    Man this bare knuckle stuff is entertaining, but my God the WWE like promos and post fight stuff is big time cringe. Also the never ending, hyperbolic self promotion during the entire event was off putting. Paige looked like shit so that deal backfired. I don’t see how this is legal for an extensive period of time due to fighter safety, but I guess they can just have fights in states that give no shits like Wyoming, Kansas and Flordia lol

    I don’t even find it that entertaining because most of the time you barely see solid technique being used. A lot of them are just biting down, closing their eyes and winging it. And yeah, 95% of the dialogue is next to unbearable.

    Not here. Isn't happening. Supporter



    Did not realize Leben was still fighting. Bare knuckle does not seem like a good spot for someone who has taken as much damage as he has.

    That was his retirement fight
     
  6. Wasnt Leben reffing for a minute? I feel like he’d be a good ref.

    We need more ex fighters as refs.

    Damn! That was nasty. Give him the winner of Yan/Sterling even though he lost to Sterling rather quickly.
     
  11. That was filthy

  14. Can’t remember seeing Frankie that big of a dog so I had to take it haha
     
  15. It was tough to go Frankie. But I had to haha.

    Obviously KOs like this don’t happen often but he’s got tons of mileage on him.

    Is that it for Frankie? Only the 2nd KO of his career but he does own the unfortunate record of most cage time. He’s taken a lot of damage.
     
  18. Frankie needs to be in a position below being a gatekeeper. These young kids are going to fuck him up. But I think he’s still good enough to be competitive.

    He can retire and write love letters to Trump.

    That was tough to watch. I don’t understand why Reem has started doing that turtle shell shit in his fights but I don’t like seeing him constantly tore up at the end of fights. Happy he knows when it’s time.
     
  21. Frankie and Reem, 2 people that should retire after tonight lol
     
  22. Reem won’t retire imo. He’ll go kickbox or some shit.

    also, Volkov gets mauled by the top of that division.

    Bittersweet card tonight. Awesome seeing Volkov and Sandman look so good, but also sad seeing Frankie and Reem essentially being non-factors.

    I’m not exactly sure what Reem’s goal was there, to be honest. Of course Volkov will be able to tee off on him if he’s shelling up and offering up 0 offense. I thought he was trying to use that defensive strategy to close the distance, but he also did nothing when he got there either so...who knows.
     
  24. Edgar: dies

    Overreem: fucking dies

    Guida: Hahahahahahahaha How The Fuck Is Aging Even Real Hahahaha Like Just Swang And Bang Like Just Cardio Wrestle Haha



    seen this comment. Made me laugh hard as fuck

    Reem and Edgar should most definitely be done. They're not, and haven't been, title contenders in a long while.
