That's because he had already done enough to win the fight. Can't blame him there.

I think Khabib would've mauled Volkanovski, and certainly more convincing than Makhachev did. Just my opinion though.

So far really good prelims. As for the main event, no idea if Jones will win. He's clearly less in shape than previous fights. His natural ability should get him by but if it goes the distance he could be in trouble.

WTF Gane?

Hope Miocic gives Jones a better fight than that


Valentina losing was the biggest shocker tonight

Amazing talent, but the victory speech is a good reminder how I can't stand the fake good ol' Christian boy act

Looks like some terrible prep to fall into that trap to quickly. Terrible. I hate Jones.

OMG is anyone watching this?

Mokaev's knee was just bent forward hard but he refused to tap and is still fighting on. Wow.

Edit: and he wins by submission, can't even walk wow!!

That's just stupid. Insane that he won, but why suffer a potentially career altering injury to do so?

Wouldn’t surprise me if this card has Nunes headlining it. Maybe flyweight belt? Who knows but interested to see who they put on it

Apparently these are three fights:
  • Women's Flyweight bout: Miranda Maverick vs. Jasmine Jasudavicius
  • Middleweight bout: Eryk Anders vs. Marc-André Barriault
  • Women's Strawweight bout: Diana Belbiţă vs. Maria Oliveira

Yeah with 290 being the fight week card I'm not optimistic about what will headline this one especially in such a short window. Hopefully something worthwhile comes together but fully expecting Nunes to headline.

No talk about the UFC and WWE combining to one company? Seems like UFC will be swallowing up Bellator and others eventually making a true monopoly on the fight game so nobody can go anywhere else. WWE though just makes me laugh - grown men watching wrestling and being enamored by bright colours is still funny.

Looks like Stephen Thompson is on the card - fighting the jumpy spinny capoeira bloke who gasses out quickly

Should be a decent scrap
