I was just about to say the same thing. I actually cared about the TUF finale about five hours ago. Now it is the furthest thing from my mind. I have to decompress and wrap my mind around everything that happened tonight. And there is no way it can live up to this. Can't disagree with anything here. I think it was more the body shots, but there may be an element of gassing as well. I initially thought it was an early stoppage, but it looked like Chad was done. And Lawler-MacDonald...what a damn fight.
-
True, but he is also the same guy that says that he trains to always be ready for a fight. If you are at the top of a division and don't have a fight, you should be that way. As much as I love and respect Aldo...especially in that division. I am pretty sure that Mendes was not sitting on the couch and watching Parks and Rec and eating Cheetos. He was in the gym, just in case. And just in case happened.
-
I never talked **** about McGregor; he is a great fighter. I just did not necessarily believe in him against the tip top of the division. I am impressed by him tonight, but some concerns still remain. I like him, and I am happy for him, but I still don't know if he beats Aldo. Or Edgar. Or Mendes on a full camp. I'd love to see those fights, and we probably will.
-
I don't know about faster. Absolutely stronger. Conor hit some huge body shots early, and apparently they took their toll. I think you are looking into this too much, but we will have to disagree. Let's listen to some Bob Seger and hug it out.
-
Good point. And I honestly thought that Mendes was just as hard of a fight would have been as Edgar. I love Frankie, but Chad is a tough SOB, with an element that Conor has never seen. I would not be surprised. Those early body shots were nasty.
-
I don't think there was anything weird. Because if there was anything weird, that puts Alpha Male's integrity in question, and that is the last group of guys that I would question. Incredible care. That's all I can say.
-
I can't believe Chad gassed. But he absolutely did.
-
haha...I would not go that far Dana.
-
Not anymore in this fight...but the last few fights, Mendes seemed determined to prove that he had a good standup game.
-
I don't know if there is anything weird...Mendes has been utilizing and improving his standup as time goes by
-
True, but most guys at that weight are by Mendes
-
Alright fellas...here we go.
-
He is is probably blowing Dana's phone up... Come on Dana...come on Dana That's what you get when you replace a tough fight with a fight that might be tougher. Style-wise at least.
-
Wow...I am pretty surprised at that.
-
Would not surprise me one bit. He is a tough little ****.
-
I guarantee you he will fight. It might not go well, but he will fight. I think this is the same song that Aldo was going to come out to.
-
Oh...we are getting a little fancy with the entrances. That's not very UFCish. I am all for it.
-
Yeah, i don't like Rory, but I have to give it to him. He is a hell of a fighter, and fought a great fight tonight. He figured Robbie out for a little while, but just got his face broken.
-
I agree. I think I had Robbie up a round, but I expected a split decision if it went to the cards. Happy it didn't.
-
Rory-Lawler was the fight I cared about most. Now that Robbie won, the next one is gravy.
-
It is absolutely amazing to see how Robbie has evolved, even from the EliteXC and Strikeforce days. He just keeps getting better, and guys don't typically do that after that many fights.
-
What a fight. Lawler!
-
I don't know about the first round, but I am fairly certain of who won the second.
-
Gotta admit, I have never heard a fighter come out to Sam & Dave. Mendes is going to come out to Soul Man now. I still can't get over the fact that Robbie Lawler is a UFC champ in 2015. Hopefully he still is in about 25 minutes.
-
And then Robbie coming out to some old school "Hold on, I'm coming." Didn't see that coming. Haha.
