This week was pretty awesome, but...

Silva vs Pacheco was genuinely one of the best fights that I've seen in a long time. It absolutely delivered. Kareckaite vs Judice was also a war, those ladies threw down all fifteen minutes. Soldatkin vs Piazzon was ******* terrible though. I've seen better wrestling at a high school meet. That, and the ******** rule about grounded knees got into the way of what could've been a deserved potential meet. I may sound salty, but I don't think that if you're in front of Dana White and trying to convince him as to why you're deserving of that contract, you should be that deadset on control time and wrestling when you're not able to progress into a submission. I fell asleep.

The last fight of the night was rad, I forget their names for some reason but it was a pretty cool knockout.

A truly wild fight card

I don't know if I have ever been more entertained watching a fight card in my life. The contender series this season has been absolutely crazy, and this was by far the best. First an absolutely vicious knockout followed by back-to-back wars?? The heavyweight fight was so boring and the referee was so bad I was actually laughing when he started acting like he couldnt see. I thought that whole situation was just extremely funny. Then the main event was a one sided mauling in like a minute. How would I rate this card? 100/10 for sure.
