Yep, I saw it. I love MMA or UFC. After I started watching UFC i couldn't watch boxing anymore because it was so boring to me.

Agree. I rarely watch boxing anymore.... love MMA

That fking guy was brutal with an open hand. Ive seen him beat the crap outta guys with open-hand punches. Only guy i ever seen do that.

the Gracie Bros outclass the Diaz Bros and would have whooped him head to head , Gracie vs Diaz

I just read something about an MMA fighter that killed a US Soldier in a bar fight

wanna see some great boxing?

watch the Gatti vs Ward Trilogy

greatest fights ever

The Fighter is a pretty good movie too if you haven’t seen it. The Lowell girl accents on the Ward sisters and their mother is spot on. They remind me of tenants I have in a multi family in Woh-stah…

In UFC 1, Gracie gets a hold of his opponents long hair and doesn’t let go until he taps. I think groin kicks and eye gouges were the only tactics against the rules. Pretty interesting fights before fighters cross trained in multidisciplines. BJJ ruled the day. Now wrestlers with great striking (like Coture) are the belt holders for the most part.

Toe to toe punches in the face

By the way the fight will be held in Dallas.

Recently usyk vs Joshua both fights
Usyk was an overwhelming underdog and considered overmatched by a 6ft 6in 250 lb Anthony Joshua. Usyk boxed the big mans ears off in the first fight.
Then Russia invaded Ukraine and usyk dropped everything to get his family out of Ukraine and joined forces on the front lines.
Joshua demands a rematch in spite of this and is bitter about losing to a smaller (white) man. The Ukrainian solders asked usyk to leave the front lines and defend his titles as an act of morale for his countrymen. He does. He is a little out of shape and obviously worried about his county.
The rematch is a closer fight with usyk still a small step ahead of the big man. It would prove to be a too small of a step in round 9 when Joshua rocks usyk with a series of searing shots. Usyk was saved by the bell.
Round 10 usyk rises to his feet and in spite of being nearly on his back in the previous round he beats Anthony Joshua pillar to post for the remaining 3 rounds.
Usyk has his hand raised in a ud victory, but a bitter Joshua takes usyks Ukrainian flag and steals the microphone and goes on a tirade about how he just wasn't good enough to beat a smaller (whiter) man.
Brilliant boxing
