Is tonight the greatest moment in Dominick Cruz's life?

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.
Still not as bad as Colton Smith, tbh

Stann having to raise his voice to be heard over the boos

I really liked it when the camera angle let you see all the ringside photographers, who were completely ignoring the fight and idly checking their equipment

Im only half watching but this is less boring than i assumed itd be, id take this any day over TUF brazil two roided out nondescript guys doing bad kickboxing for 3 rounds

They should introduce a mercy rule where the ref just calls it a no contest because it's lovely and boring.

Congrats to Roundtree though for going completely on the defensive and stalling for 3 rounds against a much smaller and weaker guy and convincing everyone its the other guys fault the fight was bad

I agree and it should happen when the guy getting outgrappled looks up and shrugs as if to say "Hey folks.. its not my fault im sitting here with my back pinned against the fence and my hands in the other guys gloves stalling, im as bored as you guys are"

But he was dominated and mounted no offense which is what also what 10-8s are for.

I'm of the thought 10-8s are only near finishes. The kind of poo poo in that fight is 10-9 no matter how little offence the bottom got off.

A 10-8 round, in my opinion, is only for a round where one fighter runs up the cage and headkicks the other.

For that one I gotta put a significant amount of the blame on Khalil. The closed captioning was entertaining at least. Did Saab Chez fight like that the whole season?
