Combat UFC Thread 2022 v. Engard

[deficiT]

Anyone follow MMA? It's a sport I've been interested in but haven't followed much up to this point, I plan on doing so now, especially since I've got ESPN+ going on now.

How about the fight tonight? Bantamweight duel, Corey Sandhagen vs. TJ Dillashaw

This can just be a general UFC Thread to talk about upcoming fights and the sport in general.

UFC Fight Night takeaways: TJ Dillashaw's next fight should be for the bantamweight title

After an impressive -- albeit narrow -- win over Cory Sandhagen, Dillashaw earned the right to jump to the head of the line of bantamweight contenders.

After getting busted open pretty good in the opening rounds, Dillashaw came back to win in a split decision.

After losing the title and being suspended for two years, TJ Dillashaw is back and some believe his next fight should be for the Bantamweight title.

UFC Real or Not: Don't expect Usman vs. Covington 2 to produce a different result

There's no doubt Kamaru Usman has improved since stopping Colby Covington in December 2019, but is a Covington win unrealistic?

I used to follow it! The last match I saw was probably Kabhib - McGregor, but I've been meaning to get back into it.

Great fucking summary and commentary here @deficiT - you got any favorite fighter?

Thanks :D Yeah I remember that fight.

I actually don't. It's only been in the past couple weeks that I've been watching the cards all the way through and paying attention all the way to the sport. I never used to watch it at all really. But since it's one of the few things i realized I get total access to on espn+ I've been watching it. I'm gonna continue watching it regularly likely so I should hopefully have one before too long.

I have to say, that Cheyenne Buys fight was spectacular and I'd be happy rooting for her, that's for sure.

Now that all the old school fan favorites like Anderson Silva, GSP, Chuck Liddell, etc have retired I don't know who's the cream of the crop..

Gooden and Baghdasaryan fights were also pretty epic takeouts
