First time I saw Doumbé. Looks like crazy power and I actually found him very likeable as well. Exciting!

I love the smell of MMA while the sun is still up for once.

This Lapilus dude has insane striking, very impressive.

Maybe, just maybe could have stopped it at the turning away on stanky legs part...

So damn clean, so damn quick. Absolutely beautiful!

Wow, this already looks much more interesting than I thought it would be. Max rocked?!

I wanna like him because he is the only somewhat relevant fighter from Germany but unfortunately he is a boring decision machine.

“If I don’t take this medication, I won’t hear. I won’t stop (moving). It’s not good for training or fighting. It’s nothing. It doesn’t improve my performance.”

While this might be the most oxymoronic sentence I have heard in a while, her plea makes sense to me. Prohibiting a medication for a mental illness that would only marginally improve performance does not seem like the way to go.

While I think that you are right in some way – he lost to Yan which normally would have disqualified him from the title shot – desert rarely plays a role in the sport. You could say that Pereira didn't deserve his title shot while Leon was deserving his much earlier than he got it. But we all accept that the UFC is pursuing its own agenda like building hype jobs and promoting viewership and watch the show regardless. So I don't think it is fair to criticise any of the parties here (maybe apart from the UFC when they do sometimes claim to build fights around desert).

A bit like WMMA. No one with the finishing power (anymore).

That message sounds suspiciously lawyered and PRed to me. He legit used the phrase "low level" four times in those few sentences like he wants to hammer it into our brains.

That hair cut should give a point deduction. Nice finish though.
