Gaethje shut my mouth with this great performance, winning rounds 2 and 3 after being outmatched in the first round. FOTN and gets on a new title run. Under what logic was the fight 28-28? The last round was started by Fiziev almost dropping Gaethje, but Justin completely gave the fight with uppercuts.
PS: Gaethje shows really good Fight IQ and in-fight adjustment tonight!

As an OG nerd that read the GoT books before the tv-series was made let me point out that if you find Arya Stark androgynous that is good casting. She's supposed to look like a tomboy of indeterminate gender.

Excellent job my freind. I have to say I had Fiziev. But congratulations on the cash.

I think we both made it big this week. Again.

I had Fiziev as a pick, but Gaethje won the fight. Great win for him. And I agree with Kyle: Gaethje x Poirier 2

He definitely did or he would've led with the 28-28 score.

I wonder how many times the word "robbery" has been said in this thread?

Mainly because their hasn't been one robbery on this whole card.

Whoever scored that a 10 - 8 needs to be run out of town. That is just plain disrespectful to two warriors who gave everything. 

These judges are ******s like Mezzor, Sabbath and Dr Chaotic. 

Shameful score.

Honestly I think our society is escalating to a point where most people are either utterly apathetic or just ******* hate celebrities.
