Are we in the Twilight Zone?
Not in a sanctioned fight it isn’t. Nothing more than a check swing in baseball.
VTFU!!!
That fight was fucking nuts. Feijao drops him, then Hendo drops him. Feijao reverses him on the ground. Then Hendo lands the bomb. Feijao at the time was the fucking man.
You do realize the referee is responsible for stopping a fight, right?
Unless they change the rules to state a fighter is responsible, which wouldn’t make sense for so many reasons, what Hendo did was not even close to a foul and will never be.
i just think if the guy is out cold, you should stop punching him if you notice.
this very basic bit of safety advice gets ridiculed mercilessly by so many posters
That is ideal for sure.
Problem is it’s a fight and not always between two combatants who care about one another. That’s why it’s the ref’s job to maintain a sufficient distance in order to stop a fight in such a case where that doesn’t happen.
If you have never been in a fight before bro, just say that.
Adrenaline means something
I had a bad feeling this thread would pucker a few pussies. Dan was a helluva fighter. It wasn’t made to discredit any of his skills or who he is as a fighter. I just felt like my point was worth mentioning. I can’t think of anyone else who fought like that and has dealt out that kind of damage and not been left lifeless in a loss of their own.
It’s a valid thread and something I’d never thought of. Contrarians will be contrarians just like boys will be boys.
How about Tank? I don’t recall similar happening to him, either. And he has one of if the the earliest vicious KOs with a follow up strike.
I know he’s lost plenty via KO but I don’t recall him being flatlined or having strikes thrown after being out.
He was the only guy that came to mind just as I made it last night. A big difference was that he was fast to give up before it ever got to that point. A few minutes of Tank on the losing end of a fight was usually long enough for him to find the door.
Thread itself is fine.
Individual posts disparaging Hendo are obviously going to be met with comments and appropriate gifs.
Would you expect anything less from a bunch of crazed monkeys?
Hendo and BJ Penn are two of the greatest, most exciting, USA representing, MMA fighters ever.

Its not nice to call names, you chubby chaser!
Remember when Vitor was coming off for the Weidman fight and months later was still elevated? Then when he had to fight clean wqs completely deflated?
Dan was pretty open about his use and it seemed minimal in the fact he went off for the Rashad fight and seemed/looked the same as ever.
Call it fanboy excuse all you want, you are just not using your empty head here
Or maybe Dan was on that stuff back before trt alpng with Randy Couture so it doesnt seem strange that his bodybdidnt change when he supposedly “started trt”. Domt you think its strange that you could tell when Vitor and others were using by how.they chamged, but not with Dan. Hmm…
Hendo’s 3rd and 4th pro fights were vs Goes and Newton.
His 7th, 8th, 9th,10th and 11th pro fights were vs Yvel, Big Nog, Babalu, Wanderlei and Renzo.
Talk about getting after it!
Hendo fought anyone and everyone for 19 years.
:His last ten fights were vs killers just like the first ten. Despite his age the last ten included fights vs DC, Lombard, Vitor, Bisping, Mousasi, Shogun, Evans and Machida.
At 32-15 Hendo fought as many elite killers as almost anyone who has ever put on a pair of MMA gloves.
Both you and OP are right. His list of opponents is crazy. One of the very top quality ever, for sure. Yet he also gave brutal shots to already KOed opponents.
