UFC 213 News
- Cerrone is hurt. Fight against Lawler is likely moved to UFC 214.
- Nunes got sick and HER fight hasn’t been cancelled at the last of minutes.
Pre-fight show on FS1 is absolutely burying dead Nunes. They’re ALL saying she should’ve fought, they made a point of Dana essentially calling her soft; it’s a massive public fuck you.

UFC 213 WINNER: Not the fans
Should You Watch?
Yoel Romero vs. Robert Whittaker
(another) Interim UFC Middleweight Title
What Happened?
– I can’t believe this is a main-event. Too many shows?
– Romero is what we’d all look like if Rob Liefeld were a god.
– Romero controlling through the first two. He’s using his wrestling to keep Whittaker off balance. Sometimes getting TD and riding it out for time. Whittaker hurt his lead left knee early in the first but despite telling his corner about it, hasn’t shown any ill effects as he fights.
– Whittaker wins the third after clipping Romero with a strike that forced the Cuban into a defensive shell for several minutes, looking gassed in the process.
– In between the third and fourth, Bisping was shown in the crowd ripping up the Cuban flag to taunt Romero. I’m in the 1980s and watching pro wrestling.
– Holy balls. In the fourth, Romero got a takedown and Whittaker tried all kinds of sit-outs and escapes and Romero just stayed glued to his back. It was magical bunny and unicorn levels cool. (For all of ten seconds.) Whittaker forces separation and they dance around an imaginary wall of separation. The almost Aussie began cracking the body with kicks, really messing up Romero. Mr. No Gay Jesus then ate thunder from Whittaker. Cuba’s own is hurt and barely hanging on till the end. Whittaker with a ton of momentum going into the fifth round that will determine the winner of this even fight.
– They’re both gassed. Whittaker with one front kick to the ribs after another. Romero gets hit, stops, then plods forward like a horror movie villain. Two minutes to go and anyone could win what turned out to be a HELLUVA fight. Three more kicks to the midsection. Romero slips and Whittaker pounces on top. This could easily win the fight. I feel confident saying it did, especially as Whittaker finished the last thirty seconds dropping skin cutting elbows.
– The crowd applauded a job well done.
YET ANOTHER UFC MW Interim Champion
UFC 213 WINNER and YET ANOTHER INTERIM UFC Champion: Whittaker, dec.

Daniel Omielańczuk vs. Curtis Blaydes
Heavyweight
What Happened?
The crowd began booing in the first and didn’t stop. That should give you an idea of what happened. Two big dudes fought a sloppy fight. Razor Blaydes was in shape so it wasn’t your classic Big Fat Guy Fight, it was just lame. And I wrote all this before the third started and nothing changed by the end.
UFC 213 WINNER: Blaydes, dec.
Should You Watch?
Robbie Lawler vs. Donald Cerrone
Fabricio Werdum vs. Alistair Overeem
Heavyweight
What Happened?
All on the feet except for the few times Werdum pulled guard (never with any success). Overeem controlling it all over the place. And then in the third: WERDUM CLIPS THE REEM AND HAS HIM ON LGBTQ STREET. GUILLOTINE. NO. ANOTHER FLURY. A TD AND … Werdum is on top. He might need a finish. Or this could be a draw even. (Or he won round one or two and coasts to a decision.) It goes the distance as the crowd booed.
UFC 213 WINNER: Overeem, majority decision
Should You Watch?
Probably not.
Anthony Pettis vs. Jim Miller
Lightweight
What Happened?
– Pettis dominates round one. Creamed Miller with a flying knee roughly half way through and from there picked every shot he wanted, called it, and landed it. Almost finished several times.
– Miller sweeps the leg of Pettis in 2 but then spends his time avoiding submission attempts. An upkick opens up Miller and there’s blood everywhere. Pettis sweeps Miller. Side control. Pettis almost gets the back, Miller stands up, Pettis with a slick trip TD.
– Pettis coasting in the third, dancing in the outside, avoiding really engaging and looking content to be safe.
UFC 213 WINNER: Pettis, dec.

Undercard – FS 1
Travis Browne vs. Oleksiy Oliynyk
Heavyweight
What Happened?
– Fucking fabulous. Browne dropped Alex big and basically had it finished. Then he baked off and Alexi got up and dropped Browne to death. Then Browne somehow survived. The great and classic Two Big Dudes Swinging fight. Then Alexi got it down and began to attack like a shark in bloody water. He kept trying smothering chokes but Browne rode it out to end a round I couldn’t imagine going five minutes!
– If only Alexi were a bunch of teenage skateboarders.
– Alexi throws the saddest look triangle attempt in the second. Like he was underwater as he tried it and Browne reacted like the heroin had just kicked in as he defended it.
– Aaaaaaaaand then: Alexi tossed Browne to the mat, got the back, locked his body up, and squeezed Browne’s in a rear choke that looked like his head between the ground and a garage door. Tap!
UFC 213 WINNER: Oleksiy Oliynyk, R2, sub
Should You Watch?
Jordan Mein vs. Belal Muhammad
Welterweight
What Happened?
Belal actually did Ramadan while training for this thing. Muslims are a different, breed, man. Belal grinded his way to a win. He was death by a thousand cuts, culminated with a body triangle in the third for several minutes that fully and completely took the remainder of Mein’s soul.
UFC 213 WINNER: Belal Muhammad, dec.
Should You Watch?
Nah.
Chad Laprise vs. Brian Camozzi
Welterweight
What Happened?
Laprise killed him in the third, slamming a straight right to the liver. Camozzi crumbled as he took punches to the skull, more than he should have but the ref was out of position.
UFC 213 WINNER: Laprise, R3, KO
Should You Watch?
Yes.
Thiago Santos vs. Gerald Meerschaert
Middleweight
What Happened?
– Santos lit up the Duke Roufus fighter two minutes into the first. Meerschaert somehow survived and then caught a break as Santos poked him in the eye. All momentum dead and Gerald got a needed breather. That allowed it all to slow and they finished the round with the Brazilian on his back heel.
– Second round starts the same, as Santos is pounding on Gerald. Gerald is magically surviving. Man, when your talent is getting beaten on, that sucks. This suckage has gone on for a straight two minutes. And then over.
UFC 213 WINNER: Santos, R2, TKO

Prelims – UFC FIGHT PASS
Douglas Silva de Andrade vs. Rob Font
Bantamweight
What Happened?
– Font fucked him up something bad in the second. Had Silva out on his feet. Then he took it to the ground, where Silva got to recover a bit. Then he locked in a guillotine in the slowest way ever, got slammed only for it to be driven in deeper, and got the tap. That was … weird.
Good performance for Font.
UFC 213 WINNER: Font, R2, sub
