PBP TUF 28 Finale: RDA vs. Usman PBP Discussion - 6:30pm ET/3:30pm PT/11:30pm UK

[fortheo]

That was the 4th card in a row that I didn't really enjoy capped off with a fighter I like losing in the main event. Shit sucks.

 

[aerius]

Shout out to the judge who found 2 rounds to give to RDA

Dude must've been even more doped out than Joe Rogan.
I mean, I'm halfway through a bottle of whisky and I still can't find 2 rounds for RDA.

Woodley by KO if they fight

 

[KeepItRealist]

Man, the new rankings layout on the UFC site is trash.

 

[Cold187um]

Can someone please give fighters a crash course in how to market themselves? These post fight interviews are so rinse and repeat at this point.

 

[ImNotSurpisedDonks!]

Me thinks Woodley beats Usman.

I'm not so sure.....Woodley was getting out wrestled by Wonderbread late. Usman has incredible cardio, reach, size and a great chin. Throw in the athletic ability and I think he negates and drowns Woodley.

 

[xx madskillz xx]

Tyron knocks Usman out.

 

[Langinbang187]

how did RDA outstrike WW GOAT Robbie Lawlor but is getting outstrick by Usman?? makes no sense

Lawler has CTE, so...

 

[DrGlaze]

I’m ready for Funky Askren to show these guys like Colby and Usman who think they can wrestle, what wrestling is actually about.

 

[Allingtonskates]

48-47??

 

[Soul On Ice]

Usman X Colby would have been an interesting fight

The UFC not matching up new contenders annoys me

 

[Genisys]

JDS fighting Jigglypuff?

Gonna be embarrassing to get knocked out by a man with tits.

Gonna be embarrassing to get knocked out by a man with tits.

JDS gonna box that playboi up

Rafael... another fighter that would succeed in a 165 division...

 

[BRASIL WAND]

wow u must obviously find fights with wrestling boring
Limited skill set yet he dominated Rafael standing, took him down and had better control. Usman smashed him, put a beating on.
Poor RDA this was pretty much a repeat of the Colby fight. RDA has an champion tough heart

Love guys with good wrestling: Khabib, Colby, DC, etc.

However there’s a huge difference between a blanket with low output like Usman who’s skillset is stagnant and hasn’t developed since the beginning of his UFC career and REAL wrestlers like the guys I named.

If anything Usman did nothing but pick up Cobys scraps like he’s been doing for the parar couple fights(Maia and RDA) It was Colby who made RDA question his participation at WW.

RDA pretty much fought with his back to the fence allowing Usman easy entry for TDs and ACCEPTED his position on bottom. His mental fortitude has always been questioned but he’s flat out BROKEN at WW. Colby broke this poor filthy animal.

Start at 130lbs
Every 10lbs
Send the bag
Make it real

God Damnit I didn't know this was today.

Opened Facebook and there on the feed it says Usman dominates his way to victory

Sigh, was looking forward to watching this tomorrow

 

[HCS]

He does have power, RDA was visibly damaged. Not evrey punch is suppose to be thrown with 100% power. RDA has a great chin, he didn't even get dropped when he fought Alvarez

He looked like he was hitting RDA pretty hard to me, even landed some nasty elbows. I was surprised that RDA never even looked hurt, just cut and tired. We've seen him KO'd and wobbled by several smaller guys.

We know Tyron has frightening power. I don't think he currently has any threats at WW in the UFC.

 

[DizzyYeahYeah]

At least Khabib knows he's going to dominate guys with bad wrestling and then tries to finish them.

Usman is just boring af.

 

[Mondo Freaks]

Usman snarky as hell
