    It was a shifting left hook. Great comeback win by Masvidal. I thought he was out earlier from Till's straight left in R1.

      Yh I wasn't sure either, but I knew Jorge has got a chin and is tough to finish, so I wasn't surprised he survived. What I notice about Till though is he has good range management, but his defensive responsibility needs tons of work. In particular, his defensive head movement after he throws strikes. He throws and its almost as if he thinks nothing is gonna be coming back his way. In this same fight he came in on Masvidal with a 1-2, didn't move his head and got hit with a 3 piece smh. His defensive head movement after he throws is pretty bad and that's how he got caught by Woodley and Masvidal here tonight. He tried to back out and misjudged the range, with his head/chin straight up in the air ready to get clipped. You gotta be ready to move your head away from the rear hand at all times and he didn't do it so...tough loss. He really needs to work on that. He's still young and learning though. He'll be back.

        Sucks Askren got completely blown over but I can understand it. The winner of that fight has good grounds to campaign for a title shot, why blow that opportunity by engaging in shenanigans with Ben Askren. He’s a lower ranked fighter, and is capable of beating them in a very humiliating, emasculating manner.

          Yh a guy manhandling you and holding you down until he finishes you or just beating you up for 3-5 rounds is much more embarresing than getting flash ko'd. They didn't wanna risk fighting Askren. Wonder what's next for Till after this though. Dude may go into hiding for a while after such a vicious ko loss in front of his country. His chin has officially got past virgin status though lol.

            Till's defense man...arms extended out (can't defend if they are extended smh) and chin right up in the air waiting to get hit. Once you dodge that jab, you're supposed to be ready(expecting) for that rear hand behind it. I think he thought he was out of range, but that's why you don't just depend on backward movement. You gotta be ready to slip too, along with moving back. That was a nasty left hook though. Dude was out before he hit the ground smh.

                Oh wow. Looks like Masvidal/Edwards is next then? You know the UFC is gonna try to milk the bad blood. On a side note, Edwards must have forgot Masvidal from the streets lol. If you talk trash that dude WILL swing on you smh.

                  I just caught up from last night. That whole scene in the main event was crazy, great venue. The way Masvidal brought that place to a standstill was beautiful.

                  I was so happy for Jorge to have a moment like that because he's one of the most underappreciated dudes in the game. What a finish. Wow.
