Was that legal? Happened so fast.

Shin to the face of a grounded opponent


Fuck UFC rules

Yeah, it’s clearly legal in the replay.

 

[Carrotman23]

Wow technically wasn't grounded . Nice lol . Nice KO

 

[don't ask]

OMG I just had a PrideFCgasm

UFC card can suck now, the gods have been fed.

 

[Slaikkaaja]

Yeah, it’s clearly legal in the replay.

Pretty nice

 

[don't ask]

I don't think that second knee came off the mat until after Khalidov launched himself. That was insane.

How would you rate the event overall?

 

[Slaikkaaja]

Well that was fun, nice stadium too. Good night Sherbros.

How would you rate the event overall?

8.5/10 would be 10 if not that lw fight

 

[don't ask]

I really loved it. Up there with a solid ONE or Bellator event. Definitely better than the average UFC event these days.

I've officially become a KSW fan.

Solid 7/10, would shitpost about it again.

Any ideas what they're suspecting? My first thought is that Salah's the one who benefits from this.

I don't know, I don't want to blindly shit on the guy, but maybe he tried to get his show money, while knowing he wouldn't be able to perform.
It's quite rare to have a fighter pull out 15 minutes before the fight...
It sucks for Salah because, while he got the title and probably the money, when you're in smaller orgs you want to show yourself, increase your record, etc.
Although I think he's already very well known by the bigger orgs. Being a double champ in KSW at his age is quite impressive

Ah, yeah, that makes a lot of sense. When you said "shady" I was thinking something a lot more corrupt since (I think) he was the defending champ.

I've never seen him fight before and after hearing you rave about him I'm really disappointed I won't get to tonight. Any fights of his I should look up on youtube?

 

[Sasha]

Anyway, very nice event, although I'm disappointed that Salahdine didn't fight. Switching to UFC !
Lmao it seems like a training session without the audience. That really sucks, couldn't they find a better place for FN ?

 

[TorontoTO]

How would you rate the event overall?

10/10, shame the BW and LW bouts were called off, but it was a great event besides the MW title bout

 

[helax]

That card was top notch
