This card looks solid. A pretty good main event I want to see, co-main has the potential to be a brawl, Dodson/Moraes is a fun match up, and there are a bunch of well known fighters scattered throughout the card.

 

[jw2]

This card is stacked!

Oh wait, it's not 2010 anymore.

 

[darko]

Underrated card.

 

[m9]

Really good card. Main event should be great.

This is how I feel about this card. This card feels old lol

 

[Kitten Mittons]

4 guys on the main card need to retire. I almost feel bad watching them fight.

Correction: 3 of them I feel bad for watching. 1 I just don't want to watch because he sucks lol.

 

[td_ice]

I've got Sage up 20-18

 

[td_ice]

Northcutt easily, 30-27

 

[MD thaivuN]

Hope Moraes wins this fight. Dodson tends to win very tedious fights.

Edit: Marlon's counters is on point here

Dodson is such a bad round winner. Tapping after the fight is not a good look for judges.

Underwhelming fight


Who is the second commentator? Liking him

Underwhelming fight


Who is the second commentator? Liking him

Kinda expected when Dodson is fighting. Dodson loves that low pace kickboxing, but at bantamweight, his KO rate is just diminished.

Commentator is Paul Felder. He's been really good since he got the gig on Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender series

 

[Avs_19]

Sage looked better but it's hard to say how much better because of the level of competition.

I was expecting more from Moraes/Dodson. Close fight but I had it for Moraes.

 

[td_ice]

Wow, that fight lasted about 20 shots longer than it should have. Shame on that ref.

 

[Avs_19]

Great performance by Guida. Ref could've stopped it well before he actually did.

 

[MD thaivuN]

is the ref the same "Mike King" that lost to Cathal Pendred and then got popped for PEDs? lol

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

That was a bit unexpected from Guida.

 

[Sheppy]

Guida is so likeable.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Bisping getting right back into the cage hey? That dudes crazy.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Aldo getting the rematch against Holloway? Interesting. Wonder how Aldo's going to look this time around.

Thanks. I don't watch that. I like his commentary, wish he'd be a tad bit more exciting, but not a big issue. Prefer him over Stann already.

 

[Avs_19]

Agree about Felder, he's really good. Seems like the UFC agrees since they moved him from Dana's show to TV events pretty quickly.

 

[MD thaivuN]

Assuncao is such a savvy vet. Lopez looks less and less effective as the minutes goes by. He's getting dismantled by Assuncao

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Those are some nasty leg kicks.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Kinda hoping for a leg kick finish, those are sweet.
