UFC seems to be forgetting who has and hasn't fought lately. I remember at the Fight Night in Japan the commentators were making it sound like Saffiedine was Gyu Lim's first UFC fight and it was like...NOPE.

What's more annoying Yamasaki making hearts before every fight or Hornacek wiping his face off every time he shot a free throw?

Benitez has as many guillotine chokes in this fight as Cody McKenzie has in his career.

It's going to suck if Benitez doesn't win by submission via guillotine choke.

Both the Brazilian color commentator and Minotauro Nogueira said "pretty clear 10-9 Benitez".

I guess... I guess they don't know judges know nothing about grappling.
