Actually Millender is looking real confident. Could be hitting his stride. He has fought some good competition in Bellator too.

I'm liking the commentary with Dom and Rogan. Forcing each other to bring out true knowledge. Challenging each other. This will be interesting all night.

I’m all about more 10-8s but I don’t think he was active enough in GNP or advancing position for subs

1-1. All comes down to this, but Millender is getting more confident.

I gave it to Millender. He stuffed the td and landed the better shots.

Good work judges. About time after that ****show yesterday.

Welp looks I make that pick owing to sheer dumb luck. Meant to pick Griffin. That's karmic equilibrium after getting ripped off on that Marquez pick yesterday.

Hey the good thing is Curtis recognized where he needs to improve. If he finds himself in that position against the elite, he will get damaged bad.
