GDT: UFC 305: du Plessis vs. Adesanya/PFL 8

[Taytro]

I have it 29-28 Gamrot but think the judges go 29-28 Hooker.

 

[I am not exposed]

Yeah that was a really good fight.

Also glad that judge without that outrageous scorecard has already been removed.

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Hooker throwing up so many guilly's you'd think he's Poirier(smart he wasn't pulling guard for them though)

Probably Gamrot, but can see it going to Hooker.

 

[Ouroboros]

Good fight. I think 29-28 Gamrot, but could go the other way.

 

[Taytro]

Hooker looked way better than expected here, really proved that he's improved.

 

[Chaels Arms]

Dan "The Real Slim Shady" Hooker is undefeated.

 

[I am not exposed]

Not surprised by the split decision. And it actually goes against Gamrot! That never happens lol

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Hooker thinking tattoos and blonde hair will make him have a run like Oliveira

Maybe there's something to this

 

[Chaels Arms]

Has this judge removal thing ever happened before? I wonder if that's going to be something the UFC does now or if it's just a quirk of being in AUS.

I'd rather see this version of Dan Hooker vs McGregor than Michael Chandler.

 

[torero]

i real agree with the Hooker decision.
he is spectacular. you have to encourage that.

 

[Taytro]

Not surprised by the split decision. And it actually goes against Gamrot! That never happens lol

Little hometown (or close as you get) bump for Hooker.

Wait... The 2 judges who gave Hooker the win gave him the first round, not the second? I thought the first was clearly Gamrot and the 2nd was the swing round.

 

[Chaels Arms]

The amount of money the UFC must pay Bisping to treat Power Slap like a real sport must be obscene.

 

[Chaels Arms]

WOW

 

[Taytro]

Holy shit. Kai saves my bankroll. What a knockout. I thought Erceg looked phenomenal to start and then gets starched.

 

[Killahpunk]

Kai gets it done early.

 

[Chaels Arms]

There's no way Izzy doesn't complete the CKB sweep.

 

[I am not exposed]

There's no way Izzy doesn't complete the CKB sweep.

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Great performance, but that shouldn't warrant a title shot given his loss to Albazi

 

[Taytro]

Great performance, but that shouldn't warrant a title shot given his loss to Albazi

Royval, Moreno, and Erceg all lost to Pantoja recently. Albazzi had the neck injury and pulled out of his last fight, which was a non title fight so I think Albazzi needs 1 more win to get a title shot since he's only ever fought 1 ranked fighter. Same with Taira. Mokaev didn't get resigned.

That leaves Kai as the next man up unless you want to see Royval get another chance less than a year after his last chance.

 

[BobColesNasalCavity]

Hoping for a good fight. Izzy still got it?

 

[I am not exposed]

This has been a really good card so far. Watch the headliner be a snoozer lol

Oh hell yeah, coming to the South African national anthem with two rugby legends!

 

[Chaels Arms]

Dricus looks chiseled

 

[Taytro]

Dricus looks much more confident/calm than Izzy, which is odd considering how many times Izzy has been here.

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Very even round, hard to score

 

[Chaels Arms]

Close round, no idea who to score that one for.
