This card was pretty good pre co- and main event and those were like hitting the nitrous button

@Yoss yeah that was ridiculously stupid. He should have stopped trying that on the first time he was rocked.

I don't like Max at 155 Bruce. I think he'll get either mahandled or TKO'ed up there, eventually. Gaethje would probably murderize him. He should go back to FW, he has no future at LW.

Welp it's nurmy vs poirier for the strap. You think Dustin can pull it off?

This card, in the Jouban vs Grant, Gastelum vs Adesanya, and Poirier vs Holloway fights, we got to see three very different fighters (try and) deal with a significant deficit in striking power.  Obviously, the results varied considerably.  But both Jouban and Holloway were concerned enough with the shots coming back at them* that they weren't able to capitalize on those many "swingin' for the bleachers" punches which left their opponents wide open.

* obviously Max got hit quite a bit, but there were plenty of times where he did move out of the way while Poirier leaned considerably outside of his stance and Max didn't take advantage of it.  Grant, of course, did this every time he threw, as Cormier mentioned during the fight.

Khabib subbed both Conor and Michael Johnson. Conor and Michael Johnson both knocked out Dustin in the first round. Just food for thought.

MMA Math is a debunked principle.

By that logic Charles "Krazy Horse" Bennett is better than GSP.

Bennett beat KJ Noons, who beat Nick Diaz, who beat BJ Penn, who beat Matt Hughes, who beat GSP.

The theory is meh at best.
