Seems like an early stoppage because the time, but the same thing would have happened in round 2. Calvillo wasn't defending herself.

This girl is different at this weight class, faster than her opponents and none of her opponents can take or hit as hard.
(Obvi Valentina is just different!)

I have no idea why I thought Cavillo could survive Andrade. Short white bus pick of the year.

Really hoping Blaydes doesn't show negative fight IQ again. He should be a much more serious contender then he lets himself be.

I will never get used to GSP with hair. He looks like Vanilla Ice. A Vanilla Ice that would absolutely wrestle**** you for 25 minutes.

@ Peace it's a bit like when there's an op ed in the Financial Times encouraging people to buy some rancid penny stock, and then you find out  a month later whoever wrote it is blowing someone in a hedge fund and they bought short calls on the ticker.

Nervous for Blaydes here. I hope he doesn't get baited into a game of punchface.
