Because he didn't beat Emeev, Emeev got robbed as he clearly won at least a 29-28, I'm not mad as Emeev is so boring to watch, But he did win the fight, Also had money on Robert at 4 to 1, So happy also

But I don't like Trinaldo being 43, How many fighter has wins at 43 in the UFC??? I think it only Anderson Silva, Randy Coutour,  Dan Hendo, and Alexi Olinik are the only ones, But they could be a few more, I think Danny Roberts is the better pick

Guys what do you think about Melissa Gatto, is she well rounded? Her record says she's kinda green but at the same she seems legit, 1st round sub vs Rosa and Body kick stoppage vs Eubanks. On other hand Cortez is experienced, with victories over fighters like Blanchfield, Agapova and Egger.

She's one of my favorite fighters. She's rapidly improving between every fight. She's made me good money against leonardo and eubanks, and she'll keep making me money. She throws a lot of straight shots on the feet. Very active on the gorund. Amazing cardio. Dosent have good wrestling but nobody really does at womens flyweight. 

All aboard the Gatto 🚂

Trinaldo is still going despite being a 155er and being 43 years old. Danny roberts sucks lol. Poor chin and bad grappling.

Chandler has really good submission defense. Feel like that would be highly unlikely

If you know first round Joe Lauzon, Cerrone is screwed. I remember Donald Cerrone defending Conor at their press conference, a reporter asked about Conor's ground game and Cerrone started getting agitated saying 'You think this guy doesn't have any ground game' or something to that extent.

Then a reporter asked about Conor's alleged sexual assault, again Cerrone got up and pretty much attacked the reporter saying don't get into Conor's personal life, etc. As a fight fan, I had never seen such a thing. I hope Joe goes out there and finishes Cerrone



Joe Lauzon has also never covered up and given up like Cerrone unless he was DONE.

"how does cowboy lose? tell me the exact way lol"


This is hilarious considering how he has lost all his last fights. Joe doesn't cover up like that, Joe has more left in the tank then a man who gives up once he's tagged once. 

Cerrone is 0-5 right now


I'll answer your question, Joe comes out fast and Cerrone turtles. I will even do an avatar bet for a week, 2 weeks, even a month. 

but hey you bring up some good points about Joe, it's a coin toss up at this point but I do like the match-up as it's on both men's levels at this point in their career.

comes out fast lol if he comes out fast then why guida koed him in 40 seconds hahahahahahahahaha.

the reason why cerrone been struggling recently is because hes fighting 170ers who are legit ufc level. guys that can bully cerrone.

lauzon can make 145, he is small for 55. he has 1 legit win since 2016.

and cerrone never been out grappled in the ufc. all his losses come from striking.

if alexander hernandez cant be cerrone, then lauzon def cant

cowboy round 2 ko headkick

Let's just hope it's a good retirement fight for both men, I suppose I was ripping on Cerrone a little too much there.
