Looks like Yoel is getting to fight Whittaker. As I said, missing weight doesn't matter if he wins and nobody cares about interim belts.

Btw why did they let Yoel walk up to Luke to start a make out session and profess his love to him? That shit was bizarre as fuck.

Agreed. Even though i am a big yoel fan,i genuinely felt bad for luke. I respect luke but his model esque jaw is not cut out for mma. U need a round or pear shaped jaw to be able to take shots. It is what it is.

Black Beast is a no BS type of guy and I can appreciate it. My favorite thing is him casually eating chips during the interview - what a guy :lol: I hope they get him Francis somehow since he's been shit talking him recently, maybe after Blaydes dumps on Francis.

Two great finishes today, overall very entertaining card.

Mike Perry tough :fp: I can't figure out why that guy has a hype train.

Yeah, cutting edge cornering by her "show him your strength" and "break his leg" were my favorites.

Also not sure if he's out of his mind, he seems more out of his depth if anything.

This goes to show. Nowadays, you can just talk that good shit and get fights.

Never thought Perry was anything special, surprised that it was even a surprise to so many people he lost.

I figured he'd win because Max Griffin felt like an opponent the UFC deliberately picked for him to get a win so they can promote him. He looked worse than against Ponzinibio somehow. Completely flat footed and unimaginative.

As for the talking, unfortunately it works. Except for Covington and Usman who somehow manage to talk themselves out of fight opportunities :lol:

Ilir Latifi destroyed Saint Preux. I want to see this guy get a title fight in the future, he's a monster

Unfortunate that he won't fight Gus or Manuwa, guess they should consider him vs Ozdemir. Poor guy, has to go against another short wrestler that's build like a brick shithouse :lol:

What a shite main event, the level of competition in Cyborg division is similar to what Ronda experienced. (probably worse)
T-city BOOM.. man the guy is awesome, although i hated seeing Frankie get k.o'ed like that.

Rest of the main card was MEH.

It's a little bit of both.

Cyborg is actually legit good. Ronda was a noob in a time when other people were also noobs. If you watched her fight with Camouche, she went that head lock on the ground and let Carmouche take her back and ended up in a face choke. That shows that she was still transitioning into MMA or even BJJ grappling. That's one of the moves they teach in MMA or BJJ self defense very early on. I am not saying Ronda wasn't good or she didn't have that knowledge, but she was still transitioning and learning the "MMA game", she just was way ahead of others in terms of learning curve.


Cyborg has been immersed in MMA and I don't see any of these women beating her anytime soon.

Most likely you are right, she fights like someone that actually lives and breathes MMA. Her opponents on the other hand, look like they took 3 classes and decided stepping in a ring would be a good idea.

So Mike Perry and his girl went separate ways. So we might actually see Perry with a good camp and corner?
