Big McGregor fan. UFC needed this too. Couldn't have Rousy and McGregor lose in back-to-back PPVs.

Rockhold dominated Weidman too. Shocked at that pure domination.

Flash KO. Pretty shocked tbh. I would like to see those two go at it again but at 155. I also want to see McGregor/Cerrone simply because Cerrone will talk as much as **** and the size difference between the two is pretty big. It'd be interesting to see Conor fight someone who's 3 inches taller.

As for Weidman-Rockhold, Weidman dug his own grave with that wheel kick. Completely even fight until that then it went all Silva/Sonnen II from there on out.

Other than the 1st rd, I'm still not that impressed with Romero.

Fighters at 155 that will give Conor fits:
-RDJ
-Cerrone
-Pettis
-Nurmagedov
-Diaz

lol no, just no. I think Conor beats everyone on this list but RDA. I'd love to see him face Cerrone though, I think it'd be a hell of a show. I don't think Cerrone gets by RDA though.

If Edgar can get him down, I think he can ground and pound him out. I'd like to see McGregor defend once at 145 then go to 155.

Conor card just took a huge hit. I know it'll be a scrap, but Diaz probably doesn't stand a chance.

I would venture to say that no one brings more money, right now, than Conor McGregor. He's the biggest attraction right now.

Bisping won more rounds Silva did more damage. Silva could have easily won the fight if he didn't choose to goof around. He didn't even try until the end of the 3rd round.

This.

Silva did more damage, but Bisping won more rounds. Silva's problem is he's too infatuated with dancing around and trying to be Ali-like, instead of simply having that killer mentality and just going after guys. The whole first two rounds were simply Silva dancing around and backing away from Bisping. As much as I can't stand Bisping, Silva deserved to lose that fight.

It seemed like Silva's whole strategy was to wait to the final 2-minutes of the round and then push it. Sorry... but that's not going to cut it in the UFC anymore; especially not at 40. Also, Silva's no longer as fast as Silva thinks he is. Bisping tagged him (forget which round it was, 2nd maybe?) and Silva crumbled and had that "Oh sh!t" look on his face.

Bisping/Silva was a really fun fight to watch. Bisping might be at his best right now, and Anderson is declining. Fun that they could kind of meet at the perfect time to make a good fight. Rockhold destroys Bisping again if he gets a title shot though.

No way is Bisping at his best. He's aging and lost atleast 50% of his vision in one eye. He beat CB Dalloway and Leiites who are both 12-15 type guys in that class then should have lost to a old Silva if Silva gave a damn. Giving Bisping a title shot is a joke.

I never thought Bisping was that good anyways. I think he is as good now as he's ever been though. Agree he doesn't deserve a title shot, but I would not be surprised at all if it happens. I could also seem him fighting Nick Diaz which would be a good fight he could win.

Time to do a wellness check on Dana because he has to be suicidal right now.

UFC and Vegas had a horrible night. I made a lot of money on the Tate win but didn't have the balls to bet on Diaz.

The Rousey/Holm rematch has been seriously devalued and his best draw loses on the same night.

One of those happening is a blow, both happening back to back is catastrophic.
