Hey guys, I'm gonna be a broken record tonight...

In between fights when you get a chance, go upvote and boost the fight clips as our bot brings them over. All helps to get seen in the fediverse and get more people over here. Thanks.

Izzy is so embarrassing.

Thank you all for coming out tonight guys! Had a great time with you all.

Come visit us during the week in the threads and say hi if you're able. Lets keep building this out!

This has been a great night.

This was a tremendous card.

This is now the second most commented thread ever on kbin. /m/mma also has the third thread.

Thanks ugmug for putting this together! See everybody in a bit

What a great tribute. Legend

Was a great night watching along with you guys. Until next time. Be well.

Guys, it's been a pleasure and a honor spending this time with you.
We were blessed with one of the best cards I've ever seen... Amazing day for the mma fan.
Goodnight everybody.

What a fucking fight, can’t believe both of those guys stayed awake

What a great fucking card. Thanks to the community for hanging out!

Happy to see Dan get the win.

Oxygenated DDP is our new mythical fighter

I've watched his whole career basically. I feel old.

Du Plessis literally just flailed his way to a title shot, fuck sake

That score for Moreno is fucked. Glad the other judges got it right. Moreno’s stock doesn’t drop with this loss. That was a great fight.

Yo I love Moreno but there's no way he went 49-46.

Volk is unreal. Lands one super clean shot and it’s over. It looked like Yair was starting to get loose too.

Really happy to see an active live discussion thread for MMA on the fediverse. Thanks to everyone for participating.

Hell that fuckin' sucks

I think Izzy is gonna seriously hurt Dricus tho

great finish!

great card!

amazing night!!!

Putting this up a bit early since I’ll be running around this afternoon. Fights start in four hours. Let’s go!

I hope the lesbian rockstar look brings Hooker to the promised land. Inshallah

got dang!

hespect for not following up

49-46 for Moreno? WTF

Came for fights and a DNA test broke out.

Wow, amazing fight, congrats Volkanovski

Fuuuuuuuck

I knew Du Plessis was bad.. but to finish Whittaker like that... damn

I don't like this.

WTF!!! Great KO

Dana better spare 1 million dollars in bonuses for this night.

fight of the year candidate

Federation is working thankfully tonight (didn't last event) so our friends from Lemmy will be able to see us. Lets hope it holds, this event should be amazing.

What a great way to go out. Didn't even take any damage.

this card's been incredible

So many flash KO's tonight, crazy!

"36 and me" then "26 and me"

He has no idea what a chromosome is

I'll cry myself to sleep tonight.

the crowd makes such a difference, it's nice to watch a fight that doesn't sound like it's in an empty church.

And we still have two title fights.

Really no one left for Volk.

real slobber-knocker here

volk is that dude!

"all blood and guts. literally"

I didn't see any literal guts, Joe.

Dan Hooker and unhealthy wars. Maan.

man.. well deserved pantoja.. this was very close..

REAPER TIME

There's your next challenger.

Pantoja ain't doin shit to Moreno this time

HOLY SHIT

What a crazy fight

Those Prime necklaces are the exact sort of trashy promotional material you'd expect from that brand.

let's go val

very good card so far.

Bo 'xer' Nickal

Post nose job DDP new mythical fighter

Weight bully got fuuuuuuuucked up

This is the way to go out

Incredible fight. It felt like Hooker was fighting back from zombie land there for a bit. What a turn around.

Of course Adelaide Byrd

Bo with the nutshot takedown again, mark my words.

He's impressive on the ground.

HOLY SHIT

Makhachev Vs Volkanovski 2 incoming

In before Adelaide Byrd has this 5-0 Moreno like she did for Canelo

Du Plessis always has had weird movement but it looks even more weird tonight?

Leg injury?

I'm just here for all the ad reads. The fights get in the way of that.

Funny given how much damage Moreno has dished out, but this might be 3-1 Pantoja (I have it 2-2 though)

Happy tears :’)

Did anyone catch who had the 49-46 Moreno card? lmfao

I just got food delivered and HEARD the KO. Christ

Herb must have dirt on Dana and/or Ratner at this point to continue to get events.

has such short hair, yet still has to move it out of his eyes.

Volk don’t fail me now!

Hooker reminds me of Rory MacDonald at the end of his career

A lot of the skill is still there but there's no head movement, and no confidence

Ribovics is so hittable, not moving his head at all

Everybody please BOOST this thread so we can get others from the Fediverse here.

Thanks.

This is a fantastic card. Banger after banger.

That pass from whittaker was disgusting

2-1 Pantoja Crazy fight! The score doesn't tell the whole story

didn't realize that volk was cut in two different places.

Such a stacked card. Hope it delivers.

Fantastic card. Thanks for hanging out with us here, everyone!

Shit, I don't like that.

I would have stopped that a bit sooner.

Wanted Moreno, but I think Pantoja got it with the ground control and grappling

fun scrambling to start this fight.

I think with this community being so small that putting up the thread a little early is a good idea. If people show up early, they will know there is/will be a live thread. Plus it serves as a little pregame thread.

This fight can't go to the judges.

That couldn't have gone any better for Robbie.

and Kirk loves blocking punches with his face.

awesome way to end it!

This may be the closest 49-46 fight ever.

Great round for Moreno! Pantoja is fading

Got the new lady friend coming over to watch. Got the wine. Got the Prarie Brewing beers. Making Thai chicken wings. Let's fucking go boys

How the fuck is Hooker still standing

Holy shit, third flash ko of the night

This might be the closest 49-46 ever. Definitely need a rematch (Moreno god of rematches)

I’m nervous for Moreno and Volk. I thought Rob was the closest to a sure thing on this card.

good round

3-1 Pantoja

This might be the first time Buffer was standing behind the guy who lost, lol

Moreno likely will likely need a finish.

Hope Lawler puts on a strong final performance.

EDIT: Fuck yeah!

Brazilian champ once again.

Holy shit

Holy moly! Did not see that coming. Let's go Lawler!

He was looking good that round too.

ded

Robbie coming out to The Gael

Noooo! Great performance from DDP. Sad for Whittaker, but ddp v Izzy will be more interesting

2-2 I think

This card delivering so far!

Nothing against Jalin Turner, but I want to see Dan Hooker win by violent KO.

This has been a pretty entertaining card so far.

KICK HIM IN THE DICK

That was a wild fight. What a great night this has bene.

Moreno likely going to be involved in yet another rematch.

Fuck it, Dricus is gonna be middleweight champ isn't he

I know people give Bellator grief, but I much prefer the rapid fire approach to their prelims, even if it means a ~30 minute break before the main card. I just hate all this downtime between fights.

HOLY HELL

that was close at the end.

What a way to go for Robbie.

This fight should have been on the PPV, but I guess this can also give him the shine.

Super impressed with Taira’s control on top

Wild scramble

WOW!

Nice to see Jamie Lee Curtis sitting there with Theo Von

Rey Mysterio is a great wrestler. His son is an ex-con.

Adesanya dancing lol

Nickal's hands are incredible. That check hook on the way in, backs out, uppercut. So fast.

Champ is catching him now.

crazy fight. back and forth.

real african fighter, you know this brother

Whittaker got this

He cut him. Now to see how bad it is.

Gnarly cut but wont effect his vision

Haven't seen Nickal's opponents tape, wonder what his strategy is gonna be

Weight bully edged the first round

Wow… holy shit.

Dan is scared of getting hit in the body, I bet these body shots are hurting.

swangin n bangin

DDP after that nose job looked great! Whittaker seemed rocked bad after that GnP in the first, hope he comes back stronger.

Also, Izzy being corny AF as always. Can't wait for DDP to wrestlefuck him..

Hooker got that two dollar steak in him

UFC 290, Bellator v Rizin 2 and Rizin 44. All in the same night. 12 or more straight hours of mma.

and we still have another title fight to come.

This will be good

"He's already fuckin' tired" -Moreno's corner

eh

DC telling a story and forgetting the fighter's name.

WOW!

The official blockchain of the UFC. Come on.

Moreno’s striking is looking crisp

EDIT: until he got knocked down

This is the best card I have ever watched.

Eat shit Dana.

tough round for the champ

These guys fighting like this, while I had trouble opening a bag of chips earlier.

Buffer looking dapper as always.

That one no contest was really something too

Pantoja may have shot his wad.

that camera continuing to fall lol

The takedowns are going to decide this fight.

That takedown might win him the fight.

Edit: or not

Jesus fuck. Who ever has their hands that fucking low in a fight?

here we go! let's start the night with a finish to set the tone!

Came back and saw Brock Lesnar on the screen and thought they were announcing his return.

Huge mismatch, odds were right

Bruh, I know you're an Aussie, but don't be jocking volks walkout song

pantoja/moreno i've been begging for this championship fight for the past 2 years

Just hopping on and Terrence be using cm Punk music lol

Can't wait for Petrino vs Prachnio, the fight I'm most excited for.

Anyone else a little afraid for Bobby later?

Sure he is more skilled, but Dricus has a strange way of losing most of his fights until he suddenly wins.

Wait what? Wooooooow.

I hope those 205ers are gonna bang.

UFC has the worst freaking pacing. There is no way this should take 6 hours to get through the card. Ridiculous.

Cool fight, now back to waiting 😞

Dude stop that.

Damn that was a little too late for my tastes.

Petrino is built like a brick shit house.

Petrino seems really talented.

Moreno’s escapes are excellent.

he got that tap.

I would rank the Mayhem commercial guy.

Well since we have so much downtime, What fight are you guys most stoked for?

three straight kicks

The reason this shit takes so long is because the UFC sells timeslots to different networks in the same damn event.

Imagine watching Cowboys vs. Eagles and after the first quarter you have to change it from CBS to NBC.

It's 2023 and we're still doing this shit. It's fuckin' crazy.

violence tonight.

Trading in the pocket Lets go!!!

yall volk/yair is next.... bad ass fight night!

Off topic: No idea if anyone here watches the CFL. A QB was hurt exactly one year ago today. Today was his first game back. He went down with a non contact injury.

Sports are brutal at times.

That girl is brutal.

And I agree with the stoppage.

Seemed like every time Moreno landed an elbow Pantoja would take him down

Two fights left on the undercard with an hour to go. Oof!

Is there any chance main event will disappoint us?

What a brawl. I think Pantoja takes it, but who the hell knows with the judges?

Volk going all "levels to this shit" right now.

emotional night

I hope this ends in a snoozefest decision, it would make for a truly unforgettable card.

Volk is just man handling him in the grappling department.

oh boy

Fuuuuck I love this, Pantoja!!!

Cut in the same place as Whittaker.

DC is talking about Thomas Almeida, isn't he?

Pretty sure Moreno broke his hand somewhere in that fight. He didn't throw the right in the fifth once.

that was a huge hit.

Does that mean we get Byrd for this fight?

After this fight Bruce will say "and still undefeated".

Herb and his strong warnings that never result in loss of points…

Beautiful how Volk is just floating on top no matter how Rodriguez twists and turns.

Man wtf

Nice round for the champ.

I know they all moved to different camps, but Robbie is the last of the Miletich guys right?

Herb angry. Never make Herb angry.

Another fight where there would have been a finish if it lasted another 30 seconds.

Holy shit

He is exhausted

Hangman omg!

The jacket that guy was wearing was pretty damn nice.

Pantoja won this, atleast 3 rounds for him

He was destroyed

Moreno has the same voice as Cris Cyborg lol

Glad I didn't skip the earlies.

2-2 or 3-1 moreno

Is it starting late because the Jack Della fight is off?

He's still flat on his back. scary

Du Plessis was fighting at that pace without being able to breath out his nose? Him with even better cardio is terrifying

Is his leg bleeding?

...Welp

Oh man I was screaming 'just hit him ffs!' At my TV, he shut me up. Dude was being way too patient...
I'm on the Petrino hype train!!

Turner never looked so good.

RAWLBY

Bro is 5'8" fire hydrant with a 74" reach

Chairez corner is in denial.

Don't stand still like that dude 😰

"I hate that rule. It's so dumb... I'm a bear" perfect segue.

Volk is freaky.

Bobby Petrino

He has a foot/fence fetish.

Smart thing for Pantoja right now would be to go for a takedown. He might get knocked out otherwise

Robbie Lawler is moving his mouth weird when he speaks.

Can't Be Touched

Penn State guy coming out to Zombie Nation. Perfect

And there it begins, the wrestler starts to fall in love with his hands.

African clawed frogs have 36 chromosomes.

Edible frogs have 26 chromosomes.

Israel Frogdesana everybody.

Pat Barry is such a creepy dude.

Ha. If only Chairez had 30 more seconds.

took his ranking and now he seems he's going to retire. :(

that was nasty

Gomes looks like she'd car bomb you and not think twice about it

Dickus Kickus

Damn, two right hooks

1-1

Nice fight.

Time to get nervous.

Holy SHIT hahahahaha

Volkanovski channelling Holyfield with the cheeky nodder

did pantoja do enough in r5?

Supersport is bitch made; I keep losing my connection

Anyone know what’s going on with Volk’s cheek? He’s had a band aid on it for a few days now.

moreno escaping that was an L for BJJ

I thought Cerrone retired?

The Taira fight is still on, right?

I did not see THAT coming.

I have it 49:46 for Pantoja, but that sounds way more one sided than it was.

Taira hype!

When I see those big dudes I kinda don't want to see Bobby ever to move up to 205.

Knee to the dick.

There was never any chance for that guillotine.

Very natty arm veins on Du Plessis

What is going on???

Just placed a $20 parlay on Bo, Robert, Brandon, Jalin and Yair. I never win these dumb bets, but it would be a fun payoff.
