    Re: UFC 232: Jones v Gustafsson 2

    Smh man screw Jones...with all the bs, I can't respect his win. Then he's calling out DC again. One things for sure...DC will make sure he gets tested up the ***. As far as Cyborg, she just fought like a maniac and got starched. I mean I get wanting to be aggressive, but that's not smart fighting and its definitely bad when you take that approach against another fighter that has ko power. Every fighter that's ever took that approach in MMA we have seen get finished eventually. I'm sure they will rematch in the future, but safe to say Nunes is officially the baddest woman on the planet. In fact if you really think about it and the opponents she's had victories over, Nunes is maybe the greatest female MMA fighter of all time with this win.

      I don't think DC will push for extra testing. Jones is officially allowed to fight turinabol in his body, so all the testing doesn't matter. He basically now has a free pass with that particular drug.


      Even if Jon was squeaky clean I'm not really interested in other DC vs Jones fight. I haven't seen anything that makes me think a third fight will be any different than first two.

        Yh same. I'm not really interested in a 3rd fight between them, but if they do, I wish it could be at HW. Cuz really who is Jones gonna face at LHW...Anthony Smith?

          Seconded man... Just leave it alone . Let it be one of those if Ali vs tyson type arguments in a barber shop .

          I don't even want to watch the fight on you tube . But I've seen the Nunes fight several times today .

          I don't see anyone but Santos giving Jones trouble at light HW .

              Yh I agree. I watched the Nunes/Cyborg fight over today also and it just shows once again you can't be wreckless like that in this type of sport. We've seen this happen to wreckless fighters a lot of times now. Even if they win for a while, eventually they always get caught. It's entertaining, but it's just not smart fighting that way in this kind of sport. That said, Santos would only have a punchers chance against Jones, but he's just too wreckless. A smart fighter like Jones will just take him down and finish him.

                She has also been killing herself to make weight the last few years. It doesn't help her head being able to take a punch. Holm even stunned her a bit and she doesn't have power.


                UFC needs to figure out what they are doing because 145 is already dead and 135 is quickly dying. The champ doesn't fight enough and now 2 divisions will be held up. Even with there not being any competition, there needs to be title fights.

                  Yh no idea what's next for Cyborg or Nunes honestly. Maybe they rematch? Maybe Megan Anderson?

                    should rematch. She stunned Nunes initially - it bothers me that Dana said it wasn't close or something to the affect. Just because a fight ends in a KO doesn't mean it wasn't close or non-competitive. All cyborg needs to do is land 2-3 shots, where nunes needed to keep those lasers connecting. I thought going in that Nunes would win, but I also think a rematch would be only a very small favourite. Cyborg could easily win a rematch imo.

                      But it really wasn't close and I'd say Nunes was never stunned. I just watched it and the only clean shot Cyborg connected on Nunes covers up and starts slipping. Cyborg didn't land another shot. Nunes knocked her down twice. You can argue that *** whoopin was as bad as the one she gave Rousey.

                      Lol "at all Cyborg needs to do" You thought Nunes was just gonna stand flat footed in front of her? I'm sure a rematch would present a different strategy from Cyborg but that fight was what it was and it was Nunes wrecking Cyborg.

                        Dana said it that way cuz Nunes really just blew her out of the water. It really wasn't close when you think of it, cuz Cyborg really only caught her clean once which Nunes took well and then the rest was all Nunes. That said, I do think a rematch goes different cuz now Cyborg has respect for Nunes power. The fight happened that way cuz Cyborg chose to fight like a female Wanderlei Silva, which is a very silly approach to take against another fighter that has real ko power like Nunes. I do think she could have done better if she took more of the approach she took with Holm...you know more patient and tactical. But instead she chose to fight like a maniac and got caught. I say they should rematch too, but who knows if it will happen.

                          Hi everyone. It was a great fight. Honestly, I thought that it will be a long 5 rounds fight as their first fight but this time it was much faster

                            Jones was tested on fight night and tests came back completely clean...

                              So pulsing because of weight cutting is now out the window. Is it now pulsing at random times?
