    DJ looked a bit slower than normal, bit of over confidence maybe thinking it was just a formality like the last fight.

    SHIIT - He did it!

    Thought the champ would get a close decision after a long reign.

    Great, i like Cejudo - and a new champ in the division!

    A night of upsets. I can’t believe DJ just lost. Just when I thought upsets couldn’t get more shocking.

    It's just his style, it might not be to everyone's liking but he is technically excellent and a truly great fighter.

    TBH I used to **** on the guy all the time but have recently come to respect him as a great champion. He's like a lower weight GSP more or less. The GOAT talk is what always annoyed me......... The guy was always afraid of challenging the BW champ.

    I like it. Cejudo isn't ****ing around, immediately is calling for a BW superfight.

    Cejudo calls out the winner of the main event and takes a dig at DJ for ducking that challenge. SAVAGE!

    Cejuda took it to DJ AND is willing to move up to unify! That's a fighting champion right there.

    DJ can come again, he didn't show any signs of decline, just super tentative.

    As many have said, Cejuda is the man. Not waiting around for greatness. Calling out the next weight class already.

    It strikes me that it's basically all down to the whims of Dana White, and who he likes and finds entertaining. DJ deserves an immediate rematch; but, on that basis, Dana probably won't let him have it. :lol:

    Rogan deffo overrates or overrated DJ. Like he is head and shoulders beyond everyone else ever to step foot in the octagon. He is and were a great champ. His size is the problem for him to move up, he could problably even make 115 - but he still ducked TJ a title shot at 125, his own division.

    I still think, besides two positive test :eaea:, Bones Jones is the greatest - skillwise.
