I don't feel so bad about having to work tonight since the Holloway vs Ortiz fight got scratched. Pulling for Stipe, but think DC will be able to grind out a 5 round decision. Hope the Black Beast will KO Nganou. I expect 2 tired MFers if it makes it out of the first round. Felder should wreck Perry.

I'm pulling for DC I'm just scared his chin has worn down some and his speed has fallen off. If he can fight like he did when he was at hw before I like his chances. I got Stipe by tko in the 2nd or 3rd.

He's actually heavier than Stipe. Wasn't a problem back in 2011 when he fought Bigfoot and Barnett but that was 7 year ago and before a roided up Jones clocked him upside the head.

rooting for DC but the side angle of him didnt look good. he has always had that big barrel chest but man he seemed really pudgy. He doesnt seem like a guy that would mail it in, hopefully he knows what is up.

black beast shoved ngannou into another galaxy at the weigh ins... not sure if francis will be able to make it back in time. lmao.

I'm pulling for DC big time (although I like Stipe as well), but damn he looks fat as shite. I worry how he will hold up through round 3.

Like politics, Ariel Helwani should not be in MMA.

ariel is the man. a throwback to old school journalism where the journalist wore a nice suit and asked the tough questions and instigated the next fights. ariel has built a modern empire of digital content, breaking news via twitter, and now is in the process of saving ESPN. a truly great jewish canadian american, for the mma fans, by the mma fans. 8 time mma reporter of the year, and a modern day howard cosell of mma.

No lol

He's not a throwback at all. Journalists never instigated fights - promoters did that. Ariel desperately wants to be the news, not report the news and that sours everything he does.
He also doesn't know anything about MMA except he can tell you which UFC number certain events took place. He's come out and said WWE is hs first love but he doesn't have the skills to break into that area so he just fell into MMA.

His breaking news is often wrong, like with Nicco recently.

And now he's out there saying Dana should be protecting Brian Ortega LOL. Dana's job is to run the UFC. As bas a reputation as Dana has, he's let things go with Ariel, yet every chance Ariel has, he tries to make Dana look bad. Ariel is a loathesome person.

Ariel is a disgusting weasel that cried like a baby when Dana took his access away. His new show on ESPN has received terrible reviews and low ratings while Luke Thomas is doing great with the MMA Hour.

John Morgan is 10x better than Ariel. If the dude would drop 50lbs so his chins didn't swing around while talking, people would see that.

It will be a great and glorious day when everyone wakes up and realizes how bad of a person Helwani is, and banishes him from MMA forever.

Considering Adelaide Byrd was judging last night, and that she may still be in town, I'm holding back from saying who I thought won this fight.

I like the old school logo on Millender's shirt.
