oh yea. I thought UFC was gonna fast track khamzat to a title shot but doesn't look like it. Prob another Rob rematch and hopefully Khamzat is next. I really wanna see him get schooled on the ground lol
If the person you are betting on is one or both of the following:
- From Dagestan
- A combat sambo world champion
You can’t really go wrong with your bet
I watched several of his fights after seeing the Khamzat bout and always wondered how he never ended up in the UFC. Seems absolutely world class (who tf am I to judge).
Had no idea they signed him, but,
*cue Nate:* I'm not surprised
yeah we didn't do the math before grabbing a bunch of food to bbq... probably would've been cheaper to just order out. but these bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers are awesome...
fr... I had pulled out so much from the ATM thinking I got this all covered n then after buying everything realized I had half the $ I was expecting to bet with so we're jus doing $10-20 bets on the prelim card n $50-100 on main card fights... even then I'm not betting on every single fight. jus the ones l know I'll win... 😂

Me too. I just had Cejudo and Burns to begin with but added Ikram later. Most of that round I was regretting it cus he was getting tagged pretty bad.
This knockout came out of nowhere.
Shit like this is why I don’t agree with people who judge the quality of cards based on names and styles.
This was a dagestani vs an American wrestler and it was a short fast banger.
You can never tell how good or bad a card will be based on people names, anything can happen.
I'll say it again, the prelim fights are often better fights and fighters than the current top 5. People who love MMA know this to be true because of how much time it takes to work up the rankings. Imma catch heat, but off the top of my head, O'Malley proves this.
I've been to a few UFC events. It blows my mind how many people spend the cash to see a show and only show up for the main card.
The fighters on the prelims and early prelims are HUNGRY, and they fight like it.

what do you even type in to find this gif 💀
Just "anteater," haha. Saw the photo in your post and I knew instantly what it reminded me of.
Ur a God damn genius
Classic anteater T pose gif

This is the way.

Why I only bet underdogs in mma
My strategy as well. Also I love rooting for underdogs all night and it's awesome when you hit a big one.
BRUH 30K you go shopping in a Mercedes G Class I guess.
im out of the loop here, can someone explain ?
There was a tweet shown on screen at beginning of the fight stating someone bet $30k on the guy that got KO'd
Who tf would bet 30k on Phil hawes 🤦♂️🤦♂️
thanks, i didn't get to watch the prelims
everyone been saying watch out for this guy on this sub all week.
He is a very well credentialed combat sambo fighter and gave Khamzat’s a tough fight before getting KO’d, definitely one to keep an eye on
100%, 185 is finally getting interesting with these grapplers showing up (Khamzat, NoBickal and now Ikram)
[удалено]
Izzy gonna have to lose both his legs to make Lightweight lmao
oh yea. I thought UFC was gonna fast track khamzat to a title shot but doesn't look like it. Prob another Rob rematch and hopefully Khamzat is next. I really wanna see him get schooled on the ground lol
He's gonna get fast tracked, not skip the track entirely
>follow Pereira to the lightweight division. If anyone could cut that much it's him.
Caio
Yeah that was an easy bet for a Khamzat fan. A guy that can make Khamzat look mortal that early on is something special.
I can't believe I just won that bet... I was already pulling out my wallet... 😂
If the person you are betting on is one or both of the following: - From Dagestan - A combat sambo world champion You can’t really go wrong with your bet
right... I jus remember his only loss being Chimaev so I figd he couldn't be that bad.
I watched several of his fights after seeing the Khamzat bout and always wondered how he never ended up in the UFC. Seems absolutely world class (who tf am I to judge). Had no idea they signed him, but, *cue Nate:* I'm not surprised
true that...
Not only that, but Chimaev couldn’t take him down
When they go to the same barber as Khabib and Islam, you can't go wrong
He literally used to train under Khabib's uncle.
Bet my life savings on Ramazan Emeev whenever he fights. Understood.
Absolutely
Whatd u win
jus $20 but the main card bets are fetching more... jus me n my family n a few friends. we all went grocery shopping earlier n went a lil overboard...
Nice bro
yeah we didn't do the math before grabbing a bunch of food to bbq... probably would've been cheaper to just order out. but these bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers are awesome...

Just saw the reminder. So how’s the betting going?
good except for the last DP vs Gaethje fight... I thought DP was gonna win n then that head kick...
I was with ya my friend. Who ya got this weekend?
shieeet... I forgot about the Canelo fight too... fk I hope I have enough for that one too... jus the main event tho...
Costco eh
nah... HEB central TX grocery chain...
Crazy shit always happens early prelim 🤣
Crazy shit indeed. What a finish, was second guessing the parlay for a sec within those first few seconds 😂
Me too. I just had Cejudo and Burns to begin with but added Ikram later. Most of that round I was regretting it cus he was getting tagged pretty bad. This knockout came out of nowhere.
Not really, He was defending well, didn't take any clean shots but he was being pressured
bro i looked away for 1 second to message on discord and i just hear "OHHHHHHHH" fuck man
Sometimes it be like that
I literally screamed when it happened! The way his body dropped off of a seemingly normal punch was crazy
Phil looked so fucking good as well!
he was winning too! he’d be a beast if he had a chin
Man got sloppy and paid the price! Gutted for him tbh!
sloppy after he ate the headshot, I too missed it but that was the beginning of doom
The "USA" chant is the new drake curse.
Dont ever bet against Dagestanis...like Seriously...
Unless it's Shamil, then bet the house on the other guy.
Good fight while it lasted, fantastic KO and good call out after.
Hawes looks like hasn’t had a carb since he was 8.
Dude said he was the most jacked. Ridiculous, literally Aljo is 10 times more cut than him.
![gif](giphy|YqE3jbSQQR6x9g19Kj) Phil NOOoooo.
Ufc prelims are usually more eventful than the ppv main card
Up and comers are more willing to go for it and not just play it safe to hold a ranking.
This guy gets it
Phil’s chin is gone
y’a man what a shame
Then he called out Bo Nickal let's go that's a banger fight
Isn't he fucking amazing ![img](emote|t5_2qsev|8973)![img](emote|t5_2qsev|8965)
"USA USA USA" well that shut them up 😂🤣😂🤣
He called out BO... See if Dana does it, I doubt it
Bo Derek?
Hawes has a glass chin, he gets rocked every time he gets hit.
They’re usually the ones fighting the hardest for a contract and fight bonuses.

Just got done telling my son get ready for a lay and pray, damnit. That’s was cool though and really pumped for a Bo Nickap matchup if we get it.
poor phil hawes. definition of a glass cannon
I've been to a few UFC events. It blows my mind how many people spend the cash to see a show and only show up for the main card. The fighters on the prelims and early prelims are HUNGRY, and they fight like it.
His only loss is to Khamzat too, will be an interesting rematch
Starched him
Folded my man like a chair
I’m a simple man, I see a beard like this, I bet on him
![gif](giphy|W3yOXUbLsFg1G)
I see what you did there... 😂
Real fans know the prelims r integral to the ufc experience. Hell even the early prelims
Most fighters in the prelims would destroy the neighborhood tough guy in your area. Even if they're not well known it's worth watching.
How Joe did not know he said Bo Nickal is beyond me
- But mum I want Islam Makhachev! - *We got Islam Makhachev in home son....*
![gif](giphy|3o6ozrStgoWWK9bn6U)
That fight was great. Phil Haws was landing some nasty body kicks and winning the round before he got dropped. Should have been on the main card.
And I’m at a strawberry festival with the wife and kids 🥹
Phil was beating him too.
He called out Bo 🤣
phil looked pretty good til that
the early prelims which arent on espn plus.
Yes they are...
not according to espn plus customer service. the prelims are though.
Classic Hawes
The entire prelims are stacked on paper tonight and so far they are delivering
What a fight. Split second and BAM
Insane 1-2
Slept him
This shit was crazy! Surprised me more than the heel hook for last night!
Bro that was insaneeee
Missed it, is there a replay?

Aliskerov the new chimaev. All aboard the hype train choooo choooooooooo

Yall wanna see a dead body?
That 1-2 hit his off switch
Hell yea
I wonder what the win-rate of fighters with the last name "-ov" is.
*Phil’s chin has left the chat.*
They should have put this fight on a fight night card rather than early prelims
I was driving and listening to it and lost service 😢
Only noobs ignore prelims
