Tom is the real champ now. Jon will come back in a year and fight Stipe, win, and then both will retire. Tom will be the defacto champ or he'll fight Cyril Gane to cement it.

I hate that stoppage a title fight.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Alex’s leg kicks are crazy. Jiri is already stumbling.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

DC was right, the back of his leg is fucked

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

Thanks for participating everyone. Hope to see you all again at the next event.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

HOLY FUCK BOYS

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

That Jiri Reyes knockout is just filthy.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

Damn Jiri is intense.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Tom Aspinall vs Gane would be an absolute banger.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think Aspinall would dominate Gane on the ground. I’d still watch it though.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh, absolutely. But Gane's speed and evasiveness would make the standup much, much more interesting. Gane's still gonna get his shit mixed, though..

Yeah it's hard to say, he did eat a lot of elbows. Goddard probably assumed it was a wrap.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I’m indifferent about the stoppage. He was hurt but, it appeared that Jiri had some more fight in him. On the other hand, Jiri’s body language after the elbows likely didn’t look good from a ref perspective.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, same. But knowing about his insane chin, Goddard should have let him take a few more..

Anyways, Pereira wins either way

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah I am quite certain Pereira gets the finish here anyway, I just would have liked to give Jiri the chance to try to hang on, because he has NO quit in him whatsoever.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

BANG!! Wooooo!! What a performance.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

Jiri is so classy.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I’ve been rooting for him since the Paddy decision. Nice win.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I think this applies to absolutely everyone haha

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Wow that was fast. I thought Aspinall was a dead man walking after he ate those first two shots.

I think he had it wrapped up but I think the stoppage was a lil snappy

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

That was an insane first fight, can’t wait to see a rematch if they have one

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Jones will never fight either of those dudes.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Lopes closed that one out definitively, damn.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Damn sometimes I feel for Dom Reyes, getting robbed against Jones and then those bad KOs.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Yeah I remember when I watched Reyes VS Jones I was FLOORED that they gave it to Jones. The fix is in, that was my first thought.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Reyes had a ton of potential. He’s got a fight coming up. Maybe Dom will turn things around. If he gets flatlined again I hope he hangs it up.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Lopes has some serious contender potential. His style is so exciting and he’s got some crispy technique.

Fights start in a half an hour. Let’s go!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago
[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Andrade is crypronite for Dern, too strong to get taken down and just way better on the feet.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Wow, he looked a little disoriented already.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Can't watch this, gonna check the result later.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I made it for the co and main...phew!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Thankfully that's over. Nothing against Dern but that second round was hard to watch. Good stoppage from the ref.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Has Saint-Denis a tiny Stipe in his corner?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Pavlovich is going to be outclassed. Aspinall's distance management will be too much.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think this is the most likely outcome, but Pavlovich just needs to connect once.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

That's true hahahah

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Dern Forrest Griffined out :(

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Stipe lookin like a Bond villain

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Bond villain mixed with Steve Jobs.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I got Alex in this one, but Jiri is a dog. Coin flip fight.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I am stoked for this one.

Alex should have the cleaner striking, but Jiri is just wild and probably a bit bigger at 205.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Yeah. This is solid matchmaking. Not sure Alex has earned it, but I like this matchup.
