TIME FOR THE MAIN EVENT
Who do ye reckon wins this?
Rooting for the snake next.
Didn't expect it to be so "even".
I had TJ winning the first but Sandhagen taking over in this round.
TJ looking old. Gonna need a miracle now
Don't think he needs a miracle. Its probably 1 each with 3 rounds left. He just needs to wrestle more, staying on the feet is a terrible idea because of Sandhagens reach advantage.
How many times is sandhagen going to give up his back?
Potentially card of the year so far
Really fun night of fights

If this goes the distance Dillashaw wins IMO
Is it 3-1 Dillashaw? I think potentially
Can't believe Sandhagen is so scared of a one eyed old man
I'd agree but hard to tell for sure.
Sandhagen has edged this one for me.
Should be TJ win either 4-1 or 3-2
But who knows
Great fight though

I'd give it TJ but rounds 4 and 5 are really close
Very disappointing from Sandhagen
Meh, stayed up for that.
His transformation to Sloth from the Goonies is almost complete
The result was pretty predictable in the end. In close fights, the fighter perceived as applying pressure and being on the front foot for most of the fight will always have the advantage with the judges.
Yan beats Sterling and then Dillashaw.
4am now. Guess I just expected more, stoppage from either would have done nicely, but was decent.
This is what I felt. The kinda control TJ had was so limiting in terms of what it contributed to the fight. But as you say, Judges see it very differently.
What damage did he do in the last round?
This isnt PRIDE though
Was there that much damage apart from that gash?
I think he means the state of TJ's face.
Cory outstruck TJ, but TJ had more control time (albeit against the fence and not by way of takedowns).
Very close fight, but as we learned from jones v reyes, the one with most failed takedown attempts win
Jk i think split decission to TJ is a fair result

Based on how fights are scored, that was a definite win for TJ in my opinion, albeit it was close. If it was out on the street then you'd say it was a Cory win..
Not a robbery but I thought Cory did enough to win that. Caused more damage, had TJ rocked a couple times (I think?) And landed more shots. But TJ did push the pace and judges look at that when it's close. Maybe a draw would have been fair? Either way, good fight that was.
On a side note, love how Cruz used this fight to make an excuse for his defeat to Cody

"Then whenever Poochie isnt on screen all the other characters should be asking Where's Poochie?"
Niiice. First one was a fecking banger so I'm expecting more of the same.
Edwards and Burns should fight for the next title shot.
One of the craziest guys in the UFC.
I see Ali still trying to somehow prevent the Makhachev (5) vs Dariush (3) fight (both his clients). That's the fight that makes sense ranking wise to keep the division moving. Gaethje (2) vs Chandler (4) should be the other one, while Dustin (1) fights the Champ.
Conor trying to get himself killed

Guess it's in response to Khabibs good always defeats evil after the last Conor fight. The guy manages to sink lower and lower.
McGregor needs to just feck off at this stage hasn’t been relevant for years since Khabib beat him and comes out with shit like this constantly, telling people to spit clean his belts for him is he delusional..
