Great fight. Both are scrappy as hell, but Melendez's size should give him the edge.

Awesome co-main event for the Mexico City Card. Can't wait to see Mendelez and Alvarez fight.

Not a huge fan of either (which is dumb on my behalf because they're both great) but at least it's a very solid replacement headliner for when Cain pulls out.

We should just have a rule that Alvarez can only fight Chandler and be done with it.

I wonder if the UFC will wants to do multiple Mexico cards a year just like they with Brazil.

Ya ... cuz GSP being slightly larger than a Gil Melendez who is wearing a ******* winter coat is certainly suspicious.

Christ. Diaz gonna Diaz.

This just in:  A 170 lb fighter being similar in size to a 155 lb fighter is proof of PEDs.  Or something.

Gil is substantially smaller than GSP....GSP has at least an inch of height, a few in reach, he has a wider torso especially the chest and upper back region. People seem to forget GSP has a really well built lower body, big thighs, calfs, glutes. Gil looks bigger than he appears because he carries a lot more body fat than GSP too.

Diaz is just an uneducated fool.

Trolling? To take a walk or stroll?
