Joanna's last post fight interview is worth listening.
Jiri needs to tidy up or he won’t be champ long; whole point of being freestyle is that you have the ability to evade and be unpredictable in your strikes. He gets clobbered far too much and even though he has a great chin, it’s finite and once gone, he’ll be cooked.
The dynamics of the division are going to be interesting over the next 18 months.

Yeah, I agree. Tremendous chin and withstood some shots that would have put anyone else down, but you can't take shots that flush and rely on your chin because it doesn't last forever.
Fights starting in 120 minutes.
Cowboy vs Lauzon gets cancelled last minute again.
TJ should be nowhere near a title shot
How so?
I don't think he beat Sandhagen personally, but that 'win' alone probably gets him there.
Cory ended up getting a shot at the title earlier anyway, so justice has already been served (kind of)
I think a drug cheat has to work his way up from the bottom instead of being 1 win away from a title shot. He’s benefiting from his wins as a drug cheat and doesn’t seem fair
What a consummate performance from Silva. Superb. The other girl's coaching team should have pulled at the end of the second; she was outclassed everywhere, even with her only hope, grappling.
Holland looked about the best I've seen him.
Really good card. Mostly quality fights straight through without the usual sloppiness.
This is Dana, does whatever the feck he wants
Great night of fighting. Paula di Silva was sensational, a proper schooling! Can't wait to see her again.
He really needs to stop. He's taking years off his life the way he gets sparked out cold. He's going to be slurring words before 40 at the rate he's going.
This fight was 3 years ago. Don't think he has fought since.
Really? Came up on my feed as new today. Weird!
If you're right, it's good he's taken steps back; he was taking serious damage, too much cumulatively.
I remember seeing the x-ray of his face after that fight, after looking it up it says he had 8 fractures and a 9 hour operation
Really looking forward to his weekends main and co-main event, Tsarukyan vs Gamrot feels like the future of the lightweight division and Rakhmonov making the step up against Magny should let us know if he's a potential challenger at welterweight, some other solid fights on the card too.
Brendan Loughane about to fight on PFL. First fight of the night just so the UK fans can watch.
Needs a finish to qualify for the finals. (USD$1million in play)

Mousasi 2 rounds down. Needs a finish or to win the next 3 now.
Edit. 3 rounds down.

I don’t keep up with 1 One or however they call it; didn’t even check the description when it came up on my feed (you were right, it was 3yrs ago!), but you simply cannot keep getting hit like that and it not destroying you. His face - 8 fractures - is horrendous, but you have to wonder about the other kind of damage, too, internal, to the brain. I don’t know if he’ll throw his hat in ever again, but if he does, he’s got to unlearn some of those traits of his - you can’t have your hands down, and have no head movement, it’s just suicidal, especially against so many circular styles in MMA where he’ll be attacked with hooks and elbows.I remember seeing the x-ray of his face after that fight, after looking it up it says he had 8 fractures and a 9 hour operation

I think it’s a good card: it’s strange how there is no discussion here about upcoming events anymore.
That Lucas Brennan kid looked a real pain in the hole to fight. Looked like he could submit you from anywhere - could have a great career if he keeps improving.
fights starting in an hour.
Heard this Rakhmonov is a bit of a monsterfights starting in an hour.
His favourite animal is the horse. His favourite meal? horse.
The guy is built different. 15 wins, 15 finishes.
Magny is a tough gatekeeper, so gonna be a good test to know how good he really is.

Anyone to improve WW, it’s grim. Actually I’m being unfair….every division above lightweight is grim
We are live!!!!
MMA judging is such a scam
Just like with crypto, people on the inside is making so much money.
Gonna be one of those nights again. I got lucky on this one luckily (Demoupolus).

What a shitty last year for JP Buys. Loses his 3 UFC in a row, probably gonna get cut now.
And his wife, Cheyene Vlismas (ex wife now), cheats on him on that stud that is Roman Dolidze (She went up 5 weight divisions).
Pain.

If ever a group of judges were bound to be corrupt, it would be the street fighting competition run by a casino company out of Las Vegas.MMA judging is such a scam

Main card starts in 10 minutes.
Umar Nurmagomedov is so good.
Some really nice kicks and the grappling is on point.
Imagine Khabib had the kicking range that Umar does. Fortunately for everyone in the bantam division Umar doesn't have the killer ground game his cousin has.

Nice modfied RNC. He grabs his own elbow to power the choke.
