I don’t mess with needles man.
Whatever this song is >>>> Drake. I’m back for Stipe.
Cormier should have never been cutting to 205. I think that all goes back to Cain being in his stable
It was pretty blatant but I don't think it played into the outcome at all. Cruz did a great job of explaining how DC was setting up the clinch/underhook battle for just that moment when he dipped the shoulder out the backdoor and hooked him to death.
What an amazing win.
Jon Jones is gonna be found OD'd tomorrow morning because he should be getting this Brock PPV money and instead a guy he starched twice is getting it.
That’s called karma.
What’s crazy is DC predicted this finish. In one of the earlier press conferences he said Stipe drops his hands out of the clinch and he’d be read to knock him out.
Stipe is my favorite fighter, but how can you not love DC?
Not a fan of the wwe stuff afterwards though that was clearly scripted.
I liked the WWE stuff better after they explained DC is a huge fan. Seemed like a fantasy camp kinda thing for him.
He really said this before the fight? Because he definitely said it in the post-fight interview. Why would a fighter publicize one of his opponent's weak spots? That seems counter intuitive.
And gals too
Too bad DC is so old, he's pretty good at the schtick.
Say what you want about Lesnar and his fighting ability, but he definitely makes things more interesting. My guess is DC will just try and wear him out and toy with him like Floyd did with McGregor.
This perspective makes me ok with it too. The idea of DC getting a fantasy camp experience made me smile. Great guy. I hope we still see him in an analyst role after the fighting part of his career is done.
Yeah, remember he went to Lesnar outside the ring at one point and seemed to have a strategy discussion? And when Lesnar shoved him you can see some boyish joy on his face before he snaps back to character.
The dude has been a warrior and fearless for the company forever. If he wants to live out a boyhood dream for a bit, it’s awesome. You could see even Dana cracking up for a bit too.
It was weird tho. It was like a back hand slap right at the eyes. I can't say it was intentional, but most eye pokes happen in more normal exchanges.
I think you have to. I'm a big Bones guy but I never hated DC. He seems nice and honest, like a really big kid. Actually kids aren't as nice as DC. A dog maybe.
Really. These things get ingrained though. Like, Jones told DC about the head kick to his face. In this exchange Stipe's arm couldn't have been lower and more irrelevant. He was worried about the other side while DC was setting up his right. Telling him about it may not have helped.
Really? I was going to say neither are good at it, but maybe that's why I've never been interested in WWE wrestling.
Right on with being ingrained. Whenever I point out basic technique flaws here I can’t be the only one to notice it and yet fighters keep on doing it. It’s very hard to train over instinct and accumulated muscle memory. Plus, you never know if your opponent is being earnest or just putting ideas in your head.
I noticed it at the start but DC's arms look so much bigger at HW, yeah his core is obvs bigger but he was bigger everywhere.
Dana said in the post fight that Lesnar has been in the testing protocol for a week and has to wait six months, so that puts a DC-Lesnar fight in early 2019.
DC said he'll only take big fights in the interim. He mentioned Jones, maybe Gustafson or Stipe, and then Lesnar, and then he's retiring on his 40th bday on March 20.
