    That was as dominant as you can get really. His work on the ground was solid too. I was a wee bit worried when he was in Brandao's guard but he fought smartly, ensuring control the whole time.

    He's got some bottle on him and as long as he can back up the hype more success to him...he'd definitely make ya proud in fairness.

    Looked like Brando hurt his knee ? He seemed to be dragging his right leg backing into the cage there !!

    Not to take away from Nelson but I thought Cummings defended that choke poorly, when that kind of grip is used all he had to do was reach up with both hands and pull down the hand on the top of his head :confused:

    Edit: I mean I don't train and even i know what to do with that kind of grip.

    Very happy he got the win. BUT I can't stand the american put on accent and manner. Think he should express his Irish heritage more considering he flys the flag

    He got the wind taken out of him he was hurt, then Conors punch after he just couldn't take anymore.You could see he was hurt after the kick was only matter of time and Conor went for it

    I think he tries to speak a bit clearer since he's shown internationally so people have to understand him. Marketing etc.

    I think he might have twisted it when they went to ground and Conor and him were trying to get ankle locks on each other.
