    If this was at the GOAT's natural weight it'd be a no brainer, but now he's giving up size. Still Kennedy has had a long layoff and regardless of the training, it does make a difference.

    I think Thompson takes it still.

    Oh, Mauro, you are the worst.

    Nick Thompson is a lawyer and "we know he's passed a few arm-bar exams."

    Good gravy...

    Showtime has hired refs with overactive bladders or something, they are as impatient as hell.

    Bizarre ending to that one. Thompson complained about being hit on the back of the head and tapped out. Replays showed him getting hit behind the ear... seemed legal.

    No elbows on the ground is kind of sucky.

    Wow, great tilt. Not at all what I was expecting. Cyborg was technical, Joe was wilder. I think Joe stole it in the last round, though.

    I think the long layoff hurt Villasenor.
