    Anyone else notice/feel Cruz has slowed down in his commentary? I found him to be non stop babble really quickly when he started. Tonight he is more relaxed and I find him better. Although maybe it was just the first fight!

    They cut it off the fox broadcast but Nicolau said he got that victory to avenge Paddy Holohans loss...............

    How many ****ing times does everyone associated with the UFC have to mention the ****ing UFC Performance Institute? Every ****ing interview, every ****ing bit of media, every ****ing piece of commentary - UFC Performance Instutute, blah blah blah.

    Hitler would be proud of the propaganda about it.

    like this russian lad, took a fair beating last time out but stuck in there to win a split, tough as they come.
    It'll be interesting to see how cocky this lad is after a couple of rounds

    Yup. Rogan won't **** up about it.

    Anyone any idea how it works for fighters? Do they pay for our or is it effectively a sponsorship from the UFC? For example, Ngannou is based there full time now, with his own coaches. He's a huge prospect and potentially a meal ticket for the organisation. Would the 15th ranked heavyweight have the same opportunity?

    Big final round from Vettori. Tough to call alright. Vettori is pretty thick and lean for a middleweight.

    Remember thinking that if the whole MMA thing didn't work out for Rick Glenn, he always had the fall back option of a career as a 70s pornstar.

    The way ive heard it being spoke about by rogan etc. It seems to be open to everyone. How that works with two fighters fighting each other and prepping there may just be a timing thing so they avoid each other.

    Apparently ngannpus coach is with him there

    Awful fight. I'm not going to last. Hopefully be awake for at least Khabib-Barboza and the title fight.

    Joe must be getting a few quid for every 5 mentions of the performance institute

    Poor enough fights so far it has to be said. Think I'll leave the main card for tomorrow!
