Andrade is kinda cute.

I'd love to watch Conor McGregor fight Cole Miller.  Then we could really see what his ground game is like.

This might be slightly paraphrased, but it's pretty close:

"I don't know what's up with these judges messing up my record on my last fight, and I don't know what's up with these [British? European?] fighters. Ross Pearson couldn't beat me. Andy Ogle couldn't beat me. Dennis Siver can't beat me. And Conor McGoober can't beat me."

Or Conor would knock Miller the **** out before anyone whispered a word of grappling. @Ifightbears.

If Miller feels like a badass he could always move back to 155 and squash that Cerrone beef.

Oh don't get me wrong, I'd love nothing more than to watch Conor put Cole Miller out cold.  I would absolutely love it.  Being Irish I'm a huge Conor McGregor fan but I'd still like to see more of his ground game before naming him the second coming.  I just think Cole Miller would be a good gauge of what his defensive game is like because it'll take all but 30 seconds before Miller realizes he'd be extremely outclassed on the feet.

But I would love to see Conor put hiim out.

WMMA purists hate when you criticize the previous generation of fighters as not being able to hack it against the new generation, but it's just the way it is.

Megumi, Sexton, LaRosa, Modafferi, Bayszler, etc... they're not up to this level of competition.   It's not saying their accomplishments were invalid.  It's just that the sport moves on and keeps getting better.

Damn, that was quite a beating. It'll be interesting to see how Sexton adjusts for this next round

Rogan is onto something with that Little Wanderlei comment. Andrade is a beast, she just has to be careful about punching herself out.

Rosi looks like she is a bit emotional between rounds, pretty hard to watch :/

Sexton just doesn't have the speed or athleticism to compete. That knee looked more on the shoulder to me.
