Phenomenal performance by Charles. Really depressing result for Dariush, should have gotten the title shot instead he took a risk and it DID NOT pay off.

Despite that lack of bigger names this card has been successful and entertaining.

After sitting through 25 minutes of belal vs burns a month ago instead of this scheduled fight I will refrain. From commenting.

I mean if he got rocked that badly through a guard, I can see Islam lighting him up on the feet as Darius sure as heck not outwrestles Islam

Oh yeah, if Dariush brought this type performance vs Islam then Islam absolutely abuses him. I don't want Dariush to win a title, I just want him to get the shot, he was the most deserving of one for a little bit there in my opinion.

He was most deserving but he also hadn't beaten a top contender yet so I get it. He should have been in there instead of Volk though.

Congrats on a great career.
Can we end this thing where whoever is fighting is the greatest ever in some way? If you want to call her the greatest female fighter then fine, but she wasn't even the greatest fighter involved in her interview. Enough.
Just an awful performance from Aldana.
Oh, it's done

When did Peña become so f***ing insufferable? She seems like she’s putting on a complete gimmick because there’s no way she can be as delusional as she is. Right?

Dana was actually great at his post-fight presser. Throwback to when he said good things about his fighters and actually cared about the sport.
Yeah Amanda’s resume is pretty f***ing insane now that I give it another look over. Starching pretty much every big name in womens MMA. Literally nothing else for her to do in the sport.
I’ve never seen somebody who got so thoroughly beaten down over 5 rounds talk so much shit

I'm totally good with what Pena is doing, having any sort of personality at the top of the female divisions is a huge bonus vs what we usually get. And yes she's delusional, she's always been a bit of a Diaz type in that regard.
Not saying she's anti-lesbian or whatever too but I just think her personality is wired more like Miesha Tate where they want to have a certain look vs what Nunes/Pennington/etc do. Main difference is that Tate is actually a nice person while Pena isn't

Main event was really bad. I wonder if Almeda was hurt or was still suffering from the weight cut which was apparently pretty rough. Luke Thomas said something like "I don't want to say it was a waste of everyone's time, but..." Nunes looked like she was playing on easy mode. Happy for her that she's retiring before she declines, hopefully she doesn't go back and forth like most people do when they retire.
Sick performance by Olivera like usual. I feel like he still doesn't get enough love.
