I actually turned my head away from the TV when he went for the omoplata thinking "there is no way in hell he will actually finish him with that" Boy was I wrong.

Wha? Damn, I missed it. Hopefully there's a replay or the fight highlights are on YT or something. Always been a fan of Saunders; he won't be a title contender but his fights are always entertaining.

I fell asleep and missed the last 4 fights. Of course they were all KO's. My luck.

The UFC used the smaller cage in this event, and once again there were a lot of finishes. They need to stick with the cage.

They used a smaller cage??? WOW. I've been calling for this since the WEC merger days lol. Obviously not for the heavier weight classes but the WEC cage was amazing just for this reason

Now it looks like Eddie/Cowboy winner will most likely get the next title shot

I expect RDA to get one of Khabib/Green

The smaller cage they should use everytime, even for the heavier weight classes. The smaller one is 25', the bigger one is 30'. Not a huge difference but when every event they use the smaller one more finishes happen and generally the fights are more exciting. It's not a coincidence imo.

Wow was that really the first omoplata finish in the UFC?

and WOW did Benson really just get jacked up that bad?

Part of me really just has to say FU to Mike McCarthy on that one lol
