Does Ribovics not have punching power or something? It's insane how much he punches his opponents yet goes to decision. Kirk, Zellhuber, Nasrat, Brener he must have landed 300-400 significant strikes to the head across those 4 fights and all went to the cards. Don't think he even scored a knockdown. Had Zellhuber on skates many times but we just saw 39yo Michael Johnson put him on his ass.

Yeah he lands pretty clean and I swear some of those shots he's thrown should've put guys out. Brener has a hell of a chin, but it's sort of strange.

Most that throw that much don't put power into it, but Ribovics does and still can't get the finish. Oh well it makes awesome fights, so I'll keep tuning in.

I think Khanzat wins that one

I look forward to the belt being defended once a year if he does. Bleh.

Yeah. Once a year might even be generous

Rebecki's got enough scar tissue for all of us.

 

[richardjohnson]

Has Rebecki fought since his war with Orolbai?

 

[xhaydenx]

I'd pick any other those guys other your keyboard warrior bitch ass that couldn't hang with a 0-20 women's straw weight, gtfoh

No idea what you're stupid ass was trying to say there. You have a rage stroke or some shit? Hope you're okay, buddeh haha.

It's the UFC these days, bro. Hardly anyone gets hurt with punches now.

DDP has to make it to R3

That’s the thought but DDP will be stronger than anyone he has fought. Rooting for DDP feels odd but if he can make weight. He’s a fucking durable and he throws like Keith Jardine. Random and not clinical.

 

[Mmmmmmma1234]

Yes. The UFC still having a $50K bonus system is archaic.

What's it been 15 years of 50k/4 with no increase

 

[CC27]

great fight. Get Ribovics out of the apex. Do him vs Joel Alvarez, stick it on a PPV main card opening bout and let them entertain the fans with a banger.

Chris "Naughty by Nature" Duncan

 

[Bologna Nips]

Elvis stock went up in a loss

Unfortunately, he still doesn't mean shit to Chuck D.

What's it been 15 years of 50k/4 with no increase

I think they even went up to $75K at one point and brought it back down.

 

[Ares Black]

Yes. The UFC still having a $50K bonus system is archaic.

It's embarrassing

 

[MMA4Life]

They got Dricus lifting weights in the wilderness next to Lions. Fucking hilarious.

Dricus will win

 

[BroRogan]

I look forward to the belt being defended once a year if he does. Bleh.

Dana has to tell the Donald to take him off any no fly lists more often then and borrow these Abu Dhabi scales

War DDP! I am a real African Fight for the rights of every man

 

[AmonTobin]

For all those tuning in and waiting patiently: Here comes the Rebecki blood bath.

DDP has grown on me. I used to not like him because of his herky jerky style, but it's grown on me too. He's the most cocksure motherfucker I've seen on the mic without looking like a conceited prick as well. Not easy to do.

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Brener and Rebecki are the reasons I tuned in

Rebecki takes too much damage but always weathers it. I think he grinds this one out.
