    Two poor grapplers here.

    No.
    Two pretty evenly matched intermediate grapplers.

    Paige is way too small for that division, carrying a lot of fat and still was getting thrown around, great win though.

    I think she popped the shoulder out.
    I'm just going off video without sound. In the pub and boxing is volume is up.

    A surprisingly good fight to watch. Still not convinced PVZ will ever trouble the top dogs in her division but she’s still young and she does seem eager to improve.

    I was just going by how quickly it happened and Paige let go. Seemed like she knew something popped/snapped. Seems like it was a pop.

    Joe Benavidez is genuinely one of the soundest guys I've ever met in any walk of life. Met him three times now and each time he's been a complete gent. Plus his Mrs is a cracker. Benavidez Abù

    She's a 115er fighting in easier 125.
    A few wins and experience and she'll be back to 115.

    Finish sequence was decent grappling, but the fight was intermediate as SM said. There was a few glaring mistakes during.

    How is Hardy allowed to fight as a co-main event on a double champion headlined card? Even putting aside his questionable past, he's only 3-0. There are plenty of MMA fighters with far better records and much better reputations who deserve that spot. The WME executives who run the UFC should seriously pull Dana and the matchmakers up on these kind of decisions because it's not a good look for the company let alone a smart business move.

    Hardy you fcuking idiot. Delighted for him getting DQ’ed like the joke he is.

    Hope Crowder is okay though.

    He's absolutely fine. It was a terrible knee, weak connection and Crowder milked it

    If you there no was was a hard strike you need to watch more fights. The lads had no energy from 60secs. Flopping about.

    Not excusing the illegal knee. Just pointing out it that there was no power behind it.

    It was way later than the Cowboy stoppage. I don't understand this need to stop fights early, really unsatisfactory ending.

    Not sure about too early. His legs went at least twice in that exchange. The ref gave him the chance after the first fall, Henry wasn't giving him the chance to recover, that doesn't give the ref much of a choice tbh.

    Cody Garbrandt beats Cejudo easily because his cut is pretty easy compared to TJs imo. Probably his best shot at setting up a rematch with TJ too but for the 125 strap.

    Champion v champion fights have been so one sided.

    Thought the ref could've given tj a bit more time but sure they are either too early or late in someones eyes and he probably would have taken extra punishment unnecessarily

    Honestly I don't know if you're trolling or not or maybe drunk? I've seen it at least 20 times on twitter and it is one of the worst late strikes I've seen. It didn't actually connect with the temple but hit him close to the back of the head, which is worse. He was on one knee so had no balance to soften the blow, Hardy centred himself and stepped into it. He actually tried to grab the side of Crowders head to pull it closer to the knee.



    If you're honestly going to say there was "no power" behind it then I suggest you need to stop watching fights altogether. They are Heavyweights fpr god sake it's hardly going to tickle now is it. Here have another look.
