well thats fucked

 

[TrainedRage]

WHAT????

 

[Yoboman]

I thought Max controlled the whole fight but he let his foot off the pedal in round 4

 

[MaestroMike]

 

[Zato]

Was easily 3-2

 

[Night.Ninja]

So the judges are saying Alex won 3,4 and 5

 

[Krappadizzle]

Max got robbed I think. O well, should never leave it to the judges.

 

[JimiNutz]

Hmmm it was close and competitive but I think Max won. Stats show that he did outstrike Volk in 3 rounds and also dropped him early.
Volk did get some takedowns but Max popped straight up so I don't think they should count for much.

 

[NYR]

Max got robbed but I guess you could argue he didn't do enough to win the title because it went to the judges.

 

[pauljeremiah]

Well done ESPN

 

[Unknown Quantity]

Great technical fight. I thought Max had it.

Looking at those winning streaks. Usman on 11 & Leon Edwards on 8. Why is Masvidal there.

 

[TrainedRage]

NEVER leave it to the judges. Ever.

So far just Rose for me. Hope Masvidal gets this.

Max won the fight in a general (Pride scoring) sense: the two knockdowns were the most significant part of the fight. From a UFC scoring perspective, it was very close with round 3 the most ambiguous, but I’d would’ve just given it to Max.

 

[Yoboman]

NEVER leave it to the judges. Ever.

If I ever had a criticism of Max, he is too much of a point fighter. He doesn't have a killer instinct to want to leave his opponent unconscious

He had every opportunity to win that

 

[Yoboman]

Let's Gooooooooo Masvidal

Win and set up the biggest PPV ever against Conor

 

[Night.Ninja]

I think masvidal can only win by KO which is a possibility. But Usman is durable, I can see him just working masvidal

 

[Yoboman]

How can you not get hyped by a guy using the Scarface theme

 

[Carton]

Let's Gooooooooo Masvidal

Win and set up the biggest PPV ever against Conor

Absolutely. Conor says nothing was interesting for him, but a 3rd title against a popular fighter like Masdival will surely be a complex enough whisky for his palate.

that was pretty cool

 

[bronk]

 

[NYR]

Let's Gooooooooo Masvidal

Win and set up the biggest PPV ever against Conor

Uncle Dana playing 4D chess if Masvidal wins here, instant top superstar.

 

[TrainedRage]

Please win Masvidal!
You got this.
So Hyped!

 

[Cunth]

lol Volko said he was gonna have a definitive win this time

 

[Yoboman]

Absolutely. Conor says nothing was interesting for him, but a 3rd title against a popular fighter like Masdival will surely be a complex enough whisky for his palate.

Dont listen to anything Conor says

But this would be a hell of a hype build up even if Conor isn't a realistic chance

 

[NYR]

lol wtf was that

 

[NYR]

Usman's back is fucking ripped wow

 

[Unknown Quantity]

27 hits from Masvidal? Am I watching a different fight...?

 

[Yoboman]

Got Masvidal round 1

This fight isn't going the distance. I think Masvidal will gas and Usman is targeting body

 

[TrainedRage]

These judges cant be trusted.

 

[TrainedRage]

Im just gonna use my head.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

I think one of these guys is going down this round (round 3). They are both getting half gassed.

 

[Carton]

Usman is a Nightmare for podiatrists

 

[TrainedRage]

I stomp feet and use head.

 

[NYR]

Stomping the feet looks like it hurts, not gonna lie

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Punch wasn't that low.

 

[Yoboman]

Usman is so boring

 

[NYR]

These takedowns are a disaster for Jorge, game over

 

[pauljeremiah]

Usman is so boring

like Khabib, boring but effective

 

[Yoboman]

Masvidal is spent. He wanted nothing of Usman after the last clinch break

 

[Zato]

Yawn, Usman is a shit champion.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Only started watching the main card. Worst fight by far.

 

[Zato]

Only started watching the main card. Worst fight by far.

All the rest of the main card were really good, fighters like Usman suck the joy out of this.

 

[Yoboman]

like Khabib, boring but effective

Yeah. Khabib is a lot more fun to watch though

 

[Unknown Quantity]

Masvidal needs a stoppage. I got it 4-0

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Usman reminds me of many Cormier fights.

Wins, but does that boring fence pinning thing.

 

[NYR]

Jorge losing $$$$ by the second. Dude is finished and better be hoping Nate wants to run it back.

 

[Yoboman]

What a shame this was the main event

 

[Yoboman]

Jorge losing $$$$ by the second. Dude is finished and better be hoping Nate wants to run it back.

Would have been better losing quickly and saying he didn't have a proper camp

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Jorge losing $$$$ by the second. Dude is finished and better be hoping Nate wants to run it back.

Mas was basically done by the end of round 2.
