Does Derrick Lewis still have it? Maybe? If he doesn't win this one, then he should retire

I have a feeling my parlay will get busted on the next one anyhow. I have De Lima as last leg which looks sketchy as **** after Lewis 10-8d him at the weigh-ins.

the fight finish in the saddest way possible. Tony needs stops fighting: either it is for money reasons, with the popularity that he has he can get the money in a safer way than getting punched in the face and if the issue is that Tony still thinks that he can trace his career around, I think that he must now accept that his reflexes and performance levels are no longer the same

Honest question, I was half watching the beginning: did Tony win the first round? It looked semi competitive from what I saw

Tony left a lot of himself in his extreme training volume, the damage factor being what it is. The joints and injuries piling up. The body can only take so much..he's slowed down tremendously. He still maintains an amazing will and volume despite all that. He has been and still remains one of my favorites of all time. CSO

De Lima has been in the ufc for 9 years and finally he gets a big chance. Let's see if he can break the top 10

De Lima is closer to showing abs now than during the weigh ins, must be the angle of the lights.
