    what are the odds on Gaethje? I don't see anyone but Khabib beating Ferg.

    Stephens missed weight by a lot but the main eventers are good.

    Jacare off of the card, testing positive for Covid-19. As of right now, the card is still a go. We'll see how things are in the morning. Jacare knew he had come into contact with someone positive for Covid-19, and still came to the event after notifying UFC officials. Fucking stupid move...

    Gaethje has one punch power and Tony gets hit, a lot. I think with two weight cuts, Tony is going to be drained and his chin is destined to go. I think Gaethje clips him and ends it. If not by the mid 3rd round though; I think Tony wins.

    Last odds for Gaethje I saw were like +160

    Amazing call.

    Gaethje beat the everloving fuck out of Ferguson.

    One of the best all time title fight performances by Gaethje. Brilliant counter-fighting. Absolutely incredible performance against one of the very best.

    The way Tony went out is very reminiscent of the way Robbie Lawler finished Rory MacDonald, IMHO.

    If this 4 fight win streak is the new Gaethje...then the LW division is in serious trouble. His head movement and patience tonight was phenomenal. Fucking impressive performance. IF his wrestling is as good as they hype it up to be; I think Khabib is in for a long night.

    Also, for the record lol with my buddies I made the same picks with the exception of I switched out Pettis and Cerrone. Pretty fucking solid night of picks for me.

    Cerrone's not washed completely but at this stage he can only beat B-level guys. Seems like Stephens is in the same boat. MMA is not for long careers.
