Pereira is not very good at striking, he just has cement in his hands. Like, I don't even understand how he stands like that and throws so clumsily, and was a pro kickboxer. I just hope Izzy has the motivation to try and stop him.

Great fights tonight! Tui gets upset! Woowowow!

Great main event. Holland continues to put himself and find himself in bad spots. Don’t stand that **** up

Fantastic main event! Super exciting!

Wow. What a card. Even on paper it was great, and it overachieved in reality.

I hope (but doubt) that Tui is taking of his brain. He's actually super exciting and always game. But I fear that he's probably acting super short-sighted outside of the ring, sparring too much and having too many wars.

Holland will never achieve anything. Sorry. He doesn't even use a proper stance. He just stands straight up and tries to have quick hands. Sit into your knees, spread your legs, shift your weight forward and backward...fuuuuuck.

A very funny moment was this Nicolau guy's fight: he's fighting super conservative, all circling and movement, very little engagement...but he's clearly setting up kill strikes. And every once in a while he lands one. But, like, every 2 minutes. Crowd starts booing, crowd is pissed. Then, bam, he KOs the guy with a counter strike. The crowd is, it seems, more or less just embarrassed and just goes quiet. Like, no one clapped at all. Despite the fact he got a KO like 6 minutes into the fight and basically had a perfect fight. I've never seen a less celebrated KO.

Decent fight night last night.

Drew Dober vs. Green was awesome. That's a sure re-watch.

Stephan Bonnar passed.

1/2 of the single most important moment in UFC history and he's gone at 45. He clearly had a rough go the last few years, so freaking sad.

The most boring event. Skimmed it in 20 mins on my phone.

The only noteworthy moment was that Nurmagamedov cousin catching the dude's head rather than hammerfisting his KOd body. Very cool.

Apex events are trash

Sean’s stand up is also so gross I dunno how it’s pretty successful

I cannot believe that 3-4 years later we still just have Moreno and Figueiredo fighting eachother over and over and over again. Unreal. Abolish flyweight.

This is your worst opinion. They're amazing fights. You've never given them a chance.

Dupp · Post #1975 » by **Dupp** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:23 pm

Flyweight is great and their last fight was fire. Time to move on after this one though.

If you think I'm sh*tting on the fights or either fighter at all, then you're missing my point. Why not just let these guys bolster 135 even more? They would certainly be competitive and it's "only" 10 lbs.

The division itself is horrible. Look at the top 10. If there were other good fighters they wouldn't just keep making rematches between these two over and over again, regardless of how entertaining their matchups are.

EDIT: came back to eat crow and admit I forgot that Moreno fought KKF. I'm not a believer in that guy at all though tbh.

Ok I'll watch some of the card bc Shogun is a legend but holy crap does the LHW belt not mean anything along with the HW belt and there's zero interest in this 125 fight.

The whole thing is blah.

Damn no dedicated thread for this card.

Truly not worth it.

Shogun goes out with a L. 2005 Shogun was so special, only to be outdone by 2011 Jon Jones.

LMAO Johnny Walker is 1/1
