That one landed! Sneaky uppercut lands for Curtis. Kopylov with the volume, but Curtis is getting closer and closer
UFC Fight Night Dern vs Ribas 2
- Thread starter KnockoutThoughts
- Start date
You would think the volume had bigger disparity, but Curtis is right there with him in significant strikes.
Kopylov is tired! Curtis won the back end of that round, he was coming on strong. Close round.. probably SLIGHTLY lean Kopylov, but it was close! 1-0 Kopylov
Kopylov with some crispy straight 1,2s.. Curtis eating that sht and walking through it. Curtis is grinding him down
Kopylov is leaking now from his eye, Kopylov also running out of gas.. it’s early round 2! Not looking good for Kopylov
Curtis has absolutely taken over the momentum of this fight. Kopylov needed that break from kicking Curtis in the 🥜
Curtis whooping that ash now..
That’s a good comparison.. Curtis’ style does remind me of Strickland’s style. Kopylov with another foul, desperation for a gas break. Point should be taken.. Kopylov using this for a much needed break
Kopylov using the fouls to keep him in it, he needed those breaks.. should have been penalized for having 2 fouls in a round. That definitely plays a factor in a fight that showed him exhausted. After the second foul he clearly had more success. I still think Curtis did more that round.. 1-1
Ref is outta pocket
How do you stop a fight like that?
What a shitty ref! I have never liked this ref, his energy is always ridiculous
I think Kooylov still would have won on the scorecards, he did great rd3, especially with the ending, but you don’t rob that man of finishing the fight when he’s not in danger
Only prediction in this one is knockout. Alhassan has big power but his chin has been cracked. Almeida I haven’t seen enough of him, but he looks significantly bigger.
So far Almeida can take his power, not a good development for Alhassan.
That was a great shot from Alhassan.. Almeida ate it well
That body work from Almeida is going to pay dividends if this fight goes long
Alhassan lands the big one, drops Almeida. Almeida on bottom trying to jiu jitsu his way up, and he does get back up. Alhassan winning and then GOES TO SLEEP!! One shot counter and a highlight knockout
Alhassan has big power but his CHIN betrays him.. damn man.. terrible way to lose! He’s winning and then bam!!
That was…🤔 FUN! That had the energy we love from MMA. Unpredictable wild swings in momentum. I was about to post Alhassan 1-0 and then 💥
