    Maybe he said that so Usmans corner would advise him to go for headshots instead of the body. Some of that MAGA 4D chess.

    Woohoo, well done Usman and I had the ko at 5/1. Not after timing, put it up in the gambling thread.

    You sure you're not a WWE fan yourself? You certainly sound like one.

    Great fight. Credit to both. That 45 seconds before that knockdown won the fight, Usman upped it when Colby was winning the decisive round.

    Stoppage was fine

    How funny would it be if Usman pissed hot now.

    He'll be whinging for weeks about this.

    Absolute the correct decision from Goddard to stop it.

    I don't think it was even close anyways, I thought Usman won the first four rounds. I don't know what the commentators were at saying it was close.

    He won 2, 3,4, and was winning 5.
    Colby won round 1, if only for volume.

    You're crazy. 2-2 at best.

    I can see why you would say that but it was volume versus power and I thought the power punches from Usman won the round. The difference in punches thrown wasn't that great either.

    The unwillingness to defend himself from hammer fists while trying not hug a knee after being dropped lost it for him.

    One judge had 3-1 Colby with him winning the 5th
    One judge had 3-1 Usman
    One judge had 2-2

    Joe Rogan having a solid rant tonight about how stupid the judges are.

    Just as I was posting there I heard the judges scores, obviously gone as corrupt as boxing now. The Aldo decision earlier being another example and I've seen these odd decisions in many UFC events of late.

    Yeah. And any judge who called it a draw or for CC is clearly fecking incompetent.

    Anyone who thinks that was a bad stoppage is delusional. WP Goddard.

    Great fight, not what I expected at all.

    I don't agree man, a great fight like that deserves a solid conclusion, no one was in danger, let it run.
