GDT: UFC on ESPN: Namajunas vs. Cortez

[Bunk Moreland]

Good stop by Dan, can't do that

Yeah it was pretty bad lol I dont think brundage wants to stay in here really

"Accidental blows" lol, that shit was not accidental. Should be a DQ

Yeah I don't get that lol he was intentionally raining elbows down there.

Dan said 2 shots to the back of the head? I saw like 5. There was a lump forming pretty far behind his ear.

Hated Cruz's commentary about "the fighter needs to decide whether he wants to be there or not"... The fighter probably couldn't count to 10 if you asked him too, he's rocked, if he fought he'd get slept within the next minute.

I hated that too. Makes it out like the guy is being a softie and just wants out if the fight can't continue... and I'm not saying that doesn't happen but people do get rocked by these shots.

Important fight for Bonfim to bounce back

 

[CDJ]

Good strategy from Loosa imo

Bonfim doesn't seem to be slowing though.

He did not one bit

Jean Silva may be a star

I'd like to see Silva vs better competition but he looked damn good for being 2 weeks out of his last fight.

That whole Fight Nerds camp looks great.

Think that was the wrong decision. I thought it was close but clear that Ponzinibbio won, more damage, more pressure, more octagon control. No idea how a judge gave Salikhov round 3, I thought that one was the most obvious one for Santiago.

Dober isn't a star but he's no slouch

 

[Taytro]

Dober isn't a star but he's no slouch

He's a good gatekeeper for getting to a ranked fighter, but he's 35 and has now lost 3 of his last 4, only beating Ricky Glenn in that span. Would love to see Silva vs Diego Lopez or something.

 

[Taytro]

Rose landed a strong right hand in the first and knocked Cortez's fake eylash off.

 

[CDJ]

Ended up losing on Loosa and then winning on Erosa/Rose/Silva parlay at like +650

Rose just a little bit better everywhere than Cortez. Good learning exp for Tracy though

 

[CDJ]

POTN- Johnson, Jackson

FOTN- Dober-Silva

 

[Avs_19]

IMO, Silva is the most impressive coming out of this event. Not only for what he did to Dober but also adding in what he did the other week against Jourdain. Excited to see him against better competition.

Couple of awesome KO's by Jackson and Johnson. Jackson with the little feint with the right followed by the left was so smooth. Johnson and Van both just came out firing; perfectly placed uppercut to end it.

Some of the most blatant illegal shots you'll see from Alhassan. It wasn't even one of those where they're landed because the opponent keeps moving and puts himself in that position. Just illegal from start to finish.

Main and co-main were completely forgettable fights.
