Colby Covington and masvidal very well could fight. They are good friends and in the same camp.

Colby has his hands full with Lawler up next, thought it was dumb of him to take that fight.

This card could be remembered as the career-ender card.

Diego, Rockhold, Askren, Holly.

So like we’re 2 days away from Jones testing positive for something or what?

Askren lost one time in the UFC and it's a career killer

Luke just sucks, Holly is past her prime, Sanchez been done

John doesn’t deserve that decision. He ran away and took way more damage.

But that stat is total bullshite anyway. Maybe landed more strikes but Jon did not land more **significant** strikes than Santos. Only thing Jon landed worth a damn was that elbow that he fell on and who knows how much his knee had to do with going down. Santos was buckling Jon with most of his leg kicks. He really had Jon's right calf fricked up as you see Jon use that stance in the 1st but eventually stops because of the calf kicks. Then his other lead thigh gets blown up. Santos 3-2 at the very least.

That’s laughable. There were 3 close rounds. I thought Jones won but I wouldn’t have been shocked to see it go 3-2 the other way.

Not really. Dana white wants to make money. He knows the big money is Jones and Cormier fighting again or even Jones going up to fight stipe.

Hours after the contest, Santos’ coach ‘Tata’ Duarte spoke with MMA Fighting and revealed that “Marreta” had surgery on his right knee shortly after agreeing to fighting Jones earlier this year, but kept it a secret from everyone. According to Duarte, Santos fought and beat Jan Blachowicz in February with a torn meniscus.
quote:

Santos has an appointment with a doctor in Las Vegas on Monday to find out the extent of the left knee injury he suffered Saturday night. Duarte says it’s probably a ligament injury, and is “praying” that it’s not serious.

Askren was just on Ariel Helwani’s show and say what you want about Ben, but he handled the loss like a boss. He could have easily hidden for a while but he didn’t

I know some of these guys fake it to hype it up but Masvidal and Askren genuinely do not like each other.

Much respect for Santos fighting through that.

It was close, could’ve easily been a draw.
