„W tym roku nominacje do Oscara otrzymują…” – Till, Dillashaw, Bisping, Gaethje, Garbrandt i inni reagują na zwycięstwo Sterlinga
Na Aljamaina Sterlinga i Petra Yana spadło sporo krytyki ze strony innych zawodników UFC – na tego pierwszego za aktorstwo, na tego drugiego za głupotę.
Podczas gali UFC 259 w Las Vegas Petry Yan stracił pas mistrzowski kategorii koguciej w niecodziennych okolicznościach. W końcówce czwartej rundy, gdy wydawało się, że ma walkę pod kontrolą i pewnie wygra ją na punkty albo nawet skończy Aljamaina Sterlinga, potraktował pretendenta nieprzepisowym kolanem na głowę.
Funk Master runął na deski, następnie przez kilka minut zwijając się i zataczając – próbował jakoby wracać na nogi, ale tak kręciło mu się w głowie, że każdym razem, wydawało się, że może jednak da radę, przegrywał z grawitacją.
"That's not the way I wanted to win."
An emotional Aljamain Sterling after one of the most surreal endings to a fight in UFC history!

Who the fuck would throw an illegal knee!!!!

You should never have to ask your corner the rules mid fight…. #UFC259

This call should never be on the fighter. Plain and simple. With a shot like that it’s over. Doc does his job walks in and it’s over.
— Justin Gaethje 🇺🇸 (@Justin_Gaethje) March 7, 2021
He better not take that belt with him…
— Cody Garbrandt (@Cody_Nolove) March 7, 2021
Why the fuck interview him, if he is so concussed ??

Bro. Nooooo. Not like this #UFC259

That was very illegal, it doesn’t get much worse than that. Yan was already flirting with danger by throwing those axe kicks when Aljo was down. The doctors made the right call, you can’t let the fighter make the decision to continue after taking a shot like that. #UFC259

For the record. That move by Yan was boneheaded and illegal and he should lose if his opponent can’t continue.
— Dominick Reyes (@DomReyes) March 7, 2021
Ok that’s too much 🤦🏿♂️
— KAMARU USMAN (@USMAN84kg) March 7, 2021
I wouldn’t accept the belt #UFC259
— JIMI MANUWA (@POSTERBOYJM) March 7, 2021
And the Oscar goes to @FakeMaster for Best Actor in a Title Fight and Petr Yan needs a crash course in the rules of the sport he was once champion in. Hey Petr now you’re a cheater too, bitch.
— TJ Dillashaw (@TJDillashaw) March 7, 2021
Aljamain came in great shape, he fought forward every second of that fight, not his fault he got illegally kneed. Congratulations Champion, you did it

They have to run this back!!#UFC259
— Francis Ngannou (@francis_ngannou) March 7, 2021
Crazy it took so long to call that fight. Regardless of anything, that was a clear and blatant ILLEGAL knee. I completely agree with @Justin_Gaethje that the call should not be up to the fighter here! #ufc259
— Brad Tavares (@BradTavares) March 7, 2021
He got concussed and he couldn't fight but he could conduct a full ass interview and tweet after… this is why an Olympic gold medal is greatest accomplishment an athlete could do! But hey @funkmasterMMA at least you know you could make it Hollywood. And I’m not evening hating pic.twitter.com/YNUUMRfbvs
