UFC 189 was one of the greatest combat sports events of all time

If you don't watch the UFC or more specifically Conor McGregor, you should seriously consider what you're doing with your life.

What a fucking show.

THE KING HAS ASCENDED TO THE THRONE. FINALLY.

I've had like three hours sleep but fuck if it wasn't completely worth it. McGregor's chin is next level and he's one of the best strikers in the world, was happy to see him and Mendes share some respect afterwards, big Gunni Nelson brought the win home, Brad Pickett (despite taking that mammoth KO) actually looked better at the new weight, Lawler/Rory was a fucking war and was one of the best fights of 2015 (gutted for Rory, I thought he had it in the bag), FOTN for me was easily Bermudez/Stephens' insane war. The one and only disappointment I took from the show was how awful Pendred was.

WHERE ALDO AT?

Great card, but the best fight was Rory and Robbie. God damn what a war. FOTY candidate for sure. Have to love Lawler heart and just will to win. Bermudez and Stephens was also great.

Not that I'm complaining because I've been a proud member of the hype train since it set-off (@PorkChop you know bout dat lyf) but I still think the stoppage was waaaaay early from Herb.
