***OFFICIAL*** Sherdog Sanctioned PBC Wilder v Ortiz II RBR 11/23

After the dust settled, Deontay Wilder and Luis Ortiz both made weight with ease for their upcoming heavyweight rematch.

Wilder (41-0-1, 40 KOs) weighed in at 219.5 pounds as he makes his second walk to the ring in 2019 as he battles Ortiz (236.5). The WBC heavyweight champ is coming off of a vicious first-round...

Asking for a friend.

Amanda Nunes blitzing Cyborg is the 2nd most shocking MMA moment of all time

Did anyone expect Nunes to win the way she did? Literally went into Cyborg's bread and butter and DOMINATED her. WMMA goat. This Nunes would be able to trash a 128 pound Bruce Lee in a straight up MMA match.

Worst thing about MMA

Guys avoiding strikes and then taunting, to only continue avoiding more strikes. If your going to taunt after good defence, the point is to strike back.

Nothing more triggering than a fighter thinking he is the shit because he is walking back the way not getting hit.

*cough* Bobby Green. You deserved to lose that fight.

Taunt if you are actually good and pro - active please, other wise fuck off.

Bored of these try-hards masquerading as high level fighters.

Your top 5 fighters you'll miss when they retire? (Cub Swanson & Kenny Florian talk about theirs)

This is quite a hard one really because there's so many fighters that once they're gone you will miss them when they're no longer fighting.

Remember this might not always be the fighters you like personally, for example Jon Jones is a controversial one but when he is gone you'll be surprised at how many people will actually miss him.

However as always remember this is YOUR list so it's all subjective to you. For me it would be Cub Swanson, Al Iaquinta and Justin Gaethje as...

Why don't UFC fighters train their chins with traditional martial arts techniques?

Here is a video showing how ancient Kung Fu fighters used to train their chins:



It was very effective back in the day and used at the highest levels of Shaolin. I've never seen any UFC fighters do things like this.

I've heard of wrestlers and boxers doing neck bridges but that only trains the neck. How do modern fighters directly train their chins?

Fighters you never ever call by their real name

For me it’s

1. Mirkro Filipovich
2. Daniel Cormier
3. Mauricio Rua
4. Donald Cerrone
5. Demetrious Johnson

R.I.P. CM Punk's MMA career

He’s back. They always come back. Insert any WWE or entertainment-related saying that feels appropriate. The bottom line is CM Punk returned to WWE programming on Tuesday night at the close of the Fox Sports 1 program WWE Backstage.

Which superfight did you feel more robbed of as a MMA fan?

GSP not pursuing the Silva fight during their concurrent title reigns and primes

or

Fedor avoiding the Brock fight twice after PRIDE folded and all of fedor’s rivals went to the ufc

the fedor one didn’t bother me as much because he obviously didn’t want to fight in the UFC...GSP and Silva had concurrent title reigns/primes in the same organization, so that one stung a bit more as a fan of MMA. How about you guys?

Is Mousasi the best MMA boxer of all time?

So I argue to be the best MMA boxer of all time, you need to have the highest combined score of four criterias

1) Actual success in MMA
2) Actual success UTILIZING boxing in MMA offensively
3) Actual success utilizing boxing in MMA defensively.
4) Actual boxing background

So, though I don't agree, if Anderson Silva was a good boxer, he doesn't have any boxing background other than a whooping 1-1 record. On the other hand, Maldonado has a great boxing record on paper, but he doesn't seem to...

the most shocked you've been with an mma fight outcome

what's the most shocked you've ever been with an mma fight that has NOT ended in a ko.

for me, the one that stands out right now is when Jake shields dominated hendo. if I were a betting man back then, I would have bet the house on hendo. and I would have lost that house.
