For those who haven't seen it.

I read that Halloway vs Aldo 2 might be a done deal but I haven't seen it confirmed by the UFC yet.

Pretty good little free card on tonight on FS1.

Brown/Sanchez should be fun.

Matt brown , what a legend, just a gritty fighter who likes to get stuck in

Hopefully he retires on a high note πŸ‘Œ

He's been one of my favorites since TUF.

Pretty unfortunate for Dodson. No doubt that kick to the balls really set him back n that bout.

I'm very surprised there's no medical suspension after the GSP fight. Fair play to Bisping though to step up so soon after a tough fight with GSP. Big test for Gastelum though Bisping won't get tired and he isn't old man Vitor, I hope he kicks Kelvins ass.

As much as I'm a fan of Matt Brown, he may as well go out on a high note and retire after that performance. Diego should probably hang em up too.

I feel really bad for Pettis. He really took a dive from the top fast. During his prime, and just after his Melendez win, I thought we were witnessing greatness, and a future top P4P all time guy. :maybe:

I saw last night that Michael Bisping has accepted a fight on short notice at the end of the month. So even having already fought GSP this month in the biggest fight in the sport in the month of November, and one of the biggest MMA fights this year...he's gonna fight again before the month is even over!

Pretty incredible

He's always been a real fighter and never scared to take risks or fight top comp.

Diego is often in 'wars' which are mostly him storming forward, looking mean and taking shots while landing little of his own strikes, he can't be long off feeling effects from that later in life I feel he isn't already.

I think Pettis just got figured out, his boxing defence is pretty weak and if you crowd him so he can't kick he isn't anywhere near as dangerous as if he's in his preferred range. He just hasn't evolved along with others in his division which is a shame for such a highly skilled guy.

Im surprised to see Sanchez still fighting myself. After his fight with Melendez i was seriously asking myself if we were going to see this guy a vegetable in a few years time, he was old in fighting terms back then. No doubt he is an incredibly entertaining fighter who shows up every time, but cant think of another fighter thats taken more shots to the head with his take a punch to land a punch mentality.

His face looked pretty messed up! I’m surprised by this. The guys tough as old boots. I was impressed with how much damage he did to George off his back but Roach has schooled GSP well. He’s much better on his feet now.

I take it they don't have a rule like boxing where if you get knocked out you can't fight for so many days then?

He didn't get knocked out he got choked out so that's looked at differently. I agree he should've been given a medical suspension and probably would've been I for the fight was in Nevada but my understanding is that a medical suspension from a state commission is only valid in that state though most states in America choose to uphold it. China might not make him or the UFC comply with an American ban. The New York State commission is still very new to MMA which could be why they haven the put in medical suspensions after tough fights yet.

He didn't get knocked out, they do medicals for all the fighters and they get suspensions, I'm surprised he got less than 30 days. I wonder if this is plan to retire this year.
