    I don't give a f--- about what you think about Gaethje's vulnerabilities. But I can't let you slide anymore when you come in acting like what you say is LAW, when you're in the extreme minority on a lot of your opinions, especially this one.

    Sorry bruh

    Sounds like an arbitrary rule from athletic commission. I'm sure it could be abused somehow.

    That's kind of creepy man. I get along with everybody else just fine. No need to feel intimidated.

    Lol, okay. Hope you resolve some of the issues you've apparently been dealing with for a long time now. Good luck.

    The issues of not wanting to be a d-ck and call you out for being a know-it-all try hard? lol I think I'll be able to resolve those issues. Kind of a weird spin you're attempting, but I guess I'm not surprised. Combat sports only fans usually are weird dudes.

    Ugh, sounds like they kinda tried.

    Jessica Eye vs. Valentina would be cool since they were both supposed to fight yesterday or today but had their opponent not be able to, I imagine it's too late for that though too.

    Will they just bump Nunes/Valentina to 214 or a later show?

    214 has 3 Title fights now, so probably won't happen until 215 in Edmonton on September 9th. Although I guess they could move it to the headliner of the next FOX card and bump Weidman/Gastelum to the Co Main.

    Bochnovic might not have even been 'Dana White Tuesday Night Contender' caliber, Giles is a solid enough prospect but hes beaten far better guys on his way to the UFC.

    I'm torn between who I want to win between Romero and Whittaker. I like them both. I think I'm gonna pull for Romero because I want to see him vs Bisping

    Im surprised they are doing 3 title fights again, UFC must be hoping atleast some of them end in finishes
    Romero gotta win this

    The Romero vs Bisping banter has far to much entertainment potential to be ruined by Bobby Knuckles

    Expected more from the Blaydes fight tbh, Miller/Petis was real good though.

    Good fight. Sucks Romero won't get his shot at Bisping. Bisping has sat back and watched both him and Jacare lose contention. Hope Whittaker sleeps him.

    I only saw the Travis Browne fight and the main card but here's some thoughts:
    Travis Browne needs to retire ASAP
    Rob Font needs a step up in competition
    Anthony Pettis looked better than he has in years. Great fight against Miller, hope to see him back as soon as possible
    The two heavyweight fights were boring as s---
    Main event was awesome. Michael Bisping would've beaten the s--- out of the Yoel Romero that showed up last night though. Bisping vs Whittaker and The winner of Woodley vs Maia vs GSP should be the two main events at MSG
