Yeah, Ellenberger is still in his fighting prime. This is another fight where I think people are counting Ellenberger out.

This is the biggest fight of Gastelum's career. The big question is, what's going to win it for both fighters.........Ellenberger's hands and skills, or Gastelum's will to win and ability to push the pace?

Well, so much for Ellenberger. He can pretty much be cut at this point.

Gastelum will easily be the best TUF fighter to ever come out of the show. Future champ, if he can keep his weight right.

Before I could even finish my last post, my argument just collapsed on itself. I don't know if Ellenberger is done, but he's definitely not the fighter that I thought he was.

Ellenberger needs to stop changing things so much. After each loss, he changes "something" and always looks worse.

LoL, I wonder if Ellenberger's slide coincides with Jordan MacDonald leaving him? Or are they still together? If they are he should get rid of her, if they are not he should try to get her back.
