HOW DARE YOU DOUBT THE GOD-KING ILIR LATIFI, MORTAL?!?

:D
I'm having trouble reading the level of sarcasm here. Do you have money on Latifi? I think Anderson is a stiff, but he has been winning lately.

I just want to see Cyborg finish Nunes and then Shitbag drug cheat get knocked the f out unconscious and see him retire forever. The second one is sadly not gonna happen :/

Man, Jon Jones worked Gustafsson. I missed most of the earlier fights but caught the whole Jones fight. At this point he has to be the best pound for pound fighter in the UFC.

Man what a card!
I was shocked to see Cyborg get flattened like that, wtf! Once she started trading I felt it was over!

Main event unfolded as predicted, sadly.

Yeah esp. Round 3 he outclassed Alex.
But can you please tell me why would you consider somebody best p4p when he was caught on drugs 3 times and is protected by ufc? He should have been suspended!

Also how can he be p4p king when there is khabib who is the most dominant fighter in history of any martial art lol and is 27-0 and he never, ever in his career was losing at any point and most important fact HE WAS NEVER CAUGHT CHEATING :D:confused:

No I didn't have money on Latifi (thankfully). He doesn't have a gas tank, and he's not even particularly good at MMA.

But come on, you have to pick this guy right? :p Anyone who roots against Latifi hates life IMO.

He looks like he is made of granite, and his weight is pushing the horse's hooves into the ground!

I placed some bets a bit late into it & picked Nunes!!! & Chiesa & a parlay with them both. (but I also picked Alex & had him in a couple parlays as well :( so I came out just a small bit ahead on the night)

I thought Nunes vs Cybrog would be the best fight on the card and it didn’t disappoint. Holy ****, I knew Nunes had 1 punch power @ 135 but I didn’t expect it to translate like that!!!!

I can definitely see it happening. I dislike Jones and wish he'd lose next time around to DC. I respect DC more.

I respect DC more too, but he's not getting any younger and I don't see a trilogy fight going any differently to the first two...

I would really like to see DC whoop Jones ass especially after the latest favoritism debacle. But count me as +1 to the camp of not expecting it to go much different than the last 2 have. Jones skillset is just a great counter for DC, has to be the worst matchup possible for DC.

The UFC Fight Night 143 had some pretty good fights, from the first one in the Early Prelims. Unfortunately, the main event was tarnished by an early stoppage. Some referees take too long to stop fights and others jump in way too early, especially in this case with a champion vs champion fight. I hope they do it again at 125 lb.

So, except from that, it was a great event to mark the beginning of the UFC-ESPN era.

I agree. That early stoppage was bad. I mean cmon, he was getting hit but he was still clearly in it. Even Dana white was pissed about the bad early stoppage. Let them fight a little !!!

Hardy was sooo tired. I think that is the main reason he kneed Crowder.

Does anyone know when Ben Askren will debut in the UFC? He has zero defeats in his career, it will be very interesting to see.

They are scheduled to fight in UFC 235 If everything goes according to plan, and if that's the case, it will be an amazing night of fights:

https://www.sherdog.com/events/UFC-235-Jones-vs-Smith-72027

230119 UFC135

BTW, Nolan King wrote in his Twitter account: "Dana White says he hopes to keep Jon Jones busy. Also says he (Dana) wanted the trilogy with DC at UFC 235, but that DC was hurt." So, it would have been Jon Jones vs Cormier 3. Maybe later on if he doesn't retire as soon as was expected.

Such a good card. So many exciting fighters on it. I can't believe Garbrandt is fighting so low lmao. I have a strange feeling that DC actually does retire after hearing about Jones' yet again failed drug test. The guy is such a cheat. Unless the fight is at Heavyweight, I can't see DC wanting to take that fight. I think Jones takes it just because they hate each other so much and that's the fight to make. Cards are in DCs hands. Anthony Smith vs Jon Jones would be a great fight at LHW if they don't make the DC fight

I think it'd be cool to see GSP attempt to work his way up & thru the other competitors in an effort to become champ
