Falling asleep. Really wanna watch the Aspinall and Leon fights. Surprised the crowd isn't half asleep yet.
Ohh Paddy the Baddy!!
Impressive result, but they really do need to stop slow walking him against mediocre opponents.
Impressive performance but now it's time to give the scouser a top 10 lightweight that actually can grapple with him
And new!!!
Terrific job Belal

Mad respect to Belal. Incredible fight.
Crowd hated Belal winning, but as long as grappling is part of the sport then its a way to win. Can't support mixed martial arts and complain that some are more effective than others
Leon didn’t fight like a challenger, which is what most champs who stay as hungry as their opponents do. Belal gave everything he had from the first bell to the last. By contrast, Edwards looked like he didn’t want to be there most of the fight, coming alive in bursts. Just not the spirit that you see in longstanding, dominant champions.
So hard to assess the fight when only one of them seemed to realise it’s now or never.
Can’t knock Belal, however. He did everything you want a challenger to do.

Great wins for Bellal, Paddy, Aspinall and Allen. Decent card. Nice to see a new champion.
Thought the Aspinall fight was stopped early? Anyone else? Edit: Just saw who the ref was. Yeah, not surprised by that.
Tom really does appear to have 'Hands of Stone'. He's hittable, but I'm not sure that matters when you 1) Seem to have an excellent chin and 2) Have the type of power he does.
If his wrestling is as good as people say and he can keep it standing, he would run through Jon Jones.
Having this even in the middle of the night UK time sucks. Not like the UFC could not afford to lose a few PPV buys

Aspinall definitely seemed like an early stoppage, but Blaydes didn't seem too pissed off with it so I'm guessing he was in worse shape than it appeared

Mokaev being let go.

It's fascinating how successful Leon has been. Sure, he's an excellent martial artist, but he's not just a fighter. He always looks terrified and broken when competing (which is evident from how his coach speaks to him; he'll know this better than anyone).
You often see low-skilled brawlers in MMA, but seldom do you see guys like Leon.

fecking crazy. The guy is 7-0 in the UFC, longest win streak in the division.
Apparently his management was talking to PFL while he was still under contract (idiots). Hopefully Dana will reconsider...
A true red devil!
Not like my EX favourite fighter, Bisping...
You neverrrrr see Strickland backing up. Alex’s array is seamless.
Why is he analyzing light-sparring footage (which means nothing) as if they didn't literally fight for real... strange.
Cos habits and tendencies are still apparent, and it ramped up towards the end.
Chiesa loves to lose via D'arce, so hoping/praying, El Cucuy can sail into retirement on the back of one last victory.
Great reffing, saved Blaydes. Jon will now do all he can to fight Stipe and Stipe only.
We are live!!
And for a while now. Forgot they started early for Saudi Arabia (nice feck you to UK).

Times up for Tony, he moves so slowly and awkwardly I think his body's completely broken, needs to step away but I fear he's not going to any time soon.
He left one glove on the octagon at least. Hopefully that's it.
Seems like the UFC are forcing his hand somewhat as he doesn't want to fight elsewhere, hopefully that's enough and he doesn't get drawn back in by another promotion or some social media fight.
Well, that Russian fella is some fecking fighter
He’s very good but hasn’t adequately tested yet. Hopefully that happens soon.
Yeah. Good fun Shara Bullet.
Doesn't fight safe, likes to put on a show, unorthodox, mix it up...
Gets hit a bit too much for my liking but so far so good.
Nick Diaz will stop him
Maybe Nate would be better .
Love Cory, rooting for him. Game as feck
Winner of the next fight should fight for the belt next. Loser has to fight Figgy.
Feel sad seeing tony like this. Loses to everyone. I reckon @George Owen would probably beat him at this stage.
Oil check?
Would abuse him if we go 1 on 1 at football.
Who won round 1?
Umar 2-0 for me, but they were tight rounds
I'm on Omar 3-0 so far
