Good stoppage by Herzog. Quinlan having to fight Waters and Barlow back to back is wicked. Hopefully the UFC keeps him around and gives him a decent matchup next, especially since he took this fight on short notice.

Were you talking about Zhang/Ribeiro as the next banger alert?

Barlow sounds like every word went through a random word generator by ChatGPT.

I flip flopped on this pick. Zhang has an inflated record but is legitimately dangerous, same for Ribeiro but with slightly better competition, not sure about this one.
