A forgettable opener at best, Mark Madsen is smart as heck but also extremely monodimensional.

Dern nicked it with that ultra-dominant (in grappling) second round.

Durinho brought Khamzat to the limit and exposed some weaknesses, with Borz going all-out and winning it. What a slugfest.

Terrible match-up for Zombie, as expected. The only one that has sense now at featherweights, it's the third between Volkanovski and Holloway.

Love seeing Aleksei Oleinik pick up his 60th win.

Thought Yan barely nicked it, but the fight was not fun enough for me to worry about it.

Khamzat and Burns was amazing. Fights like that show the casual fans, as now people are banging on about Khamzat being exposed. If anyone believed he was going to have a career of squash matches without ever getting hit then I suppose he was exposed. To beat Burns in one of the biggest step ups in recent memory is very impressive. I think he'll pick up a belt in the future.

Yes for sure. He fought very recklessly and still ground out a win. Reckon he’ll get a rollicking from his coach after that.
At the higher levels you can’t piss about. This experience will only make him better which is a scary thought.

Couple of fights then title fight id say.

I see some people were actually disappointed in Khamzat winning because he got "exposed" against a top contender like Burns... I indeed saw that as one of the best step-ups in recent times, with a monstrous second wind by Khamzat.

Another comfortable, tactical win by Muhammad. Not spectacular but impressive.

Props to Caio Borralho too.

Put him in with Covington next. Two guys with unreal stamina. If he gets past Covington then title shot against Usman.
