Media Was this the last true just bleed rock em sock em fight?

no?

Hooker Porier exists???

No brawls since 2013 tho

yea

that makes sense
 
Hooker vs Poirier
Hooker vs Barboza (high profile? Slugfest or just murder? Maybe, maybe not)
Gaethje vs Chandler

LW division has had some bangers.

But it’s kinda rare these days for both guys just really stand and bang!
 
Sanchez vs melendez was another good one but much longer with no finish

I laughed my arse off when they announced this fight, I just knew what it was going to be, a gift from the Just Bleed gods and so it was, fun fight!

Diego is a complete can, that fight was mostly one way traffic only lasting because he could take a punch but it was Meléndez landing 90% of the shots.
 
I remember Diego dropped him
Yeah, I’m not saying he landed nothing but he was a punching bag for the vast majority of that. fight.

Even in that gif, you can see Meléndez landing, and then blocking and rolling with most of what’s coming back at him, while Diego just stood with his face out and bit down on his mouth piece and ate it. Still impressive that he had the balls and the chin to go the distance, but that fight was pretty one-sided from what I remember.

looking back, can you believe gilbert earned a title fight with that performance? how does one get a title shot off a win against sanchez? I guess the fight with benson was close enough to justify giving him another crack with an exciting win I guess. but in reality it's kinda silly.

Yeah, not exactly deserving of a title shot but like you said, he arguably beat Benson, so it wasn’t that bad.
