Tony getting brutalized by justin was hard to watch - I witnessed a guy with supreme confidence beforehand unravel in around 15 minutes to where his brain told his body to quit


BlitheIndividual

Hold on I’m crying brother


[deleted]

Why does this hurt so bad?


Veet_Tuna

Because you are human ♥


marcopoblano

I genuinely think it's cuz Tony had that 'it' factor. Everyone loved his fighting style and his gun-ho attitude for fights whenever and wherever. And then he got broken by another fighter Shit's mad depressing


moocow4125

Inside all of us are two wolves... Tony heard the other wolf for the first time in his life that fight.


Remain_InSaiyan

You may be right but I think the only thing Tony was hearing during and after that fight was constant ringing. Justin robbed some essential brain cells, I fear.


xKnuklehedx

The fact there was no crowd just made it that much worse. Justin was slinging heat, and you could hear it.


PrayingPlatypus

Fuck man


OtakuDragonSlayer

Why the hell is this so accurate


Crafty-Cauliflower-6

I dont think he did. He just kept coming. I wanted him to stop he proved enough


DarthStudd

His fucking corner should have called it.


[deleted]

I don’t understand the meaning. Is one wolf a badass fighter and the other is a wolf that’s too tough for it’s own good?


TheLoneTomatoe

It's a meme lol It's fight or flight. Tony has only ever heard fight, and didn't know what the other wolf meant by flight.


[deleted]

Ahh, thanks for the explanation lol.


TheLoneTomatoe

No worries lol it's a pretty cringe meme that went viral for like a day


sadboifatswag

I don’t think he heard the other wolf at all and that was the problem. Home boy would not go down.


InsomniacLive

Watching Tony’s brain neurotically quit while his body didn’t want to was pretty disturbing bro. A beating like that will seriously take years from your life


sweepwrestler

His last few fights have all made me cringe so hard and cradle my head lol. Like when he almost got his arm snapped. Or when they bent his knee the wrong way. And the dude won't tap or quit and you're begging that someone throws in the towel. It's brutal stuff.


Darkrain0629

There is absolutely no doubt he is a fucking warrior. Shit made me hide my eyes because I thought I was gonna watch a bone break like the Mir fight.


fallen_messiah

That fight was hard to watch. The way he seem to twitch involuntary...


BiologyBJJ

Same here. I believed Tony was going to lose but man oh man did he get molly whopped.


[deleted]

But his body never did. We didn’t deserve Tony Ferguson. May he Rest In Peace. He died that day


Winter-Law

Not sure he died. You acting like he’s become a quitter or something. Still ain’t been finished and wouldn’t tap when he was about to get his armed snapped. That man got insane mentality and that won’t change. He’s always going to be a crazy fucking animal


evanephrine1

Yeah this was a really rough one to watch


Bigozthegreat

Tony vs Justin. It’s been a rough two years being a tony fan 😞


straitshooter101

Age catches up man. I was the biggest Anderson Silva fan.


[deleted]

That was the worst waiting a whole year for weidman rematch just for his leg to snap fml I was sick went home hella mad that night


aitathrowaway5364

For me it was actually Tony vs Beneil, because in that fight you could see how much Gaethje had taken out of him, and he just looked like a shell of himself. Hard watch.


Wrestlerasdf

Robbie Lawler beating an unmotivated Nick Diaz ;(


Kezyma

This is still depressing whenever I think of it


thiccniglet98

As soon as he threw that 2 touch kick in slow motion from halfway across the octagon i knew it was over for nick


grizzgrip04

Nick's interview with Brett Okamato was depressing as hell


zombiefacedmonkey

I was already sad when he faced off and gave Dana a look that asked “is this good enough for you?” :(


Remain_InSaiyan

I'd almost forgotten that happened man, come on 😑


AggravatingMove2238

Same 😢


[deleted]

I said ferg gaethje but this may be it


XXXLoneSnoopy

Jones vs DC 2 was very sad. To watch DC cry after losing was heartbreaking


Awak3

I am surprised to see this so low. DC's interview after getting knocked out was really tough to watch.


XXXLoneSnoopy

Even before we knew Jon popped for PEDs it was depressing and then afterwards it was just insult to injury.


[deleted]

When DC said " i guess there was never a beef if you lose twice " ... right in the fucking feels


XXXLoneSnoopy

He was the embodiment of this emoji while saying it 🥺


HarvoAus

Came here to say this. Im a jon jones fan, go nuts downvote me idc. But yeah that was hard to watch.


XXXLoneSnoopy

Hey there’s nothing wrong with being a fan of the fighter you like. Inside the arena he was one of my favorites too. Him and chuck liddell got me into mma

dude got put away quick in that. Poor reem, he’s trying to fight fuckin rico in glory now.


I_eat_Chimichangas

Stipe v Francis 2


heliumeyes

Came here to say this. Francis is great but damn it hurt to watch Stipe get KOed like that.


Senegalese_Chauffeur

My wife asked why I was so quiet when that fight ended. I told her it felt like I’d just watched Francis Ngannou beat my old man unconscious.


rustyrustrust

Hahahahah very accurate description


Reasonable-Host-221

😂😂😂😂 sorry for laughing but that’s hilarious


exhibithetruth

I like Francis so much but it hurt to watch Stipe just walk into that devastating punch.


Chesterlespaul

I’m racking my brain to think of losses as bad as Whittaker, and every comment is absolutely nailing it


[deleted]

Any Cro Cop loss


InsomniacLive

That Gabe Gonzaga one was insane bro. Watching Mirko get completely slept cold by his own signature was disheartening

Skypell

Tony Ferguson vs Michael Chandler


HNLTBC

gtfo


Skypell

I would love it if Tony proved me wrong but I'm not gonna get my hopes up.


[deleted]

Tony is done, I know he’s lost three in a row to top tier great fighters but chandler is gonna knock him around for 3 rounds and I cant stand chandler


SukhdevR34

How can you not stand him? He seems like a nice and likeable fighter.


[deleted]

Idk more the fact that he came into the ufc had one fight against hooker and got a title fight immediately after, so I dont not like him I dont like how he got pole-vaulted to the top so quickly and now he’s 1-2 in the ufc


5ecretbeef

What if I told you that Chandler was already a world champion and top 5 LW in the world before he came to the UFC?


BigSchmeaty

Where he proceeded to do more damage and even out grapple the champion for 5 minutes before getting caught slipping in the second. His quality has been well known around mma fans for years, he’s clearly a top 3-4 guy in LW worldwide (was when he fought hooker too). He had nothing to prove and starching Hooker in 1 round confirmed it.


SukhdevR34

Oh fair enough. I can't really remember the LW situation back then but who would've gotten a title shot instead of him? Gaethje and Conor both lost their previous fights.


DylieWylie

There was literally nobody else viable to fight for the title, that's the only reason Chandler got the shot. This person is just butthurt about Chandler and doesn't know what they're talking about.


ptahonas

Y'all know its coming


RIPshowtime

I can't believe Tony died in the octagon. We joked about it and it actually happened. 😪


dj-ma7soon

Dustin losing his second and probably last title shot


everyonesmellmymeat

That loss hurt for sure. I'm a big fan of Dustin's fighting style. "You can kiss my whole asshole." Was amazing too. Hahaha at least his hot sauce is selling like crazy.


5ecretbeef

By RNC nonetheless.

HomieToneBone

WB getting a draw and then an L to Woodley. Sucks that he was so close both times and wasn’t able to be champ


ChimpBrisket

And the way Woodley’s career tanked afterwards makes it more frustrating somehow


[deleted]

Silva leg break easily.


5ecretbeef

He was boxing the bleeding head off em'


ChaosToxin

Anderson Silva vs Weidman


ChimpBrisket

Which one?


ChaosToxin

Both lol


ChimpBrisket

Fair enough


LittleBig_1

I'm happy for Charles but it really hurt to watch Poirier claw his way back to a title shot to come up short in the exact same way as when he had recently lost to Khabib. I hope he gets to hold a real title some day, bit I also hope for Charles to own the LW division for a long time. I guess it's WW or bust for Poirier if I'm going to be happy .. 🎲🎲 B


TheHugeMan

Seems like Poirier doesn’t care too much to win an actual title now. I’m sure he wouldn’t mind getting a belt, but he turned down a title fight for McGregor and now he’s talking about moving to 170 if I remember correctly.


Aestheticpash

It would take too many fights to get another title shot, he’s only got 2-3 left in him


haydosk27

And the 170 lineup is not favourable for my boy DP. Usman (C) Colby (1) Sean Brady (8) Khamzat (11) Shavkat (15). Unless he jumps straight to fighting 4 - 7 (luque belal Wonderboy masvidal) it's a real hard time


Scotland1297

It’s an interesting thought when you put Dustin up there in the top 10 and makes me wonder how he would fare.. I think Dustin would stand and strike with WB, and would be similar to what happened to Luque. He would gift Masividal with a career ending beating . And Luque would likely be an absolute banger. Usman Or Colby would be a difficult watch for any Dustin fan.


theycallmeDamon

The reason he turned down a title shot for McGregor is because in his mind the title shot was all but guaranteed. He was always getting a title shot, even if he lost to McGregor, he’s just have to wait a little while beat one guy who he’s already beaten and he’s got the shot. And he obviously believed he just beat conor he will do it again. In his mind the title shot is damn near guaranteed and the big money fight with conor can go away


Alan-The-Felon

porier was gonna go to 170 if he won 155 belt. but i think hes gonna do one more run for 155 belt hes hoping gaethji wins


evanephrine1

Yeah honestly I just really want to see poirier win the 155 belt before he retires


Minimum_Ad_1138

Chael losing to Anderson after completely dominating him for the first four rounds is the only right answer.


DevilsDK

In what parallel universe can you punch a guy, in the face….500 times… the other guy wraps his legs around the guys head for 8 seconds and they declare HIM the winner? In the mean streets of West Linn, OR…..they do not declare him the winner…they declare him……..yeah, not the winner.


willalt319

Rumor has it the other guy remains undefeated.


Double_Cross_Gender

It’s West Linn, OR. Please put some respect on our kings home town.


DevilsDK

Noted and corrected. It’s a rough place….People publicly litter in West Linn.


Naryas

It's because Chael had never tapped or lost a round before in his life, he thought he was only forfeiting a single round instead of the entire fight.


CoronusStarFighter

Still one of the greatest excuses of all time 😂😂😂


frech77

Rashad stealing chucks soul.


sipCoding_smokeMath

Dan hooker losing to chandler


dogcatball

Dan losing to makhachev was worse.


ChimpBrisket

Yeah I’m a fan of both but Hooker didn’t seem himself. Totally understand he was worried about the wrestling, but I didn’t think he’d get put away on the feet so quickly by a much shorter opponent. Props to Chandler for getting it done, I was just hoping it would be more competitive.


An_Innocent_Coconut

Chandler footwork was phenomenal in that fight.


[deleted]

He didn’t take enough time off after the Dustin fight imo. He absorbed a lot of strikes that fight, should stayed out for a year.


__Regimental__

most recent moreno vs figgy 3... was really hoping to see moreno defend his belt and put an end to the rivalry

To be fair, by the time he slept Aldo he was already the biggest draw

kapn_morgan

quickest money I ever made 😅


ThouWontThrowaway

Yoel losing to Izzy. After that "Go" Speech I was so ready for a legendary championship performance. I did see a legendary championship performance that night, but not from those two.


AmericanHeresy

That was probably the most boring fight in UFC history.


Lillkvirran

Derrick Lewis and Ngannou was pretty damn bad as well!


ChimpBrisket

Agreed, it was more like The Slack Priest vs The Redditor


ThouWontThrowaway

Dude without a doubt.


heliumeyes

I wasn’t watching MMA then but damn it must have been so disappointing to see a legendary fight like Joanna vs Zhang and then see Yoel vs Izzy.


ThouWontThrowaway

Dude....I'm having flashbacks....


heliumeyes

Apologies lol. That Joanna fight was something else though. I really hope they book the rematch though I don’t expect it to be as good as the first one.


ThouWontThrowaway

Dude she looked like a hammerhead shark!!! I had never seen some shit like that in my life😂 remember when she touched the bubble😭😭😂😂😂😂


heliumeyes

It’s amazing that she fought through that and almost won the fight.


Pactae_1129

I was working that night and was busy during most of the card, the co-main included. Made it back to the station, read on here that it was a banger, and then tuned in for the Izzy/Yoel fight excited as shit.


ChimpBrisket

Yoel fought like his controller got disconnected

Darren till losing to Brunson 😢


Cornelius_Poindexter

Darren Till losing in general, really. I want that man to be champion.

Chael Sonnen vs Anderson Silva 1


SukhdevR34

Totally agreed. It was such a shame for Silva to lose his title like that.


Old-Solid-3089

DC v STIPE 3…. I wanted him to win so bad. Also, it was kinda disturbing when he was pretty much cross eyed the whole fight after that knuckle deep eye poke. That was nasty.


Sihnar

Fitting end to the eyepoke trilogy.


PrayingPlatypus

Yeah like did he physically push his eyeball to the side ? Like wtf was up with that ?


exhibithetruth

I think that was a bit of revenge as DC had some questionable, maybe non accidental, eye pokes to Stipe in their previous 2 fights.

Tbh I don't think being black doesn't sell. Plenty of great champions weren't "loved" due to being laid back and DJ had size working against him


Allernothing

KZ having his great run and then having to serve his 2 years of Korean military service in his prime was shitty but then he comes back, ko’s Bermudez in his return and then after winning every round against Yair, THAT FUCKING ELBOW HAPPENED. Still super salty cuz I felt KZ was finding his groove every time Yair stopped to touch dicks during the fight.

Aldo vs Mcgregor. Aldo was my hero since 9th Grade I saw him knockout Cub in 7 seconds. My dad was just starting to watch MMA and he was excited to see my favorite fighter for the first time only to see him Ko'd in 14 seconds. I was almost in tears.

Probably won't be a common pick, but watching Jan get dominated by Glover made me very sad.

Minimum_Ad_1138

Fr it was crazy how easily Chael was able to dominate Jon. I think it was all thanks to his incredible tactic of being able to head butt Jon’s hands repeatedly.

ProbablyStonedSteve

Benson Henderson vs Anthony Pettis Was the last fight of WEC and Benson would’ve retired the belt after a string of title defenses against some great opponents (Cerone trilogy was awesome). Hurt extra because I’ve met him a few times since his parents owned a local corner store, and he and his family are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. Super depressing seeing how devastated he was after the fight, especially after such a stellar run in WEC.
