I actually think Lewis is an alright fighter. That lead leg headkick is fecking nuts.

He can't hold his hands up for 3 rounds.

He's a thousand times the fighter Derek Brunson is.

Lewis sucks, btw.

With Cain always hurt, Overrem with no chin, and JDS and Werdum too old, is Stipe the only goof heavyweight? Maybe Ngannou, but the best guy he's fought is Arlovski's corpse.

They're all goofs as far as I'm concerned.

This fat shaming needs to stop.

I've been awake and watching the card. Just some thoughts.....

I really enjoyed watching Inoue, his transitions and grappling were such a joy to watch. Really looking forward to seeing him compete in the future. We'll hear more about him down the line.....

Looks like Russell Doane just saved his job with that win. Good for him.

The Jingliang-Camacho fight was a fun watch too. I really like seeing journeymen fighters finally getting their shot in the "big leagues". They always look to put on a good performance and Li did a great job of coming back after a tough first round. Camacho had dropped Li and I thought he was going to pull out the surprise win. I hope Camacho sticks around, both guys showed a lot of heart.

I'm hopping off the Scoggins hype train now. He pissed me off throughout the whole Ian McCall thing, he seems to struggle to keep his weight on track (but tbh most flyweights do...), and now just lost to Sasaki. This is someone I pegged as a future contender of this division, and though he is still young, he will have ways to go before I'm confident in him again. Maybe Sasaki is a future contender? He did better than I expected against Reis, and now against Scoggins. He called out Ray Borg and I won't mind that fight...

Tough way for Dy to lose but a good stoppage. Caceres has done a lot better using his reach to his advantage, I always enjoy watching Bruce Leeroy.

Walt Harris has got to get rid of "The Big Ticket" nickname. That's all.

Gomi needs to retire.....he was on the decline before he even arrived to the UFC, and now it's just really bad. These last 4 performances have been really...really....bad. I think we might see Arlovski and Gomi's last fights on this card.

Colby Covington really sucks man. I just dislike his attitude. And every post interview he thinks of himself as the greatest thing. You're asking for A title shot? Are you stupid? Ugh. He's a boring fighter, and thinks too highly of himself for it. He has done nothing to expand on his game. Jus great wrestling. ANd he doesn't use his wrestling to set anything up. Just a blanket

Kind of glad he didn't end up getting that fight with RDA. I couldn't handle RDA losing to this clown.

would be cool to see him face Brazilian Cowboy considering I dislike them both.

You know a fight is terrible when the ref calls timeout in the middle of the round and begs the fighters to fight.

My wife is watching with me (we both get up early with the baby) and was just like "please, please tell me this fight is only 3 rds". Lol.

REDDzone · Post #31 » by **REDDzone** » Sat Jun 17, 2017 2:10 pm

Lol. Of course that happens 5 seconds after my post. It almost made up for the previous 15 minutes.

Holy moly! Wow what a KO by Holm! Dang!

Was that about the main event? After the first minute I just skipped to the end.

Holm's agent says she deserves a title fight, at either 135 or 145. They might even offer her for Cyborg's next (assuming she wins).

REDDzone · Post #35 » by **REDDzone** » Sun Jun 18, 2017 12:58 am

She is coming off a 3 fight losing streak. Come on.

I'll never like fighters who stand over or otherwise taunt their KOed/concussed opponents. I'll be excited to watch Khalil Rountree get smashed when he fights someone I've heard of.
