UFC fighters react to Amanda Nunes’ domination of Irene Aldana, retirement

BAD MMA News — Sun, 11 Jun 2023 05:48:37 +0000

GOAT Amanda Nunes stepped into the Octagon to defend not only her bantamweight title but her GOAT status as well. And she did just that. Nunes landed strike after strike with very little coming back from Irene Aldana, which seemed, unlike the fan favorite. Unfortunately, the fans and fighters alike were not all that impressed with Aldana, and it showed. Here’s how UFC fighters reacted to the performance https://twitter.com/bullyb170/status/1667754368303603717?s=20 https://twitter.com/DerekBrunson/status/1667753654890184704?s=20 https://twitter.com/funkmasterMMA/status/1667753472383651840?s=20 https://twitter.com/thebigticket205/status/1667752745552543744?s=20 https://twitter.com/RockyPMMA/status/1667750444511158272?s=20 https://twitter.com/CharlesRosaMMA/status/1667749451899846656?s=20 https://twitter.com/BelizeanBruiser/status/1667754415154163713?s=20 https://twitter.com/RockyPMMA/status/1667755141917802498?s=20 https://twitter.com/bullyb170/status/1667755118282850304?s=20 https://twitter.com/bullyb170/status/1667755449632866305?s=20 https://twitter.com/SugaSeanMMA/status/1667755652415107072?s=20 https://twitter.com/Super_Sodiq/status/1667756541016002564?s=20 The fight ended up going the full five rounds, with Nunes topping the judge’s scorecards

BAD MMA News — Sun, 11 Jun 2023 04:33:10 +0000

It didn’t take long for Charles Oliveira to remind everyone why he is one of the scariest lightweights in the UFC. The beginning of the end was a massive head kick and then vicious ground and pound. Dariush had no answers to Oliveira’s power. With just under a minute left in the first round, Oliveira found the finish, making history by holding the most finishes in UFC history (20). https://twitter.com/ufc/status/1667745339489517568?s=20 Oliveira, the former champion, was stepping back into the Octagon for the first time since his loss to the current champion, Islam Makhachev.

Well, that was unexpected. Many people thought the main event of UFC Vegas 73 would be a grappler’s quick finish, but instead, the grappler turned into a striker and we got an incredible WMMA bout.

BAD MMA News — Sun, 26 Feb 2023 23:24:56 +0000

The fight was named “The Truth” and the truth was told in more ways than one.

Now conventional wisdom begs the question, “How does this fight between two rookies headline a card with a world championship bout and seasoned professionals on it?”, but alias, Paul and Fury with the event on their shoulders sold the tickets, sold the pay per views, and solved a major issue with modern day boxing
