Great fight pass card, these chinese fighters were showing out. Francis has that scary power like Rumble at 205, if he touches you its bad news. The Brock fight seems to be dead at this point, depending on the outcome of Jones vs Gus 2 they'll definitely try for a third DC vs Jones. I'd like to see Francis vs Stipe again if that happens.

Overeem looked great, he was patient and delivered some heavy GnP.

That fight does nothing for Stylebender. He wins he beat a past his prime legend, he loses(not likely but possible) he gets pushed to the back of the line for a title shot. Whitaker is injury prone and may very well not make it to the title defense against Kelvin. His win against Brunson is more impressive than Costa’s win over Hall.

The Ngannou hype train was the end of 2017/start of this year, Dana and the UFC already tried hyping him up.

I feel for Blaydes though, he actually had crazy potential.
