    Casey stole that round, she would've gotten that armbar with 15 more seconds

    Should be an easy win for Casey, but with judges you never know.

    TOUGH TO SCORE THAT 1!

    Ithought Casey should've gotten it though as she hurt Waterson more than once and was seconds from finishing that armbar at the end. Once again wrestling outscores juijitsu

    that was a good fight i like Casey went for the subs off the bottom to much if she had worked to her feet she was killing Waterson there

    Too bad wrestling didn't outscore earlier in the Reis fight. Shows how inconsistent the judging is.

    Love this fight. Vettori is a very good fighter and a big challenge. I was picking him all week but changed my pick last minute. Let's see if the hype on Adesanya is real.

    That was terrible, you could argue that was 30-27 Casey, 29-28 at the least.

    Reis gets ripped off. 
    Casey gets ripped off.
    Both waterson and moraga ran for their lives
    And they get rewarded for it.
    Neither one will ever be a ufc champ.
    They should both fight in the lingerie fighting league
    These judges should b taken out back and put down
    Imediatly! B4 they ruin anymore of tonight's fights.

    Vettori needs to be looking for the takedown.

    Vettori doing better than most thought in that round, landed some good ones of his own.

    Probably 10-9 Israel though.

    Vettori is too slow and plodding. I wonder if the gameplan was to stand with Adesanya. If so, horrible game planning from Rafael Cordeiro.

    Style Bender is 100% in control of this match 
    He has the perfect read and his opponent is sucked into his game plan this is a great performance!
    Vettori has a chin to which makes this better

    Win or lose I think people need to pump the brakes on this Adesanya hype train.
