PBP UFC on ESPN 56: Lewis vs. Nascimento Official PBP Discussion: Sat. 5 / 11 at 4pm ET

I mean, it was definitely a single tap. Whether or not he was intending to or not. Whether you want to argue it needs to be 2 or more is a different argument, but technically dosen't need to be.

 

[Neck&Neck]

Boy is parched

 

[Axe720]

Beat Slava like a jobba

 

[Psychojoe86]

There was no tap. Ref should have waited a couple seconds to make sure he really was tapping. Oh well. Fight was so one sided it basically doesn’t matter.

 

[Substance Abuse]

Honestly Chase Hooper has looked phenomenal in his last 2 fights.

He has. His striking has looked a lot better and his grappling is always good. He needs to work on that ground and pound, but he's definitely a lot stronger at 155.

 

[usernamee]

HAHA

A Mr Hands reference!!!

 

[dmwalking]

nah, that wasn’t a tap. I’ve been around Bjj for too long. One tap doesn’t count. Let that mother fucker tap frantically so there is no doubt. I mean, Hooper dominated. But the ref goofed.

 

[CrimsonFan]

I would have been ok if the ref stopped the fight before that submission. The other guy just had no answer on the ground and couldn't stop from getting mounted and beat up

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

Nah, he's looked much better since moving to LW.

no he hasn't. he's the worst striker in the promotion and his grappling is gimmicky and subpar. this will be the peak of his career

 

[Ares Black]

borscht with the can grappling

Nah, his scrambling was actually really good, but Hooper was just way better.

 

[helax]

Parched though

 

[ForeverYoung]

Not a bad stoppage at all. You phantom tap them single tap like that in bjj and theyre stopping it every time.

 

[GreenGorilla]

Chase Hooper is the Michael Cera of the UFC.
Love the kid.

 

[king hippo]

that reference...

 

[evergreenrider]

Hitting em with that deep WA beastiality lore lol

 

[Paynebringer]

Nice work Hooper, I didn't expect that kind of dig fighting...

 

[DiddlyDoodly]

This fight could have been stopped 3 times prior to the "tap"

 

[WaylonMercy5150]

 

[Poirierfan]

Good win by Hooper. Fighters need to watch out when Hooper's balls finally drop though, that voice. Lol

 

[BigGucciSosa]

Do NOT Google his nickname
