No comments on the Israel v Spider fight? It was fun from start to finish. Israel clearly won the fight, but Anderson had his moments.

The only wtf about it was Anderson apparently 'not' retiring at the end of the fight.

He clearly likes fighting, doesn't mind the money, and doesn't care about his record any more. I can respect all of that. He seems to be keeping it together enough not to be a health hazard for himself, so as long as he and the UFC think they can make money and put on fun fights, more power to them.

Israel didn't look like the next contender for Bobby Knuckles. Have him and Kelvin go at it while whitaker recovers, or some other top 5 MW. He looked entirely average against a over the hill anderson who was still clowning.

Speaking at the UFC 234 post-fight press conference, Dana White addressed Nurmagomedov’s recent statements, saying that Khabib will not be allowed to sit on the sideline and hold the lightweight division up for a year.

“Guys can’t sit out and wait that long when you have the title,” White said. “You can’t do it. So if that’s true and he’s going to do that, then we’d have to figure out something else and you start looking at whether it’s Conor McGregor-Tony Ferguson or one of these other guys.”

I got my money's worth. Great exhibition of skill by Silva and he took Israel's best shots and made an ass out of him in the process.

Israel hype is over.

it was just tiring, bitches like DC and stylebender give Silva old man respect when Silva KTFO Bisping w/ that tiger knee and almost did it to stylebender.

but then you have the other end of the Spectrum w/ Japan not giving a fuck about Royalty like Sakurab and Aoki just face smashed him.

Weight cutting claims another one? Whittaker had a collapsed bowel, which is when you have a mid-GI obstruction (constipation from dehydration in this case?), your colon empties out, compresses, and then nothing can pass through again.

It's pretty serious. He could have died in a few days without surgery.
