Depressing main card

Japanese mma striker getting taken down and subbed easily should be the most expected outcome of any fight
It was definitely a very likely outcome
 
Volkov vs Gane is one of the biggest robberies on MMA history, Gane knew he lost when he tried to run away in shame when the score card was read
It was a bad decision, but the robbery claims being thrown about are overblown. I think this is probably just a good example of cageside judges having a bad view of the action compared to people watching on a screen, something that happens a lot more frequently than most people acknowledge. A lot of action is obscured with the cage-level view.
 

I wouldn't say that I'm sad about it...just that many of the fights played out unexpectedly and there was some shit ref and judge work (which is no surprise).
 
These hype jobs all shit the bed. Pantoja was the only one who came to play.

Judging sucks and it's not because of the view from their front row seat. lol
 
I’m happy Bryce got the win. Especially since he’s coming off Emmett sending him into the seizure realm. Kron getting flatlined was sweet too.
 
The one fight that truly did suck was volkov vs gane

it seemed so sophomorish

Bryce made it up and then some with truly mind-blowing body slamming technique Id never seen.

Get ready for everyone and their mom trying to do that one all of a sudden.

Seen that been done in fights from 15-20 yrs ago
 
The card looked great on paper, if we ignore the Gracie guy. At one point during Shavkat - Garry I was checking the weather app and seeing how it will rain soon, went outside to remove chairs from the garden. Came back and they were pretty much in the same position against the cage. Depressing main card.
 
I think I'm done with the sport tbh. I just find myself bored more often than not.
I've been saying it for a while now. Mma is the only sport I've seen where fans complain there is TOO MUCH of it
 
My only complaint is starting the card at 9pm. The co-main and main events I'm always half sleeping for.
 
DHC looking better than ever was good enough for me lol.

I had a feeling Shav v Garry was going to be really competitive and a technical fight. Garry is underrated and they were sparring partners both seemingly having respect for each other. It was even more methodical than I thought it would be but was still decent enough entertainment wise

I thought there was going to be a shift in FLW with Asakura joining since Pantoja has been around so long and he’s been in some wars in his recent fights. But damn, Pantoja looked amazing.
 
You need bad fights, so that you know when you are witnessing a great fight. If every single fight was a Chandler/insert opponent we would get bored eventually. Palette cleansers are needed and we can all agree our palettes have been fully cleansed after last night.
