UFC 188 Fight Discussion: Cain vs. Werdum

Melendez has this fight. He's better in every aspect of fighting.

 

Lets go Gil.

 

10-7 Alvarez.


TFK

 

Alvarez is tough. His left eye is completely fucked.

 

Even fight going into the last round.


TFK

 

I have Melendez up 2-0, but the second round was close.

 

Alvarez wins that fight 2-1.

TFK

 

Those takedowns were meaningless. It will be a robbery if the judges give it to Alvarez on takedowns alone. He didn't do any damage or come close to submission attempts from those takedowns.

I wish this had been a 5 round fight.

 

How did you give Gil the 2nd? He landed 1 jab and did nothing else.

TFK

 

Neither fighter did much, but Melendez did shit the last 2 rounds. That's Eddie fight.

TFK

 

Fuck.

 

Alvarez deserved that. The dude is tough as nails.

 

They got it right. Thank God.

TFK

 

Like him or not, he's a tough motherfucker.


TFK

 

Eddie Alvarez is tough. Most guys would have quit when their nose was broken and they couldn't see out of one eye.

 

Blaming it on the air?

Seriously?

If Eddie's eye didn't close, it would've been a much better fight. He was fighting half blind so he had to fight a safe fight.

Melendez didn't do anything to win that fight.

TFK

 

Well done to Eddie.

Thought Gil edged it, but dont have any problem with the decision.

The fight was there for both of them, but neither grabbed it.

Would like to see a re.

 

90% of guys would absolutely mentally quit in that situation.

 

Yeah, that one jab Gil landed, that was more than enough.

C'mon man.


TFK

 

I would like to go back and rewatch the 2nd round, but the main event is coming up. I won't feel like rewatching it afterwards knowing Alvarez won.

 

Either did Eddie.
