What a fight and the outcome we all hoped for!

Please explain, because I always find it odd to “pick a favorite.” I just want to see exemplary martial arts, so I find it interesting when people want a certain person to win.

Humans often find one person more likeable, relateable, intriguing, etc than an alternative person. Sometimes people watch sports and competitions and become fans of an athlete or team and in turn, they want that person or team to win.

I find it odd not to have a favorite. But I’m not a samurai meditating before the mortal combat.

I personally was hoping the humble, savage, red blooded American and avid hunter was going to win the title at the White House….

For me at least, I didn't like topurias arrogance. Massive talent, but a wannabe vonor McGregor persona douche IMO.
I much preferred Justin's fairly humble but tough, patriotic persona. Whether it's real or not is another thing entirely.

But yes, In the end I just love a solid scrap between skilled athletes and that fight was an absolute banger. Its also great to see the heavy underdog come out on top.

He certainly lived up to "the most violent man in the most violent sport" moniker.

Let’s see..

One guy, “Topuria” has his celebratory victory dinner the night before the fight…

Justin on the other hand has delivered countless great fights and humility.

Watching Justin get Topurias corner (his own brother at that) have to quit on the chair was beyond satisfying.

I hope he sticks to the plan and retires, retire on top

Excellent fight, and one of the 2 outcomes i expected. Quite a few good fights actually, it was a good card

Wow, awesome night of fights. My predictions stunk, but some great action. Gaethje vs. Topuria fight is going to be an instant classic. Just wish it wasn't on a Sunday night. This work day is starting to suck already.

I will be the oddball here, I never cared for Topuria’s arrogance, however the dude is an incredible fighter, and even while battered he kept marching forward.

The extended brake between the 3rd and fourth sure helped him, his body language in the third told me he was done and the dude had some moments in the fourth!

That knee was brutal!

Humbling fight for him, he actually earned some respect from me, not many are taking those shots from Justin!
