He's by no means the most technical or skilled fighter, but from everything I've seen inside and outside of the UFC Clay Collard is incapable of having a boring fight.

Hopefully this ref's night is done after this fight. "CAREFUL HE'S GROUNDED" like 5 seconds after the knee lands, with no time, or separation.

How many people that picked White think he won that round?

I got Collard up 2 rounds. White's corner agrees.

Collard looks like he's done.  If White has some left in the tank he may get the 3rd round finish.

19-19. Don't see how anyone could give Clay the 1st.

Guess im in the minority though. White landed like 6 flush shots in the 1st. Collard didn't do anything but get a 10 second takedown.

LOL, and Rogan and Goldy agree.

Besides all those people, basically no-one gave Collard the 1st round.
