I like the variety of strikes Davis is throwing. Axe kicks, straight elbows, spinning backfists. You never know what's coming.

Davis kind of screwed himself by engaging the grappling. Looks to be slowing down a little.

Great fight, Peterson tried to win every second of that fight, but Davis was just far more technical on the feet.

29-28 Davis

Wonder what body fat % Davos had to cut in 2 weeks. He was spent. 

Entertaining filler fight.   Two scrappy guys who will go trade but simply not that good

Oh man, I wish UFC was always on Sunday’s now. I work all day every Saturday, so I miss most of the event by the time I get home. I’m always off on Sunday’s, so this is great!

Hopefully Millender didnt blow his wad. His legs are gonna get chewed up if he did.

Millender looking real dangerous and using his length and reach well.
Alves still has mad heart though.

Alves body has changed. He's old and new rules

Damn, that’s a scary man. Great debut for Millender. He’s gotten much better over the past couple years.

Classy not to murder Alves after the first round walk away attempt
