As an aside, what is Jacoby made of? He has maybe the best chin/recovery combo in the higher weight classes. Alonzo was throwing hammers after dropping him bad, and dude was still rising like Mullarkey did last week. Except he actually survived the onslaught

What a way to end the UFC year. 😮‍💨

The card was so good as well, the main event was a let down.

Only dummies let Alonzo be their parlay buster. Seriously. What a coin flip.

I was convinced Leon could win against Shavkat, but his fighting IQ sometimes is really questionable.

If he tries to take Shav down, he's ******.

The best thing the UFC can do, especially after this title fight, is to book Leon vs Shavkat and Belal vs Colby

Hit a parlay tonight but came close with a good few which kinda sucks, great card to close out the year anyway

Once again, I schooled you all with my UFC predictions – a master of the game, unlike you clueless followers. Congrats to those smart enough to ride my coattails; the rest of you haters are just background noise to my success. Don't bother trying to understand my genius; it's a gift you'll never possess. I'll be back in 2024 to effortlessly extend my reign as the undisputed king of sports betting.

I'm not from the USA, but it is obvious that if the Patriots of 1776 had the same cowardice that Covington demonstrated tonight against Leon when they faced the British Soldiers, USA would still be a British Colony.

Colby is either a very good man, secretly, or maybe he was sabotaged, it is all very interesting. I believed Leon could knock Colby out, and even that it would go to decision, but this is just weird. Donald Trump there too like ***.
