Great main event. Tim Elliott is hard to kill. Most competitive fight DJ has had in years. Candidate for FOTY but you know that Diaz/McGregor 1 is going to win that category. Good to see DJ tie GSP and inch closer to Silva's record. Not so good to see a long reigning UFC champion fighting in front of a high school basketball crowd.

Henry Cejudo's lauded wrestling pedigree has translated poorly to MMA. He is a tremendous athlete to have reached such a high ranking but he has no elite skills.

Jake Ellenberger should file a protest against the NSAC for yet another outrageous decision. He gets his foot stuck in the cage and it's a TKO? Herb Dean should've restarted the fight rather than consult the ringside retard in red. Masvidal was tooling him up and was robbed of a possible POTN bonus.

Love the small cage.

 

Eddie Bravo suggested during the fight companion podcast that the UFC's new owners were looking to get rid of Mike Goldberg.

Goldberg has become a human sound board but things won't be the same without him.

 

Poor DJ...nobody wants to watch him fight...

 

Sounds like the UFC is interested in having Benavidez and Cejudo rematch.

Given that MM has beaten Benavidez twice the timing isn't terrible.

Wilson Reis is fighting Ulka Sasaki next month. If Reis wins it would be his third on the trot. About as good as you can get in the division and he hasn't fought MM yet.
