You mean two fights he got dominated in and one fight that got thrown for the easy rubber match payday?
Connor Wilson
The news, the events and links all up to date makes us all feel great. All these other guys trying to compete can call it quits even the fine young Brits. THANK YOU
Eli Anderson
mayweather fight - conor shits the bed so hard MMA now considered a joke by most people. thanks conor. fuck that guy.
Nicholas Lee
would this work with anyother fighter? I can't see it
Owen Rodriguez
Look at he end of the Mendez fight. He puts his hands down and lets Goobs KO him. WHY would anyone do that?
Benjamin Scott
MendeS was tired as shit because he took the fight on 3 days notice.
They wouldn't pay mendes off and let him toss conor around
Charles Ross
Just DC and GSP.
Aiden Price
other way around. goober paid most of his mayweather winning to the UFC as a condition of letting him fight.
Camden Robinson
Which fighter is this?
Jaxon Foster
that would be KING Reina my man
James Thompson
Nate has a terminal case of not giving a fuck and Mayweather's got more than enough money.
Aiden Scott
i thought mendes threw that too
Benjamin Adams
The spammers mom put parental controls on so he can't use explicit images anymore
Andrew Moore
I listened to a few Mayweather songs and it was all disgusting mumble rap, can't believe people unironically like it.
Mendes would have survived and probably won fight if he just pulled guard
Samuel Powell
his cardio was shot. I don't know why fighters let themselves get out of shape without being champs.The champion the only person with the luxury of dictating fights. Mendes was completely out of fight shape and took that fight and he looked great for the first 6 minutes but he completely fell of the cliff after that
Joshua Miller
HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA >muh women dont use steroids HAHAHAHAHAHAH
Anthony Collins
Both of them were completely gassed, if he made it to next round I'm sure he could have taken Conor down again to do more damage and tire him out even more
Caleb Morris
>You don't like Rose more than me, do you user?
How do you respond?
Justin Rogers
Daily reminder that not a single hispanic has ever won a UFC belt
[Chicanos aren't hispanics]
Nathaniel Reed
I am going to watch the entire fight again right now. My memory is that mendes looked like houston/kimbo in terms of cardio in the second round
Of course mendes was a little more tired but Conor was right there behind him. One more takedown in next round would have made the fight I think
Cameron Gonzalez
Aspen is back guys
Hunter James
Simple man, minimal mandrama, all I can ask for in a fighter. He will be champ provided he stays healthy.
Aiden Campbell
Aspen Ladd is pretty feminine for a transgender
Caleb Perez
>Hey user, wanna spar?
Jacob Collins
Until he has some consistent fight back to back he will always be my anti-boy
Juan Scott
So they're giving Aspen the Cyborg scraps. She beat up Lansberg after Cyborg broke her and now Leslie. Good strategy by the UFC
Carter Morris
you're a loser
Anthony Fisher
Joe doesn't work without goldie. The commentary is completely different from Anik/Cruz shitting on him
Jason Davis
Yes Khalabib bless
Austin Baker
Goldie was a dumb sperg. Glad they got rid of him.
Jason Gomez
Did someone say....UNDERHOOK?!
Noah Hall
>anti-boy You know what they say, it's one step from anti-boy to boy.
Jaxon Hughes
even so getting rid of him and keeping joe is just isn't working
They have tried all sorts of combinations and joe just isn't meshing with any of them.
Nathaniel Campbell

Michael Garcia
2bh Leslie is underrated, but still I wonder why she hasnt dropped back to 125 now that she can
Mason Gomez
>Dominating performance by Holly Holms - Joe Rogan

Didn't greg Jackson say holly won 1,2,4 against cyborg?
Jeremiah Sanchez
1,2, and 5

Have you been hit by Khabib?

But fear not—every one of these dudes is known for putting on a show, and most of them have at least a modest chance of becoming elite. Watch their fights, educate yourself, and cheer on the young lions as they eat the old.
Lucas Sanchez
it was real close to happening if cyborg didnt absolutely maul her in the 5th round. It's insane they found a way to give holly 2 rounds. I don't understand why judges aren't forced to be locked in a room with monitors because they clearly aren't seeing the real fight. Holly isn't the first or the last fighter to win rounds solely by whiffing the air.

He's been in the UFC since 2013 and has compiled a 4-3 record.
Joseph Long
Did you watch mendes and mcgoober gas?
Ian Cook
yeah I stand by what I said. After he failed that submission mendes had nothing left in the tank. He couldn't even defend himself for 30 seconds.
Liam Reyes
>Justin Willis You're a wise man
Tyler Collins
>this guy with his infinite list of literal whos again
Jordan Foster
you found the one joke name, congrats my man he's raw, far from flushed he's reinvented himself there's this Canadian dude who loves him so I had to put him on there Kids, this is your brain on casual mode. Don't be like this man.
Charles Ortiz
Youre just throwing names on a list of fighters you haven't heard about. Half of them are 30 years old and/or have a dozen fights in the ufc
Alexander Harris
You don't think if mendes pulled guard to survive round he could take Conor down and tire him out even more?
Jace Perry
>Youre just throwing names on a list of fighters you haven't heard about. False. >Half of them are 30 years old and/or have a dozen fights in the ufc Late bloomers exist, my guy. Also, fight miles are more relevant than physical age when it comes to prospect status. Some of these guys have a little more wear on them for sure, but I don't think they've hit their peaks.
Nolan Ramirez
i love how there is always a bunch of losers in BJJ just observing
Ayden Rodriguez
No I don't think he could have pulled guard in that situation. He got rocked. Just falling to the ground would have probably gotten herb to call it even earlier. He had no defense and was getting hit by everything conor threw. I have no confidence he could have gotten another take down after how quickly reached E. He was the one on top of mcgregor and he gassed out. People meme about the fight camp but it can't be dismissed. Too bad we never got to see conor vs mendes with him in shape. I 100% think mendes takes it if got to have a proper camp. Conor had no answers for him.
This also makes me excited for Mendes vs Holloway. Mendes looks better than aldo and it's weird
Logan Brooks
>false Sure
>late bloomers exist Thats not a prospect then. And if youre countinf about fight miles then 32 fight veteran shouldn't be there
Cameron Howard
Conor landed a pushkick to his belly then dropped him with a punch, before that punch there was only like 10 seconds left? After that pushkick is when he should have pulled guard, but he was up against fence like you said. He was just in a shitty spot it would seem
Liam Wood
>he's reinvented himself Making shit up
Andrew Jenkins
Forgot to add, you'll admit Conor was very gassed too though?
Evan Ross
yeah conor always gasses but he seemed to have at least way more in the tank than mendes had.
Mendes look like he was on his way to cyanosis
Juan Cook
Why is it so hard for you to believe I'm familiar with all of them? Is it because you're not? >Thats not a prospect then. It can be. To use baseball terms, some of these guys could've been AAAA and now aren't. >And if youre countinf about fight miles then 32 fight veteran shouldn't be there I thought about that, but you gotta count Taisumov. He's clearly on the rise. I guess he's more like Ichiro coming over from Japan, so not a real rookie, but still kind of a rookie. Nope, he showed some serious adjustments in striking defense and takedown timing/chain wrestling in the fight against Salikhov and Pyle. If more people want him taken off, I can do that.
Parker Sanders
Can someone explain how this weak looking soy boy is a LHW? Dudes not even that tall either. 6'0
James Bailey
why would you unironically call someone that can murder you a soy boy?
Eli Phillips
I think he should probably fight at MW, and Khalil really went full retard in that fight
Gavin Nelson
Plenty of soy boys if not all of them could murder me given the right circumstances. Doesn't make them any less of a soy boy.
Charles Garcia
You're obviously not considering the names you throw on then
Quadruple A in baseball refers to scrubs who go up and down from the majors it's nothing to do with prospect status
Blake Morris
so what you're saying is you're extra concentrated soy
Levi Watson
Khabib should move upto welterweight if he wants greatness. After mauling el cucuy & the notorious ofc
Joseph Phillips
Oluwale Bamboozled will be right back into the UFC with a few cheeky wins
Daniel Gomez
Khalil is just a shit fighter in general tbqh. Terrible fight IQ, just has giganigga power.
Tyler Wilson
>major adjustments against two cans for sure
Connor Cruz
>You're obviously not considering the names you throw on then I am. >Quadruple A in baseball refers to scrubs who go up and down from the majors it's nothing to do with prospect status Sure, but they're still prospects. A great example of a late bloomer/AAAA guy is Nelson Cruz. If you google any article on his breakout season, you'll see him referred to as a current failed prospect up to that point. Regardless, Taisumov is staying on the list. Sorry.
Angel Morris
No but if thats how you interpreted my comment more power to you buddy.
Christian Roberts
Gotta start somewhere if you want to build momentum. I probably should take him off, though. Any other feedback?
David Baker
Ok. What does that make you? Gluten free tofu on a bed of kale plated nicely on a piece of oak? No offense
Julian Wilson
>goes 1-4 in the UFC >get cut for poor performance >complains about getting cut
What a cheeky lad
Austin Perez
>sure but theyre still prospects No they arent. They're basically benchwarmers
You just made a list of "hey look at these semi obscure fighters i think ive only heard of, give me praise!!!"
Andrew Martinez
lol you're substitute gluten as fuck, pussy
Grayson Long
>No they arent. They're basically benchwarmers "Benchwarmer" and "late bloomer" are inherently contradiction definitions. A "late bloomer" can be considered a prospect up until he blooms; thus, a late bloomer can be a AAAA player, although a AAAA player is not always a late bloomer. There's some nuance here, but I'm sure you understand. >You just made a list of "hey look at these semi obscure fighters i think ive only heard of, give me praise!!!" That's just your cynicism talking. I'm sorry you feel that way. I made the list to inform people of fighters they should keep an eye on, most of whom don't have so many fight miles. Taisumov is the Ichiro or Matsuzaka or whatever you want to consider on that list. He's still essentially green in the Big Show.
Sebastian Flores
No you sperg it just makes me the guy asking a simple question on this chinese cartoon imageboard but apparently you guys cant answer without chimping out
