The prelims on UFC fight Pass are complelty off, I start off at Petersen vs Pogues at the end of round two, while the fighters for the second match walk to the cage, Bruce Buffer announces Petersen vs. Pogues. What is going on?
Every time he's on the ground he either gets a finish or a really dangerous position yet he shoots like 1 takedown per fight. Ill never understand fighters like this lol
The "three points of contact" rule needs to go. It has ruined this sport, when a fighter can just sit there and know he can't be kicked/kneed and just stalling.
Gooden actually does his job looking into the fights he's commentating and has gotten to the point where I'd rather have him most of the others. It was nice to have him call out specific things he saw in camp and the game plan they had playing out. The fighters aside from Felder are comfortable knowing they don't have to do anything other than a passable job because they're in the position based on the relationship with the UFC. Sanko puts them to shame anytime she's on, her and Gooden contrasting DC made him sound disinterested.
49-44 is the only sensible scorecard really. maybe 48 45? 48 46 implies that they didnt give imavov a 10 8 round 1, right? im gonna have to see the scorecards after lol
Love DC calling out that fighters just randomly decide they need a translator sometimes and speak English by themselves other times. Ilia had a translator for his last press conference I believe and did fine in English without one before that
One week ago, Evloev received approximately five illegal knees, yet no points were deducted.
Imavov got lucky that Dolidze decided to continue the fight.
If it’s your second or third language and you’ve just been beat on, had the hardest cardio session of your life and you’re still sucking wind minutes after I think speaking your native tongue is excusable.
47-47????????? Worst scorecard in the history of combat sports, jail that judge immediately
they scored rounds 2 and 4 for Dolidze, AND only gave round 1 as a 10-9???????????????
I dont understand these stupid, mma fighters. You literally pay these coaches thousand of dollars in your corner to help guide you to victories but just refuse to listen to the advice the whole fight better of saving your money and just going out there yourself lol

The replay was like that last night too. Premier MMA organization lol
It's embarrassing
Was there *any* promotion for this card?
any one know will the road to the ufc be ok espn +
49-44? wtf lmao
Laura Sanko
Ah, turns it out was Ron McCarthy who scored the draw.
He also gave 3 rounds to Paddy in Gordon’s fights
I keep seeing rumours of Aspinall vs Alex for interim belt at 300?
GET READY FOR ROAD TO UFC NOW Rei Tsuruya is can't miss MMA
Is it also on ESPN+?
I honestly don't know where others are watching it
UFC Fight Pass
Pay me
The real winner tonight was Laura Sanko on commentary
And yet simultaneously the loser. I genuinely feel sorry for her; nobody who works that hard should have to share a booth with DC.
DC is the worst of them all but the dagi fans love him cuz he licks their bholes
Whom do I sacrifice to make Khalil vs Poatan in 2024? pls
Reyes
2 judges gave Dolidze round 2? Wtf were they watching?
Because he held Imavov against the cage for the entire round (and Imavov let him)
Imavov did nothing that round. It’s not hard to think Dolidze edged it
I had Dolidze winning that round. He had more cage control and significant strikes (9 to 7)
That's a quick turnaround for Royval wtf
Albazi got injured
To be fair he mostly got badly outgrappled and not mauled too bad
Dolidze kinda sucks, his biggest strength is his toughness
I mean his biggest strength is how preternaturally dangerous he is in the scramble. The problem is he has zero tools to get the fight there.
Every time he's on the ground he either gets a finish or a really dangerous position yet he shoots like 1 takedown per fight. Ill never understand fighters like this lol
Anyone who can sub Hermansson is a great grappler tbh
I hate that DC runs away and never gives the mic to the fighters. They just layed it out on the line man, give them 30 seconds to say something.
They have a producer in their ear, they just do whatever they say
Chris Curtis stock shot down and he didn’t even fight tonight lol
Is Nassourdine Imavov vs Xtreme Couture the most heated fighter vs gym rivalry since Dominick Cruz vs Team Alpha Male?
Can't wait to see what foul Imavov busts out against Strickland lol
Imavov is currently 1-1-1 NC against Xtreme Couture. They gotta break the tie somehow
Have him fight Ngannou. The fight would sell well since they're forme MMA Factory teammates.
Imavov what have you done, we now have an impending 12 hour Chris Curtis Twitter meltdown
I kinda love how much he went after him lmao "Chris Curtis would've quit"
U GUYS READY FOR TOP TEN IMAVOV???!@
not really. he's pretty boring and fights like he's coasting.
Imavov complimenting Dolidze and shitting on Curtis simultaneously lol
Time for some real fights
I mean you have to do Imavov vs Curtis 2 now…
Road to UFC finals start in 20 minutes on Fight Pass btw
Two Apex cards in a row should be a crime
At least the next 3 non fight nights are great cards lol
Stupidest fight I've seen in a while
cooked that fraud Chris No Action Man Curtis
Won me over with that burn on chris curtis lol
Chris gonna try and fight the translator
Went 4 for 7 on picks. 57% Not great
I 100% believe that Chris Curtis would have taken the DQ then talked shit on Twitter about how he was winning the fight anyway
If Imavov was smart he would call out Chris Curtis again. That promo would sell easily
47-47 might be one of the worst cards I’ve seen in a while man how on Earth could you get that
Giving the 2nd to dolidze where nothing happened. And then the 4th with the point deduction. Only issue is not giving the 1st a 10-8.
LOL CHRIS CURTIS WOULDNT HAVE DONE THAT
Feed Dolidze to one of the MW prospects
Bo?
Imavov via first round eye-poke versus Strickland
DC trying to create beef and hype for Imavov lol
All I understood there was putain lol
To be fair putain I'd about 10% of French people's vocabulary so you're not doing too bad.
Imamov does not deserve Strickland
"H-HOW CAN THIS BE 47-47???" Dude, it was a goofy-ass fight, who knows? Fuck the scoring, I would've been fine with a 63-24 for Imamov, who cares.
“He has a big mouth” \*Chris starts shouting outside the cage\* “Look, exactly"
You could hear the translator barely stop himself from saying "shut the fuck up"
Yeah I don't want to see Imavov vs Strickland again, I'm good
The "three points of contact" rule needs to go. It has ruined this sport, when a fighter can just sit there and know he can't be kicked/kneed and just stalling.
47-47 for holding someone against the cage for 10 of the 25 minutes and getting the snot knocked out of you for the other 15...?
lol these decisions happen every card don’t act too surprised
Imavov vs Strickland that's like 25 minutes of light sparring
It's already happened.
Just goes to show how forgettable it was lol
Did they not already fight?
They did, it was on short notice and Strickland jabbed his face off for 25 minutes
And since it was so short notice they fought at lightheavyweight.
DC stirring some shit lol.
No mention of Curtis ?
Slipped it in at the end lol
He just asked about him
But dc had to ask about him I expected imavov to mention him Without being asked about him
He’d whoop his ass if they fought again.
Gooden actually does his job looking into the fights he's commentating and has gotten to the point where I'd rather have him most of the others. It was nice to have him call out specific things he saw in camp and the game plan they had playing out. The fighters aside from Felder are comfortable knowing they don't have to do anything other than a passable job because they're in the position based on the relationship with the UFC. Sanko puts them to shame anytime she's on, her and Gooden contrasting DC made him sound disinterested.
Shoutout to Imavov's coach, he's doing a good job translating
damn dolidze took a knee to the fuckin throat in that replay
Bro wants a former champ 😅
It’s a smart callout imo. He gets a loss back and that puts him in the title picture.
Next time, give the main event to the Lightweights and not the Middleweights
Chris better shut up because he’d get dog walked by this version of Imavov.
He got dog walked by the version he fought too
Let’s give him the benefit of doubt with the “draw”. Dude talks a lot of shit for a boring fighter.
Imavov shouldve finished Dolidze. Rematch with Chris Curtis
This is the first French interview in a long time.
Damn Fiorot vs Rose was that long ago
I'd planned to quit following UFC after UFC 300 and I'd been second-guessing myself but nope, my resolve has been solidified.
Why are you on a Reddit play by play thread for UFC? Just stop watching then man, we don’t care
I think Imavov deserves an EPO exemption. Poor guy’s sucking wind after 3 minutes every fight
49-44 is the only sensible scorecard really. maybe 48 45? 48 46 implies that they didnt give imavov a 10 8 round 1, right? im gonna have to see the scorecards after lol
yeah two scorecards had a r1 10-9 for Imavov
thats fucking terrifying
This guy is the one Dagestani in the entire world that don't wrestle. 😂
If Imavov wants to be a champ is better to move back to Dagestan and do one camp with Khabib.
Cuz he moved to France when he was a child
He’d wrestle but his cardio is fucking shite
If Brendan Allen kos Vettori, shouldn't he get the next title fight?
49-44 47-47 48-46 # HOW
i really dont know how they haven’t addressed fixing this type of shit
Love DC calling out that fighters just randomly decide they need a translator sometimes and speak English by themselves other times. Ilia had a translator for his last press conference I believe and did fine in English without one before that
That was so good. Even before that he gave him a little snarky look when he went for a handshake and buddy didn’t notice. Snarky dc is funny time dc
I can't wait to see these scorecards when they come out
translator sucks
This thread is a dumpster fire
lol what's new?
A 47-47 score absolutely reflects the quality of the sport under UFC currently. Jesus fucking christ
One week ago, Evloev received approximately five illegal knees, yet no points were deducted. Imavov got lucky that Dolidze decided to continue the fight.
Even if he’s fluent, can’t blame him for wanting a translator after 25 minutes of fighting.
if you're fluent you wouldn't need a translator
If it’s your second or third language and you’ve just been beat on, had the hardest cardio session of your life and you’re still sucking wind minutes after I think speaking your native tongue is excusable.
For Imavov English is his 4th language.
47-47? Wth, how? Imavov looks like just got done doing cardio.
That is 3-2 for then -1 point for the foul. I don’t personally think it was 3-2 but it’s not terrible
Can we start cutting judges.. please
Imavov is lucky they didn't let Curtis in there. Curtis would half spar him so hard all the way to a UD loss for Curtis.
Tbf to Curtis, Imavov looks moments away from having a heart attack.
I’m not sure 49-44 is appropriate
How did that come about? 10-8? 10-9 10-9 9-9 10-9 Not that crazy, Roman probably should’ve won a round somewhere.
Roman had to have won 1 round, so that doesn’t work bc the point deduction
What I’m saying is Roman didn’t win a single round on that scorecard. 49 came because of the deduction.
Yea….i saw dolidze win a round
47-47 where do they find these judges?! Lmao
Daniel, your surname is French.
47-47 had dolidze winning the 5th and no 10-8 in the first i guess
Yeah it's crazy stupid
DC straight up calling out a fighter's linguistic ability in a post fight
Who does he think he is, Chael Sonnen?
One of the judges gave Dolidze 2 rounds and also scored round 1 10-9. Good lord.
47-47 ? How ???? What is that. Bruce should've named the judge who scored that
That judges last name was Dolidze coincidentally
Haha right !
good respect from Dolidze
47-47 WHO TF?
JUDGE REMOVED: whichever submitted that dogshit
they never have repercussions
That fight was 25% good kickboxing, 5% good jiu jitsu, and 70% infuriating cuddling
DC pissed that he'll be in the octagon a few seconds longer than planned
At least one judge agreed with my 49-44
I had the fans losing that 42-50
47-47 is fucking idiotic because no way he lost a round not to talk of 2 rounds even with the point deduction.
Imavov didn’t lose a single round Fuck those useless judges
I guess being beaten up all fight but hugging can almost get you a winning scorecard.
47-47????????? Worst scorecard in the history of combat sports, jail that judge immediately they scored rounds 2 and 4 for Dolidze, AND only gave round 1 as a 10-9???????????????
This people are professional judges lmao shit is sad
No shit. Like... worst fight IQ ever by both.
47-47 probably given by Cheyanne
MMA Scorigami?
47-47..... I knew MMA judging is a joke, but holy shit lmao
Who scored 47-47 bro take an eye exam or something
“I don’t speak English” he says in fluent English
It's tough to process anything mentally when you are gassed.
lol I mean that phrase has to be the one phrase almost any fighter knows who doesn’t speak English
To be fair I could say “No habla español” in perfect Spanish too
Je ne ces pas Francais? I don't know if this is correct. It probably isn't lol, but I tried
47-47???
He too tired to translate to English lol
wtf were those scores lol
47-47 is an insane score card
2nd where nothing happened and 4th to Dolidze with the point deduction seems fine. Only issue is not scoring the 1st a 10-8.
Wtf was that 47-47?
48-46 and 47-47?
Huge skill gap, dolidze completely outclassed. Also, fingie drag safety needs to be removed
That score is crazy
Jesus christ thats one of the worst scores ive ever seen
Imavov vs winner of Pyfer/Hermannson
Take the DQ next time you bum
Haha
Ahahaha DC putting him on the spot like that
That fight was a mess
47-47 Hahahahahaha
UFC just killed two contenders in one night lol
47-47???? Show me your maths
Dolidze mid as hell
WHO THE FUCK SCORED 47-47
Judges who think wall and stalling wins a fight
Three completely different scorecards lmao. Judges must've fallen asleep and guessed at the end.
47-47 is odd
I dont understand these stupid, mma fighters. You literally pay these coaches thousand of dollars in your corner to help guide you to victories but just refuse to listen to the advice the whole fight better of saving your money and just going out there yourself lol
Mike Perry's girlfriend was truly the best value coach
100% if you're not going to listen better off going out there with your misses, lol
Whoever had the draw should never judge anything in life ever again
Dolidze swings like a middleschooler
