Gamebred

Gastelum via Submission

After speaking to Holloway last month he was saying nobody hit him harder in the octagon than Andre Fili whose on this undercard,Pointless fact for ye.

Magny via Submission

Sickened Brown isn't fighting. Really looking forward to the Sanchez fight. Should be interesting weigh ins for both him and Gastulum

CatFromHue

Gastelum made weight and was very happy looking on the scales.

Cejudo looked like he was ****ting it, he did make weight but got naked to do so.

The bit of hype around him this year has gotten to him maybe,olympic gold medalist tipped to dethrone DJ looks a bit of a decision machine,hes gonna be lost without them gold trunks lol

Can't stand Fili. Hopefully he gets sparked out. I think he'll win though unfortunately.

Morpork

I'll vote in the poll after the fight.

It was more that he looked like was ****ting it about making weight. He didn't look comfortable walking out at all and didn't try making weight clothed, he took the towel option straight away.

I think in the past he's had problems making weight too.

Formiga too big an underdog? Hope Jorgensen loses also could say more but I'd tip the needle well into fighter bashing.

I thought it was in Mexico city but it's not, it's in Monterrey which is only 540 meters, not really high enough to benefit Magny all that much.

Not as an exciting main event as it would have been with Brown involved. The Lamas/Sanchez and Lapilus/Perez fights are two I'm looking forward to.

Former could be a really good ground battle but it'll be interesting to see how Sanchez gets on seeing as he's not been in a fight since June 2014.

Sanchez is apparently already weighing over 170lbs after weighing in at 145 yesterday! He has rehydrated over 1lb an hour since weigh in!! That's unreal!!

Subcomandante Marcos

Gastelum via KO/TKO

that's insane.

ASOT

Gastelum via KO/TKO

Going with Sanchez by KO and Magny decision. Card looks poor on paper hopefully there's some good scraps.

Absolute robbery from the judges there. Horrendous decision.

Subcomandante Marcos

Gastelum via KO/TKO

oooohhh. the fightpass premils started?

Jessica Jones can wait until tomorrow!

Easy Rod

Yeah poor decision alright.

Strange ko there, I'm not one for the tinfoil hat but didn't look like much power behind the shot and looked more like cheek than chin.

Gastelum via KO/TKO

Whats the story with the new fightkits?

Paully D

Very nice finish from Herrera.

Jorgensen loses here he'd wanna pack it in.

Gamebred

I wonder sometimes how many fights a certain fighter has to lose to get cut compared to others
the last time I thought this about another fighter was paulo thiago who was clearly going nowhere before finally getting the chop

Subcomandante Marcos

Gastelum via KO/TKO

I hate this fight.

mailburner

this lad loses two and he'll be cut...sadly tonight wont be the start of that streak

Yup. Thought they'd just gone mad for the latinos to be honest.

Wrongway1985

This is just a dreadful fight for a close fight too

Its 4 rounds if it goes to a draw, its to avoid the catastrophe that was the last TUF final where the fight ended a draw and they had to give them both a contract/prize.

Wrongway1985

Griffin & Bonnar hope they had a snigger at that....also only tuned into main card Jorgensen losing will b played back during the next break.

Diego Sanchez is the Ric Flair of MMA. He'll still be fighting in ten years.

ASOT

Gastelum via KO/TKO

Magny just can't stop winning. 9-1 in his last 10 with a few wins on short notice, love the guy. Sanchez is just a warrior, doesn't stop coming forward. Pretty poor card overall, still don't think Jorgenson will get cut which is madness, should have been stopped as soon as he hurt himself but he said on twitter he told them not to stop it, dairy okay to Perez for not attacking the damaged area could have butchered him.

8 decisions in a row, thank Christ I fell asleep after the Fili/Benitez fight.

Watched it all back this morning and I had it 48-47 Gastelum in the main event. Interesting to see only one member of the media had the same score while 4 scored it 48-47 to Magny and 11 scored it a 47-47 draw.

I gave the first 3 to Neil & last two to Kelvin. 4th could have been a 10-8 but I scored it a 10-9 seems to be the general concensus with the media aswell.

TimRiggins

Rd 4 could have been a 10-8 but when Kelvin knocked Magney down Magney still had his wits about him and was immediately using his Jujitsu. I thought Magney deserved to win the fight, especially after fighting 5 rounds on 2 weeks notice. Kelvin started excelling when Magny got gassed.

Was also very suprised about how easily Magny was able to take Kelvin down. Great fight though.

To be honest, if he got the finger out, he'd make 155. He looks soft at 170.

JoeyJJ

Delighted for Magny, like watching him fight. I wish he could develop some decent kicks. It was a tight decision total swing of a fight.
