Oh how the mighty have fallen. Rashad needed to retire three years ago.

I don't care that the main isn't a title fight I'm considering it a defense if rob wins.

I didn't always like Rashad, but his skills were undeniable. Those skills are gone now. I hope for his personal health he hangs it up. He was destroying the top fighters at 205 and now I would have to search hard for someone he would be favored against at 185-205.

Two types of hw fights outside the elite. Banger where someone gets destroyed, or two out of shape guys chasing each other and gassing after 3 minutes. I don't know enough about either guy enough to say which this will be. Hoping for a banger.

That was sloppy and pretty much ammy level skill on display, but I don't care. That was enjoyable for a round and a half. Nice win for De La Rocha, but he won't last for much longer in the UFC.

That's probably the end of the line for coulter. Good reffing.

What's the positive of this fight? De la Rocha struggled to beat the lowest ranked HW in the UFC.
