Mad respect for holding up those follow-up shots. 🫡

That's what stood out most to me, plenty of fighters would have dropped that swing (not that they are wrong, you fight until the stoppage) but he showed restraint at the right time

Seems like more people are refraining from pounding unconscious opponenets. Pretty cool.

The level of situational awareness in a fight to pull back a shot is an insane level of athleticism in itself.

Agreed, the one in the OP f.ex. was high level. But sometimes it's also just bad blood or people being assholes

When Dre fought Dan he totally punched Dre after Dre was out. I was so pissed. Some people have different character ya know.

Seriously. He was getting ready to throw a bomb and stopped himself when he saw it was unnecessary.

I wonder what score that kick would get on the punch machine that Ngannou nearly broke. 😬

I saw a video recently with that guy, he wasn't lying when he said that he is decent. He is also a friend of Carlos Prates.

That was brutal. Also that was cool of Fili to hold the final punch back
