He basically just ran across the cage at him and fixed the glitch in the matrix that was the first fight

WAR Pereira! Alex winning and being in high profile fights is good for the UFC.

I almost lost my voice. I was screaming like a maniac from the very first 1-2 Alex threw after 1 sec ha ha. I was so sick of all the comments that Alex had no chance. Now, I didn’t expect THAT of course ha ha, but even though the bell saved Alex at the end of round 2, I was one that had him winning 48-47. Anyway, nothing to justify saying he had no chance! WTF

Ankalaev - or the one(s) writing from him - had REALLY pissed off Alex AND Jiri. Jiri even mentioned it after the event, as if he was gunning for him instead of Alex. In fact, he cried of joy for Pereira’s victory. What a strange unique dude ha ha.

What do you have to say for yourself now?

I thought he was sort of sad that Alex won because he probably won’t get a title shot anytime soon. Didn’t know he hated Magomed like that.

Sometimes high-level pro-fighters are so used to the feeling out process and the high-stakes chess match that is high-level fighting, they completely become a deer in headlights when someone just turns it into a street and charges forward with 100% forward pressure and reckless abandon.

Someone like Alex can do that bc of his knockout power. But at the same time, this could have very well been a Masvidal/Askren moment for Pereira, imo.

Ankalaev still looked composed and seemed to be more disappointed with himself than anything else.

Boy you’re a stupid asshole. I mean a true dipshit.

Right. Power + technique.

My neighbor has some pretty sick power and hasn’t trained a day in his life. Ankalaev would kill him.

Alex has power and technique.

Yes he showed great technique by applying heavy pressure and doing what he always does every fight.
