Brock is Canadian now? I know he lives up north, but still.

They need to try and keep these shows going at a brisker pace like the old days. The wait between fights really made this show drag. They easily could've shaved 20 minutes of dead time and probably have crammed in a couple of the exciting Fight Pass fights.

I wonder if they have any concern about inserting Fight Pass stuff since they charge for it. I've only seen a few cards the last couple years I wouldn't really know.

I ended up going to a bar with friends so I wasn't in here.


So fucking happy Jose beat Frankie, dominated Frankie at that. Dude really is a champion, will ain't broke even after the loss to Conor.

The Anderson/DC fight was pretty bad. I thought for sure DC was going to finish him in 1.

Brock beat Hunt exactly how I thought he would, shame he has to go back to the circus now cause he's still got it.

Nunes fucking crushed Tate, was really surprised but also happy for her. Awesome lady.

It feels that way because most of the fights went the distance, and couple of them were kind of boring.

Said it before but DC did the best thing he could have done. Finishing Anderson in one round just makes him look like an asshole and hurts Anderson. Blame Dana and Jon Jones for the fight, not DC.

This is just about the dumbest excuse I have ever heard for a fighter.

Wasn't blaming DC, I just thought the fight wasn't great.

Man, Brock is not talking like a guy who's done. He sounds like he wants to quit the fake shit and go back to this full time.

DC looks up to him. Completely fucking him up accomplishes nothing except satisfying the shithead meathead group of fans who just want to see people bleed.

Again it is the dumbest excuse for a fighter ever. DC has his own legacy to worry about. If he could have put Anderson away early he would have. He didn't want to open himself up to being knocked out by a 41 year old fighter who is past his prime. He fought smart, but looked like garbage doing so. You can continue to make excuses for him if you want, but they are just that excuses.
 
Maybe it was solely because of ring rust and he'll be better in the future, but nothing Brock did tonight gives me any confidence in him against the top 5 of the division. I'd enjoy watching him beat up the bottom tier though.

I'm saying it was a straight up WWE-level work. Anderson never actually posed any real threat to him, call it playing it safe or scared or whatever, but he intentionally held back. He got the W, Anderson didn't get hurt, everyone wins. The only people hating on DC hate on him no matter fucking what he does.

Did you not hear all the fans booing him? Who does this supposed "work" satisfy? This is how he fights.
