Main card was obviously less dramatic than last week. Main event made up for it though.

Prochaska must be a nightmare with shots coming from all angles. Final elbow was nasty!

LHW post Jon Jones looking exciting though I think it will be a while before we see another long reigning champion like Jones.

His low hands terrify me though, he took a lot of shots

Prelims is worth checking out. Some decent fights.

Main event was entertaining! As they said in the commentary, some amazing creativity. And as above, terrifying to watch.

I'm sure he was out on the up kick though?

Have to agree, amazing fight and I look forward to watching him again whoever he fights.
Also comes across well regardless of the language barrier

I think it's time for Cerrone to hang up the gloves.

Should have done it a long time ago tbh.

Would love to see him go up against some real competition in the UFC and get his arse kicked. I know he's lost before but he definitely needs to be knocked down a few pegs.

Agreed, a proper 'don't blink' bout.

That Barboza knockout was a strange, delayed reaction.

Fantastic card.

Such clinical, high level striking and ground work through out the card, it's a joy to watch. MMA really is evolving.

And don't skip the men's prelim fights either! (well maybe the UK dude)

ETA that moment when you see Tony Ferguson, think jeez, how old is he?! Then remember that you're 10 years older biggrin

Joe Rogan said he heard the arm break.

Beneil Dariush said he heard the knee pop.

I heard nothing but saw everything!

I didn't really hear in real-time but watched a Youtube video after about the arm snap and definitely heard it.

Good card, forget the guys name in the prelims but it did make me smile, he went absolutely savage on the guy and then just a polite bow at the end, always makes me grin
