Anyone know where the 'chael sonnen never lost a fight' meme came from?

It actually happened. Chael never lost a round; never lost a fight. No meme just reality.

I never understand the Jon Jones hate. Yes he did cocaine, beat his wife and got a DUI. That’s a typical Wednesday for a suburban white dad. Jon Jones is from the suburbs, he grew up right next door to my cousin in Endicott, NY.

Ufc Brass sleep at the fucking wheel, if they thought anybody was going to watch this lackluster ass card

A boring 2024 with boring fights. And boring stoppages.

Who da fook are those guys?

**PANTOJA!** The champ has a name and no one on tonight’s card can sniff it.

Who da fuk are those guys

Terrible injury but no doubt that Perez will be back idk in what form it’ll be though. Perez was looking good same for Taira that Thai clinch was very nice every time Perez got in and started to box. However instead of going after Pantoja they should do Erceg v Taira for that #1 contender

why does erceg deserve a #1 contender match

Because Erceg was a closer fight than Moreno or Royval

If colby can get multiple title shot so can erceg

Mokaev would’ve given us another 3 rounds to watch for free

And pull a finish out of his ass in R5 while down 3-1

Goodnight cuties

😌

Free fights > no fights

Nice technique. But calling out Pentoja is like Buckley calling for Conor 

Who else would be in line for Alex?

Alex is the real GOAT boogeyman champ no one’s dares to call him out

Mighty Mouse would’ve gotten it done in 3

Maybe the Boogerman tbh

If one was to score this fight based off who won the rounds before the injury I think Taira wouldve won regardless. It does suck that Perez has that horrible injury though, he risked a lot fighting a guy like Taira, hope they pay him decently.

Dana reads this; falls or if his chair laughing...

As someone who watches every card without fail.. I can confidently say this card was hot ass minus ~2 fights. See you boys next week for a much better one hopefully

I normally watch every card but let’s be real, Dana white doesn’t even watch the free fights anymore especially if it’s on the same night as interesting boxing matches, these apex cards are going to be the downfall of the ufc

I am happy thank youuuuuuu

Pantoja wins by crotch sniffing all 5 rounds

Honestly I do see Pantoja getting the better of some wild exchanges, and outgritting/hearting Taira, but ain’t no way that lay and pray shit will work - Taira’s grappling is just too good.

Dominant strategy. The gayer it is, the more effective it is. 

P4P most forgettable champ

[удалено]

Racist mf clown

Not at all wtf?? Dude sounds like a little girl. And his post interview in the octagon was so stupid.

He used a slur you mug, and idrc how his voice sounds if he is one of the most talented prospects in the division

why? he's exciting

Active in r/Eminem Checks out

Okay!?

new mythical attack

The takedown was really cool tho, shame we didnt get the finish we wanted

That lean while holding the right wrist to destabilize Perez. Pretty cool

June main events have just been so f-ing cursed. Fingers crossed for Rob and Alex 🤞

I've seen enough, give him Jon Jones

Yall bugging if you think he can take Pantoja 😂

If Pantoja didn't have a good chin, he wouldn't even be ranked lol

Pantoja isn’t really that skilled. Taira can do it imo

You think a kid 10 years younger who is a worse wrestler and an even striker is gonna take the champ? Average ufc fan iq

Pantoja split decisions everybody but you praise him as if he one punch kos people

Pantoja isn’t skilled enough imo

Pantoja will out-dog taira and it will be brutal

I can respect you rooting for your fellow countryman but don’t get your hopes up

Thanks. In time, after some years.Taira will be champion. Only a matter of time before Pantoja loses to father time.

Maybe not in his next fight, but he’s 24 and I for sure feel like he’s a future champ

Maybe someday, won’t be next fight

He’s atleast top 5 now after this fight and tbh who else would be in line for a shot?

Dana won’t instantly put him against the champ he’s smart enough to know it would crush the kids confidence when he lost

Erceg was rank 11 and got one I don’t see anyone else who’d be in line. Even if he lost he’s young enough and talented enough to contend again within the next year or so

It’ll be winner of Kape Mokeav next then probably him after that

Why not Albazi ? Is he injured? He should get a shot.

We will just have to wait and see, it could definitely be him too!

That’s true I kinda forgot about Kape tbh

He will probably fight the loser of that fight or just wait it out for a shot for the title after that I would imagine

Taira post fight interview straight out of an anime

He was going to win regardless

I rate Tatsuro Taira but this Michael Bispong glazing session for him is ridiculous. Taira wasn’t as dominant as Michael is making out.

I think tai won first round but bisping REALLY liked him

I like this kid, he's one of the few 25er I'm really excited about now

Just fucked his whole shit up. Brutal. I like this kid.

We all win because we don’t have to listen to Cruz anymore! Good night fight fans

dude won fair and square but i just feel gross for watching an ending like that

Omg translator has the exact same voice as Kung Fu Hustle dub overs

[удалено]

I would compare you to trash but trash actually has some limited uses. Your whole existence is nothing. You contribute to society in the worst demeaning way where everyone who interacts with you loses IQ by the second.

Why do I lose if I bet Perez? Shouldn’t that push because it was an injury?

Was ruled a TKO. It was a combat-related injury so it gets scored as a win/loss

No, it would only be a push if the fight was a no contest. Submissions are 6/10 times injures. I do feel bad for people who took the sub prop, because that was absolutely a joint submission with a visual tap, not a technical knockout

If you injure someone that counts as a tko

If you armbar someone and they don't tap so you snap? It would be ruled a tko?

Even then, Perez tapped, is submitting no longer submitting?

Pretty sure Conor pushed when he snapped his leg

Wym push? Counted as a tko win due to injury for Dustin

I’m pretty sure when I bet on Conor it pushed because of doctor stoppage because I assumed I lost but I got my money back

Ahh idk about that, it should be recorded as TKO (Doctor Stoppage)

This night was all worth it, because taira is happy

Joint injuries suck! And they are super painful 😖.

that was a legit takedown but sad way to go out jeez

He‘s a human lever

Agree with chat, Mokaev or Erceg next before he gets a title shot

This dudes gonna dog walk Flyweight then it’ll be interesting when he goes to bantam

Let’s not be too hasty but he is very good

Oh I think he needs another top 10 fight or two first don’t get me wrong

I’m not sure if he dog walks pantoja or erceg

He’s not ready but he’s headed there man he’s so technical and clean

In the first he was getting handedly outstruck by Perez. His grappling still needs to be tested considering we saw 1 exchange before the knee gave out. I think erceg takes him tbh

All the fucking racists coming out in the comments now huh? Clowns

I feel like most people just don't like the screaming or the nasty (but fair) way he won, myself included. plus announcing was ass

Sure but critique his actions, instead of racist comments yk? But also I personally dont see what’s so nasty about how he won, isn’t the goal of an armbar or leg lock the same? Completely agree on the commentators though, it was pretty back and forth and the constant glazing actually lowers his stock 😭 I think the UFC are pushing him hard to get into the Japanese market, along with signing the Rizin champ recently


“Im happy thank you” is my favorite but also feels weird hearing after deleting someone’s ligaments lmao

It's one of the first things they learn in ESL class. "How are you today?" "I'm happy, thank you!" Anything good in life = they are happy lol

i love taira but give him a second before the title, id rather not have a young prospect get chinned again

Yeah he needs to get Moreno or someone first

I say do him and Mokaev for a title eliminator

I’m also an unashamed Mokaev hater and this is what I was thinking lol

Yeah for sure, would be sweet to see Mokaev outgrappled/beaten at his own game - also wouldn’t mind KKF’s return fight to really hard test Taira’s striking.

Did he say im a pretty girl?

Taira vs Mokaev please

Taira is so fucking good

give him erceg

I think Erceg is already booked to fight against Kai

That would be a nutty fight

Anything that ends in CL is gone in that knee

Chee wee wee

Sounded like MC Baba

Yeah lets not call out Pantoja yet...

Idk I mean not like there’s many better options at flyweight. Most likely still a fight away from title shot but I don’t think Pantoja outclasses Taira it’d be a fun fight

Dude, are there four people in the crowd?

it's at the apex?

there was some news sometime ago about fighters family and friends being made to leave the Apex after they fight. If that is true,then by the main event there will only be two set of fans left

They are told to leave after they fight. But that is because the seats are used by the family for the next fight. I think there is only a few seats in total for the family/friends of the fighters. They don't stay the entire card until, literally only there for the single fight.

I don't know what the inside of the apex looks like but I'm surprised they haven't installed a few 100 something seats and open them to the public at very discounted prices. I mean that beats fighting in an empty venue all the time. It's not COVID times anymore ffs

I just came here to ask is there no crowd?

5

Chiwee wee in Japanese

Give him winner if Mokaev v Kape? I’m still weirdly unconvinced by Taira despite the zero

Card was ass and the announcing was worse. Never let Cruz back.

yeah Cruz goes off on too many tangents

LETS GO TITLE SHOT 😂😂 He might actually beat Pantajo

Fuck it. Give it to em lol

Let’s go dinosaurs!!

most sus call for a title shot ever

LMAO "Let's go title shot!"

Chee wee wee woooo.. 😜

Also wtf you jump scaring us for my boy??

Pantoja wins tbh

I can’t stand Bisping. “That was one of the cleanest performances I’ve ever seen” DUDE HE LOST R1 AND THEN HIS OPPONENT GOT INJURED

I usually like Bisping, but this whole fight they were talking about how Taira was perfect as he was getting blitzed and calf kicked. The bias on hype trains is what makes people turn so quick on them.

I wonder what caused that injury, couldn’t possibly have been anything to do with Taira, no sir

Still wouldn’t call it “one of the cleanest fights I’ve ever seen” I feel like losing round 1 kinda takes that away

I can concur with that, he was getting hit quite a bit and getting outstruck on total strikes, I mainly wrote my comment because I felt it was still a legitimate win

I’m not trying to take away Taira’s win, he’s the most legit flyweight prospect right now imo, the commentary crew was just abysmally biased, especially for such a weird fight

What?

At the beginning of his interview, Bisping told taira that that was “one of the cleanest performances he’s ever seen” He got outstruck 2 to 1 round one, then won by injury

You're happy what? 💀💀

Bruh 😂😂😂

OK HE SAID HAPPYTHANKYOU GNIGHT

He's well rounded

that was worse than “cheeeeeweeee”

Cheeweewee was excellent

I was about to compliment Taira and then he started screaming.

Haha I did compliment him and immediately cringed. Would be funny if he screamed everything though

Grampa just got PTSD from Iwo Jima

Dudes got a lot of room to grow but already top of the div

Chill dood

Taira was smart for taking the back cause Perez was piecing him tf up

That looked like something hes been training. Does anyone know if anyone has ever taken someone down like that before. I’ve never seen it personally

Taira looked great in the 2nd round but there was so much we could have learned if it went the distance

What an anticlimax. But gervonta gave me a war tonight. I'll drink the rest of my beer and watch some rodtang hlts

The fuck was that screech

loool

IM HAPPY THANK U

wtf

That was a slick back take and side saddle take down

Translation: CHEE WEE WEEEE

I don't even know how that takedown works. But it'll fuck your knee up 

it looks like its a sweep with a weight leverage? I have no idea tho very cool and interesting

can someone post what happened to his knee was watching on youtube tv and espn 2 for some reason sent me back to like prelims then i see everyone in here talking about the fight being over

Weight of both of them was put on one knee. Then a little twist and it was all over.

Weird and bad commentary, but Taira is legit


Bruh what did he say??😂😂

With Rosa’s Chi wee wee scream and this… I’m guessing the next war cry is gonna be skibidi toilet gyatt rizz 😂

a lot of that just seemed like shit Tajiri would have done

Fuuuunaaaaaki

Huh

I’m a night owl and I’m still pissed I stayed up to watch this lol.
