Ortega didn’t look like himself

Kinda seems like Valentina has solved Grasso. In a very boring way. Sigh.

I've become a casual in my old age. Merab's style is lame. STAND AND BANG PLS.

Sean should have wrecked him when he was being a complete dumbass and yelling at Tim Welch

Show was ok overall, not an alltimer.

So from what I've heard.... first tow fights on the main card were great. The rest pretty rubbish. Would this be accurate?

Both Ortega vs Lopes and Ribovics vs. Zellhuber were really good fights. Well worth watching. The latter was match of the night.

I thought Ortega v Lopes was just okay but I might just be biased because I wanted Ortega to win

Ribovics vs. Zellhuber is one of the fights of the year. The card did taper off after that though. Overall it was decent, but LV definitely jinxed it lmao.

Can't help but feel that pretty soon every single division will have a Khabib clone for a champion. I mean, I get it. It's an extremely effective style. But I just don't find it particularly entertaining to watch.

Gonna have to start watching more ONE FC to cope with this.

I'm gonna have to walk back everything negative I said about the sphere. Of course they were going to blast ads -- the production costs would've been absolutely insane for this event.

Watching some clips back and God damn, those visuals ruled. Surely it won't be a one-off? Dana's word is essentially worthless, and it made a record gate.

Yep. But I don't think anyone is beating Perera any time soon. Also hope Wonderboy gets it done with minimal damage sustained. Which seems unlikely. This sport is brutal, mayne.

Not a Wonderboy fan. Super overrated. Hit my biggest betting payday ever when I put money on Burns to beat him a few years ago, which I knew he would
