    After seeing Chimaev do that to Holland if of rather of seen him and Nate. Think Nate is more savvy, would of at least avoided that outcome happening so quickly.

    No idea what was going on with the weight cut or lack of one, but Khamzat more than made up for it with that. Insane grappling. I have never seen anyone put on a pace married with technique and strength like that. Holland is a black belt. The way he flowed with the transitions was * tier.

    Missing weight by 7.5lbs is absolutely disgraceful.

    Good to see the fans give the minutes silence the respect it deserves.

    Really like O’Malley but Yan won that, it was close but that was a lot of takedowns by Yan.

    That Bantamweight division is so good, wouldn’t put it past TJ to win. Could easily do a grand prix event with the top 8.

    Yan definitely won but glad O’Malley got it, great fight and sets up great fights. Doesn’t hurt Yan at all.

    Big task for Charles here, hope he wins but I can't see anything other than Islam getting the win. Feels inevitable
