I just noticed the UFC events page is different and has no pictures of the main event fighters or the dropdown arrow.Obviously not important but I don't like it.

Perry keeps improving I feel he will learn from this and come back even better. This Ponzinibbio win and his last felt tainted to me because of the eye pokes.

No it wasn’t a close round at all. Perry was not walking through his shots ponz was teeing off on him against the fence while perry was covering up. He was soundly outstruck in round 2. Nobody scored it 10-8 the fight was scored 29-28 ponz

Accidental eyepokes doesnt taint victories unless its. Really vicious. Perry didnt change at all after the eyepoke. It had no effect on the fight.

Who did Ponzi call out for an interim title fight?I missed it.Also,I keep hearing that Woodley is the most active UFC champ,wouldn't that be Mighty Mouse?Took him a year and a half just to get back in the cage after waiting for a gift title shot,that has to be considered.Maybe he fought his last 4 fights in a shorter amount of time than MM but MM is the most consistent champion in UFC history and who even knows when Tyron fights again.He'll be playing the game and sitting on this "i'm the most active UFC champion" crap for a while.

It’s harsh to say but I feel like lamas hasn’t fought anyone that is a risk to his place in the rankings for a long time. It’s either unranked people that have no business being in there with him or the top 2 where losing doesn’t move him down. Edit: Risk is the wrong word clearly

I knew at his age lamas was going to fall off that cliff soon but I think he wins this fight 99 times out of 100. Cormier it bounced 4 times not that it’s relevant

Lamas now 0-3 vs. TAM fighters, 1-4 vs. short stocky wrestlers as said in the Bestfightpicks podcast.
