    Media The Answer To Weight Cutting; Is ONE's hydration testing the answer?

    I feel like weight cutting isn't nearly as bad as it was back in the day. You heard way more horrific weight cutting stories back then, and guys clearly were fatigued more often from weight cutting. Maybe because of USADA you don't see guys hitting the heavy diuretics anymore. I bet guys were...

    Did less hydration time hurt Islam?

    He's trained with some of the greatest fighters and coaches that have ever existed in mma. He's a big boy, he knows how to cut weight.

    Dom and his round 4 "control = win" rhetoric

    But that's how they score fights. I don't see the issue here. If you have a problem with how they score fights, I agree that they should go on action and not positioning. Just like PRIDE scored fights years ago. But what happened last night is consistent with how UFC fights have always been...

    Were you happy with play by play last night without Daniel and Joe

    Daniel has gotten a lot better. He's probably the best they have as long as he's not commentating with Joe. If he's with Joe he goes full retard That main event commentary was horrible. Way over the top. The commentators need to realize they are there to enhance the experience. People don't pay...

    Rematch?

    Dana sucks at promoting. What was accomplished here? His undefeated featherweight now has a loss, and his lightweight champion struggled with a featherweight. The entire fight came down to weight. So why did we even put the fight together? There's a reason we have weight classes.

    Islam won the decision, Volk won the fight and the night

    You can't turn your back to get up against every fighter, no matter his skill level. That lost Volk the round, and potentially the fight. Fighters for some reason use no discretion about who they're using this "technique" against. Stylebender? Sure. Khabib or Islam? Absolutely not.

    Volk got a taste of his own medicine…

    Very few guys can fight going backwards. Islam and Khabib are two of them. I think it's obvious that Volk isn't used to that. Also, these guys need to learn to use discretion with that "technique" where they turn their back to an opponent when they're trying to get up. You shouldn't do that...

    Is Islam NOT as great as pushed by Khabib and co. or Volk is a beast from another world?

    Islam is a great fighter. He's just not on Khabib's level.

    Is Islam Makhachev the #1 P4P fighter after 1 title defense?

    They're both great fighters, but P4P has to finish a guy who he outweighs by 20+ pounds.

    Volk made Islam look regular

    or....they're both great.

    Volk is as tough as they come

    He looked as good as he possibly could in this fight. Gave up 20+ pounds to an absolute monster and held his own.

    Is it unanimous that Khabib is a better fighter than Islam?

    I haven't seen a lot of Islam fights. Khabib is without a doubt, the best standup defensive fighter ever in mma. There's no one even close other than Anderson when he was in his prime. I would factor that in when comparing Islam and Khabib.

    One of the dumbest ideas can now safely be put to rest

    Average is blocking punches with your face. That's what the average mma fighter does. If Colby had any power in his hands, Usman the chin blocker would have been put to sleep a while ago.

    That's why Khabibulin is greatest

    Based on what, exactly? Go back and watch Marty and Khabib's older fights. One blocks punches with his face, the other RARELY ever got hit.

    That's why Khabibulin is greatest

    Khabib is the greatest defensive stand-up fighter in the history of mma. No guy at his level ever got hit less.

    So what would have been Usman's correct defense?

    People are just noticing that Marty has sub-par defense? If Colby punched harder than a toddler we wouldn't be talking about this guy right now.

    Usman's mistake?

    His defense isn't great. Go back and watch the first Colby fight. If Colby had anything above pillows for hands, that fight would have been over multiple times.

    One of the dumbest ideas can now safely be put to rest

    He had a great run and was looking great in that fight up to that kick. We can stop comparing him to Khabib though. His defense on the feet isn't in the same universe as Khabib.
