These promos are low key fire ngl. The UFC really is the top dog in combat sports. They really managed to salvage this into a PPV I wouldn't mind paying for (still not going too lol)

We're taught to respect our elders, but what if our elders are fighting in a main event on a UFC card? I guess we respectfully watch them beat the **** out of one another?

It's a competitive fight, but Leech in a striking contest against a bigger stronger more durable guy with better boxing? Like... what advantage is left?

Please UFC no switch and bait with the start times, if it starts in 20 minutes from now I want a refund for the 30 mins of my life I wasted.

Interesting start fight, both guys have a high number of takedowns per 15 and 0% TDD. The second stat is because neither one has had to defend a single takedown in the UFC yet including contender series.

They started 2 minutes past once which caught me completely off guard.

Ian Gary wasn't able to stop Weeks, I would guess Yohan won't either,in fact he just might get finished by Weeks later in the fight.

Some cappers I listened to had this as a near lock for Weeks, I capped it 50/50. We'll see.
