Thoughts:
Souza 30-27? Huh?
Jandiroba vs Felice Herrig felt like an alternate timeline PVZ-Ribas where neither fighters are nearly as hot or good
Pichel saying **** your jiu-jitsu thats why im a fan
Dodson frustratingly shy to pull the trigger
Pineda with an extremely impressive perofrmance but **** that drug using cheat
Lets not talk about the JDS fight i dont want to cry again
Kind of early stoppage by Dean in the o malley fight but man *** happened to his legs
Stipe kept forgetting to get his hands up on clinch breaks but all worked out i guess. STIPE STIPE STIPE
Overall great event had a ton of fun

My picks have gone to hell

Predictions: 3 of 8 Winners, 2 Perfect, 200 Points   |   Tied for 3160th

We need to go back to fight island! I was doing so well with those cards! 90% of all my picks for those cards were right. But now we're back in vegas, and my luck as ran out. But hey, I'm not salty at all!

What we LEARNED TONIGHT :

Predictions: 6 of 11 Winners, 4 Perfect, 465 Points   |   Tied for 593rd

DC is too old 
O'Malley was just hype - an official clown
Merab loves to grapple only
Felice Herrig loves money and will take a quick L
Pinchel is tough as nails
Bibi boy is really good.
JDS should become a teacher.

Think O”Malley will have more of a future at 145 because he 6”1 at 135, he to frail and him beefing up could be good because love him or hate him he has talent

Should Sean O'Malley stay at 135 or move up ?

Predictions: 6 of 11 Winners, 4 Perfect, 465 Points   |   Tied for 593rd

Sean O'Malley is a perfect GATE KEEPER in both divisions....

It doesn't really matter !!  He can get a lot of wins fighting no-names or punch drunk old veteran fighters. 
Real caliber would just eat his lunch.

He has a huge talent for creativity & marketing for UFC fighters.  Thats an untapped niche!!

Eye Pokes? You talkin about eye pokes?

Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 2 Perfect, 425 Points   |   Tied for 899th

Didn't DC poke Stipe in the eye like 3 times prior? And he's talking about eye pokes? With Stipe I can see an accidental one occurring just because of the distance, but come on DC... bruh.

every fighter gets eye poked and every fighter complains about it. its an unfortunate part of mma due to the style of gloves needed to allow grappling and jiu jitsu. while there may be some very few fighters that do it intentionally how in hell do you determine that?

I’ve never been a DC fan so I’m happy with the outcome.  He looked like Fatty Wap at the end of the fight haha.

If Forest Whitaker portrays DC, then who plays Forrest Griffin and Robert Whittaker??
