The first time in 8 fights that DC gets a finish by strikes...

[Unheralded Truth]

Yup. Last time it happened was against no camp-Cummins straight from Starbucks.

So much for the Volkan hype, lol.

Congrats to DC!

Yeah, LHW is in a pretty rough spot.

It looked like Cormier could have been punched him harder.

 

[MilesAbove]

To be fair, he pretty much finished it by submission in the first. So it's like a halvsies.

 

[Elmonstro1]

Agreed nowhere near the hype given

I think he has an odd style where he never risks himself to GnP. Some guys twist their bodies and use torsion, but DC gets into a position where he doesn't generate max power but he's safe from retaliation or losing that position.

It's unrealistic that DC was going "easy" on him. Same thing people said when he was against Anderson Silva.
