    Knew the * would do that.

    * will be marking the takedowns as significant even though Max got straight back up.

    So buzzing for this. If this was still Gilbert Burns I’d be heading to bed.

    Hope Masvidal does it but expecting a mauling from Usman here.

    Masvidal destroying him on the feet.

    Expect Usman to turn this into a grappling match.

    1-0 Masvidal.

    Surely no way Masvidal can keep that pace up. Looked tired towards the end of the round already.

    Comfortable for Usman.

    Masvidal should just stick to exciting fights for the ‘BMF belt’.

    In 20 years time, nobody will say remember that amazing Usman fight (or Khabib) the best at what they do, but give me a Diaz or Jorge fight anytime.

    Main event went the way probably most people expected. Even with a full camp for Masvidal I think Usman would still beat him. The wrestling is obviously a skill but it doesn't make for good entertainment to most of us anyway I would say.
