I don't think the knee affected the fight much, what's the excuse for the the 1st round? Which was probably the most one-sided round. Roxy spanked her on the feet, rocked her, got an easy takedown, and dominated the ground game. I think maycee only landed 1or 2 jabs the whole round.I'm also noticing people talking about her getting "dominated". On SportsCenter it looked like she blew her knee out halfway through the second round.
My wife was screaming at the TV while she was doing all of that. It was beyond embarassing and the over the top stumble with "AH!" as she walks away was ridiculous.One of the worst post fight displays I have ever seen.
You have 3 wins in the UFC and you call for the mic after getting absolutely dominated? The fucking entitlement. How as a 21 year old, 3-1 prospect do you think you have the right to take the mic after a loss in the first place, Let alone speak before the 16 year veteran who just beat you.
Then she gets on the mic with a bunch of phony self-serving humility.
Pretending to compliment Roxanne by saying “She’s been fighting since I was 5...” That is sneaking in an excuse and pumping your own tires pointing out the experience difference.
Then she says some bullshit “l’m not sorry for my performance because it let Roxie shine”. You’re welcome I fought like shit Roxie. I let you shine. Fucking taking credit for Roxanne’s win.
Immediately after saying this she does a dramatic attempt to try to put weight on her knee, and stumbles. Trying to have a Rocky moment on Center stage and reminding everyone she lost because her knee is hurt.
The fucking entitlement. The lack of respect. I know she’s only 21, so she has time to grow, but this along with the Gracie belt thing really have me wondering about this kid.

My wife was screaming at the TV while she was doing all of that. It was beyond embarassing and the over the top stumble with "AH!" as she walks away was ridiculous.
To be clear, I don't doubt she was injured. Just limp away! You limped to the mic silently and suddenly there's all kinds kinds noise about it?
If you want to avoid the mmacore ads

I liked Rogan's comment about the Doctor performing an on the spot MRI.Impossible. That perfect doctor said it was "only a partial ACL tear" lol
You don't think a torn ACL would effect the outcome of a fight?I don't think the knee affected the fight much
Connor beat max Holloway with a torn ACL incurred in the second round.....You don't think a torn ACL would effect the outcome of a fight?
lol @ espn using a pic of her winning when the story is about her being injured in a loss
Probably the best post you've ever made.In fact, I'd quite like to see an MMA match with pro wrestling rules added
5 count to break illegal holds.
Must break submission if the fighter gets to the fence.
Have to pin a knocked out opponent for the count of 3.
Referees being distracted by corners.
Get that bmf belt up on top of a ladder!
Champ retains the belt in the event of count out or disqualifiyProbably the best post you've ever made.
Of course.Champ retains the belt in the event of count out or disqualifiy
I think it could effect the outcome of a fight.You don't think a torn ACL would effect the outcome of a fight?
John Elway played his entire NFL career without an ACLConnor beat max Holloway with a torn ACL incurred in the second round.....
Pretty sure he was fucked for the Aldo fight too.
I hate to use him as an example but that's two times that popped into my head
According to Maycee's camp it happened 10 seconds into the fight when she stepped on Roxy's foot. Whether that's true or not, it's kind of hilarious that you'd pretend that the intent of a punch was to tear someone's ACL.I think it could effect the outcome of a fight.
But I don't think it effected the outcome of this fight, Roxy was the much better fighter both before and after she injured Maycee's knee.
It is also important to note that it wasn't a freak injury like Maycee kicking and slipping on some sweat on the mat and twisting her own knee. It was Roxy that caused her knee injury by beating her up. That should score serious points for Roxy on its own.
It's not.According to Maycee's camp it happened 10 seconds into the fight when she stepped on Roxy's foot. Whether that's true or not
It's kind of hilarious you'd pretend that's what I wrote. Where did I ever write it was the intent???it's kind of hilarious that you'd pretend that the intent of a punch was to tear someone's ACL.
