Still plenty of life in Frankie Edgar

A little slap at the weigh in:
Gets you a real slap in the fight
Pereira look bloody good in that fight. Even ignoring the clowning the striking was so accurate and he kept the pace up all the way through
Good night of fights.
Overeem cementing his Hall of Fame status.
Great finishes from Kelleher, Muniz, and Saint Preux

His chin has held up well in the last two fights. I thought he was done.. happy to be proved wrong

UFC Vegas 10
Great card, great fights, great finishes -
Yeah was a very good day of fights. Main event could have gone either way. I wanted Hill to win but she let it go to the cards. 2 fights she could have been awarded in a row.
I had a look at the Bellator fights today and I have to say, I was pretty impressed. Didn’t know any of the fighters that well of the fights I watched but it was high level stuff.

UFC 253 - the travel for the kiwi fighters is a little awkward. The UFC was concerned about travel options from NZ to Abu Dhabi. So they asked them to fly to Vegas first and then they'll take the charter flight with the other fighters
So two long flights and the first one is a week earlier than normal
Also the UFC asked CKB to prepare two extra fighters - Blood Diamond and Carlos Ulberg. They might get called up if there's any positive covid tests/injuries.
There's five shows in a row at fight island so I guess they'll stay around after 253 -
UFC Fight Night: Covington vs Woodley - this was a big deal 2 years ago but not so much now.
Covington vs Woodley - Covington by UD or late stoppage. Woodley doesn't bang anymore.
Cerrone vs Price - Cerrone 2nd TKO
Chimaev vs Meerschaert - Chimaev Submission
Walker vs Spann - Walker 2nd TKO
Dern vs Markos - Markos UD or Dern Sub within 2
Holland vs Stewart - no idea -
Agree on the main event. I don't think Woodley can turn around the decline. Covington won't finish him but it should be comfortable
Price to KO Cerrone. I think he's done. Potentially his last fight too? (White made it clear in the media that Cerrone has to win)
Agree on Chimaev and Walker
-
Covington, Price, Chimaev, Walker, Markos, Stewart

Main event went mostly as expected. Woodley gets frustrated against top class guys now. Covington was impressive.. he's underrated because people pay too much attention to his silly wrestling persona
Cerrone's chin held up better than I thought it would. A draw pauses his slide
-
Stewart shafted IMHO
Thought Cowboy did enough too. You could see Price was surprised.
Walker is loose but tough as fuck.
Chimaev. Machine.
Dern great finish.
Covington deserved winner but average bout.
Prelims were exciting as fuck.
