Also Anderson Silva vs Travis Lutter

Nah, that ended up being a non title fight due to Lutter missing weight, but since Silva already had the belt not the same situation.

 

[Infernostew]

Pushing for Max. I really want to see him fight Aldo.

 

[Oscar]

Has there every been a title fight where only one dude can actually win the belt?


The only time I can think of is Matt Hughes vs Joe Riggs?? My memory is fuzzy

Rumor has it GSP missed weight in his title defense against Nick Diaz, but the Canadian Athletic Comission let it slide because GSP is god.

[ldcommando]

Got Max on this one.

 

[Levito]

I'm a big Pettis fan but dude is too big for FW, he looked straight up ill when I saw him at the UFC event in Vancouver a couple months back.

Also Anderson Silva vs Travis Lutter

That too! I knew I forgot one.

Err guess not

Hmm I knew Lutter missed weight but for some reason I thought they kept it as a 5 round fight and counted it as a title defense for Anderson just Lutter couldn't win the belt if he was victorious. Guess I misremembered

Love how on the Countdown shows Pettis couldn't talk enough about having his nutritionist living with him so that he makes weight.

Love how on the Countdown shows Pettis couldn't talk enough about having his nutritionist living with him so that he makes weight.

Or the video of him on fight week eating a big ass steak with eggs as well. Sure seems he watching that weight closely huh

You've seen me on salads, now see me on steaks.

 

[Chumley]

Holloway is winning this.

 

[jay23]

Holloway by TKO? Yeah, that's what I'm going with.

Idk about that.. Pettis has one of the best chins in the UFC.

 

[Levito]

Man even though Pettis is young the dude has been fighting forever. That Showtime kick feels like yesterday.

 

[Infernostew]

Oh fuck off Pettis you overweight cunt

 

[Chumley]

Man even thought Pettis is young the dude is fighting forever. That Showtime kick feels like yesterday.

Can't believe he's only 29, I thought he was in his 30's by now

 

[zewone]

I think Pettis took the first.

 

[Obliterator]

very close first round

 

[Oscar]

Panicked wrestler Pettis at the end there.

Fight is shifting towards Holloway.

 

[Chumley]

Pettis probably took the first but he's fucksville if this goes into Round 4 and 5.

 

[Infernostew]

1-0 Max for me

 

[Levito]

I think Pettis won the 1st but he looks kinda tired already?

 

[Obliterator]

This fight kind of looks like a sparring match to me. Neither guy is opening up much at all.

 

[Rumblebones]

Showtime needs to actually show up.

 

[zewone]

Holloway took the second.

 

[NomarTyme]

This shit is over.

 

[Chumley]

Pettis is fucked.

 

[Oscar]

This fight kind of looks like a sparring match to me. Neither guy is opening up much at all.

Two counter strikers fighting does that.

Pettis got put on his ass earlier in the round.

20-18 Max imo.

 

[Obliterator]

Fight is over Pettis hand is broken.

 

[Infernostew]

2-0 Holloway

 

[iddqd]

Fucking Pettis

 

[NomarTyme]

Right in the jimmies!

 

[Oscar]

Remember when Faber broke both of his hands so he spent the rest of the bout throwing elbows? Lmao.

 

[Obliterator]

Remember when Faber broke both of his hands so he spent the rest of the bout throwing elbows? Lmao.

Faber is a tough mofo

 

[Rhaknar]

Remember when Faber broke both of his hands so he spent the rest of the bout throwing elbows? Lmao.

Is this true? Lol

 

[alpinestars1980]

Is this true? Lol

Yep.

 

[Obliterator]

Is this true? Lol

Yes. Broke both his hands by the 2nd round and kept fighting all the way through 5 full rounds using just kicks and elbows

 

[Levito]

Max just ragdolled Pettis, that was great haha

 

[zewone]

Fight is over Pettis hand is broken.

Conor beat Max with a torn ACL. Anything is possible.

 

[Dysun]

Pettis injuries strike again

This fight is a lot less interesting than I expected


WELP

 

[Obliterator]

Conor beat Max with a torn ACL. Anything is possible.

No doubt but Conor is a lot better fighter than Pettis is. I just don't think he has much shot of winning this with a broken hand, especially because I'm not sure he could win it even fresh

Edit - welp and there we go

 

[Chumley]

Domination

 

[NomarTyme]

Max is a fucking beast.

 

[Rumblebones]

Fair play to Pettis and Max. Dude stayed in there as long as he could with a broken hand.

 

[iddqd]

Goldie "He is not going to let him up from this position"
Lets him up right away and finishes the fight.
Goodbye Goldie, go home and be a family man.

 

[Chesskid1]

1-4

 

[Levito]

FUCK YEAH GO MAX THAT WAS AWESOME

 

[Infernostew]

Well... good that it ended in a finish... pretty disappointing fight

 

[BadAss2961]

Might be Bellator time for Pettis.

 

[Oscar]

Max Holloway TKO's Showtime Pettis, what a time to be alive.

 

[Dysun]

Pettis has to be one the biggest falls from the top ever

 

[zewone]

Holloway by TKO? Yeah, that's what I'm going with.

Idk about that.. Pettis has one of the best chins in the UFC.

Ayyy LMAO

For real though. Didn't see that happening.
