Glover did a great job of not panicking early when Smith looked like he was taking control of the fight. Picked his spot and kept it technical.
Posting my picks in a few fights.
Vettori
Sherman
Azure
Lins
Hernandez
Smith

Damn. Wide left bro.

Congrats my friendI bet on a parlay on rothwell + Glover, so im pretty pumped for that extra money
His coach's response: "Yup.....just breathe"
I think that's the Glover special nowadaysGlover did a great job of not panicking early when Smith looked like he was taking control of the fight. Picked his spot and kept it technical.
I thought Glover had a chance to win, but I didn't see him whipping Smith's ass like that. Yet another curveball in figuring out how good Smith is. Glover is currently #8 and Smith is #4, so I will be curious who Glover gets next. I guess that might depend on who gets the next title shot and Santos' status.
I was kind of falling asleep during OSP-Rothwell, so no comment there. Nothing against them, just a long day and I'm not used to watching these cards on week days
I was glad Dober won. Sorry, but you can't talk shit to Cowboy when you haven't done anything in the UFC and have me root for you. It's a good win for Dober, but he's still got some work to do in the fight IQ department. It was way to easy for Hernandez to take him him down when he was hurt.

Just saw a tweet with what I think was him giving his tooth to the official.
Give him props for sticking through it. But near the end of the second, Smith was super gassed and swinging random punches hoping to connect.
OSP certainly had a chance if he would have traded earlier but spent a ton of time running, and then gassing himself out. He was hurting Rothwell when he traded.
Dober reminds me of Gaethje a bit

Wasn't there talk that Jan was going to get the title shot before Reyes? I mean, you know my thoughts on Jones-Reyes, so I think he should get the immediate rematch, but I don't often get what I want. With Jan training out of Poland, though, who knows if he's even available. Shit, who knows if Jones is even willing to take a fight right now.This one is easy for me - if you are doing the Jones/Reyes rematch, then you do Glover v Blachowicz as a #1 contender fight. Santos can fight someone like Corey Anderson.
OSP/Rothwell wasn't a great fight. OSP looked to be in excellent shape though - makes me wonder what weight he actually is for his 205 fights as he did't look all that different.

If it does go to Jan, though, I would like to see Reyes-Santos and Glover get Volkan or maybe a rematch with Anderson.
