Not terrible but far from the "big announcement" for UFC 300. They shouldn't have overhyped the main to such a ridiculous degree if they couldn't get any of the fights done.

something needs to be done about these scorecards of late. A 47-48x2, and 49-46 split? I didn’t catch the fight but that scorecard is wildly fucked up.

Watched some of Renan's fights. PFL judging is weird. Saw a 10-8 round randomly thrown in for a unanimous. In UFC it wouldn't have been a 10-8.

Not necessarily a bad thing, but it's not UFC. The reffing is where I see real problems, and for that reason I won't support the product outside of superfights. I'll check out the Ngannou that's about it. Their refs need some remedial training or get guys with better reflexes. That fight where Renan tapped to Werdum with a full force triangle on his neck was inexcusable.

Ortega looked fucking great. Absolutely smoked Yair.
