Masvidal got a great gig here handing over the BMF belt and getting a cheque to help him with his legal battle.

This card has delivered so far. All fights ended by finish except for the Vergara win. I honestly don't see these last two fights go to the judges either.

It pains me to bet against such a likeable guy coming out to the ceremonials with a Witcher medallion around his neck but here we are.
