Gathje and Dustin were the most automatic mist watches in the modern history of the UFC.

Every time they deliver. Every time

Don't you dare disrespect Max Holloway like that.

Justin a 2 time interim champ now, right?


yes and the first time he won the Interim belt he immediately took it off his waist and threw it on the ground because it's not a real title

think now that he's pushing 40 and won it again, he's more appreciative of it

I don’t know anything about MMA/UFC, but the last few fights I’ve watched literally have me on the edge of my seat. It’s such intriguing television. That was a great fight. Two savages.

Max is not in the same league as those guys for entertainment value. Not close. All his fights are 5 Rd decisions.

His Volk trilogy was actually very boring.

Dustin and Justin KOd ppl in incredible fashion. And even if they didn't. You get fights like what we just saw.

Justin is probably THE most automatic, hence his nickname. Dustin was #2.

not quite sure yet what to think of the Paramount Era after it's first event ... speaking solely on production and not the fights.

some positives, some negatives... guess we'll have to see how it looks once we get into a few regular "Fight Night" events instead of the PPV's / numbered events.

I think it's mostly positive overall however. the price point alone is a huge plus.

Just remember these names and you'll almost never see a bad or boring fight.

Justin Gatheje
Alex Pereira
Illia Topuria
Jiri Prochazha
Tom Aspinall


155lb is the glamor division. 205 has been incredible since Poatan entered.

Awesome fight. God bless Justin Gaethje for all the great wars over the years. Top quality entertainment, forget about all your cares for a while.

Gotta be your headline fight.

I think Poatan makes a case to be the main, too, but I just don't think Dana pulls the trigger putting Jon on that card that high.

I want Tom vs Poatan.

If you like that, you should check out some BKFC fights (bare knuckle fighting championship). I think every fight I've ever watched of theirs has been similar to that. Just warriors out there fricking each other up.



They have some former boxers, UFC fighters, etc etc but overall the skill level isn't as good as UFC, obviously, but they're such a fun/crazy watch.

Except the 3rd fight where Volk made Holloway’s face looked like a used tampon.

It’s a shame they didn’t do a trilogy. 1-1 and Dustin and Justin sounds like 2 brothers who fought all the time.

I can't do BKFC. Just don't want to see ppl spitting broken teeth the whole time.

UFC is the prefect mix of Contained violence.

I also don't think Kate Abdo has any clue about any of these fighters.

Add Do Bronx to that list.
Michael Chandler is like that too. But he never wins.

Watching these highlights makes Paddy look even more impressive. Kid took a beating.
