UFC on Fox 14: GUS vs. RUMBLE - January 24, 2015 (Discussion Thread)

[delightone]

He almost decapitated him with strikes his head was going upward like a mofo

I dont see Jon Jones lasting thru a fight with Johnson. I wonder if JBJ will do extra coke to get the fight cancelled

 

[Greek777]

That was brutal. holy shit

 

[Mad Dog]

Referee was very liberal!

I thought he did a good job. Gus wasn't doing anything except turtleing but the ref still gave him time.

I think he stopped it at the right time.

 

[Wild]

Those short shots from behind when he had Gus down, were like getting hit by a truck. Still just amazed at his power.

Agreed, Hendo should've had similar treatment.

 

[Bluesville]

Did an accidental headbutt start the end of that?

 

[Ministry of Silly Walks]

i knew he was the one to challenge jones. this is why jones wants to go to heavyweight.

 

[Stillmatic]

Rumble is a real problem!!

 

[Ministry of Silly Walks]

Looks like AJ doesn't like getting eye poked, Jones better watch out.

you win

 

[megatherium]

Damn, they need new gloves in the UFC.

Yeah, they could use Pride gloves, but I think they must like the wing chun techniques!

 

[ThatOneDude]

Jesus fucking christos

 

[Greek777]

Man I like both guys but it's sad to see Gus stand there after that. He must be crushed, this moment will change his life either better or worse. He's still young, I think he only needs 2 solid wins to be right near a title shot since the division is so thin and people really want the rematch

Crazy fucking fight. AJ is all class too. Damn great card tonight.

 

[La Paix]

MAn...even bigger AJ fan now

 

[Greek777]

Also, great crowd in Sweden, they were super respectful to AJ in his speech unlike some other crowds out there

 

[TwentyNineTwentyEight]

This will go down as one of the best UFC's of the year, I guarantee it!

His head and neck were like a limp noodle!

 

[Wild]

I think Jones is in a real world of hurt against AJ. Johnson has the reach to get in on him, and if connects once, it's over.

 

[megatherium]

So, how was the show overall. Any old school grappling?

 

[BrianStannFan]

Gus has an INSANE chin

 

[Tiides]

Jones better blind Rumble if he eye pokes him, he's only getting one. Jesus.

 

[Wild]

Not really. Matter of fact, not one fight on the main card displayed any real grapping that I can remember.

 

[La Paix]

Jesus what an eye opener. Two fights ago we saw two LHW wanting to get into title contention and then you watch these two dudes. With all due respect guys like Bader and Davis aren't even in the same league by a LONG shot. LHW has some serious top guys but not the depth like WW or LW.

 

[Mad Dog]

Agreed, Hendo should've had similar treatment.

Totally agree. Refs should not insert themselves until they absolutely have to. Guys train for too long and refs shouldn't decide fights.

i love the crowds outside of the u.s., and brazil.
