I’ll take Whitaker, Pettis and Overroid.
I woulda taken Schevchenko but uh, yikes, who missed weight?
I don’t want to pick the muslim guy named after two demons, so I’ll just skip that one.
That sounds very suspect to me.
Nunes didn’t miss weight, she made herself sick by cutting too much weight. What they do is cut water weight, severely dehydrate themselves
This has become a MAJOR problem, lots of fights cancelled. And it’s become worse since they banned IV rehydration (I don’t know how enforceable that is but they did).
I think they should have weighins 2 days before, the day before, and the day of, and you have to make weight each time. That would make extreme de-hydration impossible and force all fighters to fight at their actual weight and would mean a whole lot of fighters moving up a class, which is fine cause most of the bigger fighters in their new class would be moving up too. You could tweak the classes to even them out if necessary.
And Font.
And Overeem
Browne tapped out in round 2. Why did try to grapple with this guy? Maybe cause he didn’t want to get rocked (both were rocked in round 1).
He should probably hang it up.
Out of all of the guys to try and grapple with, Olek was a bad choice.
Pettis looked good in his return to 155, looked strong, improved his wrestling. Good fight with Miller. Pettis by UD.
Font looked good too, anther finish for him.
Curtis Blaydes getting his nails clipped before the fight.
How the heck did Overeem win his fight, now we have Mioic Vs Overeem part 2.
His chin almost failed him in the end.
I’d to see Cain V get back in the mix, I assume he’s still hurt.
Rounds 4 and 5 do it for Whitaker!
Thank you Bisping for the usual reminder on why most people can’t stand you!
I laughed, it’s an act like Chael Sonnen.
Pro-wrestling stuff, since these fights are real, I don’t mind it that much.
Maybe there’s genuine mean spiritedness there with Bisping, still funny.
Chael is a very nice guy who’s 100% faking it.

SHOCKED!
Course I do play it safe by trying to avoid making picks on fights that I can’t recognize anyone in, which is a lot of them.
I don’t mind it so much but I feel it’s too forced just like Chael. Unfortunately, fighters have been conditioned to put on the WWE antics.
