Donald Cerrone vs. Yancy Medeiros & Derrick Lewis vs. Marcin Tybura RBR

This isn't great vs. very good, but the same dynamic applies when you have "fair vs. somewhat poor"

Prolonged beating with rounds that are not entirely noncompetitive but still one-sided.

 

30-27 Davis, smart to not push for the KO in the final minute when Peterson was rocked, he was pretty gassed himself and could've been taken out.

 

Official cards:

30-27
29-28
30-26

UD for Brandon "Killer Bee" Davis

 

Great performance from Davis fighting on 10 days notice

 

I didn't realize Joe Martinez was announcing in the UFC now...had been wondering about his absence from the boxing scene lately. Hope that's just some moonlighting for extra cash and not a full-on mid-career transition. He was IMO the best we had and should've been the obvious successor to Lennon Jr. & Buffer (although most prefer a gimmicky douche like Diamante or Contreras )

 

Do I have time for a quick beer run (Wild Duck is like a block down the street) before the main event?

edit: n/m, they just said Pitbull Alves is coming up after the break. Hmm. So probably would risk missing a quick finish? Or is he too shot these days to sub or KO anybody with a pulse?

 

Caught me before an edit - I remember Alves but he can't be anywhere near the same fighter he was a decade ago, right?

Possible upset?

 

Wow, for a relative newbie they're sure giving that Northcutt lad quite a push, eh? Co-starring with Demetrious Johnson in Sprint commercials?

 

You know you've got a cherry-picked title defense on your hands when the entire advert just hypes up Cyborg herself and never even mentions her opponent by name.

(I just looked up Kunitskaya's record, and yikes...that pretty girl is going to get brutally disfigured...)
