    Ngannou shows off his scary power.

    The ufc really want him to be champ. I hope they don’t strip Miocic.. they need a rematch

    I was picking Cruz to win with a knee, not Cejudo...

    The stoppage wasn’t as bad as Cruz is claiming

    Amazing fight. Gaethje has improved so much and Ferguson has an inhuman chin. I'm happy that Herb stopped it when he did

    We'll probably never see Khabib v Tony now 😞

    Well that was worth waiting for.

    Masterclass from Gaethje.

    Thank you Uncle Dana.

    Had some long over due yard work to do so just watching the replay of the prelims now and the the main card. Not bad so far.

    UFC Fight Night 172

    Excellent Prelim Card

    Some good bouts on the Main Card

    The UFC fighters who've fought in the past 8 days haven't spent Lockdown eating and watching Netflix.

    Very impressed.

    Will be interesting to see if other sportsmen return to work as prepared.

    Thought Barboza won and easily. Also thought Angela Hill won. Not quite robberies but I was scratching my head.

    Overall card was great.

    I'm surprised about the lack of fights announced for the May 30th fight night or UFC 250. White was promising more announcements a couple of days ago

    I wonder if they cancel the fight night and put them all on the PPV?

    Woodley Vs Burns is the fight no one asked for and no one wanted to see. Woodley vs Covington or Woodley vs Usman 2 or Covington vs Usman 2 or Woodley vs Street Jesus or Street Jesus vs Covington...all on a ppv at a later date would be preferable to this

    I saw it and really enjoyed it

    Woodley looked bemused and bereft

    And well beaten

    @MiketheSnow I enjoyed Burns effort but not Woodley. He’s looking so one dimensional now.

    Rest of the card good. I think I preferred the larger stadium than the UFC gym though.

    The echo made strikes sound brutal in the empty arena's

    The could improve a few things about the apex events

    • The audio mix could change. More fight noise, less coaches yelling
    • I prefer the full size octagon. I know they won't change that though.
    • Buffer makes a difference. Martinez asking a non existent crowd to make some noise is shit
    • I hate the interview setup. I get that Nevada has not allowed the octagon interviews. Instead of headphones and a split screen why not have a large table with the fighter standing on one side and DC/Rogan on the other?

    Yeah I felt like the fighters were cramped. Although the flying front kick from Spike to start the round probs doesnt happen in a full size octogon.

    Martinez is like a boxing announcer. He's there to announce the fighters, which he does, but hes not part of the event.

    Im not sure I would have Bisbing and DC co commentate again.

    Garbrandt's punch yesterday was spectacular

    4:59 in round 2. He takes a risk by crouching and throwing everything into one punch and lands it perfectly. It looks like a bullshit movie punch

    Here's a gif someone posted on the sherdog forum

    Same punch. Different angle. This shows the speed

    O'Malleys perfectly timed punch with the casual walk away:

    In other news some Irish guy quit for the 3rd time and the women's 145lb division continues to suck
