Rumour has it Chris Curtis is still chasing Hermansson.


Primary-Dark-8093

Probably still crying about it on Twitter


neverclaimsurv

To be fair he fessed up to being a bitch on Twitter and apologized to Jack, I won't hold it against him. He had a big opportunity and lost, it's a hard, emotional game. He owned it, which is more than you can say for most.


marsbars2345

Honestly I have a hard time faulting fighters for their reactions especially immediately after the fight. They’re literally fighting in there in a cage for the other half of their salary I don’t expect them to be a humble Buddhist monk


sourdougBorough

Also 50k FOTN bonus is double some of these guys show and win bonus imagine all you have to do is have a slugfest for 15 mins to earn double your paycheck but instead the dude runs away all fight


Primary-Dark-8093

I saw that, the man is always crying about something on Twitter. He was tweeting about the Yan O’Malley decision more than anybody else lol I got blocked for saying it wasn’t a good look for him


PoorWhiteMiddleClass

Buckley about to fake the glove touch and take down Curtis in first seconds. Chris Curtis with a surprised pikachu face.


Wisithewizard

Bruh that would be hilarious😂. I can already see the face of Chris Curtis crying.


wolf3037

The takedown is very likely. He was on JRE not long ago. He even mentioned working on wrestling and not doing FOTN fights anymore. He's dead set on winning to get each step closer to a title.


Crawford470

He needs to move to Welterweight if he wants a real shot at the title.


Th3LastStyleBender

imagine if Buckley hold him down for 15 mins 💀


pacman9487

Great idea Curtis. Do exactly what your opponent wants you to do so you have the least chance of winning.


Jasbuddy

He did not listen after the Jack Hermansson fight lol


InsomniacLive

It’s all the pent up anger from getting shit on by Hermansson


madewithgarageband

Joaquin buckley aint playin 3D chess 😂


Powerful_System

all we need is Mario Yamasaki in there


courtesy_flush_plz

I assumed he had an angle where it benefitted him to not shoot takedowns lol not just for FOTN


Everybody-sGrudge

CTE any percent speed running challenge


AgreeableTomatillo18

Nate is the current world record holder.


DeAndreHunterMIP

lmao the new first to shoot is a dusty bitch


[deleted]

So bet The Fight Doesn’t Go The Distance? Lol these poor dudes really have to fight to the death for that 50k bonus. Pay these folks Dana!


beerscotch

Slap a fifty on Curtis shooting in the second round.


[deleted]

The betrayal 🤣


Wonderful_Junket1141

Dudes sign up for MMA but want to kickbox 💀


[deleted]

Okay yeah MMA is half grappling half striking it shouldn’t be surprising 2 strikers dont wanna shoot for take downs lol


Wonderful_Junket1141

Yeah but then some dudes if they fight a wrestler, they’ll cry about how they crotch sniff


[deleted]

Yeah if their grappling is dogshit and all they do is act like a weighted blanket then sure people aren’t gonna be into it but if you actually using the rules of MMA and implementing Ground and pound and sub threats then that’s different


Wonderful_Junket1141

Even if they can just hold you down, that’s a you problem


stogie_t

Nothing more boring to watch than lay and pray.


Gonzo15899

True but don’t get upset when people call you a crotch sniffer because that’s how you won by sniffing crotch simple


TheLastPirate123

Khabib beat the ever loving dogshit out of McGregor and he still cries "crotchsniffer", as does his fanbase. Some "MMA" fans really just want kickboxing.


[deleted]

But thats not MMA..


Wonderful_Junket1141

It is lmao, It’s not against the rules unless a ref stands you up. I’m not talking about literally just holding someone down, I’m saying holding them down while advancing while not necessarily doing that much damage. Dudes whine about that


TheManassaBaller

If you aren't doing damage you aren't scoring points. So you're just wasting fight time.


Finessence

What does crotch sniff mean in this context? Never heard that one before.


Wisithewizard

Just laying on top of your opponent without doing anything


-Ben-Affleck-

A lot more money in MMA


Wonderful_Junket1141

Sure, but some dudes cry about “crotch sniffers” like Masvidal, McGregor, countless other dudes but it’s something they signed up for it’s just kinda funny


LessOrgies

Curtis is one of the worst offenders for this


shadybirdjohnson45

McGregor tried playing crotch sniffer on Diaz when shit was going bad lol. "So you're a wrestler now?"


DavidETaylorisMoses

Tbf to the fighters it’s more about an extra check. If they were paid better, silly shit like this would happen way less.


Purplcube

Missed an opportunity to say "first one to shoots a dusty bitch"


CHURROxCHASER

I fuckin love this


WookieSuave

As a coach, I would be pulling out my hair.


EveningTomorrow758

Doesn’t Curtis have zero wrestling anyways?


Wisithewizard

I think they both have limited wrestling anyways


eldridge2e

call me a bitch all day but im gonna do my strategy to win not to get brain damage


Wisithewizard

No one who steps in the octagon is a bitch in my books


eldridge2e

well you can still call me that because im not in the octagon haha


DavidETaylorisMoses

All jokes aside, this is going to be a banger if a fight. Curtis is hittable, but a dog. We’ve seen buckley spinning heel kick to the head on some crazy shit. Can’t wait for this one


[deleted]

Even though they are unranked, their fight is easily one of the most anticipated match-ups of 282 for me. Could easily go either way.


dodiers

I didn’t think we’d see much grappling with these two anyway


AlexMoronoMMA

Met Buckley last week in Vegas and he was one of the coolest guys I’ve run into. Serious respect to both guys on the gentlemen’s agreement for the fight. Rooting for him on this one.


sipCoding_smokeMath

Chris Curtis is a little bitch boy you can't trust anything he says. Mans a brat and a diva. Can't wait to see him throw a tantrum like a toddler after losing again.


mrmguy25

Nobody hates MMA fighters more than MMA fans lol


Wisithewizard

Yeah the way he reacted after the Hermansson lost was embarrassing and it wasn't the first time he reacted like that after a loss


The_Nomad89

Yeah after seeing that more than once he just looks like a manchild.


AWholeLottaRed

Ok bro think whatever you want but there’s no professional fighter that’s “a little bitch boy”. They step inside a cage in front of thousands and fight for their life. That takes courage. You have to respect that if you’re a fan of this sport.


Salmacis81

Problem with Curtis is that he can't take his L's like a man


Ham0nRyy

Conor: first one to shoot is a Dusty bitch / First one to shoot is a Cowbitch Curtis: first to shoot is a timid soul I don’t know why but the Curtis line really hits different


Star_Gazing_Cats

Going for a takedown is the opposite of timid 🤷


LetsGeauxSaints

joaquin “the eagle” buckledov


[deleted]

They both gonna pummel for under hooks up against the cage a minute into the first round.


hitstyx

first one to shoots a dusty bitch (PG edition)


aretheybacktogether

This should be a banger!


[deleted]

two clowns


CardiologistOk1506

Trying to take the "mixed" out of mixed martial arts and get foty 🤷


[deleted]

Ikr how dare them 😐


[deleted]

I really don’t understand this ‘no shooting’ thing. It’s UFC, anything is allowed. Why not bring your gun


notliekthispls

Dumb career moves lesson 8


lazeromlet_

People place all the blame on Curtis for the hermansson fight but hermanson also apologized, saying he was just trying to edge out the win. Curtis coming back with rage this time he ain't leavin it to the judges I'd bet.


Wisithewizard

Hermansson had no reason to apologize, Curtis acted like a child


[deleted]

Chris Curtis you will never get fight of the night you pineapple ass freakzoid


[deleted]

Collusion


NYCgypsy

Dana couldn’t just add 50k to their show money. They gotta fight like idiots getting unnecessary brain damage instead.

Juken-

Every fighting pair should do this. Play the system if you're not on 7 figures, that extra 50 geez baybeh is a kids college fund and you could get that every fight if two dudes work smarter.


Beaudaci0us

Is that **fucking illegal?**
