Can someone send me that link to the MMA stream service...every time I think I'll remember the name of it I forget the name that I'm always 95% sure of and it never shows up in the search. The $5 subscription one. Thanks.

Yo, if I couldn't jump up on the cage 2 times in a row, I definitely wouldn't claw my way up there and try to do a backflip. That dude don't give a fuck. Gaethje needs to work on his cardio, but maybe he'll be fun to watch over the next couple of years.

Was pretty impressed with Gaethje tbh cause Johnson isn't just some scrub, he's quick and hits hard and Gaethje managed to eat all his best shots and put em away. Dude has one hell of a chin and is a fun striker to watch. I don't think his cardio is *that* bad either, he was putting out a lot of volume and got hit hard and rocked by Johnson a couple times, that alone will make you feel vastly more tired than you already are. If anything he just needs to work on his head movement a little bit and have more patience picking his shots, cause fighters with his fighting style eventually go the way of Diego Sanchez, Chris Leben etc. Would love to see him go against top guys like Ferguson, Barboza, Diaz, Alvarez even McGregor. Do not want to see him fight Khabib.

Even though I hate pure wrestlers cause they are pretty boring to watch, really happy for Jesse Taylor. Seems like a good guy, has obviously matured a lot and he really was the ultimate redemption story. Maybe now that's he in UFC and got that fat paycheck he can train full time and add some striking in his arsenal. Considering his age and how long he's been fighting, probably not, but would still be good to see in combination with his wrestling.

Didn't really pay attention to the other fights to much honestly. Except Krause and Toothless. Poor Toothless :(

Sounds like a bad weight cut. Oh well wasn't super interested in women's 135 title fight but still woulda been fun to watch I guess. More interested in Romero / Whitaker.

edit: btw this international fight week this year sucks lol

I lose all bets at the bookies. You can't change fighters at the last minute.

Well, I much prefer to lose that fight than the Whitaker vs Romero fight.

Edit: Well according to Dana, Nunes was cleared to fight by the doctors but said she didn't feel good. So she pulled herself.
