UFC 300: Pereira vs. Hill

The official Tapology discussion thread for the event!

1 second away from an extra 10+ units. All good though! What a night! Memories forever

That card flew by. You can't go from this to ****** nicolau vs Perez 

Insane how for the longest Max was seen as just a volume puncher with “pillow hands” and now 12 years into his UFC career is coming off of two flat line KOs in a row. Where did this come from? He hurt Gaethje multiple times throughout the fight and Gaethje’s been KO’d before but never like ******* that. Maybe it’s a product of TKZ and Justin being reckless but if Max has now developed death touch it’s going to be real scary for anyone to strike with him

Also I feel like the biggest **** on planet Earth for picking against my literal favorite fighter, never again will I doubt the Blessed Express

Max is a gangster. Is he next for title shot?

I'd love to see Jiri vs Pereira 2

I dont think Ankalaev can beat Pereira or Jiri if he does not use his wrestling 

Also I can't see Pereira as HW champ while Aspinal is here, he is faster, 1 takedown and it's done. Others will have big problems with him

Max vs Matador let's go

I’m scared max might kill Ilia

Jalin Turner vs  McKinney for the dumbest lw of the planet make it happen

Moicano vs Hooker - make it happen

@Vandal 

Nah, my boy Moicano doesn't have the time to be ******* around with Hooker. 

Give him either Dariush ( great fight for both of them, Dariush needs a win to bring back his confidence and moicano gets the chance to climb higher in the ranks) or paddy as a money fight that will bring him lots of eyeballs. 

Pereira vs. Ankalaev, Hill vs. Jiri, Tsarukyan vs. Makhachev, Oliveira vs. Gamrot.

After getting KOed back to back in the first round, I think fighting against Moicano who usually does not Ko people and is more a submission threat will appeal to Dariush.  

@CrimsonChinGuru 

make that bratha who said Jones vs Almeida handicapped so he can't say dumb **** again
 

@Vandal 

whole iq of that hood ahh matchup is at michael chandler level

Dariush vs. Moicano as a good test for both fighters. Benny if he still has it, and if Moicano belongs in the top ranks or not

Poatan               vs      Ankalaev (UFC 301 LFG)
Hill                      vs     Prochazka
Holloway            vs     Topuria
Oliveira/Gaethje vs     Gamrot
Arman                vs      Islam/Poirier (October 308 in Abu Dhabi)
Bo Nickal            vs     Armen Petrosyan/Andre Petroski
Sterling              vs      Arnold Allen
Lopes                 vs     Mitchell
Moicano             vs     Dariush
Figgy                  vs     Cejudo

Moicano vs Dariush is good option too

@ego sum qui sum 

after his loss to Emmett, if i was in Bryce's corner i would definitely deter him from taking on anyone that could possibly do what Emmett did to him last time

Alex Pereira starching Jamahal Hill was one of the biggest gimmes I've ever seen as an MMA fan. At least Pereira did exactly what he was supposed to do. 

I really liked the Weli vs. Yan fight. If Yan can fix her grappling and TDD, she's gonna be a menace. Says a lot about her that Weili was on her way to clearing out the division seemingly and was forced into a bit of a dogfight last night by Yan. Great fight between two of the more enjoyable fighters WMMA has to offer right now.  

Holloway vs. Gaethje was maybe the craziest **** I've ever seen in my life. That finish was unreal. The BMF title is a myth, a very dumb myth. But if anybody deserves that "title" it's Max Holloway. Dude was arguably up 5-0, 4-1 at worst. He had no reason to risk everything in that last ten seconds. It was fun when he did that against Lamas, but JUSTIN GAETHJE? What an absolutely stupid, reckless thing to do. And Holloway still ******* deaded him. That is insane.

Arman is special. That was mostly a clean sweep for him, 29-28 at worst. He looked great and I think he's a real problem for everyone at LW. Bo Nickal called out Anthony Hernandez and I'll be real, dude is NOT ready for that. Fluffy finishes him. 

Kayla Harrison is future champ. Easily. Pennington has nothing to offer her, and neither does Pena. She ragdolls both and could probably do so on the same night. IDK is Harrison making 135 longterm is sustainable for her, but if she can keep at it, she'll be champion very soon. Nobody is touching her. I think when she has the belt she may be able to lure Nunes out of retirement. **** got boring and that was mostly why Nunes chose to leave. Now with an actual threat like Harrison waiting in the wings? Gimme Harrison/Nunes next year.

Diego Lopes was robbed of a $300k bonus, guy is a stud and that haircut is a bonus. Jalin Turner will be crying himself to sleep for a few weeks, what a dummy. Lastly; KEEP HOLLY HOLM ON THE PRELIMS. It felt soooo right. No more Holly Holm main events, you sons of *******.
