UFC 270 being fun so far. Another dominant Nurmagomedov in the house, Morales had one stunning stoppage, Pereira started badly but got back in spectacular fashion. Now, the title matches.

Fig barely edged it with two KDs and the leg kicks, but still got a win and we will see the fourth one for sure. And they wanted to get rid of the division...

Very strange win. Ngannou the grappler is born. Deserved win. Good change of game plan.

Gane didn’t wanna engage closely.

Ngannou has been in two of the most boring fights ever. His fight with Derrick Lewis was even worse. Who would have thought that Ngannou would win grappling?

I don’t really blame him for this one. Gane didn’t seem
To want to take any risks. Once rd3 came and Ngannou started grappling and taking Gane down, it seemed like he had found his way to win.

The ground(and hardly any pound) won the fight for him. I missed rd1 and started watching mostly from rd2.. after that round ended, I thought Gane could just win by not risking much.

Glad Ngannou showed a different side of him.

Loved that body slam.

His last two fights he’s shown something else.

He was more calculated in his last fight and then against Gane, although fighting scared himself, and his injury, he still showed us another side of him

When is Jon Jones going to fight as a heavyweight? It was Ngannou's last bout on his UFC contract, he is hardly going to renew for what he is doing to this day.

Ngannou was paid $600k :brick:

Does he get ANY % of PPV’s? No idea. Doubt it.

There is a clause in his contract where if he is champion at the time of his last contracted fight, it is automatically extended. One of the reasons he is being so vocal. Not sure where he stands atm tbh.

At this rate, Charles is going to replicate Khabib's title run sweep, time to put Islam and/or Dariush in the mix.

Better performance by Bobby in the rematch but not enough to nick it, IMO.
