        No ring rust from Cejudo

        A very close fight. I had it Cejudo 48-47

          Me too

          Belal is the epitome of non-flashy but man is he hard to beat

          Thought the Dober stoppage was premature

          Great debut from Lopes

            I hope Cejudo has a few more fights. Not sure how interested he is in fighting in non title fights though

            I see some have suggested he fight Holloway at 145. The size difference would be huge but Cejudo would still have a chance

            It's a way of giving both of them a big fight. Neither of them are getting a title shot again soon

              If the numbers were good, a rematch against Sterling is on the cards

              Sterling has been a very fortunate champion

                Very fortunate. It looks like O'Malley was already contracted for the winner no matter what happened.

                I guess Cejudo could wait a year

                Such a good division. I want Sterling to lose the belt so Dvalishvili can have a good crack at it

                      Looking forward to seeing how Ulberg goes overnight. He's shown big improvements each fight.. hope it continues

                      Walker is always fun. If he doesn't fight like a tard he's better than Smith. But it's entirely possible he puts on a show for 3-4mins and gasses

                      Garry to extend his winning streak

                      A couple of interesting HW matchups too. A decent card.


                      Jairzinho Rozenstruik v Jailton Almeida
                      Anthony Smith v Johnny Walker
                      Daniel Rodriguez v Ian Garry
                      Carlos Ulberg v Ihor Potieria
                      Alex Morono v Tim Means

                      Matt Brown v Court McGee

                          I missed the prelims. The card had some heavy favourites. I guess with the ABC audience the UFC wanted finishes and to showcase some fighters they think will kick on

                          Ulberg got it done but that was a strange finish.. keep punching until ref tells you to stop. Accurate punch that got the knock down

                          What the fuck was Smith talking about and why didn’t Walker go for the kill late in the 3rd? Weird fight

                            Matt Brown living his nickname

                            Great finish from Battle

                            Ulberg and Garry looked very comfortable

                              291 is another fun card

                              Good to see they are giving Pereira a different type of test. I’m picking Jan in this one.

                                  Good challenge for Kai Kara-France on Sunday. Albazi has a bit of hype behind him and he's going up the rankings fast. Striker v Wrestler

                                  Mullarkey worth watching on the prelims. His fights are always entertaining

                                  Hope Arlovski goes well. 44 years old, still competitive, pro debut last century back when he had hair like 1980s George Michael

                                          The KKF decision was odd

                                          I was drinking when watching but I see most other people had the same score

                                          1,4 & 5 KKF
                                          3 Albazi

                                          Round 2 very close

                                          So I was expecting 49-46 or 48-47

                                          The judge that gave round 4 to Albazi should have to explain why. No takedowns and significant strikes were 27-5 in favour of KKF

                                          Mullarkey got sloppy for a couple of seconds and paid the price

                                          Caceres v Pineda was awesome

                                          Loved the finish from Miller
