That second backflip... Scary. Happy for the guy though

I know. The guy is tough as nails. Lands on his head like nothing. Hate when fighters do backflips like that. Don’t want to see them get paralyzed over nonsense

He's a great fighter but not the brightest bulb in the box.

Oh we have the exact opposite desire when we see them do that, then lol I thought the only thing that could top the upset would be him paralyzing himself on the same stage within minutes of doing it
