We're all doomed
I thought it was a good stoppage, but I don't like UFC Benson so I'm probably biased since seeing him get knocked out was really satisfying

Big John is human and of course makes mistakes, but he's also been doing this for literally 20 years so I tend to just trust his judgement when he's right on top of it.

Bendo was obviously done after that left hook that sat him down, dunno why anyone would say otherwise. His arms were flailing and he wasn't doing anything good to defend, he would have just eaten more shots.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Still, Woodley and RDA are at least cool fighters.

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.
Before this fight they were showing the rankings and it was still Benson Henderson #1 and Gilbert Melendez #2 and I thought to myself "how are they going to bump Gilbert up to #1 right before the Pettis fight like you know they're going to do" and then RDA does it before UFC's marketing team has to finagle it themselves. lmao

Nobody is saying otherwise except the dumb mouthbreathers in the crowd. Even Bendo could only mount the ol' "it is what it is" defence. I find it funny that 20 or so people crawled out of the woodwork to explain that it was a good stoppage when literally nobody here said otherwise. Who cares if the crowd booed it?

I missed the beginning. I'm assuming RDA and Saunders were POTN but what was FOTN?

e: Vick Lazaro is the clear winner imo

Four PotN's awarded to RDA, Mein, Leites, and Saunders. No Fight of the Night awarded

WHO ABUSED HIM. WHO ABUSED THE BOY.
Ahahahaha holy gently caress that balled on all cylinders. What strange witches' brew is involved in having a main card be comprised of a streak of contender level dudes being starched within 2 minutes all the way through the main card? That's so goddamned unlikely. I wanted Mein to win, but I hated to see Pyle lose like that because he's a solid vet. What a hook, though!

It was incredible seeing Bendo get (undeniably) knocked the gently caress out for once. I was thinking the entire (mere moments of the) fight how Dos Anjos looked like he had leveled his striking up by a ridiculous level, but goddamn! And then he steals the whole "love ya, Jesus" bit. Bravo.

Thales Leites making a successful UFC comeback at this point is pretty cool and funny. Good for him. I hope he somehow makes it all the way to a title shot.

Given Weidman is now even scarier than Silva striking, where does Leites go to avoid fighting at all costs? Phase through the floor of the Octagon?
