PBP UFC 318 - Holloway vs. Poirier 3 Preliminary Card PBP Discussion: Sat 7/19 at 6pm ET

Is it just me or is Oliveira landing a bunch of low blows?

 

[Gigaton Punch]

Kyler really has nothing in the tank
I mean this Oliveira is walking in flat footed with his hands completely down and winding up punches from a mile away and he's not throwing shit back

 

[SKYNET]

Don't think i've ever seen someone pressuring while hands down the whole fight

Maybe Jiri? thats about it

 

[Bradillac]

And it's winning him this one pretty decisively.

Better get warmed up, you might be doing a lot of this

Nothing has changed since the first round. Dude still looks amateur, it’s a good thing he has power.

 

[volcom5]

Oliviera is fighting like prime Figuredo right now just walking with his hands down and everything he lands is impactful

Come on man….. Figueredo has technique.

Oliviera reminds of a rookie Ngannou with the way he’s throwing his punches.

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Bobby Green?

I'd kinda agreed with him, but you are correct

 

[linvillegorge]

I usually just roll my eyes and say if a guy can make the weight then he's not too big for the weight class when people start crying "weight bully" but this Oliveira dude basically sucks, he just looks like a guy who's two weight classes bigger than the dudes he's fighting.

 

[wrb]

What is the point of Olivera's uppercut, he just slowly throws it and leaves it hanging?

 

[RampageFaction]

How far can Oliviera go with this style?

 

[MMA4Life]

Vini if he throws kicks it always helps he just has no respect for Kyler

 

[Gang Sign Luke]

It's nice Joe Rogan isn't doing commentary. He really brings out the worst in DC. It feels like an actual sports commentary team when he's gone.

 

[ExitLUPin]

You got me there I forgot about his robbery inflated ranking where he was beaten into retirement after.

Took 3 years though. And Kelvin win wasn't a robbery. Dave Tirelli who scores it 30-27 Kelvin was on crack. Literally every media outlet had it Darren too. He shut Kelvin out and outstruck him. The only question is if it was 30-27 or 29-28 Till he easily won the first 2 rounds. He outstruck Kelvin in the 3rd too but Kelvin got 2 TDs.

 

['Rocky']

Someone tell Phillips there is this thing called "Checking leg kicks"

 

[jspn]

Is it just me or is Oliveira landing a bunch of low blows?

Kyler is gender neutral. maybe he is unaffected lmao

 

[contrail]

Oliveira is cooked by anyone in the top 10

 

[MMA4Life]

High kick!

 

[Poirierfan]

Manlet Olives is tough but his technique is shit.

 

[Mask Of Winters]

This fight is so bad it's good.

 

[Siver!]

Kyler has no-sold some pretty fucking brutal-looking leg kicks, hot damn!

He's had his foot planted on plenty of them and taken them right through the knee ligaments.
