    It isn't being shown over here.

    I'm not gonna lie, I kinda want Struve today win just so we can see a Miocic rematch.

    Struve has a higher upside so I want him to win too(apart from being a massive fan) Struve has always had the tools to be a top 5 HW... Just hasn't been able to put them together consistently.

    Gouti just stopped Hollbrook with a high kick and punches to follow it up... Thus we kick things off with a minor upset. Is that going to be a theme tonight?

    Bojan Mihajlović vs. Abdul-Kerim Edilov - 3 rounds at Light-Heavyweight.

    2nd round has just begun. According to Hardy rd 1 was a dominant one for Edilov.

    Edilov piles on the ground and pound and wins by TKO in the 2nd.

    I admire someone with his proportions making it as a submission fighter.

    I'm 6'2 and I have long legs so I struggle with BJJ against shorter people because they have better centre of gravity and have less distance when moving their limbs. In the flip side I have a very strong guard but we know that's useless the way UFC is scores.

    That aside though, wins over Miocic and Nog plus a 3 fight win streak will put him in line for an eliminator I'd have thought.

    If Struve wins this I imagine he'll get matched against Hunt next.

    The problem he has is the title shot probably has to go through Reem and Werdum and anyone not named Miocic is a huge underdog against both.

    Hardy takes an obvious 'jab' at boxing by saying that undefeated records don't matter as much.

    Struve should have beaten Hunt... He was too greedy with submissions and ultimately ended up paying for it. Had he just stuck to ground and pound and top control the fight would have almost certainly been his.

    Magomedsharipov softens up and forces the rear naked choke with less than 30 seconds to go in the 2nd frame.

    Magomedsharipov will be fun to watch... The comparisons to Pettis are definitely valid, but he definitely showed some vulnerability to forward pressure and more textbook striking just as Pettis does. Although he appears to be a little stronger in the wrestling department,
