    so happy dj didn't win... didn't like him since he ducked dillashaw for a easy fight to tie/break defence record. the way ufc announcers buiId him up as the p4p best Is hilarious he's not even close to it.

    I thought Garbrand would beat TJ this time around but maybe TJ is his kryptonite

    You should color your hair blonde & go by Blonders
    Luis Ortiz did it & it worked wonders

    I was really impressed seeing Dillashaw spar some of the best boxers & kick boxers no way Garbrandt was getting that level of sparring in. That could be all the difference

    Was Garbrandt not at Tiger Muay Thai in Thailand for a large part of his camp ?

    Cejudo looks like a mini Frank Shamrock.

    This shake up has made MMA more interesting again. a lot of good matchups coming the way of 125-135.

    Johnson/Cejudo III
    Dillashaw/Moraes

    Bring it on!

    I still haven't seen the Johnson vs Cejudo fight. Most people I've asked say Johnson should have gotten the nod. Anybody rewatched the fight yet?

    It's so crazy how they hold his record, and his performances, as proof. It's almost like Johnson went 13-1-1 against the best fighters in his division, and people forgot how great that was.

    His head is as big as BigFoot Silva's head.

    I thought Johnson won and I don't like him. He won 2 clear rds imo and the other 3 rds were fairly close. Thats how I saw it.

    I just caught the Swanson/Carneiro fight. Poor Cub can never put it together with enough consistency to earn a title shot. He looked solid and was winning the round before getting knocked down with that stiff jab. When all is said and done he will have been one of the better fighters to have never challenged for a major world title. He's now on a 3 fight skid but against very good competition(Ortega, Edgar and now Carneiro) It wouldn't come as a shock to me at all if he regroups and goes on another winning streak. Certainly wouldn't be the first time he's done it.

    As for Carneiro.... He's a handful for anyone. Not sure I'd favor anyone other than Holloway, Ortega and Aldo to beat him. Even Edgar he'd cause a lot of problems for.
