Why can't we have nice things? Yoel is hurt so his fight with Jacare is off again. ****.

Great card tonight. Van Zant, Holloway, Jacare and Rockhold all dominated.

So Felice can go back to being an unknown nobody. I was surprised she got dominated, but not that she lost. She talks way too much for her skills.

Souza some what getting screwed. That wasn't a fight really though and the guy was just looking to get back to the UFC and tapped early.

Love reading all the excuses Lyoto fans are saying. He slipped, the big elbow was illegal, etc. He got punched/pushed down in both rounds and the elbow hit the ear, it was clearly clean.

The post fight show was great with Luke and Chris. Victor is going to be pissed if he was watching.

So looks like Lyoto was so messed up after rd 1 he forgot his mouthpiece and didn't realize it until he was getting punched on the ground. Rogan said he was pointing to his mouth at the ref, but no one knew he was missing it.

His corner, doctor, and ref really should have some more training after this fight. There was no reason that fight should have been allowed to continue. He couldn't make it back to his corner on his own and the ref or doctor didn't pause it after the 1 minute to check him out. Then he was struggling to move when rd 2 started.

His corner should have thrown the towel in, but that is a hard call. I can't believe they let him back out there without his mouthpiece.
