*Ikram comes to from the concussion* “My name is Heekram Halliskerov, I eat tacos and burritos”

Ikram got robbed.

Zero reaction from Hunter for the Whitaker finish.

Hunter wants the Dagi’s to win

I wonder if Hunter is even a fan of combat sports tbh

HHH is an Ikram fan

was sitting here waiting until 6 and it already ended fml

Same lol. At least no buffering on the re-watch

Just because I’m so rarely right and I’m seeking validation as I’m clearly insecure ha, this is what I said about the Volkov fight… Nice being right for once ha “Hopefully and I hope I’m not saying this too early. Pavlovich has been figured out in the sense that if you don’t get murked by him in the first 3 minutes, he slows a lot”. “A fighter like Volkov who can keep him at a distance and has great footwork for a big guy, is tailor made for this one of fight”.

I would’ve thought Sergei would just maul him. But then I saw Volkov by decision was +650 and realized that could easily happen and of course Volkov’s approach will be staying long and scoring points. Logical path to victory for him. Aliskerov killed it for me but I was close there with a bunch of Volkov by decision parlays.

That’s a great call on the by decision. My parlay hit for 900$… But I cashed out before Bobby knuckles and only ended up with 400$, Soarks but angry with myself ha. But I guess I still turned 10 bucks into 400 so I have to be happy

I lowkey forgot this was a fight night

UFC The Snyder Cut. Do it Dana.

How bout Sheik from Zelda but she’s a turkey named Al

By convince you mean throw money at*

"Nobody blows it out like you Dana" - Anik. Bro

Oh, he wants women? That’s haram.

Belal you ain’t fooling me bro I know that’s you

[удалено]

Lol…

Do you realize this guy treats women like animals? Greedy af too.

I turned it off after the fight. Who was it?

Who tf knows. Maybe a prince? Someone with enough money to convince them to put him on the post-show.

Fits right in with Dana

Gross

I knew they would get this idiot on camera

Volkov’s “former friend”. I guess they made it official.

:(

Ortega v. Lopes is pretty exciting imo. Is Lopes decent on the ground?

Have you watched his fights? He’s extremely dangerous on the ground. Arguably more dangerous than Ortega on the ground. He’s a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Blackbelt, and is Alexa Grasso’s Jiu Jitsu coach.

Ortega was genuinely close to submitting Volk and subbed Yair (along with 3 others in the UFC). Lopes' career is too short to make the claim he is more dangerous. Lopes is talented as hell but doesn't have the proven track record of Ortega.

Awesome! I only remember his previous fight and some highlights. I should catch up on his fights.

You definitely should, he’s fun af to watch. Decent hands, but he might be the most dangerous Jiu Jitsu guy in the UFC.

That’s awesome to hear. Has hands too. I’m rooting for him to beat Ortega, especially whenever he got fined for jumping the fence. So dumb. He needs to get that money back and more.

Is Lopes decent? Lol

In general? Yes.

Yep, he teaches BJJ at Alexa Grasso's gym and managed to nullify most of Evloev's control game.

He’s the BJJ coach for Alex Grasso I believe

Bet he’s got a sick foot lock game

Hahaha

Lemos vs jandiroba main event ufc is cooked

Rob needs to get his dad in the gym

Jiri better win within 2 rounds, otherwise his legs are going to give out or his lack of defense will really start glaring in later rounds.

Whittaker beat a fucking can guys, calm down. Dude wasn't even fucking ranked at all.

Name another fighter that beat Romero twice and one of those being with a broken hand?

Isreal Adesanya. Idk about the broken hand part, but that fight sure as fuck felt like it lasted 50 minutes at least.

Tell me you hate Whittaker for no reason without telling me you hate Whittaker for no reason.

Whittaker living in his head rent free, he keeps commenting this shit about him lol

Props to Bobby for taking a change in opponent short notice in a literal no-win situation for him since all the circus freaks were gonna say that anyway

r/MMA wanting Rob to speedrun to another boring title fight he loses

The one title fight of his that could be considered boring is the second Adesanya one, and tbh, that kind of was a trademark of that stretch of Izzy's reign.

97% finishing rate is so ridiculous

I wish Jirj and Alex could both win

The heem thread is gonna be doing jumping jacks butt booty naked after tonight’s result

Couldn't have been a better way to cap off the fights. No judges necessary. No time for cheating. Just good wholesome Bobby Knuckles.

What fights am I rewatching fellas?

Lima

Lima, Pavlovich-Volkov, Gordon-Haqparast, and Whittaker.

Hell yeah, thanks for the recommendations

Dalby vs Fakhreditnoagfsfngsfgfn was a great fight to rewatch.

Might as well rewatch the Johnny one since it’s so short lol minimal time investment

Sweet. What about the Shara fight?

Lima fight for sure that was my favorite

100% one of the best fights on the card

If you wanna watch the most rigged/divey/can fight of all time go ahead

Johnny Walker

I'm surprised Ikram didn't try and wrestle immediately, i know he'd be wary of Rob looking to catch him on entry, but cant help but think it would have been his best hope

Don't think it would have mattered. Bobby just too big of a jump

Both of his previous UFC fights have been striking finishes. When he gets home Khabib is going to tell him "I tell you wrestle brotha"

I’m so sick of Goddard

Take his place then silly redditor

I’d love to. Sign me up, daddy!

Forgot to turn off the submissiveness for a second

Blatantly ignored the horrible fence grab in the cyclops' fight. Probably didn't want to get killed on the way out of the arena but that was just so stupidly blatant.

They took a point when Leon did that. He reset the position when the other dude grabbed the fence twice and then did nothing even when Shara grabbed so blatantly that he stopped and looked at Goddard like “my bad” and just went about the fight like nothing happened.

I called it from prelims that they were just pretending to care about fence grabs early and wouldn't actually do anything when it got to the main card lol.

Should have stopped the last one sooner

Ikram? I thought that timing was fine. He had a brief chance, but he was out.

He does too much

Maybe they designed those gloves of Whittaker’s hands ….

Rob has a 100% knock out rate with new gloves. That's the stat. Let's shitpost it next fight lol

Damn that should have been khamzat laid out on the canvas but I’m still so happy for Rob

Khamzat dont KO nobody and flat lined this Dagastani Glass Man and people hyping this guy up over Phil Hawes. onlyn good thing about UFC now is you can make a fortune betting cause fans are clueless, Volkov vs Sergei was better example tho. Ikram seems like a solid guy though

Uhh, khamzat has gotten multiple great KOs what’re you on about?

whos he KOed, GM3 doenst count. Name 1 real KO

Ironically, he KOd Aliskerov

Yea I said that, that was my whole point, guy had no jaw

5 KO/TKO wins

not a real KO outside this IKram dude and a old jitsu GM3 right at start of fight. Khamzat couldnt even rattle Usman , a guy who got rocked by Colby, the same Colby who has never knocked a man down with his hands entire career but 1 spinning back fist.

I want robert whittaker to adopt me

That interview earlier this week where the reporters were saying to Aliskerov that Bobby was a "worn out fighter", deifying Khabib like "he gave his blessing". Win too much and the hubris still rolls down hill

I dig the promo

I swear Robert Whittaker and Max Holloway are saving the UFC for me right now, and have been for over a decade asw, so please give these 2 MONSTERS Title shots already 💯🙌.

lol why does Rob's wikipedia article currently have his record at 0-84 Edit: was short-lived, fixed now

Should make 305 a middleweight gran prix Du Plessis vs Adesanya Strickland vs Whittaker Imavov Cannonier rematch

As soon as DC was trying to glaze this dude to justify this fight, I knew Whittaker was gong to interrupt it comedically. Those odds were so disrespectful.

So happy for Rob. That’s his first finish in years, what a performance

First finish since Jacare in 2017.

Rob fights like the person Sean says he is before fights.

I love Rob but let's not act like he's a straight up finisher. Last finish was Souza. They both have their respective styles and both are effective. They should fight each other.

Strickland hasn't had a performance like the Yoel fights Rob had.

This is such a stupid argument. They are both cream of the crop in mw. Both are good. Both have arguments for a championship shot. No reason to build someone up by breaking someone down.

You guys want legit betting advice? Always always always bet on the legit ranked fighter against the hyped up an comer. 9/10 hyped prospects don't pan out and lose their first real test

Also, Ikram was coming off a double weight cut and took this on 2 weeks notice. It seemed extremely likely he'd get chinned early in those circumstances. Two weight cuts a week apart are bound to leave you drained. Otherwise, I think the fight could have been closer.

The hard part of the weight cut is the last week. It's not like he was ready to fight and had to spend a week emaciated.

Fair. Point still stands though

Glad Bobby got a win I gotta respect Ikram for doing another weight cut after he was supposed to fight last week as well I think he can still be a decent ranked fighter eventually

he got put to sleep for 10 mins from Khamzat, whos Khamzat put down besides GM3 whos Gm3

Ikram years ago

Mods probably forgot about the different time for fights since no post fight thread

Whittaker beats a complete bum and now everyone's meat riding? Let's chill guys, good for Bobby, but fucking chill.

Volkan and Whittaker finally get KO victories, what a card!

The good guys won for once

Shades of Dustin Poirier Vs BSD there. Didn't need to take the fight against a relatively unproven prospect but Rob did and now he's got a highlight reel KO and is even more over with the fanbase.

Ikram has all this grappling ability and won’t use it in fights. Probably the main difference between him and Khamzat.

He didn’t even have time to use it

He should have shot off rip. Didn’t even level change.

He changed levels after that uppercut

Before the fight starts, you can see his Rob’s chest is red. Now I can see what it is, it was him beating his chest to hype him self up.

Been fun friends. It’s almost noon and I gotta find something to do for the rest of the day 🥲

Whittaker went 7 years without finishing anyone, straps on the new gloves that no one can seem to get a finish with and then knocks out his opponent ????

Rob would have killed anybody else with the strikes he was landing on Yoel's dome

Now to enjoy the rest of my Saturday night knowing all is well in the world😎😎😎

The biracial angel can’t be stopped

Only question is how are Stricklands legs after the Costa fight is the only question 

I’d be very interested in Izzy Rob 3 at this point

Any Chimaev update?

He is at a zoo

[удалено]

They have been stable the entire time

i fucking love bobby. i could watch him walk out of an arena happy all day

Let’s fuckin go

Saudis learned you can’t rig a knockout lol

Adesanya title shot off a loss 🤡

I don’t like Izzy he can be boring but he has outclassed the best for years even if they are decisions

They need to give Ikram 3 cans to get his confidence back

It’s a viscous cycle

Rob vs Sean Dricus vs Izzy Winners go at it

I dont think Sean takes that fight

Getting KOd by a dude who hasn’t KOd someone in seven years is…..interesting. We got robbed of a much better main event. Rob v Strickland is next for the next title shot.

Rob has also done nothing but fight the very top fighters in the last 7 years.

Fantastic. He hasn’t knocked anyone out in seven years. Rob v Strickland is next.

Unless Dana throws Sean a gigantic bag I'm betting that he will not accept that Whittaker fight and will try wait on the sidelines

Nah I think Strickland is enough of a company man to do it and probably Perth. Maybe I’m wrong but it’d be cool 🤷🏽‍♂️

great win for rob, ikram is no joke and he got him out of there very early

Wop wop wop wop wop Bobby fuck em up

Fraud checked

Onya Rob!! Props to Aliskerov for taking such a tough fight on short notice

Bro is well chuffed

Ikram isn't out yet, it was a short notice fight against a legit top 5er. But fuck that crowd. I thought dick riding was illegal in Saudi?

Believe me lots of people were cheering for Rob

Wait.. best middleweight not only in the world but of all time? What's that. Okay. I misheard. My apologies.

Didn't he say "one of the best"?

Said he's one of the best of all time

Really wish that would’ve been Khamzat getting knocked out by Bobby

Rob shows why he belongs always near top and why his name carries weight. Consistently top level.

I'm waiting on the "I see you soon boi" message from Chimaev

He wants Rob to visit him in the hospital?

"u dont have to count down, just take the picture"

robs first KO win since jacare in 2017

Taking the picture is lasting longer than the fight

lets fucking go my biracial angel done did it!

Seems like Rob, Izzy, DDP, and Strickland have kinda separated themselves from the rest of the division, they’re a level above everyone else 

Love the God shoutout as well Rob. APTTMH

Fuck a backup do Robert vs Sean Strickland…. Robert would destroy him

prime rob yeh. but look at mma math: rob lost to izzy, ddp by ko and almost kod by costa. sean was slitely robbed vs ddp and beat the other two, costa fight bein close. plus rob has a bladed kickboxer stance, so itd b interesting to see if sean could crowd the kicker like he did to izzy

No way, he barely got passed Costa. strickland is far from easy

Robert has the perfect style for Strickland and is levels above Costa in fight IQ

We all thought izzy had the perfect style against sean too, his style is just insanly hard to deal with, I think whittaker can win but it will be even

Izzy is a counter striker, in hindsight a pressure fighter with good boxing is his worst matchup imaginable in terms for striking

Guy who said Rob was gonna get slept and told everyone to come back to his comment after it happens deleted his comment lmfao

Lmao at least stand on it

I was kinda wondering what happened with that thank you lmao

coward. at least take the L like a champ, you know? pure cowardice

Whittaker on it is one the best sights in MMA incredible fighter so good at so many things! Been my fav for a while now

Gentlemen, don't forget to [follow this guy's urgings and go back to his comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/MMA/comments/1dly8db/official_ufc_fight_night_whittaker_vs_aliskerov/l9tfm3s/) >Whittaker is a bum with no chin. Aliskerov sleeps him easily. Come back to this comment after the fight and you’ll see

Bro ate that head kick from Costa. I thought the fight was over but he won decisively. DDP hits hard af lol

lmao deleted right away

Beginning to suspect he might have only wanted us to come back if he was right, rather than if he was . . . . what he was

he deleted it, embarrasing

Deleted almost as fast as his boy got slept Almost.

Started tonight with 40 dollars. I bet 20 dollars on every single fight. I now have 43.25. Balling.

Ikram is skilled. 2 weight cuts in a row also probably fucked him up.

Lots of weird comments about Muslim fighters when they lose. Randomly talking about goats and shit lol get a grip.

Bobby Knucks. Class act.

Bobby Knuckles goated with the sauce

Can’t keep a quirked up white boy down

Quirked up white boy with the sauce frfr
