Cowboy looked good through the 1st....Ferguson is already bleeding pretty good. Cowboy has to be careful not to walk into a Ferguson good night kick.

stopping the fight after the 2nd....Cowboy's eye is completely closed. Ferguson caught Cowboy will a killer late hit after the bell in the 2nd.....but they still give Ferguson the TKO.

HOLY F!!!!

Valetina's head kick sounded like Eye got hit by a bat. FUUUUUUUCCCKCK!

That's the most vicious WMMA knockout I've ever. Jesus...I feel a little ill watching aftermath.

JB I literally prayed for Jessica to get up. She was down for so long

Also props to the cringe king Henry Cejudo. Triple C earned that

My primary connects are all shut down for the most part. Sucks.

props to Santos for limping to the finish line. i thought Jones showed him too much respect tonight. Santos gave 110%, while Jones was in cruise control. if you look at Santos's history against other top tier fighters like Mousasi, and look at how Jones beats him, its pretty safe to say that Jones was too conservative. I wouldn't be surprised if both guys were hurt, which happens anyway.


Gamebred... wow, what can i say?


Rockhold bit off more than he can chew. should go back down to 185. he can't even beat a gatekeeper


the other fights were not surprising.


Melendez is still fighting?? he's probably like 90 in fighter years

Nah, that was a beautifully executed knee. If anything Askren had it coming.

Given their personalities and the trash talk in the lead up to the fight, lot of ill feeling there, highly doubt he was looking for a glove tap.

Askren definitely had it coming too.

Amanda Nunes was unreal again, easily the greatest woman in UFC history, her power is frightening.

Thought Jones was good too, shame to see Thiago hurt his knee, because that would've been close.

Having never seen rockhold prior to the bisping fight, this guy is all flash and no substance.

His standup is vastly overrated. I think his ground game is as advertised but he doesn’t have the skills to get the fight to the ground.

Can’t see him being top 5 in any division. Dude needs to retire

I thought Santos beat Jones, but I understand giving the champ the nod. Askren got absolutely obliterated, and I'm glad his smug ass got taken out in embarrasing fashion. Nunes is the GOAT of women in UFC; she's just a ferocious killer with that look in her eye that she truly enjoys fighting and proving herself again and again.

How do you have Santos beating Jones? He did less damage and had less time in control of the octagon

I had Santos winning rounds 1 and 5. I had Jones winning rounds 3 and 4. Round 2 was practically even imo but I gave it to Jones because the only clear advantage that round was Jones' octagon control. Santos was impressive on leg, a true warrior, but to get the title and beat Jones it has to be more clear than that. With a healthy knee who knows how that fight ends. Also, people aren't giving Jones any credit for weakening Santos' knee up early in rounds 1 and 2 with his teep kicks to the knee

100% agreed

Anyone feel like jones wanted to test himself in standup against santos?

I was begging for him to get the fight on the ground especially when Santos was hurt. Seemed like he did not wanna go for takedowns or clinch much

I thought Jones look tentative for most of the fight, and Santos landed harder shots throughout (despite working on a busted knee). I don't have a problem with the judges giving the close fight to Jones since he was the defending champ.

In terms of giving Jones credit for hurting Santos's knee, that seems like a dubious claim since Santos seemed to tear his knee on an awkward landing after throwing a kick. If anything, Santos damaged Jones's legs more than the other way around.

I'm sure Jones will rebound in his next fight. I'd like to see him fight Johnny Walker or move up to heavyweight to challenge Ngannou.

That was embarrassing to his fans too

I was excited to see Jones getting hit in the face and having to play defense against a one legged man...
