Meh... He's not overrated imo. He has his nut huggers but he was Def the king for a very long time. 

 

Yeah but who was nates competition when he lost. It's easy to say this dude has a losing record but you gotta look at who they fought. 

I disagree. Dude has been living off his featherweight glory for years. Most people took Conor in this match. Look at who Dustin has fought since their first fight. Nothing but killers and he only got bopped by Khabib who bops everyone.  King's don"t vacate titles after never defending them in the first place. GSP is an all time great, welterweight king but he wasn't the middleweight king. He never defended his middleweight belt.  Conor was an elite featherweight. He shouldn't even be ranked at 155.

Ngannou just slept Stipe. Who honestly has chance against this dude? Once he stuffed Stipe's take down, I knew he was cooked.

I'm not into MMA that much, but goddamn it looks scary when Ngannou sleeps someone. Like they got hit with a sledgehammer.

A very brutal sport to watch, so I have mixed views on people hurting each other and rearranging their faces and ears like that.

 

On the other hand, I've thought about taking classes for MMA for impersonal reasons of self defense. Unfortunately, I have one bad shoulder, so I don't know how far I could go with this. It still have my interest nonetheless after this pandemic is over.

Not sure if it was UFC hype but they say Ngannou's punches have 96 hp. That's more than either of my first two cars. My 82 Ford Fairmount had 86hp. My 86 Cavalier had 85 hp.

This is only kinda MMA related, but Ben Askren lost to Jake Paul. I totally forgot this fight was going to happen.

Askren too busy making half a million dollars, while having a dad bod and literal dad age, to care.

 

For real. Dude is only 36, and looks like he partied with the Stones. He's even got a fake hip. Wrestling watermelons is rough.

Please tell me yall watched this PPV. It was fucking nuts. If you haven't seen it, DO NOT watch Weidman's leg break. That was nasty. Rose sleeping Weili surprised me. Usman keeps getting better man. He's striking is getting better and that's bad news for his opponent. Masvidal has never been KO'd going back to his backyard street fighting days.
