[MMC]

They set Canadian MMA back 10 years with this one

That would be great, Canadian mma was much better 10 years ago

 

[Nakatomi]

Does anyone else have a problem with the pacing of these UFC events?

We're now 95 minutes into the PPV, and there have been just 2 fights for a total of 30 minutes of action

Yes, if it weren't for a few friends who would spoil the big cards for me, I'd 100% move to watching the cards on Sunday morning with a cup of joe.

Not taking a point is insane with that context then

 

[Bunk Moreland]

I never understand bringing your kids to a fight... I get it you win its pretty awesome but you lose? Those kids gonna be pretty upset lol.

Not to mention its midnight why are those babies there?!

 

[Deadpool8812]

Buffer's cue cards are wild

 

[Nakatomi]

It is a small thing, but I dislike when the non-Brazilian fighter is in green. It just feels weird, haha.

Brazilian fighters should wear yellow to me. Idk why maybe dating back to Anderson?

Traumatizing your kids >>>

Yellow as primary and green as backup! But yes, your reasoning makes a lot of sense. I am almost certain it is Oliveira's most common color too.

 

[Taytro]

Rocky initiating grappling here is such a mistake. Her coaches are trying to urge her to strike. Could have been close to a finish in round 2 if she didn't engage along the fence and then get her back taken.

 

[m9]

Vacate the belt again

 

[Deadpool8812]

Yawn

 

[Taytro]

Vacate the belt again

This is the type of action that took the UFC so long to get women's divisions.

 

[pistolpete11]

Pennington could have finished this fight, but decided to make it a grindfest.

 

[End of Line]

This is awful

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Seems like everyone wants Pennington to break away... except her.

Legit laughing about DC always just disagreeing with Cruz

Her team has been begging for it since the 2nd minute of the first round.

 

[CDJ]

Rocky is a grinder

It turns out 2024 is also not my year

 

[Mickey Marner]

We knew this card was a stinker going in and it did not disappoint.

 

[m9]

Embarrassing from MBS

Awful fight and 4 fights in 3 hours is brutal

Don't know how you EST guys get through Raquel Pennington fights at 1241am

 

[Nakatomi]

Hopefully Pyscho Strickland and Dudebro du Plessis can send us out on a high note...

 

[Neutrinos]

I'd be okay never seeing a women's fight again

 

[End of Line]

This card is gonna end up ending at 2amEST
