@Chris Ankalaev beat Pereira making history along the way. Was one of the best fights in UFC I've watched in a long time. Did you see it?

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Damn never thought Pereira would lose but that's why UFC isn't he best combat sports to watch as it's so unpredictable and exciting. Justin Gaethje won as well. Any fans of the sport who haven't seen it yet, well worth a look at.

Dana's golden boy taking a huge L. Just watching the presser now and he's said immediate rematch. Not what he expected and expected a lot more shooting and strikes. He looks devastated lol
