Pereira gets the referee stoppage in the 2nd after dropping Prochazka with a right hand left hook combo, then lands multiple elbows on Prochazka as he was trying to tie up. Pereira then began to mount him and the ref jumped in to stop it. Some might think it was a bit premature but Prochazka did not contest the stoppage.

Prochazka won the first round pressing and backing Pereira up and the second was quite even before the stoppage with Prochazka doing pretty much what he did in the first backing Pereira up.

I said Prochazka's chin was a bit iffy and the first solid shot Pereira landed basically led to the end of the fight.

Pereira is so methodical. He can definitely be outworked.
It might have been a quick stoppage but I doubt that letting it go longer changes the result.

Aspinall was sensational, he was in there against an absolute monster, to take him out like that was so impressive.

UFC is kicking boxings arse right now. What a sport it is, what a package, a fight fans dream. Up until around 2014 i refused to entertain MMA, all my life i was a boxing purist, no way was i going to watch two guys rolling around on the floor with their nuts in each others faces. Thank fcuk McGregor burst onto the MMA scene and made so many headlines it somehow got my attention onto MMA, and I've never looked back since. The UFC is the sport that just keeps on giving. I cannot wait for UFC 296, Garry vs Luque, Pimblett vs Ferguson, Covington vs Edwards, what a card. Between now and Christmas there is hardly a boxing fight that really interests me, if i had to name one it would be the Taylor vs Cameron rematch, but i dont see it going much different to the first fight so i'm not exactly buzzing for it. Quite sad really. Boxing is a mess right now.

The main difference between the UFC and Boxing, other than corruption and too many damn belts and divisions in boxing, is the UFC gives us the fights we want to see because there is no promoter to prevent the matchups.

I'm looking forward to ball vs dogboe, but other that ufc is killing it

2 awesome fights I guess Pereira is a slight favorite. I would call them 50/50 fights on paper at least, let's see what happens. One thing I've learned specifically from following fight sports is that consensus and reality are two different things.

Prochazka has an iffy chin. If Pereira lands clean first he will knock him out imo. Having said that it only applies if the arrogant version of Pereira in the second Adesanya fight doesn't show up again, otherwise Prochazka will win.

Good call on Alex. And Kilburn on Aspinall.
On boxing vs UFC. You heard Stevenson's title defense last night was "boring"? We're used to sitting through those fights for the good ones, but what about the casuals? For them it must be like going to a casino only to swiftly lose all your money. If you did that, which I have, you'd say well that wasn't fun at all.

Ribas with a furious comeback for the win, that spinning kick at the end was a thing of beauty,

Orolbai was way too much exposed against Medic but displayed impressive grappling skills in the debut.

[JxhDel.]

Talbott and Hooper looking two Disney Channel brothers but they can wrestle you until you become flat as a a cartoon

[JxhDel.]

Another tough sub by Allen, ready for the big boys.

Morales' hype is still on.

[ALI]

Craig is poor, a one trick pony. He should think carefully about his future as i can see him getting seriously hurt, repeatedly. He is sure to slide down the cards too as nobody wants to watch a guy pulling gaurd all night long.

[The Asleep Lamps]

Fight day!

[JxhDel.]

Good sub wins by Sztoltfus and Sean Brady.

Gastelum looking deflated as a welterweight.

[JxhDel.]

Deiveison so relaxed as a bantam, schooled Rob Font with little stress.

[JxhDel.]

Jeez, poor Bobby taking another punishing short-time bout, horrible stoppage also

[JxhDel.]

Bravo, Tsarukyan, looking flashy tonight

[JxhDel.]

Tim Elliott doing his tricks and actually succeeding is a sight to see

[JxhDel.]

The Boogeyman looks under its bed to find out if Khalil Rountree Jr is down there, what a muay thai beast

Two crazy stoppages in the main card tonight

[JxhDel.]

Emmett served a perfect overhand on Mitchell, scary KO

Despite looking in his best shape ever, Paddy managed to gass out in the third and get his chin exposed to a slow Ferguson... fought smart, not a PPV-caliber bout but whatever

[Kilburn]

Miserable night for Thompson.

Rakhmonov keeps that impressive record going. He’s not pretty to watch but gets it done.

[JxhDel.]

Safe, dominant win by Pantoja.

Shavkhat is here to make it

[JxhDel.]

Boy, did Colby look off tonight... Leon fought himself and even afforded to try something unusual and succeeded.

Belan and Shavkat deserved this way more.

[Tinnie]

The decline of Ferguson has probably been the hardest of any fighter to watch. Had no problem with him training with Goggins, but he just got in the way in his corner and shouldnt have been there.

Pimblette is a horrible little gobshite. If Tony does retire its a shame he finished with that little turd.

[Baby Face Finster]

Totally missed this card but read that Colby was his usual douchebag self and brought up Edwards' dead father. What a POS. He has had 3 shots at the UFC title and failed badly in each one. Please don't reward him anymore.

The lesson to be learned from Tony, don't take every fight, and don't make weight for fights that get canceled, and don't kill yourself in every training. If he was half as calculated as he is tough....he would have remained unbeatable for a bit longer.

[JxhDel.]

The Hulk Brunno Ferreira smashed Phil Hawes in under round, didn't expect it like that

[JxhDel.]

Bautista vs. Simon was fun and fast-paced, the former throwing punches in bunches to ensure a spot in the top 15

Jim Miller's dream of making it also to UFC 300 is now reality
