The one fight you thought would be a war but wasn't?

[egk]

Diaz vs Condit still bums me out. I don't think I've ever been more excited for a fight.

This. I still think that's why Condit got so much hate afterwards. It wasn't that he won. It was all his talk before the fight, hyping it up as if he was gonna take it to Diaz. Many wanted to see if a guy named The Natural Born Killer would be the guy to stop Nick. Instead the Natural born runner was born.

Crocop vs Mir.

Fuck that fight in every way.

 

[McgreGOATsLeft]

Diego Sanchez vs Joe Lauzon comes to mind. Lauzon beat the breaks off of Sanchez and it was a surprisingly quick one.

Who would've thought?

Me, I chose Lauzon by KO.

Garbandt X Almeida

I was so sad when he starched Almeida. Guy was/is way too exciting to get sent back to prelims so fast

 

[Skirm]

Hendricks/Lawler 2 what a chicken shit that hendricks

 

[Haj01]

Guillard/Stephens. Or at least someone getting punched really hard.

Yep, I was gonna say this!

Both guys were talking mad shit before the fight, hyping it up, saying how they would destroy eachother, that there was no chance it would be boring or go to decision. And the fight completely sucked. Both guys played it safe. Was like a light sparring match lol.

Condit & Diaz.
I was SOOOOOOOO excited for that fight.
2 exciting guys, talking about war and dying inside the octagon.....
then Condit run.....and run....... and run some more......


I mean, I can't fault him for that. This is the way to beat Diaz. But NOT what I expected. Not from a guy like Condit.

 

[jumasterflex]

Guillard/Stephens. Or at least someone getting punched really hard.

Came here to say this darn ...ok ill think of another one ...penn vs gsp 2 and pettis vs bendo 2

I don't get why people are bringing up quick KO's like Conor/Aldo. It seems like the point of the thread is to mention fights that never got out of second gear and went to boring decisions when nobody expected them to.

Read the title. Both can apply.
