That stand up in the main event is proof that 12-6 is beyond stupid:cuss:. Imo Goddard should've warned Eddie instead of taking position. I've seen repeated eye pokes=only verbal warnings (instead of point executions) so to me taking that position from Eddie seemed harsh. I know refs have their own subjective interpretations of the rules stupid ones included.

Point executions? Deductions!
:bigjoint:
TJ v Cody
Looks a little thin for a PPV
Main event I'd pick TJ to win via strikes 4thRound
DJ will win :clap:
Unfortunately casual fans give zero fucks bout 125ers so buyrates will be low.... too bad TJ v Cody is a wicked scrap Cody has amazing power in his right hand but TJ has so many weapons

Goddard was the ref for DC vs Stipe. Plenty of eye pokes in that fight to penalize.
I thought the co main was stopped a little early too.

Nah, fuck eddy. I'm tired of eddy alveres, guys chin is so depleted it's always just a matter of time...Eddys figher pilot response has sizzled out, he doesn't seem dangerous when he's hurt anymore.

This sucks. Bad decision.
Controversial for sure. But I think there's a case to be made for Cejudo. To me, it seems like DJ is super consistent, but doesn't really offer up these flashes or explosions, so it stands out more when Cejudo explodes into a takedown.

If you judge the fight as a whole, I think DJ won. But each round taken by itself, I can see how Cejudo got the nod.

I'm not saying it was a good decision, but I'm not really saying it was a bad one either.

Just rewatched Cejuto v DJ. I score it 3-2 for Cejuto. 3rd round was the hardest one to score take downs with no top control vs leg kicks vs octagon control. The other 4 rounds were straight forward IMO

It sucks to see DJs streak end like that with a split d and him claiming injury. If he really tore his LCL and possibly broke something then he smokes Cejudo in the 3rd fight

I haven't seen a fighter who adapts to styles as well as DJ does. When they rematch, I think DJ gets his title back.

Look at the difference between his first fight with Ian McCall, which I still think McCall won, compared to the second fight that DJ ran away with.

He broke his foot pretty early in that fight, the fact he hung in for 5 rounds is amazing. A lot of people would've been looking for a way out after that.

I'd imagine that didn't make stopping take downs or getting up very easy. IF he gets a rematch he wins pretty easily i think. He barely lost with a broken foot and a torn lcl whatever that is.

100%! I broke my foot once can't imagine fighting a world class killer in a cage in that shape. Got to hand it to Henry, most guys wouldn't eat a head kick, roll an ankle then comeback to beat Mighty Mouse. That strong Mexican fro probably soaked up some of that head kick :lol:

The sad thing with DJ is since beating Borg he's had a shoulder surgery, now a broken foot and likely a LCL tear. I hope he comes back and retires as 125LB king but you can't dismiss how much better Cejuto has looked. Plus DJ will be rehabbing injuries instead of sharpening his (mad)skills...:hump:your right he still probably does it he's Mighty Mouse.

You know dana white told the judges to give it to Henry if it goes to decision. Close doesn't beat the champ.. looking a little better then the last time he fucked you up doesn't win you the belt. Fuck the ufc and fuck nate Diaz too, that fucken pussy.... I know nate smokes a lot of weed. If you're reading this, muthafuck your ass bitch. Not getting knocked out doesn't win you fights.
