Meant to post last night but..


Holy Crap...Luque v Barbarena was one of the wildest fights Ive ever seen. I expected Luque to make fairly short work of him coming in....but Barbaena took more clean head shots than Ive ever seen and never went down...at least not for 14 minutes at 55 seconds. Just a war.


Fili Jury had entertaining moments, but overall I didnt know either fighter enough and was just ok.


Gracie was intriguing. I mean he choked a guy out in 30 seconds...thats what a Gracie is supposed to do. Want to see more...but maybe...


The card waned a little to me with the straw weight fight and the co-main each struggling to keep my attention


And then Velasquez v Ngannou...what a strange one.
Ive watched it 100 times. I still dont see a clean shot land, not one hard enough to put Cain down, immediately the announce team starting talking bout "blowing out a knee"...and he did fall awkwardly. But he was walking around fine afterwards with seemingly no swelling.


I really dont know what to make of that main.
