    Spirited performance from Artem. Did better than most were expecting and even won a round.

    Its free to use 98% of songs for a walkout. Ufc just has to change it for replays of the fight on fightpass/dvd's(do they still do them?).

    I hate that, I love watching some of the walkouts, does my nut in when it's just a generic song on fight pass.

    Do they? I mind on a Looking for a fight or an Embedded The Game met Nate and Dana and was saying how he got paid for McGregor to walk out to his song then he found out he was fighting a guy from California and couldn't stop it

    I reckon he will get Evan Evan Durham or Gilbert melendez if the ufc decide to give him another chance.

    I had a look at the top 15 after watching his win this morning, he would get absolutely battered off every one of them.

    Particularly anyone with a take down and anything on the ground.

    Aye absolutely agree mate won't be putting any money on him in Glasgow.

    I can't believe how flawed he is considering he is 21 and 6. If lauzon had a half a gas tank he would have been grapplefucked for 3 rounds.

    Quite disappointed if Ray headlines the Glasgow card. Co main at best hopefully

    I think yous are being a bit harsh on Ray. Lauzon is a wizard on the ground and has done way worse to different fighters. Ray also defended the takedowns well it was just when he threw kicks (even after his corner said to stop) lauzon got his timing and was able to easily take him to the ground.

    Those elbows Lauzon were smashing down on Ray were brutal. Ray sometimes relies to much on boxing when he looks most dangerous when he mixes the boxing with the high kicks he has. I hope Lauzon don't retire if he could only work on his gas tank he would win a lot more fights than he has.

    If lauzon had a gas tank ray would have been taken down at will. The way ray fights is straight up boxing with some kicks mixed in there. If you watch the fight back look at the way ray stands up.. He leaves himself open to double and even single legs pretty much the entire fight. The only reason lauzon couldn't capitalise on this was because he didn't have the energy required to do it.

    Looking at the rankings they will struggle to get him a big enough name to headline with tbh. A fun fight maybe? marc diakiese and him in co-main would be good!
