    One fight in New York per year max from now on...

    Max is already a skinny MF. They probably never saw him before today. SMH

    A natural, high-level 155-lbs. fighter on a full camp > Out of camp FW Max Holloway

    Iaquinta has better Jits, too

    Could be a great fight

    According to ESPN, DFW said the athletic commission is saying it's not a title fight but the UFC is viewing it as being for the LW Championship? Is he allowed to tell the AC to fuck off we'll do what we want like that?

    They are pissed at the New York commission. I dunno. Can't trust what Dana says.

    Dana can award the belt to whoever he wants; right? He is the boss. If Al wins, strip Conor and award it to Al. If Khabib wins...Khabib is the champ and Conor will fight him in September.

    Khabib will call out GSP after tonight's fight supposing he wins. He wants to fight him at MSG for the 155-lbs. title.

    It's the kind of fight that I think GSP would be up for.

    Overall I like the combination of Smith and Rogan but they seem to echo each other a lot.

    Great first round from the women.

    Rose is just as fast as JJ.

    Rose showing she wasn't lucky last time. Her striking seems to nullify JJ.

    JJ is chipping away at Rose but I don't know if she's doing enough to convince the judges.

    I feel like this is a 3/2 fight for Rose but I don't know what the judges will say.

    Rose wins 4-1 on all cards. JJ shaking her head.
