Till broke his collar bone.. Feel bad for him. At the same time I’m not too disappointed because there will be no denying Rob a rematch if he wins now. Don’t care how people think the fight will play out, he deserves the fight.

Holland took the fight on short notice. Good for him.

I saw that but wasn’t sure if he actually got the fight or just wanted it. One way to get back in Dana’s good books. Hopefully he has a much better performance.

Really doubt he gets tko’d unless it’s doctors stoppage because of his eye. Dudes still as tough as they come.

He won’t lose 43 either but probably 46.

I don't have many hopes for the Nate-Edwards fight actually coming to fruition. One dude is a flake, the other prone to all the bad luck in the world.

It's weird that Nate even took that fight, though. It's so much better for Edwards and the UFC than for him.

It is weird he took this fight. He recently even said who the **** is that guy about Leon when Leon said he wanted to fight. Didn’t think he’d be interested.


His tweet about the fight also didn’t sound like him at al either.

Khetag Pliev suffers severed finger during match, undergoes emergency surgery

The fight, which was part of an event put on by Cage Fury Fighting Championship and aired on UFC Fight Pass, was stopped when the referee noticed Pliev was missing his left ring finger.

For several minutes, those in the venue were searching for the stray digit. Event promoter Rob Haydak said officials looked all around the cage, and there was even an announcement over the PA system asking people to look for it inside 2300 Arena.

Haydak said it was ultimately discovered that the finger had come off and was lodged inside Pliev's glove all along.

Kinda weird to see that being legal but Alvarez getting DQ'd for those punches to back of head. Lowish impact and dude was turning his head. On the other hand DJ copped a savage knee while down.

I get the rules are the rules but could he not have been warned or lost a point instead? Impact huge.
