    That was just sad. Brunson is garbage, Machida would have annihilated this guy in his prime.

    Yeah being 39, a lot of mileage and fighting 20 lbs below the weight class he rose to fame in will do that.

    Machida needs to quit. His brain is rattled. Some guys never recover , their brain moves more in the skull after head trauma.

    Lame event. UFC sacrificing legends to prop up mediocre talent.

    It was a weak event. Thankfully it was on FS1 and not PPV

    UFC's talent pool is waning, and they are doing too many shows. So you have them putting in a 39 year old, who was off for what? Two years, in with a young prime top 10 guy. That was a farce before it started. Maia should also be fined for clearly not giving a **** about training for the bout he fought in. How do you gas after one round?

    Brunson's ok but yeah he would've be fodderized by the "Machida era" version.

    Machida is over the hill and had his bell rung far too often in recent years. He should call it a career before he gets hurt.

    Yeah I mean. Wrestler with mediocre striking that he's in love with and poor defense/chin = Machida KO. Which is exactly why I went with him - But you just never know how much these guys have left. Braehmer came back after a year and moved down in weight in looked better than he ever as(the odds were actually almost identical to the ones for this)
