I'll just silently know you're wrong. Nothing can be done about it now.

Not in a way that involved him not being the one delivering the beating again and so he can't still reasonably argue it.

Jon Jones is FAR from undefeated.

Any chance the Stephens win could be changed to a N/C? That would be some cosmic justice. Neurological damage for Emmett & derailment but no win & a loss of win bonus for Stephens.

Eff DC for being such a company man on downplaying that knee. Just because it didn't land flush doesn't mean you can legally throw it and it also served as part of a barrage that disallowed Emmett from potentially getting to his feet. You can't add an illegal strike into a combination as a set-up for your other strikes. I can't tap you with a head butt even if it's insignificant.

I'm reaching for reasons to N/C that fight, not going to lie.

Je-zuz, Alan Jouban. That was ridiculous. You sensed he wanted to win with elbows just to prove a point. I sincerely hope that was FOTN. The Barao fight and the Perry fight and the Stephens fight were all good but I think that was top.

I didn't see McMann/Reneau. But what a weird world when a 40 year old part-time fighter part-time school teacher is finishing an Olympic silver medalist in wrestling.

McMann is such a huge bust at this point. I actually thought she may be starting to turn it around before she lost her fight before this in such embarrassing fashion.
