Diego, yes he should get Sub of the night. Knockout of the night, i agree, dodson. however, multiple Fight of the nights, i just don’t like it. It should only be one. Also i think the Tony vs edwards fight would’ve made fight of the night.
the brandao/bermudez fight was insane. i do semi-agree though, if maybe both bermudez and brandao had not landed those 2 huge punches maybe it wouldnt have been that way. but it was an exciting pace and the way that diego rolled for the armbar so fluidly after being rocked like he had been seconds before it was very very impressive.
What are you talking about “multiple fight of the nights”… 1 fight wins fight of the night and both fighters get the bonus. Diego and Dennis were in the same fight
Mayhem Miller needs to get with the program boxing 101, He looked like a novice,really bad-like being in the minors compared to Bispings major league striking
Agreed
his striking has always been awful,he still has the heart of a lion
since when is pillow hands major those were some sad sad punches.
Burmudez looked great last night. I went in there and looked WAY better than he did at TUF. I think he provided the most challenge for Diego out of anyone in the house. Diego is a BEAST.
realy wished that miller won the fight, but his striking was awful!
Miller looked like crap and i dont think he should be aloud to fight in the UFC again. If he cant get past the count and all he brings to the table is BJJ, thats not enough to hang with the big dogs! Diego Brandao needs to hook up with Ronda Rousey and have babies! That was a sick armbar!
I hate Bisping but don’t discount his skills. The only times he has really lost are title eliminators. He’s quite amazing at pulling off wins and has been strong in the UFC
Tony vs Edwards was fight of the night for sure. Whats going on here?
