Thug Rose! Pretty amazing and humble.
She trains pretty close to me. Cool to see her bring the title back here. |

Huge upset. Happy for her. She seems like a humble girl. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

TJ would have been finished with 2 more seconds in round 1 and comes back. Crazy. |

Happy for TJ. I am 0-2. To go 0-3 I need Bisping to win. haha _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

Bisping's elbows were nasty. I thought he had it.
GSP was the better boxer. Wasn't expecting that. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better” |

Really good card, the 3 title fights were exciting, great finishes to all 3.
All 3 could probably end up with a rematch, though there are other matchups (GSP v Whittaker, TJ vs Mighty Mouse) that could happen first.
Looking forward to UFC 218 now, Holloway is probably my favourite fighter to watch, but I do like Edgar as well. _________________ Lakers, Chargers, Dodgers, Arsenal FC.

Wow. Did I severely underestimate Rose Namajunas. And I’m so glad too because I thought she was in for a beatdown. I’ve been following her career the past year and half and thought she had the goods to be champ one day but never dreamed she had the standup game to do what she did last night. I am so happy for her. As y’all could see, she’s a class act. And watching Joanna trying to get into the new champ’s head all week made me really glad I was wrong. I didn’t like those tactics at all. That boogieman mess she was talking at the weigh in was ridiculous. She knew Rose wasn’t intimidated. Team Rose did some great work.
GSP shocked me too. Have to give it up. It looks like he’s added some Wonderboy to his arsenal. That first round was something else for him. Wasn’t expecting anything like that from him. But, like some others, I thought he was toast after Round 2 and he found a way to come back like a champ. Now it’s onto a money fight because as Weidman said, there’s no way George fights any other middleweight.
TJ Dillashaw has to be feeling pretty good about himself right now. He stayed with it after being severely rocked, saved by the bell and came back the following round, landed that first head kick and then the bomb that humbled Garbrandt. If he goes down to face Mighty, I expect a Cruz/Garbrandt rematch as an elimination fight with the winner getting the title shot. Division just got heated.
Great card that delivered. _________________ We back. |

GSP said it’s in his contract that he must do one defense of the belt at middleweight. If that’s true he’s either gotta fight Whittaker or Woodley next. I think he’ll opt for Woodley. Whittaker is too rangey and fighting Tyron would be like looking in the mirror for GSP. Curious to see what happens!
I think you’ve got it absolutely right with TJ fighting MM, and Cruz/Garbrandt fighting for #1 contender |

GSP mixed his striking and grappling very well. On his feet, he looked like he was using some of that Wonderboy formula to keep Bisping out of range.
Not like he needs it but Freddie Roach's waiting list just got longer. _________________ We back. |

You know how Canelo waited for GGG to age before signing off on the long overdue superfight? Same with Joshua's against Wilder? I get the feeling the UFC is waiting out Cyborg too. _________________ We back. |
