Pretty big fight and biggest thing in live sports in months.

I'll chime in on this thread. I started one on the GB and quickly realized "well this is the GB"

Usman has 20 lbs on BMF and if he's smart will try to
Wrestle the whole night. BMF will be swinging for the fences.

Usman in 3 via TKO (punches)

Volk/Max will be an interesting matchup. We've all seen Holloway's greatness but can it resurrect against the man that took his belt in dec.

Max in 5 split decision

Yan/Aldo is also a toss up. Basic wrestler vs striker. I'll say Aldo has his hand raised after 4 rounds TKO via punches

Solid take.

I think the "6 days notice" was over played on early odds. Usman a more well rounded and better technical fighter, but mentally who knows. He was preparing for another fighter while Masvidal had his sights on Usman before that negotiation fell thru.

Feels a bit like the Diaz McGregor #1, BUT Usman has way better gas tank than McGregor.


*Anyone visiting this thread know where the fight might be on in a bar in Houston or anywhere other than home ordering?

Great fight. Yan looks like he took no damage at all.

No way anybody had that 3-2 Volko.

Robbery.

Robbery.


I think max felt he won as long as he didn't get destroyed in the last round. That's how I felt too. They were light knockdowns but he knocked him down twice in the first two. No way Volko did enough after that to win a decision and I don't know how anyone could argue that he did.

I think Burns would have been the better match-up for Usman.

Props to Usman for smart strategy on the win. Clinch and ground game on point.

Exactly, that's what I was telling a lot of my buddies that were pumped for Masvidal. I bought the PPV mainly for the Holloway fight. I had a little hope for some miraculous knockout from Gamebred, but wasn't surprised the fight went the way it did.
