@HHJ partying hard rn, lol

hamas supporter!

Little taps on the calves all night is all Poatan landed.

Meanwhile he got dropped twice basically and got his wits back. Strange performance, he didn't let his hands go.

Can't see anyone beating Ank, the mix of wrestling threat and KO power is too scary for the Western fighters.

Got dropped twice basically? He didn’t get dropped once…. He got hurt in the second and also he hurt Ank at the start of the 5th. Those little taps were still more than what Ankalaev did.

 

[mangokush]

Guess Chama time is no really over....

 

[GtehMVP]

YES lmao easily too. he came forward throwing punches the whole round while alex ran away and when that got boring, ank had to hold him in place to be able to hit him. majority of mma fans either don't know how to score a fight or think the commentators are an accurate representation of what's happening in the cage, rather than their eyes.

Ank did nothing in round 5 but stall. It's not Alex did a ton, but unless the cards say otherwise, he landed more. I think that Trumps a failed td "attempt."

 

[ExitLUPin]

This was a better result for Alex. Trilogy with Ank very possible. It's a winnable fight. Aspinall would have murked him.

 

[NoSmilez]

I thought Alex would move to HW if he lost but he is slow even by HW standards. I think he is just aging and the constant sparring isn’t good for him.

Dana backstage raging over Ankalaev as soon as he gets a moment to himself:

 

[dreden1982]

You’re still losing when you get held against the cage for 90% of the round

That clearly wasn't even the dude's point

 

[ShadowRun]

Dana does not have any North American cash cow champions anymore

Besides undisputed goat Jones

 

[DJ_DuPlaisir]

Sal D'amato...

 

[HHJ]

@HHJ your sinister plan to get Jiri GOAT another title shot with Ank fuckery worked, grats.

 

[Gamboal]

This is the one time I'm completely in favor of an immediate rematch when a title changes hands.

He'll get knocked out cold in a rematch I'm convinced, he's nearly 38 yrs old he can't hang with a prime bull like Ank.

I say this as a massive Pereira fan, they need to keep him away from anyone with even a vague threat of wrestling ability.

 

[gentel]

Pereira really didn't have much of a jab, that was pretty noticeable how Ankalaev had such a long lead hand and Pereira's was right near his face

 

[fica]

i have no idea people are upset alex lost guy is so called champ he should bring intencity and initiative and fight reason mag did 4th round on cage is because alex was always backing down moving away so he decided to go for take down

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

Ank did nothing in round 5 but stall. It's not Alex did a ton, but unless the cards say otherwise, he landed more. I think that Trumps a failed td "attempt."

ank landed multiple punches to the head and body, and landed more in the clinch. pereira ran away tapping his leg. stop fuckin talkin to me.

 

[Mask Of Winters]

Welp, of all the UFC main events ever, that was definitely one of them.

 

[rorschach51]

@HHJ your dream came true

In all seriousness though, congrats bro. Now we just gotta hope this guy isn't boring in every title defense.

 

[RichardHarrow]

This was a better result for Alex. Trilogy with Ank very possible. It's a winnable fight. Aspinall would have murked him.

I think Ank does even better next time.

 

[Sasha]

I think you mean terrible scorecard but yes

What ? No it’s robbery Jesus, the cult leader.

Edit : you know, the thief ?
