Very interesting... most of these dudes would never admit what Josh is admitting

There are so many guys I wish would just retire

Why does everyone Sherdog expect cliffs for everything? Just watch the video or don't.

Its tradition.

Pressure must be kept,thus we recieve some excellent cliff-work,as to be expected.

I purposely don’t provide cliffs if I want people to actually watch the video

It's called owning someone's soul. Examples: - Silva owns Franklin's soul.
- Cain owns Dos Santos' soul
- Gaethje owns Tony's soul
- Lesnar may own Mir's soul
- Robbie owns Rory's soul. (Not a one sided fight though).

Some guys just get beat so bad they're never the same sadly.

When Thomson was in the ufc he had a very pleasing style to watch. Arguably beat bendo for the title

Wow, and Thompson had been through many wars in his career prior to the Ferguson loss. I can even remember the fight being hard to watch watching it live. Thompson got absolutely dismantled and bashed every second of that fight and had multiple, nasty cuts where he painted the canvas red.

It's up there with Koscheck/Lytle as one of the most savage fights to watch just in terms of the many pints of blood spilled by one opponent. I knew these guys MUST have been feeling feint as they actually looked pale from the massive blood loss.

Weirdly enough, I don't think there's a rule for doctors evaluating blood loss during fights. They look for concussion symptoms, broken bones, vision and cuts where the blood runs into the eyes obscuring vision, but I can't recall in the many thousand MMA matches I've watched where a doctor has stopped the fight purely on blood loss alone. Blood loss can't exactly be measured in real time, but in regards to the Kos/Lytle fight, he literally stained multiple square feet of the canvas in blood, and even though he only absorbed some average GnP, he was woozy as hell when back on his feet. It was the first card my then GF watched (after me convincing her it was actually pretty safe as I was doing MMA at the time), and she was horrified.

Sacrifices to the JBGs come at a price apparently.

No human has unlimited fights like that. Its amazing Tony has lasted as long as he has and at his age but he should give it up. He has had a career made out of those types of fights. concussions nearly every fights. bleeding every fight. It's scary shit.

ive always thought the josh thompson fight was the best Tony ever looked in the cage. I know dos anjos was the bigger win for tony's resume, but josh was a legit vet who was good for a scrap with anyone and tony ran through him like it was some scripted movie type shit.

Also pressures people to not post interesting videos because they don't want to spend 15 min writing cliffs

Great stuff actually.
