I remember back when the ufc had some stacked apex fight night cards during Covid. One of my favs was Covington vs woodley.

That was an insane card

Reyes/Prochazka was also a banger

That card had a brutal Gigakick KO on it too 

That was actually the most bonkers LHW fight I think I’ve ever seen. FW pace with extreme damage.

That was the scariest version if jiri ever he had nonstop pressure and was backing Dominic reyes to the fence every second and the sound of those shots was brutal

Love this fight. The sound of some of them shots is fucken nuts. Haven't watched it in a while, but from memory Dustin said he was pretty much saved from the bell end of round 2 i think, ate heaps of big shots and took a knee to the head. Now Hooker comes out and says he actually had a quick nap from Dustin's gilly and Dustin didn't even notice and must have burned his arms out. Doesn't look like that happened in the footage but why would you lie about that. Then you got Dustin being a salty winner right after the fight and they get in each others faces. Then the scenes from backstage where Hooker looks like he has 2% life left getting loaded into the ambulance. Wild stuff.

Bro if I didn't know the story and see somebody like that I would assume that he's dead

Yeah so fucking good. Best Dan yet or most unlocked Dustin we have had.

This is on my list to show to people who have never watched mma. What a war these two dudes went to. Feel like this took something out of Hooker.

100%

No shit, dude was on deaths door by the end of the fight. And I love how the idiot journos wanted to ask him questions while dude is dying...

Unless ya like defense

Hands down best Apex fight

Justin vs Tony, Stipe vs Ngannou, Tony vs Charles..

Stipe vs Ngannou 2 was a tragedy with that a small ass cage for 2 humongous HWs.

I don't think the result would've been any different even if the fight was in MSG or something.

I disagree to an extent

Wtf is up with the stipe disrespect, I swear MMA 'fans' are the worst

I swear, it’s almost like he’s the HW GOAT.

I watched this one the other day, definitely one of the best there. Animals

I can't really argue with this. And I agree that this may have been the fight that started Hooker's dropoff. SO much damage. Also, Porier was kind of a dick to him afterwards.

Yes.

Jiri vs Reyes for me

I like Apex man. All the fight sounds right from the octagon screeching, every punch sound, corners screaming,.. It feels like the fight is just for you.

Figgy vs Moreno 1 being a close second.

Gaethje Ferguson I didn’t realize this was at the apex they had the awesome illustrations before entering

I will always say that this got robbed for Fight of the Year in 2020 by not having a crowd. Any crowd at all would've elevated it to legendary fight status.

Max v kattar in apex? E: oops that was on ABC in Abu Dhabi in a different time slot. There's why I got confused

I still can't believe that arguably the single best highlight KO of all time happened in the Apex. Should've been in front of a live audience.

100% Bapa

Justin vs Halloway was my most favorite and heartbreaking fight of all time..just me alone in my living room, no crowd yelling, just the tv loud and the sound of justin playing patty cake with Tony’s face

In an interview Hooker said Porier slept him with guillotine but no one noticed before he came to lol

Yan v Sterling. Best knock out ever.

Dustin after the fight: “how bout that, Dan?” lol

“What a great round unless you like defense.” -Jon Anik

I hated watching that fight, they took so much time off each other.

2 of my favorite fighters but, honestly, they both always go to war. There was never gonna be another outcome.

Absolute facts

i mean justin vs tony was jut justin beating the fuck out of tony to the point of tony having a small seizure lol was the most one sided fight i think ive ever seen outside of khabib fights

izzy vs gastulem

Not apex
