He’s got allllllll the tools but you can’t stick your chin up and have your mouth hanging open lol

He’s young as fuck. He’s still gonna be a champ one day

 

I was really pulling for Pico, sucks to see him go out the way he did. He was out cold.

 

Schaub has been a bit better with information lately so take it for whatever but he just said GSP has been training a bunch with Freddie Roach and is getting lean and looking for a fight at 55

 

pretty much the same as his first fight tbh

 

Would imagine we’ll see Bader back in the UFC one day

 

Well god damn.

 

Holy shit lol

 

Retire now

 

lol

 

Are we sure Bader isn’t better at heavyweight?

 

I'm sorry, that was not a huge hit....

 

His chin is non existent

 

Bellator HW/LHW champ is now a free agent lol

 

There was a rumor that Fedor got knocked out really bad in his camp leading up to this fight. Wonder if more info will come out about that.

Bader landed clean but that didn't LOOK like a heavy shot by any means.

 

Can’t believe Pico and Dillashaw who push each other in training both ended up on highlight reels the past two weeks. This sport is not kind.

 

Ha, knew Fedor was going down in the first. Bader has never looked better.

 

I’d love to see Bader vs. Jones again or Bader vs. DC. He’s always had the skills/tools there but he has just had some goofy (yet crucial) lapses in judgement in his losses to people like Rumble, Glover, and Tito (intimidation, psyching himself out, going for the kill and leaving himself open). It seems like he’s put it together these days.

 

This has been a nice streak of fighters bringing it early and explosive. It's obviously been catching some off-guard and working, but it'll get a lot of guys/women thinking that's a smart game plan and we'll see some slip-ups in a few coming cards i'll bet.

 

Think Jones is too far advanced with striking for him, but I think he'd have a real good shot against DC.

 

I think it comes back to a lot of the previous problems he had with Jones....which is that Bader is too short and stocky to utilize any sort of significant striking against him. Jon uses his reach too well.

 

Oh yeah Jones would absolutely take it slow, and just pick him apart from the outside. Bader would need to land something a hell of a lot harder than what he did against Fedor to stun Jones at the very least.

 

Tomorrow is judgement day for Conor, Khabib and Jones. Quite a fucking lineup going in front of the Nevada athletic commission

 

Unless everything gets delayed, like always

 

I wonder if Khabib's recent comments will come back to bite him in the ass

 

Apparently they just settled already so neither of them will be in court anymore. I can’t wait to see what the punishments are.
