    Just watched it there, surprised Johnny Walker got beat, maybe a wee bit too relaxed but he hung on well when he looked * never went down and tried to stay in it even though he was all over the place.

    Thompson looked really good again, more attacking than usual and was clearly outlcassing Luque, felt quite bad for Luque the amount of hits he took, think the Ref could even have just stopped that even though he was standing up the whole time, epsecially like the last 2 minutes of the fight he was just being hit all the time and had clearly lost the fight by then.

    Till looked good also, not much action in that fight but he kept himself out the way and I thought won all 3 rounds although not a lot in the 1st and 3rd.

    * for Masvidal for that to be stopped, was winning all 3 rounds and looking really good robbed on the chance of a knockout or to win all 5 rounds which would have been big for him. Cut was bad but didnt seem to be affecting Diaz that much and wasnt bleeding too bad, theres been loads of fights where * could barely see with blood pishing out constantly.

    All the fights I thought were good to watch except Derek Lewis.

    Wonderboy put on a striking clinic, Till fought the smartest he’s fought in the UFC and deserved his victory at his natural weight class and Masvidal tooled up Diaz for 3 full rounds.

    No one will admit it but the doctor saved him from another 10 minutes max of getting his * kicked on, Diaz legendary stamina or not.

    The reality is if Diaz didn’t have the McGregor win on his record, he would rightly be viewed as a bit of a gatekeeper. Durable with good BJJ, but little else, and imo not someone who should cause the top guys too many problems.

    Diaz steamrolled, was getting lit up. Don't think I need to see a rematch, Diaz should complete the trilogy and hang it up.

    Till impressive, looked strong. Love him to do Anfield next. I think him and Stylebender is a class fight down the line.
