General UFC

I'm trying to think of a better night of fights and I'm coming up empty. 7 for 7 on knockouts is wild.
 
Topuria wins that fight in the second round if he makes Gaethje stand rather than go to the canvas with him.
I don't think Gaethje could stand, I've seen that same mistake over and over again in MMA.

Ref overruling the doctor?

He had Gaethje hurt bad. I was pulling for Justin, but you could tell Topuria was the younger fighter in his prime. Dude is explosive. I heard that he was actually heavier walking into the ring too, which surprised me a little.

That doctor didn't look like he wanted to make a decision. It was bad all the way around. He risked Topuria's health but also from a sporting perspective, gave him over twice the recovery times between rounds.

I didn't catch anything about it.

I want that cover of Ain't No Grave that Gaethje came out to though.

Dana White says he’s going to match the “fight bonus” the President is giving to the Marine Band for UFC White House performance. He also said he’s working on releasing an album of the Marine Band performance that night. Phenomenal! https://t.co/4YBUfn9TrB

Not sure about the stoppage tbh.

Seems like Green was in the same situation earlier and they let it continue.

He was turtled up and not fighting back. It was a little messed up because of the amount of time left to end the round. Think Green still would have won in the 2nd.

There's something about high level amateur wrestlers being full-blown badasses.

This guy looks pretty good on his feet but if you had to pick a discipline for your base, it's hard to argue against wrestling. Top flight grappling and a good chin will get you far.
 
Kavanaugh taken down like child's play.

You know Cormier wants to make a comment about English fighters not being able to grapple lol.
 
Dumb game plan by Royval to try and stand when he has such an advantage on the ground.
