Full circle, ladies and gentlemen. Well I got my UFC Mom prediction right in the Yearly Thread but I sure didn't think Pena was going to be the one to do it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 The man with the most finishes and submission wins in UFC history, Charles Oliveira adds another. 18 and 15. Oliveira is 20-8, 1NC in the UFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 (edited) Great show. A massive massive MMA upset as Julianna Pena submits Amanda Nunes with a Rear Naked Choke in the second round to become the new UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion. One of the biggest MMA upsets ever. Top three minimum. Edited December 12, 2021 by The Natural Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Poirier should've fought for the title instead of a McGregor rematch. Shocking that Nunes lost, but no one is on top forever unless you're Floyd Mayweather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Third McGregor fight was pointless. PPV points, money, wins the trilogy. Third fight didn't take anything out of Dustin and in the end we still got Oliveira vs. Poirier.

One of the biggest falls in MMA history going from 11-0 beating the Bantamweight GOAT Dominick Cruz for the UFC Bantamweight Championship to 1-5 with 4 by KO/TKO.

A_K Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 The irony of Cody is he was always a bit of a boisterous head case & at the time many (myself included) thought those emotions would be his downfall against the cool as ice Cruz. Instead he clowned on Cruz like no other fighter in history: that wasn’t a victory, that fight was a complete and utter humiliation for Cruz. All that ‘Cruz movement’ schtick and Cody just put it to him in extreme style. Since conquering that Dragon, Cody has devolved so rapidly that he now sounds extremely punch drunk at the grand old age of 30. Is it the back injury that did for him? Maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Oliveira's victory was the 29th finish from 32 career victories, and his 20th career submission. It was also his 20th win inside the UFC octagon. Now that's a finisher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Execproducer Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 6 hours ago, The Natural said: Dana White feeling generous with $50,000 bonuses: He should have been a bit more generous. Erin Blanchfield's shut-out against Miranda Maverick was bonus worthy. The fact that there wasn't a finish should be irrelevant. Great show. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
