UFC.com says prelims start at 4 p.m. ET on both ESPN and ESPN+, and the main card is exclusively on ESPN+ at 7 p.m. ET. Robertson/Taila Santos was moved off the main card to the prelims replacing Roberson/Lungiambula. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted December 20, 2020 Author Share Posted December 20, 2020 Greg Hardy is using Tybura's head as a speedbag. Straight right hand after straight right hand after straight right hand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted December 20, 2020 Author Share Posted December 20, 2020 This is the issue when you show up constantly at 265/266 when you can always be lighter: you hit the wall much quicker. Hardy expended so much energy is round 1 and never really put the exclamation mark down to get Tybura out of there. Then, Tybura gets a takedown after Hardy has a bunch of swings and misses and that's all she wrote. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Fuck. I know Rob Font and Sandhagen can put people out but it looks like Marlon's chin is shot. I hate that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Wow, this fight has lasted longer than I expected but it's been so good. Hardly ever see somebody snatch a choke like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's gonna challenge Pettis to meet him in Temecula next. Well, Pettis did just fight the last fight on his current contract. He could fight him on the Rizin NYE show. You never know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted December 20, 2020 Author Share Posted December 20, 2020 Aldo vs. Dillashaw would be intriguing. Probably would have been more intriguing five years ago, but I will take it now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted December 20, 2020 Author Share Posted December 20, 2020 I think Neal would have better served trying to clinch more with Wonderboy. Wonderboy is not only trying to create space for himself, but by landing constant barrages, he's trying to slowly break down your defense to take away your confidence. It appeared early on he was very successful at that because Neal was throwing a lot of arm punches. It was like he just wanted to just touch Wonderboy with a few combinations so he could look busy. However, it was clear Wonderboy was landing the more substantial strikes. I mean the fight ended 140-108 in significant strikes but this fight was like a football game or basketball game that's an absolute blowout where the losing team makes it look halfway respectable by garbage time points from bench players at the very end. Neal had some offense late in the fight, but it would be one and done. That hail mary punch just wasn't going to land. Anyway, very good win and showing from Wonderboy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
