They touched before the fight as well so he should have been ready to go once the fight started. Or at least signal before to see if the other fighter wants to touch again.

Yep, there's no obligation to go for a touch after the fight starts. Plus it wasn't obvious that's what Holland was doing. Nor did Khamzat give any indication he was going for a glove touch.
All fine imo.

Yeah not sure why some are trying to claim he faked a glove touch. He was in fight mode right from the start.

It wouldn't have changed nothing anyway. If we wasn't going to be completely dominated on the ground he had time to show it.

Another reason I ditched them. I've been making my way through all of the PPVs on Fight Pass. I'm currently part way through 2006.

Damn. Thought BT had ditched putting these on box office. Pricks.

Crazy night Islam looked sensational, ran through a very tough Oliveira

That and the O'Malley fight were fantastic.

Thought he was extremely lucky to get the nod in that fight though, I was even shocked when one judge gave him the fight.

Good card. Not sure who is going to beat Islam. He smokes anyone in that division.

Having watched it again i'd give Sean rd 1 & 3 I did the same on first viewing but it seems a very unpopular opinion to hold so I'm going to rewatch it myself as well

Guessing TJ will be out for a fair bit now.

That Jones vs Adesayna fight is never going to happen now and it's pretty clear which way it would have gone.

Just caught up. Little bit gutted for Izzy. Wanted him to get some redemption. I think he's the better fighter but Peirera is the more devastating puncher.
I'll be surprised if Jones ever fights again at this rate.

Don't really like Israel but I felt bad for him too honestly. Can't say I agree on him being the better fighter though when he's 0-3. Granted MMA is a different sport but Pereira constantly cut him off while investing in the leg kicks and body shots to slow Israel's movement. That left hook was bound to find its mark eventually like it did in their last encounter Great fight though, most of the card was solid. Weili running through Carla, Dustin/Chandler putting on a war (despite the cheating). Enjoyed it, could have done without the Frankie fight though

Poirier's mentality, chin and boxing skill is simply superb.
Chandler was hitting him very hard and a few got through halfway through the first round. Poirier bides his time, soaks up the pressure, keeps rolling the shoulder and then throws a few choice counter-punches and turns the round on its' head.
Hope he wins the belt eventually; would be a damn shame if he never did.

Glad Izzy lost, he's a great fighter but I don't like him at all. Also shakes up the division a bit as nobody else was beating him. With Pereira a lot of the others will cause him problems.
Poirier vs Chandler was great fun. He's involved in so many great fights.

So, Paddy the Baddy. Initially I thought he was a massive dickhead. Then he started to grow on me a bit. Now he's back to being a total dickhead. I don't think he'll lose tonight, but it's going to be incredibly satisfying when anyone from the top 10 brutally knocks him out.

How did he ever win you over with that haircut and accent?
Love to see him get knocked out when he fights someone top 10.

Feels like Till hasn't got long left in the UFC.
