    Dont come into a thread after the fights claiming you backed a winner, nobody cares stop looking for a pat on the back theres a gambling thread for pre fight fancies try using it goodnight.
    Who are you to tell someone what to do ya pillock. I was expressing my happiness at what I thought was a win. As stated in one of the comments above, aftertiming is allowed in this thread. Why in the name of fuck would I make up lies about winning a bet to impress strangers on the internet?

    firstly nobody said you were lying about the bet, and aftertiming is not allowed in the forum full stop, its annoying and good karma that you lost your dough will teach you next time to not come on after a fight bragging.

    Expressing happiness isnt bragging. Only a miserable prick like yourself would actually be happy at someone else losing a bet. Piss off

    Tapping to strikes must be the rarest of the rare. Can't remember many doing it in the UFC for as long as I've been watching. I hadn't noticed him tap either, I thought the ref had jusmped in of his own accord.

    Fuck me, Branch tapped to the strikes. Balls. :mad:

    Holy fcuk had this down as a loss, the mercier sub would have got me over 1k but that's 71.25 I was pretty sure I didn't have.

    Just finished watching them back now. Not a great card in fairness. Hall looked like a total bum until the winged the overhand, he's a gatekeeper and nothing more.

    Perry looked his usual reckless self, ate some big shots before getting the knee. I reckon Robbie would ruin him but it could be a war.

    Main event, I thought it would be easier for Rockhold before the fight. After the first I thought Branch was going to take it, looked at the time left on the video file at the start of the second and realised it was ending soon and honestly thought Branch was going to catch him in the pocket and finish him, then once I saw Rockhold get the hands together for the body ock and get the takedown I knew that was the end of it, Rockhold's top pressure and control is elite level, it's impossible to get him off you. Long time since I saw someone tap the mat due to strikes but it's the right call by Branch, he knew it was going nowhere but him going to sleep anyway.

    I'm never sure if I imagined Shogun tapping to strikes from Jones, or if the ref stepped in first.

    I like him as a fighter but Rockhold has no personality at all, awfully cringy in his post fight interview.

    He's an insufferable gob****e.

    Bisping's "shut the **** up buddeh, I just knocked you out, you're suspended" to him was one of the best put downs of any fighter in years.

    Didn't realize you could be submitted due to strikes.

    That's my something new learned for the day.

    I wonder how far usman can go?

    There doesn't appear to be many holes in his game but the ww div is pretty stacked
    gunni could be an ideal opponent for him next time
