method man Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I used to watch every event from 2011 thru the ESPN deal. Hard to pull myself to watch a lot of these cards nowadays. Very watered now, weak co-mains and main events that should be co-mains. Maybe part of it is that a lot of the exciting fighters / legends I started watching have now retired (Hendo being a great example) or left for elsewhere (Mousasi). Taking a look through the roster, are Shogun and Overeem the last PRIDE era fighter left? Although both are well past their prime, both are so fun to watch given the technical advantage, Shogun especially. I find myself in awe watching flabby Shogun pull out wins vs rising prospects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 I've been watching some old MMA fights on YouTube with the UFC's free fights. Is it me or is Connor McGregor mostly hype? Dude should keep his hands up. On a related note, I watched a video of all of Mike Tyson's knockouts. He was (and is) a brute. The number of fights he had in his first two years is amazing, but not surprising considering that he KO'd most of his opponents in the first round without really getting hit, or even much of a workout. Who scheduled those schloobs? Good for padding his resume I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a rookie pro boxer going against a Mayweather who had 49 pro boxing fights and considered by many, to be the best or one of the best ever.

BigDibbs31 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 With Burns out due to COVID it looks like there are some negotiations for Masvidal to replace this weekend on short notice. This super card could potentially upgrade a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
