UFC 254 is in the books, and it saw what is probably Khabib Nurmagomedov’s last performance in the Octagon. After submitting Justin Gaethje and improving to 29-0, Nurmagomedov took to the mic to announce his retirement from mixed martial arts.
Here’s a quick twitter thread with a brief recap and analysis of the event, that’s fitting for people’s social media era attention spans:
TUIVASA TKOs STRUVE
PROS: Buzzer beater first round KO. Nice leg kicks too. Perfect way to return to the UFC for the (slimmer) Tai Shoeyvasa
CONS: Struve’s last second takedown cost him badly.
