Arena Let's get it on!: The Mixed Martial Arts Discussion Thread

We'll see if that theory holds out when the NFL returns.

 

If anybody was wondering about the fate of The Ultimate Fighter:

 

Waterson-Hill. Wow. Baller fight.

Great words after from Michelle too.

 

And was originally supposed to be a three round co - main event until Texeria got pulled due to COVID related issues.

 

Proved themselves worthy of it. Prob the closest fight in awhile, def since COVID

 

DC reveals he had COVID during training for Stipe fight.

 

That whole card was just fantastic from Ed Herman pulling a submission out of thin air to the ladies just playing rock em sock em robot for 5 rounds. I think the judges made the right decision as I had Waterson winning the last three rounds. I got to give the devil his due. UFC along with the PGA has been by far the most compelling sports during the pandemic. I don't know what is it but overall the fight cards have been really good the past several months. So much more action and dramatic endings then we saw in more recent times when fighters were much more conservative.

And @Juliet316 I wonder how that effected his camp though cardio did not seem to be a issue in that fight.

 

Former Bellator Lightweight Champion signs Michael Chandler signs with UFC.

 

I can't stand Covington but he is kicking the crap out of Woodley right now.

Edit: Over with. Woodley broke his ribs or something.

 

He called out Usman again. I guess if he wants another broken jaw...

 

Whoa! That kick...

 

Anybody watching Khabib? I think he's gonna wreck Gaethje

 

Don't have ESPN+ so no, but I'll watch the results.

 

Damn. What a performance, what a career. GOAT?

Great post-fight as well. Excited to see Gaethje go after it again.

 

If the retirement sticks, that kisses Tony/Khabib farewell for good.

 

Khabib is unstoppable, makes it look easy. I hope his retirement is just a negotiating tactic, he could probably dominate the division for years to come if he wants it.

 

Well, he put Greg Hardy on yet another card and is about to promote another McGregor fight, so what do we expect?

 

UFC's cut Anderson Silva.

 

This made me chuckle, and I don't even feel bad about it.

 

UFC releases Yoel Romero.

 

He's finally going to track down Gay Jesus

 

Yoel Romero signs with Bellator; to compete at 205.
