    Good card, good judging as well on the DJ fight, I think even he thought he lost. TJ is a beast in the prime of his life he has potential to be one of the best of all time. I'd love tp see Cody v Lineker and TJ v Cejudo if Cejudo moves up.

    On the same night also that should be organised for December or something.

    Although Dillishaw has beat Cody twice they were actually pretty even fights until Cody was caught and rocked in both of them. Last night I thought Cody looked good, he was smart and patient and outstriking TJ but when he caught him with that one he thought he damaged him instead of remaining calm and composed he tried to finish the fight, once he was caught himself he never recovered. If he hadn't have got over excited and opened up and exposed himself he could probably have continued to have the upper hand and could have picked TJ off again.

    Having these fights would allow Cody to beat Cruz and become the #1 contender again as i'd like to see them fight again, compared to most of the pantomime nonsense these two actually do seem to really hate each other and there is a good edge to the fights.

    Cejudo winning at least breathes a bit of life into the division, DJ was out of opponents if he’d won.

    Great card last night. Caught the end of the Brett Johns fight on prelims, got it recorded so will watch back as heard it was a war. Holland done well to survive v Santos. Fell asleep during the female fight. Very impressive by Moicano v Swanson.

    DJ v Cejudo was very tight. I'm honestly not sure who won. I know Cejudo said he wanted to go to 135 but surely they need a rematch.

    Not a fan of Garbrandt at all so very pleasing result.

    The fact Till fights at 170 is just ridiculous. Woodley is too big for 170 and Till dwarfed him.

    He looks like a natural light heavyweight never mind a middleweight. The video of him attempting to get to 170 for the Wonderboy fight should be enough to stop him fighting at that weight ever again.

    MVP vs Daley is a great fight a lot of beef between those two.

    Looks good!

    Best way to do it for me, good for the contenders to see the finality of the table rather than having to plead for title shots and what not. Boxing in on the Grand Prix type tournaments as well.

    I registered to Eleven Sports to be notified about whats happening and got an email today. Says it's £49.99 annualy or £5.99 per month for 'All access' and it's a early access price until the 31st of August. They only mention La Liga, Serie A, Dutch, Swedish and Chinese Leagues and PGA Championship but it was said on here they were getting the NBA in October and UFC in November or December or something. Pretty cheap less than £1 a week if you pay the £50 up front.

    I’ll be paying my 50 beans for Barca games and UFC alone.

    Less than a single night out.

    £55 for iptv is a better deal if you have an android box. Iptv has pretty much everything you can possibly watch.
