Moments in fights where a fighter looked like he just accepted defeat

[Rvd Slmr]

Does Pennington asking her corner to stop the fight count?

 

[OverCoronavirus Pressure]

Also Pat Barry against Cro Cop

That fight killed me, I like Barry, good guy, respectful.

The mutual respect and even friendship displayed was great.

One of those fights I didn't want to see either lose

 

[Bacco]

I'm great fan of him, but Shogun vs Jones

 

[Lawblaw]

 

[IndyCovaHart]

Liddell in his first fight against Couture.

 

[mikehunt]

 

[Jonny Ninja]

I remember watching this live thinking cowboy just acknowledged defeat

Any other?

In all fairness he took a fckin beating in the 1st. He was probably still trying to recover

Diaz vs McGregor is the one that springs to my mind, as soon as he was hurt on the feet he looked for a way out

 

[0verlord]

Looked at the title and thought the same thing.

 

[Übermacht]

 

[Fergelmince]

 

[Davey Crockett]

 

[NorrinRadd]

RR vs Nunes Comes to mind. Especially, after the first Jab was landed. RR knew she was already done.

Can't forget BJ vs Joe Daddy. He knew he was done after that first Round.

I thought Ronda knew the score at the weigh-in.

Before the Holm fight as well.

[SpongeJoshSquareCheck]

Don't get me wrong it's still the most intense and badass moment I've ever seen in MMA

[streetscience]

I remember watching this live thinking cowboy just acknowledged defeat

Any other?

I didn't think that was accepting defeat, I thought he was just responding to the double middle fingers...like "yeah, I get it you need to have that animosity to fight."

 

[Dana's Moonface]

Which moment?

End of round 3 against Khabib - only business

Nate when he took step back then made an attempt at panicwrestling. He looked dejected before the feeble takedown attempt.

 

[Fluffernutter]

Gif of Hardy's illegal knee.
