    @raznomore said in UFC:

    Brunson vs Shabazian

    Herb Dean needs some time off. I'll leave that there. Brunson a deserving winner and is on a 3 fight streak after switching gyms.

    Jennifer Maia vs Joanne Calderwood. "The perils of overwork are slight compared with the dangers of inactivity" - Thomas Edison. Except if you're Joanne Calderwood. Should have left our ass at home lol. What I assume she thought would be a tune-up fight(while she waited for Bullet to get over her injury) has turned into a title shot all but evaporating.

    If this card should be known for anything though its the number of low blows there were. Tons.

    On the prelims, Chris Gutiérrez vs Cody Durden. Durden clearly won the first. Then Gutiérrez won the last two. Refs call it a draw. I think that's a tough call on Gutierrez. He clearly won 2-1. How do you guys feel about Durden being given the draw based on a dominant first round?

    Bobby Green vs Lando Vannata was fight of the night.

    Masterclass from Luque

          Just the finish here. The whole round was dominant for Dariush.. I’m amazed Holtzman stayed up after the knee

              @MiketheSnow @raznomore predictions for Miocic v Cormier?

              I think Miocic will get it done, he's the better fighter over five rounds. That first round and a half will be dangerous though

              Miocic looks leaner than normal. Again I think there's room for a 225 division (Stipe came in at 233)

              Cormier to wrestle more this time?


              O'Malley v Vera should be a fun fight. I expect the O'Malley hype will keep growing

              JDS v Rozenstruik. Looking forward to this one but I have no strong opinion. A coin toss.

                @Duluth I don't really like Stipe. There's just something about him. He seems like a nice guy but there's just something there that makes me want DC to take his belt. I also expect Stipe to win though.

                O'Malley is starting to believe his own hype or at least he's starting to play the hype game. Can't blame him for wanting to make up for lost time etc. I wouldn't be surprised if he lost because it's usually when someone starts beefing with more than one party(Vera and Garbrandt) that their focus may not be where it should be. But again I expect him to win.

                JDS has always been one of my guys. I prefer fighters with strong boxing etc. I think this is a good match up stylistically. I just think maybe JDS is slowing down and Rozenstruik, although stopped quickly by Ngannou was on a 4 fight streak. JDS lost to Ngannou and Blades in the lead up to this and hadn't been as busy as Rozenstruik. Could work in JDS favour i guess. Being potentially fresher and better rested.

                                      Yoder stealing this with dominant position. I had to cash out. Cash was $101 so made a tidy profit....not $12k though..

                                          Yoder won that for me.
