Yeah Whittaker definitely won with lacerations all over his face, torso, and swelling and bruising across his eyes and cheeks.

Stylebender goes home without a mark on him. Just a little training session. You come for the belt you gotta want it. Fuck Whittaker.

Lewis fought his best fight. Landed power shots over and over again, which is what he trains for. Big hands, big knees connected, takedowns, GNP, more than 2-3 huge knees. One of which struck Tuivasa directly in the head with full force.

He got beat by a Samoan chin. Sucks going home knowing there is nothing you could have done better. Lost the fight to genetics.

Lost to genetics? Derek Lewis' entire "reign" has really just been because of genetics. The dude throws bombs and thats it. There's a thousand things he could have done differently, but all of them really revolve around recognizing that power alone isn't going to get him through the top 5.

Derek Lewis isn't Ciryl Gane. There is only so much gameplan in that guy. He landed his hardest and biggest shots which would have toppled any other heavyweight. He's a power puncher. He landed clean shots. Not much else he can do at that point.

Ngannou showed so much skill his last fight for a HW. Also what is happened to dirty boxing when you pin on the cage?

Whitaker just sucks when it comes to ground game

YARRRR streams do that fairly often for me. Probably 50% of events in my end. I always jump up and switch to a different one when that happens.

I had it happen on at least 3 different streams. In the final one, they were skipping back to the lewis tuivalo fight which was infinitely better, so I left it alone.

IPTV has been the greatest thing for me in terms of sports. $10 a month for literally every sporting event I could want to watch? I'll take it. Once in a while I will get some buffering issues, but I would say it is great 99% of the time.

yeah its ridiculous jumping so many rankings, but they need to feed the beast and tuivasa brings in the fans. i remember when blagoy potato beat him a few years ago and he's down at 13.
