Close enough to go either way, but I had Marquardt winning rounds 1 and 3.

No Zarog, luckily for them they followed Assuncao/Sterling because that was worse but it's pretty bad when the crowd boos a hometown guy's fight. 

It was worse in one way - I mostly expected the BW fight to be boring but not an Alvey fight.

What an awesome win for Knight. Guy has a big future in Featherweight.  I think this is the year he cracks the top 15.

I want Arlovski to win...a lot,I want N'Gannou to win cause it would be good for the division.Still hoping for Arlovski though,but either way i'll be happy.I'd be really happy if Arlovski doesn't just get ktfo real quick tbh.N'Gannou is generally a bit of a slow starter despite some early ko's,so I think Arlovski has a chance to steal momentum and potentially run with it.

At the beginning of this fight I was wondering what goes through the mind of someone like Andrei who has to know on some level there's a very good chance he's about to get knocked out. The mere fact that he went out there and didn't fight like Assuncao or Sterling is so impressive.
