Just jumping in now myself and the Caceres/Pettis fight is very good.

I'm hoping for Thompson, Cerrone and Gonzaga for wins on the main but Cerrone is probably my best hope here.

The winner of the Bendo/Thomspon fight is probably going to fight for the title in three or six months.

It's live and in colour on your television box or your internet machine right now!

That was a big win for Cacares in a very close fight. Had Pettis ahead myself.

First prelim online was really impressive. Krylov finished Harris in about 40 seconds of round 1.

Lenin Skynard

I was impressed with Caceres too, he seems to get better when the pressure is on.

I missed the first prelim, sounds good from what you've said. I'm sure they'll stick it in somewhere if it was good and forty seconds long.

Can Bendo ever win a fight without it being a little controversial

Thought Bendo had it myself, but I wasn't paying close attention to the fight. He seemed to be more on the offense despite getting in trouble a couple of times on the ground, controlled the Octagon and stuffed more TDs.

I was hoping Josh would win so maybe a bit bias however I thought he might have had the decision the 49-46 was a weird score for me to take.

Jaysus Henderson is boring to watch. More interested in "tactically" kicking the back of your calves than actually trying to finish a fight.

p to the e

Gonzaga gassed so bad. He also smashed his hand but he was breathing heavy after the first round.

Really impressed with Chico Camus. His ground game was far better than I think anyone expected.

Cerrone's KO was a thing of beauty.

I was rooting for Thompson and thought he might be able to pull it off after he won the first round.

But It think, despite his tactical style, Henderson was good value for the win! Pity Thompson broke his hand so early on, it might've been a different fight!

had backed thomson pts at 6s
the injury killed that bet

betting aside I was desperate for thomson to win that one
the 49/46 was a joke though

I thought it was pretty fair, he was backed up a lot of the fight not as agressive and didnt seem to throw more shots. Most of his takedowns were stuffed
