Starting at round 2 because the rest is boring.

No spoiler, but as expected, this fight ends in a quick and quite comical fashion.

The very essence of this fight is silly. You get two big guys that aren't exactly technical (even for the heavyweight division) and rely on good ole hard knockout power and match them against each other, hoping for fireworks, praying that they don't just gas out after the first round and spend the rest of the fight getting booed by the crowd.

And then, Derrick Lewis, who somehow manages to be the less technical striker of the two even though he has a lot more experience than Tuivasa, get rocked by elbows and goes from Y axis to X axis in a cartoonish way.

Shoeyvasa is just that fun to watch man. I've been watching his fights live for a while now, and I find it hard not to like the guy lmao.

    cant believe this happened lol i thought it was going to be the end of Tai, and i DEF thought it was the end when he was taking those huge shots while getting up.

    I legit cant believe he just started trying to swang and bang in the pocket with Lewis lol. Insanity, no fear.

    that being said i absolutely cannot see Tai getting through someone like francis or stipe lol

    It’s crazy to me seeing this overweight beer chugging Australian take shots from Derrick fucking Lewis and keep swinging

    He’s for sure got one of the best chins in the UFC

    Tai's chin is ridiculous. Like Mark Hunt levels of ridiculousness. Sorry to see folks eat those shots, but at HW you can't play games,

    the best part of last night was Bobby King Green screaming "TELL EM I SAID FUCK EM" then briskly walking away

        it was his inspirational speech after he won. he said something like "for anyone who's been pushed around or stepped on, you look those people in the eye and tell em I said fuck em!" then he bailed
