that kind of sucks for Duke. She'd have a great shot of finishing the bout if it were a 5 rounder

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.

Yep. If the fight were in reverse it would have been Duke going for a tons of takedowns and submissions in round 1, with Philips overtaking her in rounds 2 and 3. Instead it was too little too late for Duke and she had probably the best round of her "UFC career" and now she's gonna get cut.

She needs to go back to Invicta or whatever and figure out what kind of fighter she even wants to be. Her build and her background indicate she should be leaning on her kickboxing, but in most of her fights she barely throws hands, seldom kicks, and is really eager to go to the ground.

In fights with so much leg play I appreciate when the fighters are of such contrasting skin tone. Makes it easier to follow.

Nijem was doing excellent on the feet, then would go for a take down and have to fight submissions every round.

Wow. I don't agree, but great fight none-the-less.

People can disagree with me but I think all 3 fights have been great so far. Duke vs Philips had a cruddy round 2 but 1 and 3 were good.

That should also be asked the judges.

He probably won using PRIDE rules, but Nijem won with UFC rules.

Holbrook gonna be getting hyped.

Was Cruickshank the guy on the Faber/Cruz TUF that Cruz was like "oh yay I'm gonna do a cartwheel into the cage and get knocked out" after he got ko'd shooting face first into a knee?

e: based on that entrance I'm gonna say yes

I mean if you score based on close submission attempts then both the D'arce in R2 and kneebar in R3 were closer to finishing than anything Nijem did. But Nijem pretty clearly controlled the majority of the action in R1 and R3.
