[Official] General Discussion Thread - April 06, 2019

I'm still salty over Thompson being knocked out by Pettis, and Barboza being knocked out by Gaetjhe.

It's so sick of seeing time and time again, the better, faster, more intelligent fighter get beat down by a punk.

And then r/mma's attitude of "oh wow, he won the fight, he's the better fighter", that's not true, that's not how this works.

Particularly so with Gaethje. Gaethje is a dumb lump of meat, he's a dangerous shark, he only knows one direction, he can't reassess or reflect mid fight, the only way you can like his fight style is you like to see a walking punchbag.

This guy got picked apart by Eddie.

This is why prime Andersen Silva is the my all time favourite fighter, he's the fastest, most agile, probably the highest fight IQ of all time, and he always wins, a 17 fight kill streak.
