    As I've always said about Dominick: He Is the Cody Garbrandt of LHW. He dedicated his entire career almost to just beating the Champ who was the Consensus greatest In his division, and even In creating the perfect style and doing the work necessary to beating the GOAT, he still couldn't achieve true greatness, lost his confidence, and ended up on a huge downfall going 0-3 In his last 3 fights losing all via KO.

    Atleast Cody has made somewhat of a comeback and won a few fights in his skid. Plus tbf Cody was very reckless in the fights he lost or too hesitant. He was very capable to winning against Pedro munhoz and almost beat the guy during that scrap which led to his knockout and Even tho you can argue font Basically beat him all five rounds Cody atleast may have won 2 of those rounds enough to have done decent enough. Reyes was never the same after jones watching the Jan fight he was ok however he clearly lacked the defence and was desperate trying to knockdown Jan when that fail he just took every shot until Jan KOEd him to oblivion. Even the jiri fight he was tryna go to war instead of playing it smart the guy couldn’t adjust when it mattered

This was just prior to the rules really being adressed in terms of scoring too, this was when just scoring a takedown with no damage or control would win fights frequently. Soon after the scoring really started to get adressed . Its tough but that night with that scoring system Jones won because of that one take down​@@SwampOperator

A fantastic fighter and even better person, his efforts won’t be remembered by the majority of the fanbase and that’s the saddest part. Because very few, if any, reach what he did against one of the best fighters in history. And yet, he takes nothing from it. Like you said at the end of the video, we’ll be rooting for him.

    To lose unfairly is one thing. To lose via tainted judging to a psychopath and Narcissist made it even worse. The way Jon strutted down the octagon exit stairs after their fight was a nauseating sight. Jon wanting old man Stipe is so telling. A humiliation via a current top contender will not be allowed. Sorry Tom. Respect him as a fighter perhaps, but how someone could 'like' Jon or be a fan of his is nuts. He is a POS.

    I nearly cried watching this mostly because this is exactly what i have been thinking ever since that glorious night where he undeniably beat the most privileged fighter in the ufc history but was brutally robbed of a clear 48-47 score card in his favor and how his career went from glory to dread especially by the hands of a judge who presented a 49-46 score card in favor of Jon Jones, which at the time seemed so blatantly wrong that my emotions after that fight went from extreme anger to cynical laughter pertaining to the fact that to beat Jon Jones, you also have to beat the opinions of 3 or at least 2 incompetent judges, which unfortunately Dominic wasn’t able to accomplish despite clearly winning the fight no more and no less than 3-2 or 48-47 and ironically even Tiago Santos, who’s fight with Jones was definitely not nearly as controversial, was able to convince at least one of the judges in his favor, thus losing a split decision whereas Reyes was egregiously given a unanimous decision loss despite that even the vast majority of the media members and literally every MMA fan, whose opinion i consider valid, unequivocally and unanimously thought that Dominic won that fight. Little did he and all of us know that to beat the biggest cheater in MMA history, you have to get him out of there because otherwise, you’re not fighting a fair one on one fight; rather, it’s more like one against 4 or 3 if you’re lucky to get a split decision loss. Ever since that triumph that quickly turned into tragedy, I would occasionally think about Dominic and how his life could have been different had he not been viciously robbed of something he truly deserved to win… Now I am not sure what happened to his fight with Ulberg but to be honest, I don’t know if I even want to see Dominic go against that monster because you said it well another loss and he will likely be terminated from his assignment with the UFC and more likely than not at this stage in his career fighting someone like Ulberg will likely result in another KO loss and unnecessary brain damage to one of the most promising contenders that was so close to at least tasting the glory and at least some financial benefits that come with having that UFC belt. Great documentary

    It could be a very different story if he actually won that decision and kept his confidence of his undefeated status alongside with the glory of officially beating Jon Jones by decision, his confidence level would be higher in the rematch, and Jones's confidence could be finally shattered as we know outside of the cage Jones is known for scandals like hiding under cage and steroids, and that inside the octagon loss after many outside of octagon losses could perhaps hindered Jones mentally in the rematch, we also know styles make fights so Reyes could potentially win the Jones rematch too with the confidence boost.

Jones was fighting and has been dominant far before reyes was even a name.. also Jon never had KO power to knock out reyes anyways.. and yes I do believe if we can say Reyes lost confidence so he kept losing we can also say Jon lost motivation for being on top of the LHW division for so long..

As good as Jon is he was never much of a KO threat and Reyes also stuffed seven of Jon's takedowns, minimizing Jon's biggest weapon. But look what happened in Reyes' last 3 fights. All losses by KO/TKO, something that Jon couldn't do.

From the heartbreak of the Jones fight, and the way his last 2 fights ended, especially the Jiri one, it just felt like he would never recover from that streak. If he was to fight Ulberg he'd get hurt bad. Just like Tony. After Gaethje he was never recovering.
