Brilliant from Gunni, puts him right back in contention at welterweight.
SBG needed that win
Well done by Gunni. I am sitting at home really regretting not getting a ticket for this event.
Wow.
Piss off. Another ageing Brazilian that needs to retired.Bigfoot needs to hang em up.
Bigfoot a victim of USADA
Big Foot Silva (only 36yo) has been doing the "last paycheck" circuit for almost 2 years now. This should be his last fight, but i guess he gonna get some fights in brazil events.
They are
Anderson, Belfort and Bigfoot are the obvious ones but a few others too like Diego Brandao and especially Erik Silva
Don't blink during this one.
Can't see this being a particularly long fight - either way it goes.
First round for Overeem I think.
2nd round as well.
Overeem is probably on his way to a title shot.
Beautiful crank kick/punch combo.
3-0. Great night for Dutch MMA. Really should have gotten a ticket.
Title shot for Overeem soon? Do you guys think he earned one?

I reckon he deserves winner of next weeks fight.
I'd like to see the Reem fight the loser of Werdum-Miocic and if he gets passed that get the title shot.
Over Velasquez ? I wouldn't think so.
Cain fights at UFC 200
Going by his normal schedule it'll be 2017 before he fights again. So give it to Overeem and Cain can fight for it next year
He should murder Travis Brown, at which point I would think a Werdum rematch would be a main event at the first NYC UFC in Nov.
Not so sure, Browne is a beast on his day and Cain has fought once in around two and a half years. No result in that one would surprise me and even if Cain does destroy him there's still going to be question marks over him staying healthy going forward.
The division is wide open IMO. There was a time where JDS and Cain looked a class above the rest but that's not really the case now (for Cain you could argue it's more down to fitness/health/injuries).
This new, leaner, more methodical Overeem is going to be hard to beat. So much quicker plus he doesn't gas now he's not carrying that steriod muscle. Which was ridiculous to begin with.
He also seems to have learned that perhaps defending his glass chin isn't the worst idea in the world.
Great card that, annoyed I didnt go.
Gunni looked excellent. I thought Tumenov would murder him but was wrong... looked great on the feet and on the ground. Shows how beast Maia is though. SBG and Gunni both needed that win.
Bigfoot He grew a beard to protect his glass chin but that didnt work. funny how Kenny Florian was saying how focused Silva looked just before they touched gloves, then 10 seconds later he was being mauled.
Big up my main man The Reem! Whereas USADA has killed Bigfoot's career, it's enhanced Overeem's in a big way. Looks so much better now that he's shed all that excess muscle. With this KO along with the KO of JDS, I would like him to get the title shot next.

You too huh!
And in other news, Silva vs. Hall cancelled due to Silva operation to remove his Uriah Gall bladder.
Siver also out of fight against BJ.
Gutted that the Silva fight is off this weekend, really interesting fight that one was.
Still a damn good card this weekend though. Smith is more than likely going to get steamrolled but she ain't half enjoying the chance she's been given.
"I have nothing to lose, that means I have everything to gain and nothing to fear. After this fight, people are going to know me as the woman that destroyed Cyborg."
I'd expect she's getting her face smashed in but I've really grown to like her in the build up to this fight even more than I already did.

crazy weigh-ins
edit. everybody made weight, including Cyborg @139. So close to he 135, but so far away at the same time...

Mayweather: it would be a boxing match.
A massacre is what it would be. McGregor doesn't stand a chance in a boxing match v Mayweather. Still, pay would be good I guess.
early prelims on!
Hope i can stay up tonight and watch ufc 198.
Going to be hard, since i've been up early all week!
Can't wait to see Cyborg
