    its alright. not anywhere near Holloways but he was worried about being sexually abused on the mat.

    I would say Ilia is the BMF of that class, he flatlined both of them.

    It's typical of the UFC and Dana White the last 5 yrs or so. Over promise and then under deliver.

    "Lay and pray" is not indicative of all MMA. That's like saying clinch fests and marathon runners sum up the sport of boxing.

    Dana always criticises boxing for all the different joke belts but the bmf is the biggest joke of them all. Topuria starched Holloway but Max stay the bmf champ. The ufc is just as big of a joke as boxing they are just marketed the sport better.

    The UFC is to blame. They're the ones that made this fight for a 'bmf championship'.

    Stupid.

    Should only be bangers in these bmf events.

    Now the 'bmf champion' is a grappler that won it by backpacking someone for 5 rounds.

    So stupid.

    even if they drug out Nate Diaz it would have been a much better main event.

    The Irony is Ilia also starched Charles. I don't see the purpose of the BMF or rankings unless there is modified rules where takedowns get taken away if there is no damage being done. Or each round you can only do take downs in the first half and second half is stand up only.

    all for special rules being brought back for MMA showcase fights. Those were awesome in the JMMA days. Man I remember Shinya Aoki somehow surviving the kickboxing round only to be flying knee KO'd in the opening seconds of the MMA round. :risas3:

    Should put Lopes against yair, they have legit beef andat least get people going at the press conference. With out Strickland on the mic these days the pres conferences seems like a dik sucking contest with everyone loving each other.

    Always funny when fans rage about fighters actually mixing the martial arts in an MMA match.

    Blame Max for not being able to do **** in grappling.
