WE JUST HAD AN ABSOLUTELY INSANE KO AT UFC 248

OH MY GOD!!! HOLY FUCK!!! FIREWORKS!!! THAT'S FIREWORKS LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!!

Every now and then, a fight comes along that just seems to escalate and escalate in its intensity and pure ruthlessness, until both fighters and standing and "banging", and one drops savagely. Travis Browne vs Andrei Arlovski is one that comes to mind immediately. 

At UFC 248, though, we just had another one of these off-the-fucking-walls crazy fights between Beneil Dariush and Drakkar Klose, which ended in Klose hitting the mat. Well, actually, the cage, and then the mat. It was an unbelievably chaotic and just overall awesome knockout. Hopefully they're getting that FOTN bonus later on, 'cause they deserve it. 

Joe Rogan, Jon Anik, and Daniel Cormier's reaction will live on forever as a meme, as well...

Dariush then called out Robert Whittaker in the weirdest fucking way possible, which I think was so awkward it confused Joe Rogan a bit, because he basically just said, "I wanna be a father like you, man!", and that's it. Maybe he had more planned for a respectful call-out but was a little banged up and forgot. Understandable.

ONTO ZHANG VS JOANNA NOW!!! HOLY SHIT THIS CARD RULES!!! GOD BLESS THE UFC!!!
