At least we've now got MMA in the title, that was a little bugbear of mine.

Close main event last night, probably the right decision though.
Worrying the amount of UFC fighters claiming to be broke recently. Cannonier in his post fight interview, Miesha Tate saying she spent 98% of her purse on the training camp (although some of her list of things did sound avoidable),etc.

Gastelum not had a good run really has he? Lost 5 from his last 6. His power seems to have gone a bit as well.

I like him as a fighter though, always pressing. But yeah, he's lost something.

I'm not sure he's lost his power so much as just facing the elite at MW and coming up a bit short. He's faced some pretty good strikers in his last couple.
I think a step down in competition would do him good, he's still quite young I think

Usman vs Covington 2 and Rose vs Zhang 2 November 6th

Usman vs Covington 2 and Rose vs Zhang 2 November 6th I don't know why Usman is fighting Covington again. The first time was as convincing a win as you're going to get, and what's Colby done in the meantime? Give it to Leon for crying out loud, sure he'll get ground into paste but at least he's got a better argument than Covington. |

Giga is legit. Very impressive.
And Kevin Lee has to be one of the biggest disappointments of all the hype jobs/prospects in recent MMA history.

Lee seems to fight well for a round and then just drop off. Impressive win from Giga yeah, wonder who he'll get matched up against next. He called for Max but seems like a bit of a jump
The TUF Bantamweight Final between Ricky Turcios/Brady Heistand was a fun scrap too

Better not be on box office Usually it's only Conor cards on Box Office. I can't remember a non-McGregor card being on it anyway. Although if he loses his next fight surely his stock will have plummeted enough that box office won't be worth it any more, so fingers crossed. |

Wasn't one of Jones last fights box office? And some of Khabibs?
Conors draw power has taken a serious hit after 2 losses plus it seems more people are now fed up with how he acts

Till card today, on at reasonable hours I think he gets by Brunson Nice one, forgot it was on at a normal time. I hope he gets by Brunson. Derek is the ultimate gatekeeper and if Till can't beat him I don't know what's next for him. |

Yes, looking forward to watching live for once rather than the next day.

I wonder how many Americans have absolutely no idea what the fuck Paddy is saying.

Would have laughed if Paddy had got knocked out then after all the self hype.

Yeah it looked a bit dodgy for Paddy there, albeit for a brief moment. Decent debut though. It's been a good card so far.

Seems mad that knee kicks are legal when they can potentially end a career.

Damn, Brunson definitely showed the blueprint to beat Till, I wonder what's next for him. A step down in competition, surely.
