    @MN5 my wife has said this at least 1 a week since I met her.

    Meanwhile Paulo has become wise to the post fight humping he received and is demanding a rematch.

    First off, he's right Izzy was an idiot for doing that to a beaten opponent. The heat of the battle etc but only people who honestly appreciated it were probably under the age of 18 with the "should probably know better" yobo thrown in. Izzy you won. Humping Costa and telling his cornermen you are going to "cum" all over them is probably a bit extreme for anyone, let alone the odd child who was allowed to watch the fight.

    Second, Costa can get fucked. He fucked up his chance. He looked like an amateur who had his first taste of the big time and froze. The antics the showmanship is all for naught when you get bossed like he did.

    I say no rematch. Costa got shitted right up and too easily. His honour be damned.

    I’m pretty sure Adesanya did the same celebration at a King in the Ring event a few years ago

        lol, there is no such thing as moral high ground in UFC..shit like this always happens. At least it was not drug cheating that could have enhanced performance.

        I particularly enjoyed the lead up to this, the Brazilian with a lisp struggling to dish out some trash talk, ( personally I thought he had to drop too much weight to make this class) and no chance in getting a rematch

        versus Israel just being a showman, albeit x rated. I'm sure he would not care less about what people think, just bring on the money and the next wannabe, will be the only things on his mind

            Thought this analysis was pretty damn good. Izzy really is an assassin in the ring.

              Izzy has 'outside centre round the corner speed'

              Looks like he's walking and then he's past you.

              Silva had it.

              Conor had it.

                Adesanya talks about his right titty. He has no idea what it is, just got it tested today. Passed 32 drug tests in the ufc

                Wants to fight again this year. Hints there is something being talked about. This is interesting because Cannonier is fighting Whittaker. Who else at MW? I wonder if they think they can get the LHW belt?

                      Great, great card. I watched the whole thing and happy as with the last finish as it coincided with the Kick off lol.

                      Obviously “the KO” was a highlight but so many great performances on this card and from the outset. Probably the best over all event in a couple of years. Cant remember a disappointing fight.

                          Carlos Ulberg will be fighting on the contender series next month.

                          His cornermen - Adesanya and Riddell

                            Your picks for the main events?


                            I think Gaethje & Cannonier

                            I'll be cheering for Whittaker but picking Cannonier. He's looking good as a MW

                            It's probably crazy picking against Khabib but Gaethje looked incredible last time. I'm not sure if Khabib will get a chance to take this to the ground

                                Surprised at the Gaethje picks. I hope he wins but it's hard to see past Khabib.

                                  @Duluth it’s usually when a fighter loses someone close to them that they start to go off the rails. Khabib could be different. He looked drained after the cut though.

                                  Gaethje looked amazing against El Cucuy. No one looks amazing against Ferguson.

                                  It’s a hard one to pick. I’ll go Justin.

                                  I’ve never really rated Bobby Knuckles that highly. He earned his belt but I don’t think he’s elite. He’s all heart and I think it’s that which gets him over the line in his fights. Cannonier is a monster from LHW that looks amazing after the cut to MW. He’s going to eat Whittaker.

                                    Spewing at Apple right now. My Ppv purchase didn’t become active until the end of the main event.

                                    I know all the results and will rewatch but absolutely spewing.

                                      1/6, though you went out on a limb with those picks so credit for that.

                                        In the most stacked division Khabib sits atop, no one who can beat him. Line Tony up immediately please.*

                                        Whittaker looked sharp. Totally over estimated Cannonier.

                                        *I didn’t see the post fight until now. So he retired dammit. Good for him. Bad for the sport.
