UFC 254: Khabib vs Gaethje [POST FIGHT] Discussion

[ILJO]

Excited for this fight. Whitaker is a great dude and a great fighter but I’m pulling for Cannon.

I'm a big Whittaker fan, so I'm pulling for him. But on the other hand I'd rather see a new exciting challenger for Izzy.

A huge part of me wants Bobby to win just to WRECK "the plan" to have him face Iz next. If it makes the MMA "media's" job harder – I'm all for it.

But fuck it. I just hope we get a VIOLENT finish.

Agreed. At this point I just hope the violence streak keeps going!

 

[Poindexter]

Cannonier has a hell of a physique. Dude is a monster.

Super freak physique.

hard round to score.. Cannonier had really nice leg kicks but I feel Rob had better punches

 

[ILJO]

Good kicks for Cannonier. Not sure if it won him the round though.

 

[Anchorpunch]

Close round, gave it to Whittaker.

 

[kc56]

That leg is hurting.

 

[Noise]

Close fight but I've got Bob up two.

 

[ILJO]

Whittaker making it clear that Izzy would wreck this dude.

20-18 Bobby Knuckles

 

[Anchorpunch]

2-0 Whittaker

 

[m1ckey kn0x]

1,000%.

 

[m1ckey kn0x]

I really wanted two more rounds for that shit

 

[nbm02ss]

That has to be a 10-8 Rd 3, right?

Not a finish, but that brought the violence!

 

[m1ckey kn0x]

Guess Izzy getting a new face is out the window

 

[ILJO]

Phew! Close call at the end but otherwise Whittaker pretty much had his way with the supposed next title challenger.

Good win Bobby!

 

[Trodden]

Whittaker looked better than he has in a long time, great performance

Superfight time?

 

[Poindexter]

The fucking reaper bitches!!!!!

 

[Noise]

MAIN EVENT TIME, WAR.

So many questions about to be answers. This shit never gets old.

 

[m1ckey kn0x]

Here we fucking go.

War JG.

 

[ILJO]

Superfight time?

Notice how even Whittaker wasn't too keen on calling out Izzy when given the opportunity in the post fight interview. I don't think anyone is really ready for that rematch yet, and there's nothing else really on the horizon for Izzy at MW.

 

[nbm02ss]

I think we get more fun fights with Gaethje as champ so I'm hoping he wins, but it's so hard to pick against Khabib.

The frequency that Izzy fights at really makes long-term matchup planning difficult.

 

[Poindexter]

The Ferguson beating was nightmarish.

 

[Palma]

I got a feeling about Gaethje in this one

 

[Noise]

Rooting for Khabib, betting on Justin.

This shit is crazy.
