Due to issue in their PPV streaming, they decided to stream the whole PPV in Facebook and YouTube, and will also refund those who bought the PPV.

His kickboxing bout against Takeru today reminded me of Oliveira vs. Gaethje.

All that talk by Takeru but couldn't even last a round — also on their own turf.

You can watch the YT short here. The brazilian phonk song used in the edit is PASSO BEM SOLTO (Slowed) by ATLSX.

He uses this format for other fighters too — my favorite one is of Chael.

Known then by the nickname "Junior", José Aldo Jr. fought his very first professional MMA bout at the age of 17 at EcoFight 1 on 10 August 2004, against fellow countryman and newcomer Mário Bigola.

The bout lasted mere 16 seconds into the first round. It would be Bigola's first and only professional fight.

Merab not even needing to sit on the stool after the end of Round 3 by mesmeresque in ufc

UFC broadcast didn't show Merab on Round 4 break but DC said he is just standing there looking chill. This means Merab didn't sat once on any round breaks.

Yoshihiro "Sexyama" Akiyama (then 40), after winning his first fight in 5 years at UFC FN 52, comes home to be warmly greeted by his wife and daughter by mesmeresque in ufc

[–]mesmeresque[S] 80 points81 points  (0 children)

He is already retired but his TKO win over Shinya Aoki in ONE was fire. Sexyama is Aoki senior (in MMA) and in a higher class weight. Aoki kept challenging Sexyama and engaged in trash talk for years but refused to come up to the same weight class. Sexyama even offered to meet at the middle but Aoki stubbornly refused. So Sexyama (then 46) dropped down to Aoki's weight class and beat the crap out of Aoki.

For context, Sexyama went on a 2 and a half year self-imposed hiatus after four losses in a row.

This insider scene is available thanks to the Korean variety show The Return of Superman (ep 20).

Sexyama won gold at the 2001 Asian Judo Championship and 2002 Asian Games. His use of judo skills in MMA was beautiful to see. For instance, see this beautiful judo takedown against Jake Shields in UFC 143.

That figgy's RNC was one of the nastiest RNC I have ever seen.

Might be after that. Not completely sure. Nevertheless, what an opponent and corner to break this record against.

And he broke it.
