    Good win for Bendo. Tatch simply doesn't have the grappling to go all the way yet.

    God i feel a bit sick rooting for benson. Started to regret it during the post fight interview. Man the size difference was scary

    Hollaway's striking has definitely improved since his last loss. He was stringing together some beautiful combinations. And to think he's still only 23. His next fight against Swanson will really be the tester.

    Thatch really showed the holes in his game against Bendo. Once it went into those championship rounds he was done. He could definitely wrestle but mostly his ground game seemed to be all about survival.

    Did anyone see the Chas Skelly fight? Looked like a knee to a downed fighter to me.

    How some of the main card fights got onto the main card I'll never know.

    Technically it was when it landed. But he was already done, and he wasn't grounded when he threw it.
    Would if been pretty bad if they took away the win over an accident like that.

    Fair play to Max Holloway. He is on a great run since the McGregor fight. Conor's injury aside he gave a good performance considering how McGregor has put everyone else to sleep

    And considering max had a broken foot against conor too

    Fair play to Bendo, Thatch wouldn't look at all out of place at middleweight. I thought he was 2-1 down going into the 4th but he pulled it out and I reckon he would have won a decision anyway as Thatch was tiring. Thatch just wasn't really able to use his size all that well.

    Thatch was absolutely exhausted after the 3rd round even though he was handily enough winning the fight up to that point.

    The toothpick is just a long running photoshop gag.
