Thanks for tapping in to The Life N Times Network !
Last weekend’s UFC card delivered exactly what fans crave: chaos, comebacks, and clean finishes. Gabriel Bonfim capped the night with a statement, chopping down Randy Brown with brutal leg kicks before detonating a fight-ending knee down the middle to secure a highlight-reel knockout in the main event. Earlier, Joseph Morales snatched a slick first-round guillotine, Uroš Medić and Chris Padilla both poured on relentless pressure for emphatic TKOs, and Christian Leroy Duncan added his own violent stoppage to the reel. Even the prelims stayed hot, with gritty decisions, rapid-fire submissions, and prospect-making performances that turned what looked like a quiet Apex show on paper into one of those sleeper cards people will point back to as “way better than expected.”

Listen, we had UFC Vegas 111.
It was an amazing card.

Lots of finishes.
Lots of KOs, TKOs, subs, moresubs than Subway, more violence
than a trolley.
More, more interruptions than adebate, more defeats than
defeatism.
It was a great fucking card.
And it was free.
(00:41):
It was on UFC.
It was on ESPN.
And I really, really, reallylike cards like this is what
creates fighters, right?
Like Chris Padilla put on ashowcase.
I think Dana White is wrong fornot paying that man.
It is crazy for him not to getpaid after a TKO round two.
(01:01):
That's how you know they wantedthe other guy to win.
Sorry.
That's just how it is in theUFC.
They got some shit going on.
UFC's getting sued and shit.
UFC might just get someracketeering charges.
NBA got hit with some shit.
UFC's going to get hit with thisas well.
Fighters are taking dives.
Fighters are taking money on theside.
Fighters are being pushed to theside.
(01:23):
Some fighters are being forcedto fight.
Even if they're injured, there'sa lot of CD, ugly shit going on
with the UFC, and I can't waitfor it to be exposed.
Now, to get into the fight, thefight.
Number 59.
We have an amazing card, butlet's talk about Jamal.
Emers getting that W over Hyder.
(01:45):
Listen, man, that guy takes alot, a lot of shots.
I've been watching this guy fora while.
He takes a lot of damage in hisfights, and I'm worried about
him.
Jamal took him down when hewanted, took out that gas tank,
and even out struck him on thefeet.
It was crazy to see, but that'show UFC is, right?
When there's a skill gap orthere's a ability you haven't
(02:08):
worked enough, people are goingto expose you.
And you can't get it back.
Now, Marcellos is on athree-fight win streak.
He beat Ricky Simone.
He beat Peyton Talblett.
He beat a former champion.
(02:28):
He might be fighting for thatbelt next.
A lot of people are talkingabout this and that.
He might be next up.
Now, get into the main card.
We got Christian Leroy Duncangetting Marco Tulio out of
there.
Round two, TKO.
He came out there like a bet outof hell.
He came out there like the rentwas due.
(02:50):
He came out there like he hassomething to prove.
The middleweight division iscrazy right now.
There's a ton of fighters, tonof former champions, ton of
competition in that division.
It's blown wide open right nowwith RDR out, with Bone Nickel
coming off of a loss.
So all these big names takinglosses or getting beat by
(03:14):
younger fighters.
I want to see what Christian cando because he's a great fighter,
great hands, got an eye poke,still knocked this guy out.
And we're going to see theevolution of the middleweight
division.
The middleweight division, allthe divisions in UFC are hotly
contested.
(03:35):
Anybody's fortune can change inone night.
Speaking of one night, I stillbelieve Chris Padilla deserves
that 50K bonus.
He's out there fighting for hisfamily.
He pleaded for it.
He asked for it.
I don't think he should havedone all that.
He got the KO.
And he and his opponent missweight.
Like his opponent missed weight.
(03:56):
He got to take the TKO.
And y'all are mad at him?
Like y'all can't give him 50K?
When his opponent misses weight,when he performs well, fuck
that, man.
That's trash.
It's trash.
Like you can't take that back,Dana.
You can't get points like that.
You're supposed to rewardfighters for doing their fucking
(04:19):
job, bro.
He got in there, got him out,and he also beat a guy that I
wouldn't say cheated, but hecame in there heavier.
He didn't have to worry aboutthe extra discipline.
He had to worry about this orthat.
He got to chill out.
And he got knocked out for it.
Shout out to Chris Modilla forthat.
(04:39):
Great, great, great PKO.
He was very patient, took histime, dealt with the boxing, hit
the body, and then once he gottired, it was over.
Now, we got Urus versus Muslim.
Bro, it was crazy.
Punches and bunches.
(05:00):
And the guy he was fighting hadmore experience fighting than
his opponent had living.
So shout out to Oris for the TKOin the round one.
It was crazy.
It was knockouts all up and downthis card.
If you are a UFC fan, you gotwhat you paid for as far as your
ESP, ESPN Plus account.
(05:22):
Gabriel bought him the you knowthe main event.
He fought Randy Brown, who'shighly touted, but he's too old.
This is a young man's game.
He never really adapted to theleg kicks.
And even though I have issueswith the KO, I don't think it
(05:47):
was going to get better for him.
So it doesn't really matter.
Shout out to Gabriel.
Great fight.
Sorry your brother lost.
But it is what it is.
This fight game is ruthless.
Seriously.
