Hey guys, I'm gonna be a broken record tonight...

In between fights when you get a chance, go upvote and boost the fight clips as our bot brings them over. All helps to get seen in the fediverse and get more people over here. Thanks.

I'm starting to think you're making these fights last so little somehow.

This is now the second most commented thread ever on kbin. /m/mma also has the third thread.

BingGoose,

Du Plessis literally just flailed his way to a title shot, fuck sake

YaDong,

Cutting Izzy a bit of slack cuz he’s shitfaced, but that was cringey

Pluto_Is_A_Planet,

And we still have two title fights.

busydoinnothin,

Izzy is so embarrassing.

percentSValue,

That was difficult to watch

I don't know why he insists on being so cringey

He used the n word repeatedly.

BigDickMystic,

Knowing full well that DDP becomes insta-racist if he so much as thinks about replying in kind..

BingGoose,

Fuck it, Dricus is gonna be middleweight champ isn't he

BasicallyClean,

He's gotta put Izzy on his ass to beat Izzy. Pereira is better than him in every way on the feet and has had more than enough trouble with Izzy.

Well, I thought Robert’s striking was much better than DDP as well - and it even looked better! But we all just saw what happened… Somehow, he just keeps pulling it off.

Dricus is awkward AF though. It looked like the soles of his feet were greased the way he was slipping around.

I’ll cry myself to sleep tonight.

BigDickMystic,

Hold on brother, I'm crying

Pluto_Is_A_Planet,

I'm just here for all the ad reads. The fights get in the way of that.

BigDickMystic,

Right? Who wants to watch 2 dudes bang it out when I could be learning about the fastest growing drink in history!?

REAPER TIME

BingGoose,

Very natty arm veins on Du Plessis

I hope the lesbian rockstar look brings Hooker to the promised land. Inshallah

If Robert hadn’t been KOed, this would have been one of my favourite cards ever. Alas, I’ll go to sleep crying.

Goodnight to all of you.

Time heals my friend. I just hope he can get another chance at the title in the future.
