The Civils Mains result has been declared. This thread is for sharing your grief , joy , mixed feelings - absolutely anything and everything.
Right, Although Helwani predicts he will continue fighting.
Too young, too much success... And still a very good fighter to retire IMO
Moreover, It seems UFC is now transitioning, or maybe it already has, from a place "where the race was to and for the belt" to "Entertaining fights and good match ups".
Even fighters with No belt chance command good respect and more importantly Relevance.
Nate Diaz is a good example so is Poirier choosing Conor over belt.
One very surprising decision was to give Iron Chandler the shot for the belt after just one fight, whereas Oliveira waited for many years.
Indeed Iron did put up a great show even though he lost, would've been crazy if he would've won the title. :p
PS : Oliveira TKOing Chandler was an outcome which I was least expecting.
Yep, years of hard work and emotion overwhelmed him completely.
Oliveira is an all-around great guy, he donates a huge amount of his paycheck to the favelas (in Brazil) he grew up in and constantly visits there to see if anyone needs any help. It's nice to see people like him who are so down-to-earth and respectful in a sport that needs you to beat someone half to death!
@CaptainPeralta Everything revolved around him, till The Eagle drowned him in the ocean :DHonestly, that was the point after which i started following MMA.
Khabib is the funniest guy, he is so blunt in media interviews it's so much fun to watch him! :p
"I am here for Smash"
"Send me location"
I truly believe Khabib is the one punch man of MMA, he has trained so hard that maybe, just maybe only GSP could beat him. But otherwise, Khabib is the true GOAT fighter.
Nothing but respect for that guy!
During Tony weigh-in, where Tony was wearing sunglasses himself and asking Khabib to remove his sunglasses when he was not wearing any was damn funny.
Arey bro I can totally imagine the confused and blank look on Khabib's face! 😂😂😂😂
Speaking of funny, I recently got to know about Ryan Hall. Dude looks like he just woke up from a 200-year sleep! 😂😂
@TheNotorious Must be hard for you champ to read all this discussion about food while you are cutting weight :(.
Not sure of what the real Notorious is doing rn, I am seriously hoping that he is training his calves like hell this time lol.
But if I have to answer this personally, what I did today was that just after doing workout for 1.5 hours in gym, as I was feeling hungry, I went to have chicken tikka wrapped in rumaali roti ha ha ha.
And all the credit goes to the discussion wherein chicken tikka was mentioned along with its origin. I felt like kyu na yeh item hee khaaya jaaye aaj! 😂😁

Kabib’s “Send me location” is old now.
Now it is time for Poirier’s “Send me donation” 😂
@Raaavan yes bhai a mma fan here. I’ll try my best to watch the fight live on Sunday.

Well, all the stats are in his favour. Nole only dropped a single set in the run up to the finals. His head2head with Berettini is also 2-0. And more importantly he is playing some of his best tennis right now.
But, I think Berettini can mount a good challenge. He's got a big serve (22 aces in the SF) and converted good number of break points in the earlier matches. Also, his grass court season has been good so far, so he has that momentum with him.
That being said, I'm rooting for Berettini in the Final :)

He was fighting with real bears when he was 10 years old!

@Raaavan Yes. Hell yeah.
Good main card too..
I am rooting for Dustin and Wonderboy.
Lets see how it goes
Why is one called Dustin while the other gets a cool name like wonderboy?
@LetsGetThisBread Dustin is his real name and his nickname is Diamond :P.PS : Dustin Poirier is also known as Dustin 'The Diamond' Poirier
Stephen Thompson is known as 'Wonderboy'.
Haha thanks for letting me know… nahi toh i was under the impression ki Dustin is the bechara with no friends who come up with cool nicknames for him.
