Oh, damn the dude with KNOCKOUT KING on his freaking chest turned out to be a bad dude who happens to be extremely proficient at knocking people out? What were your expectations?

Let him fight that fat Philly cop who def has beaten the **** out of innocent people and call it a day.

is all the hate for lewis because the extra shots landed? because that happens a lot in mma

talking about pos, Dana White is a huge pos. MMA is bigger than UFC, hopefully one day they see better competition that pays fighters what they deserve.

Let's be honest. The UFC basically has monopoly in MMA. If you wanna leave a legacy and build a big name for yourself - that may allow you to cash in, in other promotions, you likely have to go through the UFC first. Other promotions are living of the hype of former legends in the sport or stealing some 'big' names from the UFC. The UFC ain't feeling it, because they're able to build up and promote new talent everytime. Like Mousasi, Rumble, Bader, Anderson, Yoel - new names are coming in and taking their places after a few months. The UFC don't have to match the pay from Bellator, when they can bring up new talents with 1/10 of the salary.

Edwards vs Belal is a real easy gamble score. I bet 150, pay out is 220. That's free money.

So unfortunate for both guys, but more so for Muhammad obviously. Such a shame, but I’m genuinely hoping he’s able to recover and retain sight in that eye. The worst eye poke I’ve ever seen.

Edwards was jabbing his fingers out the whole fight. Herb Dean is the worst. His lead hand was stabbed out perpetually. And that was his second actual connect.

**** Herb Dean.

We’ve seen so many fights with multiple eye pokes, and no point deduction. I can’t blame Herb here. He gave him a warning on the first one, which likely meant that if Belal could continue that Edwards would’ve gotten a point deduction, considering how bad it was.

But Belal posted on Twitter that his vision is slowly coming back and doctors say there’s no permanent damage, so that’s great to hear.

But Edwards continued. It was outrageous. He continued to hold his fingers directly at eye level in front of Belal's head. I remember thinking to myself 'WTF Herb' even before the second poke.

These are all within 45 seconds *after* the first eye poke, a minute or two *before* the second. This is an 18 second sequene, with 3 separate stabs:
