Kind a stupid way to end the fight Jorge Masvidal vs Nate Diaz.
Masvidal was better, but doctors stop the fight in 3rd round.
Cut on Nate Diaz was not that bad to stop this fight!

You have to consider where the event was held also. Some claim that if it were held in Vegas, doctors would have let Nate fight.

I guess that is correct.
Both fighters will get Vegas rematch for sure... but it needs time for Diaz to heal.
It can happen in 2020 for sure.

Dana White is not interested to have a rematch right now and if Nate would have won we would have seen the trilogy between Conor and Nate Diaz and now that plan is derailed and he wanted Masvidal to face someone else or he will have the opportunity to challenge the champion and we will have some clarity after December 14, 2019 after UFC 245 and if Kamaru Usman or Colby Covington gets injured there is a possibility that Masvidal could step in and take the challenge.

Pretty sure many are not happy with the result of the UFC 244 and here are screenshots of some negative reactions of fellow UFC fighters and I am pretty frustrated as well, even though I am frustrated with the result Masvidal did a good job-fighting Diaz and giving him a punch that had cut Diaz, and because of this Doctors had to stop the fight that made Masvidal winner by TKO, but I guess both parties are looking for a rematch, And even though the conclusion of the fight is like this I guess it is OK I think the safety of both fighters is pretty much more important here.

Even me also no longer interested for a rematch after we knew the result. There's no more need to sertle in my opinion, Their match was concluded through a stoppage but that's okay. Masvidal cleanly and fairly made his cut anyway . I'm now looking forward on the next championship match between Covington and Usman.

Many got upset in social media regarding how the fight ended. Anyways, like I said earlier, we should consider the perspective of the doctor on why he stopped the fight. Of course the doctor would not stop the fight if the cut is not deep enough. As what I have seen on the post fight, Diaz's cut is severely deep that his right eye is closed and that's the reason why the physician stop the fight to not aggravate the cut.

Masvidal won! Diaz was tough as hell (as expected) but doctor says it's enough punishment after 3 brutal rounds. If it was another fighter, that would have been a KO. The more superior striker won.

Blood don't hurt and he also has a knee injury about three weeks ago. That's the reason Nate Diaz said during postfight interview and he wants a rematch. I think it's a good way to see him fight in good condition and prove that he still has the fight in him.

With how the match ended, a rematch would make sense for Dana. They should do it in Vegas where doctors would allow Nate to fight even if he looks busted up.

The fact that Nate was still standing after the 3-round beating could have affected Masvidal's thinking also going to the 4th and 5th rounds had the match continued. Who knows what could have happened but we know Nate will still be swinging like it's the first round because of his gas tank.

And it looked like Masvidal was looking a bit concerned at the third round imo.  He already gave Diaz everything and Diaz is still there like a zombie.  Lol.

Anyway that sucked.  But congrats to Masvidal.

Exactly. I'm pretty sure he still expected a tough Nate to come out but his camp did plan to finish the fight as Masvidal kept mentioning that he doesn't want to leave it to the judges.

Many fight fans thinks they were robbed of two more rounds from that doctor stoppage 

[tokeweed]

^  Yup cos you never really know with Diaz.  He was obv still in the match and not backing down.  Masvidal didn't look like he was gonna get tired or anything but he was looking a wee bit concerned.

Could've been a Diaz submission on the fifth...  Who knows...

I am sure Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz wanted to have a rematch because this will be highest paid even Jorge Masvidal has ever been in his entire life and he will be expecting to make the same amount of money in a rematch and it will be another successful event as it was a record breaking crowd for this event and even the president turned up for the match but i expect UFC to match Jorge Masvidal against the winner of Colby Covington and Kamaru Usman.

I totally Agreed Masvidal had surely given Diaz a clear shot for Diaz to take a deep cut like that, Well I am taking that as a consideration for Masvidal, And Nate Diaz is a bloody mess back there I have seen the wound was too deep for the doctor to surely stop the fight, I guess even if the fight would be on another place of ring Doctors would surely suggest the safety of the fighter first, taking this as a consideration there will be a sure rematch for this two and Nate Diaz is not going to rest until he gets one, And taking this fight as a note I think I will look at Masvidal on a different level for now on.

Thank you for these tweets, it's very interesting to have the reactions of these superstar fighters. But not any of them had tweeted something about Donald Trump?   That was a huge news and a big surprise to see him there.

Sorry about the image I didn't have the time to resize it but there are many tweets and I just shared a couple few, It is pretty interesting indeed to see fellow fighters reacting to the doctor's decision but I guess that is for the safety of the fighter,

And regarding Donald Trump, he got a tweet as well that he feels that he is in a trump rally at that time, I guess many fighters are aware that Trump was Dana's long-time friend so making negative feedback on this will surely have a negative outcome from Dana White.

Oh thank you for this information I wasn't aware of that neither of this tweet. I didn't know Dana White was a friend of Trump. Now I better understand why no fighters made comments about Trump's presence at this UFC.

Lets put aside Masvidal and Diaz.

What do you guys think about Derrick Lewis and Blagoy Ivanov match?
I don't know how Ivanov was able to stand after some of Derricks bombs...
Similar thing can be said for Wonderboy vs Vicente Luque match

The skeptical me would say that this is Dana's plan or might have taken part in Dana's plan. He wants to leave the fans unsatisfied and clamoring for more. The rematch might be a bigger pump and dump hehehehe.

Also, Derrick Lewis lost weight and it might have lessened his power.

[KennyXBTC]

at least my prediction is correct.


R3 KO from Jorge


Can't wait for their rematch.

next big event is UFC 245

[notblox1]

Also, Derrick Lewis lost weight and it might have lessened his power.

I don't think he lost any power with his weight.
That Blagoy Ivanov is one tough fighter for sure... never had been defeted easy, and survived knife in the heart

[TopTort777]

I wonder why people blame doc? Nate should have protected himself better. The doc has done the right thing - saved the health of the fighter.
