My impression is that ESPN MMA has a bunch of novice videographers. The guy doing the interview is way over exposed!

[@RYUkyu1812]

I'm kinda of shocked that they released poor quality video like this.

[@thefilmpoets]

the light was too close, that's why interviewer is so much brighter than Israel. No way to properly expose that cause Israel would be under exposed had he adjusted. Move the light back.

[@RYUkyu1812]

The Film Poets the videographer could have adjusted the iris so the interviewer didn’t look so bleached out. It wouldn’t have been ideal, but much better than what we’re seeing.

No it's when after Jorge knocked out Ben he pretended to lay on the floor stiff and kinda shaked like a seizure that's planking making fun of ur unconscious opponent stiff as a plank lol that's what izzy meant trust me on that. I cant remember the names but a few UFC fighters done it back in the day its total disrespect 😂😂😂

[@chingalputo1769]

Bro Askren took a career worth of damage in 2 UFC fights. Just goes to show there's levels for real. And he was not ready for the highest. *edit* this comment touched some souls huh? Truth hurts Ben came out of retirement just to get his career ended again and only spent alil over 5min total in the octagon. He wasn't ready for the best in the world like he thought he was

[@futuregensportinghighlight3567]
