Please don't let Pantoja hold Kai Asakura down for the whole fight.

It’s Pearl Harbor day. Pantoja needs to win by any means necessary

I mute it every time. He's a parody of an announcer at this point. It's comically sad.

Pantoja fighting mean. What's up with his shitty shorts though? It looks like he's wearing a saggy diaper.

And I guess the UFC has moved away from the gold gloves now.

he handled shavkat well. Still lost but I thought he’d get finished


Garry’s elite speed and athleticism made Shavkat look human. Belal should feel good about his chances after tonight but he doesn’t posses the same problems Garry presents. He’s definitely stronger/more physical but not a big submission threat; he could find himself regretting getting in grappling exchanges with Shavkat.

It was actually more competitive than I expected.

No thanks. Asakura was gifted that fight in the first place.

The Japanese guy has crazy speed and is a scary striker, but needs to really hone a ground game and defensive skills to truly compete at the highest levels in the UFC.

You’d rather watch him ragdoll and smoke Royvall again?

He’s got nothing more to prove against Royval or Moreno. Dude is in a different level.

The flyweight division definitely has a problem. I don't think Asakura deserves another shot though. May have to give Kai Kara-France a shot.

Some are calling for Mighty Mouse to come back. I think he's happy with retirement, but we'll see. If he were to come back and win a UFC belt again, that would be a pretty incredible story.

I guess Albazi is up too. But outside of Kara-France and Albazi, Pantoja's cleared that division out. Wonder what the chances of a superfight between Pantoja and Topura at bantamweight or catchweight would be. Topura has a similar issue of not many attractive divisional matchups on the horizon.
