No, THIS was the best fight of 2020 so far

[AimedWithV]

Because it involved everything: Striking, BJJ, wrestling.
And was absolutely back and forth.
And had a finish. And had 3 rounds.

Change my mind.

Poirier vs Hooker

Was great back and forth, but was less action on the mat...
and honestly...were you THAT excited over the course of the fight?

 

[GIBLERTBAPTISTA]

I agree, this is my FOTY

no

FOTY and rd 2 is easily ROTY

Back and forth, had it all as well with wrestling and BJJ. There wasnt much sturiking for Santos/Glover. Glover got torched anytime he stood. It was mostly a guround clinic.

Dustin was down 0-2 and rallied back to win 3 sturaight and win 48-47. Only a handful of times a fighter has come back from a deficit like that to win on the cards.

Both fighters hurt numerous times. Hooker looked like he was dying backstage too

OK my mind tends to be changed.

Maybe you're right. I'll rewatch and will try to forget my dislike of Hooker's standup style

The Glover/Santos fight? Lol no. The little bit of striking it had was in the first minute before Glover got the takedown.

Sometimes I think that the people here only watch the main events. This is nowhere close to FOTY

So what's the right answer?

It's still Zhang vs Joanna dude, whether you like it or not.

At this point in the year, I don't see anything one upping it.

 

[E Undead]

So what's the right answer?

Emmett-Burgos, Felder-Hooker, Price-Luque, there were a lot of far better fights this year.

 

[VitoCorleone]

This is FOTY and we should stop to count right now

Best thread of 2020 so far.

This year? I haven't put much thought into it but Zhang vs. JJ far exceeds this.

 

[Coolkid666]

I always root for Old Man Glover and this fight had me on the edge of my seat lmao havent felt that from any fight in awhile
