    They both do. It's been a pretty poor spectacle.

    Awful advert for this proposal but shouldn't the UFC make co-mains be 5 rounds too?

    They can't in Nevada unless it's a title fight.

    That's the only reason McGregor vs Mendes was made into an interm title fight, otherwise it would have had to be 3 rounds.

    Its the same in any state, its 3 rounds but the governing commission can allow a non title fight to be 5 rounds.

    McGregor v Mendes had nothing to do with that. It was made an interim fight because Aldo had pulled out of 5 title fights. The UFC wanted there to be an interim title holder so that if Aldo didnt fight eventually they already had someone in place with the title, and to show him they werent happy with him missing so many title fights.

    Would love to see Dodson pull this off but think DJ will manage to hold out for the 5 rounds or catch Dodson off guard if he comes in too quick and gets sloppy.

    Ok, going to sound like a tool, I don't mind

    5???????????????????????????????

    I thought the interim belt was bull**** but surely 5 cop outs deserves some sort of repercussion.

    Was it different injuries for each?

    Yes but not really a discussion for this thread. Heres a list


    DJ and Dodson seems to genuinely hate each other at this stage. I cant help but see them like 2 of the seven dwarfs in the cage after the last 2 fights and the size of some of the guys.

    Mighty mouse the aggressor, hoping that works against him and Dodson catches him on the counter.

    Obviously I'd love a cheeky knee, but I'll see for a punch

    I have it 29-28 to DJ so far but DJ is starting to coast now and Dodson is getting frustrated, likely to make some sloppy mistakes and could get caught if hes not careful

    Hope Dodson catches him.

    Mighty Mouse looked very cocky at the end there.

    A clinic from Mighty Mouse. He's so under-appreciated. Pretty cool that we could hear what the fighters/coaches etc were saying in the octagon after the fight, we don't usually get to hear that (well not clearly anyway).

    I'm off to bed a very happy man after Pearson won. :D

    No UFC for 3 weeks now however :( Thank Christ for that BAMMA event inbetween.

    Goodnight all and enjoy the Sunday lie in! :)

    50 - 43 for me.

    Mighty Mouse was so dominant, especially the last two rounds.

    Maybe time for the UFC to get rid of the flyweight division. Too boring and that fight isnt going to help matters

    haha might mouse 'I respect you as a man, even though you talk **** about me'

    Dodson 'We gotta hype this **** up'

    Appreciate how great MM is...but no seats sold at all. That's what Dodson was trying to do. Why can't he understand that?

    He was clinical but no where near dominant enough to get 2x 10-8

    Not as great a fight as was hoping for but a decent enough card overall.

    Time to sleep, later folks!

    Agreed, he was dominant.

    He's humble and brilliant but it doesn't sell shows unfortunately.

    He picked his punches but he didnt destroy him or dominate him on the ground to merit getting 10-8. Was always gonna be 50-45 or 49-46 with Dodson getting the second round. DJ didnt have to move into second gear the whole fight, Dodson was getting picked off and seemed a lot more reserved than their last fight. Left it too easy for DJ to control the pace and land his punches.

    The main event was a great show of technique, footwork and speed, it certainly had more action than the dreadful Arlovski/Mir fight that preceded it but the problem with the flyweights is that it's almost an exhibition, for the most part it seems to be fighting with the element of danger removed. I appreciate the fighters immense skills but once you remove that element of danger you are removing the excitement.

    Haven't watched the full main card yet (only Mir AA as I had money on), so havent read the full card, so apologies if this was posted.
    But I got a good lol at this

    Arlovski striking wasn't good enough if he wants a run at the title, had him win it but a poor enough fight.

    Dodson is a good fighter however DJ is untouchable Defo had it 49-46 with Dodson just about winning round 2.

    The lads are biased at all towards PVZ even at the start of the first round they were praising here over and over. She needs a good 18 months before she gets a title shot or she will be destroyed.
