Did you enjoy Saturday’s fights at UFC on Fox 8? Then you are going to love reliving all the excitement from this past weekend’s event in super slow motion.
From flyweight champ Demetrious Johnson’s fifth-round armbar win over John Moraga to rising welterweight Robbie Lawler’s brutal head-kick knockout of Bobby Voelker, the UFC’s “Phantom Cam” captured all of the fast-paced action from Saturday’s fights in Seattle.
Somehow, it even made the snoozefest between welterweight contenders Rory MacDonald and Jake Ellenberger somewhat entertaining to watch (although that fight was still pretty horrendous).
Check out the remarkable, slow-motion highlight reel in the video embedded above.
In addition to the main card battles, the UFC’s Phanton Cam video also featured some of the preliminary card matchups, including the Fight of the Night winning war between middleweights Ed Herman and Trevor Smith as well as the surprising second-round submission win by lightweight Jorge Masvidal over The Ultimate Fighter 15 winner Michael Chiesa.
The highlight reel also showed clips from heavy-handed lightweight Melvin Guillard’s dominant striking performance over Mac Danzig.
After seeing Danzig‘s body and face ripple after each of Guillard’s punches landed, all I can say is “Ouch!” I would have started the water works, too, if I had to take a fist to the face from the “Young Assassin.”
Honestly, I cannot get enough of these super slow-mo videos, and I hope they keep pumping out more of them for future events.
