Eddie made himself look amateur IMO. I thought Conor did well and all, but Eddie looked pretty average from the minute the bell rang save for the odd strike.
Great card though. I'd love to see Wonderboy and Woodley go at it again, I love watching Wonderboy's style. Romero's knee was just brutal. I really don't see Bisping having an answer for Romero other than trying to tire him out. Weidman had the right idea keeping the speed up and the range though.
Conor better put some weight on and go and fight Diaz or something, Khabib isn't going to be anywhere near as easy.

I see Conor is wanting a big slice of the financial pie, i wonder if the new management company will think his ego is getting to big/CM thinks he is bigger than the UFC and it all goes wrong
Is he not by far and away the best paid fighter already? I think he is chancing it again, and why not? he is their major cash cow. However now that they are taken over by a more professional operation it will be hard to see the tail wagging the dog. lemmingjames said:

I can seriously upping his money I just cant see them doing what he wants and giving him shares whilst he is still fighting ....to much controversy if a fight went to points and he won.... I would be speaking to Mayweather if I was him, he certainly would have a few ideas for him how to get more £££ out of it...you cant blame him either, yes he is paid a lot more than the others but is that a case of the others are massively under paid considering how much the UFC now makes...I think that is the case more than Connor is paid enough...
Id say the other fighters are massively underpaid. It would be interesting to see what the PPV figures are for when he is on the card vs when he isnt and if that justifies his purse. Sure his trash talking hypes up the fights and gets the latest band wagon nut huggers interested).
CM would need to release his own branding id imagine to make more money, aka TMT.
Just had something on Facebook where one person asked why Mayweathers hype antics where frowned upon yet everyone loves CM's (apparently, i dont but there you go) and its all down to racism

Henry Hooft is/was a world class guy but you can sense the panic just reading the words on the page.

Wasn't Rousey the face of the UFC which Dana was trying so hard to promote. Then she got crushed and dropped off the scene. A few defeats and Conor will lose some of his appeal for the big bosses. He's really due to actually fight someone who can put in a few good rounds. Most of his opponents have put in poor efforts.
