Take an afternoon nap after UFC Macao (I'll need one), then get right back here for a pretty solid Tulsa card. 

We've got one Fight Pass prelim at 730pm ET, followed by four prelims on FS2, then the six-fight main card on FS1.

I've already heard this five times Ellenberger picks RDA by TKO. Just move on now.

I can't stand how UFC rankings have the champ as "C" and the top contender at "1" ... it's so counter-intuitive.

Champ = 1

Top contender = 2

Listening to the sound of Matt Serra's commentary is hilarious.  "You gotta avoid the clinch like a plague or it's gonna be a problem." Read that in Serra's thick new york accent and it's hilarious.

Henderson just said Dos Anjos is on a 5-6 fight win streak. Does he even follow MMA? He's on a one fight streak, and that one win is Jason ******' High.

Cool to see Matt Serra again. But I just want Serra to say about a fighter that "They are a ****, but a very talented ****"

But I dont see Hughes fighting anytime soon.

RDA is deserving of his ranking, but Bendo is about to outclass him and show the huge difference there is between the top 4 lightweights (Showtime, Gil, Bendo, Khabib) and the rest of the division.

This fight looks so much like a ******** split decision in Bendo's favour... Rafael is underrated as hell and good everywhere, but he doesn't like being grinded.

EDIT: I am, admittedly, a RDA fan. I would pick him against Khabib in a rematch, actually, so disregard everything I say from now on.

He was 100% out, but woke up immediately. Hardcore borderline.
