    Wow Cejudo by TKO, not many were picking that. He's looked great over the last 18 months.

    If he fights TJ at 135 it's hard to complain if the UFC does kill the 125 division

    I'm not sure I believe TJ when he claims that was an easy cut.. some of the pictures earlier in the week did not look healthy

    Cowboy Cerrone looked the best he has in years. He called out McGregor after the fight.. that would be a good payday for Cerrone. Conor needs a win against a name and it would be an entertaining fight

        Dillishaw stopped too soon. He came back from worse twice against Garbrandt

            A few kiwis fighting this Sunday. Shane Young and Kai Kara-France are on the prelims.

            Adesanya vs Anderson Silva is the co-main event

            Then Aussie/Maori Whittaker defends the belt against Gastelum

            Hopefully all the locals win and that sets up a Whittaker v Adesanya fight. That would have to happen in this region.. then there's a minuscule outside chance of a title fight being held in Auckland

              @Duluth Anderson looks in very, very good shape. This is dangerous as shit for Israel but he should come through.

              I think Whittaker loses the belt personally. There I said it.

                Gastelum has a good chance with the speed of his power punch

                I think Whittaker will hold the title though. I think he'll fight cautious until the championship rounds. I'm one of those people that questions Kelvins conditioning

                  Whittaker Goooonnneeeee!

                  Was taken to hospital with abdominal pain last night. Has a hernia.

                  Izzy is the main event.

                  Feel for Gastelum. It’s a long way to come to not fight.

                      @raznomore

                      What percentage of cards actually happen as originally announced these days? It feels like every single card loses at least one of the main fights.

                        Both of the Kiwis on the prelims win

                        I thought Kai Kara-France might have lost that decision. I think he just got edged in round 2 & 3, very close rounds though.
                        Great chin from Paiva, I can't remember anyone else taking clean strikes from Kai so easily

                        The Young fight was entertaining. The UFC will push him.. they'll like his style

                            Good call. Israel won, but that was the best best Anderson has looked for a while.

                            Fun fight. This would have been a good card with one more fight..

                              Great fight.

                              Israel's toughest challenge to date.
