^ ^ ^ She is (still) hot!

Anyway watch Jones' part of the post fight press conference too. He's a good talker even if you know it's all fake humble. But he knows how to be in front of a crowd.

He also said he was open to a match vs the winner of Cormier vs Miocic... At HW, noice!

I agree, it was a blue print on how to beat a wrestler, but to do it in what? less that 5 seconds is amazing. I don't know if someone has break that record though. It was really fast and bizarre, and if you blink you may have missed it.

Is this the end of the road for Ben Askren, I don't think so. He may have to go back to the drawing board again. But I'm sure he will continue with his mouth in his next fight.

It was excepted for Askren to end the fight like this someday. He uses only 2-3 moves. It's like playing fighting game and used only 1 button to win. That is what Askren is about.

Dustin Poirier might learn something from Jorge Masvidal's line of action versus a wrestler. Ben Askren's first reaction when he saw Jorge running was to shoot to secure the double leg. However, Jorge knew this and connected his knee to Ben's face.

Here are the results for UFC 239
Jon Jones (c) def. Thiago Santos Decision (split) (48-47, 47-48, 48-47)

Never expected Jones and Santos to be that close. Great showing for both fighters.

Jones did not take the easy route here which is to take Santos to the ground and pound/submit him. His game plan was to beat Thiago in his own game which is stand up. It's not the smartest of strategy imo but it's respectable.

Jorge Masvidal def. Ben Askren KO (flying knee)

I was rooting for Askren but the way he was defeated was just Shocked

It was like 3 seconds.
Jorge's strategy from the beginning makes perfect sense.

I have to replay that flying knee over and over again, lol, it was brilliant, Askren didn't see it coming. I mean everyone didn't actually. When the bell rings, Jorge is just cool and then boom, once those knee hits Askren, it's over before he hits the floor. I was also rooting for Askren, so much hype around him, but with the way Jorge KO him, I don't know, his stock is back to zero now.

I am more focus on the main event but after seeing how Jorge Masvidal handled Ben Askren it was really epic in Masvidal part in handling funky down with a flying knee then a 2 punch was hit after the referee stops the fight, That was a total to intense and fast fight and I think this will start to change Masvidal career in a good way, Even though he had so many lost in the past I think this performance had toppled it all,

While on Jon Jones and Thiago Santos case it was a pretty close fight and many had said on twitter mostly MMA fighters too would think that Santos did win And if it weren't with Thiago Santos injury the fight may have a different outcome I might say after watching the fight Santos really was a beast in the ring and have shown it to the audience, I have bet for Jones on these but I think Santos really won the fight, But as the saying goes you need to really beat the champ to be the champ so Respect for both of them and congrats to Jones.

^ It could be an opportunity for Cormier to get back down at LHW and give it another go vs Jones imo. And I recommend everybody watch the post fight interview. Skip it to Masvidal. Grin

@ Saint-loup: The fight was not that close, the first round was close and the last round was close but the rest of the fight Jones was dominating and the judges messed this up giving a split decision, Santos was really struggling to stand properly from the first round but he stood his ground but Jones was always pressing forward.

Rockhold is a wash up now.

Yeah i agree with Rockhold and his glass chin after Bisping knocked him out he is a different fighter now.

Masvidal perfecly countered wrestler Askren Shocked

Knee to the head just 5 seconds after the match started. Must be fastest KO in 2019.

It is the fastest knockout in UFC history, actually the referee was late to stop the fight if not it would have the faster than that Cheesy

It was a crazy fight card and Jon Jones won by split decision even with Thiago Santos injuring his knee in the first round, the power of Thiago Santos was evident and Jones was cautious even though he was injured, i wonder what if Santos could do if his knee did not gave away in the first round Shocked

Ben Askren getting knocked out in 5 seconds with a flying knee when he went for his legs which was crazy
Amanda knocking out Holly Holmes with her trademark head kick
Luke Rockhold getting knocked out was expected as he could not handle 185 pounds power how can he handle 205 pounds Grin

Here are the results for UFC 239
Jon Jones (c)    def.   Thiago Santos   Decision (split) (48-47, 47-48, 48-47)
Amanda Nunes (c) def.   Holly Holm   TKO (head kick and punches)
Jorge Masvidal    def.   Ben Askren   KO (flying knee)
Jan Błachowicz    def.   Luke Rockhold   KO (punches)
Michael Chiesa    def.   Diego Sanchez   Decision (unanimous) (30-26, 30-26, 30-26)

Thanks for the results. I'm very surprised Jon Jones only won by split decision Shocked

Tokeweed was right when he was feeling a big surprise...

Nunes once again showing her striking superiority and power
Well executed plan for Masvidal, they knew Askren would try to take him down early
Rockhold is a wash up now.
Sanchez should have retired a long time ago.

Holy Shit Ben Askren got knocked out in 5 seconds in the very first round and it is a UFC record Shocked

Luke Rockhold got knocked out cold moving in a higher division and it is best for him to retire from MMA and concentrate on modelling as he keeps on getting knocked out every fight. Expecting more knockouts in the next two fights.
Big title talks from Ben and Luke Rockhold and both slept well inside the cage . Cheesy

Who else thinks 'BONES' JONES might be in for a real tough fight today and get stopped Shocked

I bet Santos will gas out trying to knock Jones out and he will take him down and will finish him on the ground by ground and pound.
I am watching the fight live and really excited to see Ben Askren and Masvidal, Holly Holmes and Amanda Nunes and how Luke Rockhold will perform at 205 pounds and i hope he gets knocked out again in this division Cheesy

.

My picks are Ben, Holmes, Jones. All the prelims are over and i am disappointed with the performance of Gilbert Melendez and Ismail Naurdiev while
Marlon Vera performed well and Claudia Gadelha went to a decision.
