a rare appearance from Darren Till if he doesn't pull out xD

 

[K.I.]

Till that round was horrific, dude took like 60 shots in the first round. Comes back in the 2nd but he has taken a lot of damage, absurd.

Edit: unfortunately he torn his ACL, it might have been the first round that's why he was having trouble getting up maybe

 

[Fitzy]

No way did Paddy win that

 

[Sawyer]

No way did Paddy win that

I think he may have won, however I am not convinced either. It wouldn't surprise if he didn't win but I don't think it was robbery.

Till will have to fight unranked on return, surprised he trained in Thailand and not with cumshot.

Ankalaev is such a sore loser, he got the legs kicked off him then laid on Jan, I had it as a draw/Ankalaev but I am glad he didn't win, the post presser he really embarassed himself.

Now the title will be Glover v Jamahal Hill (yea Hill.. I said it..) that's how much that fight pissed of Dana..

Fedor is officially retired. His prime fights will always be remembered

 

[Sawyer]

Bader made him look like he should have retired a while back.

True legend of the sport, absolute legend. Nothing but love and respect for Fedor.

 

[K.I.]

Impressive from Volk, should have been a draw to be honest, he deserves a rematch for sure.

 

[Harpsabu]

I was thinking draw but Islam probably did just enough.

That said, fuck Islam is boring. Wtf was the 4th round. Should have been stood up, Islam was just resting. Shame, wanted volk to win.

 

[Pimpin]

Lmao, if you gusy think that was a "volk" win..

four take downs, take out leg kicks (which never really get scored), and they had same significant strikes.. and there are 3 rounds which Islam outlanded Volk..

in what way or universe was this a close fight? re-watch the fight.

again volk did amazing, but we are all caught up because we thought he would get ran through

I thought the 5th round might have been enough for a draw. A fight going 3-2 is quite close and volk did way more damage to Islam.
As I said though Islam did enough to get the win but far from convincing.

Dan hooker has accused Islam of getting a IV drip after weigh in lol so some more drama at least to look out for
