Absolutely cringe at BMF champ status. Get to fûck with that belt man.
100%
It might be the most ridiculous thing that a serious promotion has made up tbh. Especially considering who was fighting for it.
Exactly it’s just not right. They have definitely embraced a more WWE style of promotion since the sale of the company. Likely will work out more profitable for them and more cringe for us.
War Reyes. Nothing better than to see the GOAT lose. I hope he pulls it off today but I'm not holding my breath. His length and strength should give Jones trouble though. I have a strong feeling Jones is going to take this fight to the mat, hopefully Reyes can keep it standing.

Reyes is a counter puncher. Giving Jones space and time to work is a sure death sentence.
Jon Jones is the biggest disappointment in my personal history of sporting fandom. Dude should have been the GOAT by a country mile but he has just been sleepwalking through fights for 6 or 7 years now. Drugs/booze/partying ruined him.
Was very impressed with Reyes tonight and I felt he did enough and had it 3-2. Jones was also very good he just didn’t do enough he won his rounds closer than Reyes did. The 4-1 card for Jones is difficult to see from my two viewings
I had Reyes winning 3-2. Jones looks to have lost that fire he had a few years back. I think Jones felt he lost that fight despite saying otherwise when talking to Rogan after the fight. I thought the first 3 rounds were clear for Reyes. And Jones took the last 2 due to Reyes gassing. I'll be surprised to see an immediate rematch.

The only possible way I can see giving Jones 4 rounds is if the judges were scoring pressure.

He was the GOAT by a mile before last night imo. I rated him the GOAT even before A SIlva lost to Weidman. But he seems to have lost the fire. He's arguable lost his last two fights. I thought the last fight was just him toying with Thiago. But now I doubt that.

Jones was waking forward and scoring some low kicks while taking punches. He’s tough Jones very tough he just seems to to have slowed down significantly.

No question, the goat topic isn't even close. I had Reyes 3-2, Jon certainly wasn't sleep walking he was dealing with a bad man.

GOAT in terms of talent and dominance in his prime maybe, but I'm still giving the "best career" GOAT to GSP.
Reyes won 3-2 I thought. It was pretty easy to score honestly.
Jones is 32 so should be slowing down anyway but has he had an impressive performance since USADA came in that there wasn’t something off about his test results?
Didn’t that whole camp go on a huge losing streak when USADA started testing fighters?
