It means some fighters are allowed to use PED's while others aren't. Mayweather, wtf. Legacy gone, I hope. And no, this fight happened because Mayweather is too poor. Why else would he do this fight? His career is completely over now. He must be completely broke to be looking for a fight like this. And this was the best money fight he could get. | ||

The rumors of his spending habits forcing things like this fight have been going on for a while. Its a common tale that professional athletes end up broke after their playing years are over and I wouldn't be shocked to see it happen to mayweather despite the mountains of cash he should have after the McGregor fight. | ||

That's also why he took pictures of him with MMA gloves in the middle of last year, probably not to actually fight in a MMA match, but to show his interest in investing there. About the fight itself? Nasukawa isn't really good at flopping, is all I remember from it. | ||

Great having a well respected combat sports authority, Stephen A. Smith, lend his wisdom to this event. Johnson and now Dillashaw... Cejudo is a legend killer. | ||

Quite a lot of good matches, especially in the prelim card, Cowboy vs Hernandez is one hell of a match. Calderwood vs Lipski was really entertaining too, and a whole bunch of TKO and submissions. I always feel exhausted when watching Gillespie, the dude is a leech, can't get him off your back. | ||

Cejudo came in strong in there though, can't take that out of him. I just hope they're not going to rematch at 135, the Bantamweight division is in a neverending limbo already thanks to the two Dillashaw/Garbrandt fights, the second one was not a necessity at all. Add the fact Dillashaw had to prepare for this 125 match, it's more or less 2 years for a new challenger by the time it happens.

That stoppage looked a bit lame to me too but Dillashaw got caught a few times and put himself in a risky position straight away. It was a bit disappointing from a spectator's point of view. Calderwood is my favourite fighter and she kicked ass! Her ground game is epic now and that seemed to come out of nowhere. She dominated in every area and was still going for submissions off her back after 14-15 minutes. I hope she gets a shot at one of the big fighters at flyweight. | ||

The stoppage is about defending yourself and TJ wasn't doing any of that. Cejudo landed every strike at the end with TJ getting dropped lol. Hes salty af and I'm glad Cejudo won. | ||
