Ya that's what I meant, ref stoppage due to strikes not like a cut.
so hard to watch. Poor Hunt
Not a fan of miocic after that
yup, that was harder to watch than Saku - Arona.
I hope
@Priziesthorse did better with the cougs tonight than Mark Hunt did keeping his face from becoming a speed bag.

Because of the beating he put on him or something else?
I hated seeing Hunt take a beating like that. I don't know what was up with the referee or corner, but either one of them should've put an end to that much earlier than it happened.
Sad reminder of what it's like to be old in the fight game
I never thought Hunt would have any of the success he has in recent years. In a way I feel spoiled & lucky to even be talking about him in 2015. It was a great ride. I would not be surprised if age finally caught up to him and the 2nd wind is over with though.
Next week it'll be on to the next. Hunt's brain will never recover from that. And they will probably put him in against a young fighter AGAIN next time out. And we will all watch and continue to. Blah
Bummer ending to a day of good scraps. Stipe dominated him, but I'm not a big fan of those kind of fights. This is MMA though, and my complaint is only a personal one as a fan. He did what he had to do to win convincingly so good on him.

Diddnt catch the fights. Can I get cliffs on the event? It's looking like bad times were had by hunto anyone wanna do a brief outline?
Hunt got dominated. Tough weight cut. Got taken down early, gassed early, and took 361 punches throughout the fight. It should have been stopped in Round 3.
Robert Whitaker had a vicious KO over Brad Tavares.
A lot of finishes overall.
Thanks
I like that Whitaker. He was a bit of a dick on the smashes but it was all just intensity. Dude can scrap. I'm a fan
