I watched footage on Avila yesterday and was surprised at how far from UFC level he was.I was thinking maybe he improved a lot but looked about the same.I don't like that people's buddies get picked up by the UFC while they cut great fighters like Sarah Kaufman.I hope that kid doesn't get another fight.

Lol, just realized I may have messed up my $500 parlay chain on the Wagering League by putting down Perry instead of Lim.

So, I wonder if Garbrandt steps over Dillashaw for the next shot at Cruz.

Sucks. I had a feeling that was going to happen, and picked it, but I really wanted Mizu to win that. Garbrandt needs a shot at a top 5 guy.

Forget Cody Garbrandt. The next title shot should and will go to the people's champ, Bryan Caraway.

If the UFC throws Garbrandt into a title fight with Cruz right now, Cruz will steamroll him.

Oh, I think Garbrandt should beat a top-5 guy. Maybe let him and Caraway battle it out for the title shot while Cruz fights Dillashaw again. It's just that I could totally see the UFC giving the shot to Cody now.

I personally think that the UFC should have Garbrandt square off with the winner of Dodson-Lineker.
