    Not a fan but if he has anything left he should school Pyfer. Pyfer got schooled by Hermansson. Seems like no one respects Adesanyas stand up anymore and are quick to walk him down and unload. Definitely not something you want to let happen with Pyfer. Who hits hard as **** if nothing else.

    So it will be Movsar v Volk for the title next. I think Volk peices him up over 5 or a late tko from Movsars face being rearranged.

    Watching him today, his grappling and strength is way below Islams in strength and technique. Islam even said he couldn't do anything with Volk in the grapple. So Movsar will be forced to stand.
    His punches are wide and not that fast. Volks hands are fast and straight, along with his footwork to work angles he will probably damage his hands landing on Mosvar so often.
    Movsar also keeps his left leg out that Volk will kick the sht out of it as well.

    Yeah if age doesn't catch up he should win. Evolevs striking looking improved though. He seemed to want to put on a show(or maybe it was highly suggested that he do so)

    Nobody that interested in the Izzy fight tonight?

    Im actually kinda interested in seeing if he can overcome the young lion or if he finally gets put out to pasture.

    Once he lost to Du Plusis it was career over imo. If it wasn't the fight after that one it is now.

    He's finished.

    Damn, Izzy lost again via stoppage?

    I guess it makes sense, given his age, he always relied heavily on his athleticism. People don“t really mention it, but Izzy was getting beaten up badly in the second Pereira fight too, its arguably a bit of a fluke win.
    Regardless, its crazy to see him on a 4 fight losing streak after going 1-1 with Pereira.

    Ulberg beats him in a rematch too. Jiri is too sloppy. Not a fluke.

    Jiri with his chin in the air, he has even recognised he needs to change that, he just doesn't have the mindset to do it. Ulberg with 2 legs beats him up before finishing him. Jiri just doesn't learn .
    I didn't realise how large/tall Ulberg actually was until seeing him face to face at weigh ins.

    Bruh sad for jack but prates performance was such terrific, I feared an one punch KO from behind the cards, not sumthin like that

    Same i thought JDM was going to school him, Prates looked fast and sharp. Jack in his last 2 fights looks like he mentally crumbles when under pressure. Islam will just take Prates down for a lay and prey fight.
    Hard to judge Quillan, Darush was here for a holiday, talking about the food places etc all week instead of the fight.
    Erceg also looked fast and sharp.
    Cody Thickness, for all the years he has trained with Volk, his stand up is horrid.
    Tuivasa has no businmess being in MMA let alone the UFC, after all the years he still doesn't bother to do anything about take down defence. Fat and lazy. Maybe give bare knuckle a try.
