Loved seeing Little Nog get the win. Retiring now would be perfect, but that almost certainly won't happen now.

I hope Shogun wins too. It would be terrible for LHW going forward, but oh well.

Lineker/Font up next. Should be a whole lot of fun.

Maia/Brown is a great fight. I've got nothing against Brown, but I hope Maia wins and I think he will. Early sub would be best, but another dominant win like the Nelson one would be great too.

Goddamn Sporting Globe not opening till 10.30 when made a booking for 10! Already sacrificed the fight pass prelims!

What have I missed?

Some good fights...A draw...lil nog ko'd pat cummins
 
Great performance by Lineker.

Ridiculous fight between Trinaldo and Medeiros. It's hard to believe that someone can take the punishment that Medeiros took and not get finished.

Santos did what was expected of him. Thankfully he didn't land any head kicks flush because that would have put Marquardt out for a while. Santos is improving. Before pretty much all he had was kicks. His kicking game is exceptionally good, but now his hands are getting better and in the fight before this he won it in the clinch after having trouble at kicking range.

Stupid fans as if you would do that. Does that happen often?

Bloody narrow entrance isn't it? Shirley for the non Brazilian fighters you have tighter security?
 
All Maia except for a brief bit of success Brown had at the beginning of the 3rd. Glad to see him get the finish. Very tough stylistic match-up for Brown and he'd be really disappointed that he got submitted right at the end of the fight after surviving for so long. Brown's a much better defensive grappler than he once was. Years ago Brown would have panicked and got submitted really quickly.
 
Maia's style is actually perfect for him right now. Not only is he working to his strengths with a 100% BJJ gameplan but he is preserving himself as well. He has taken something like only a dozen significant strikes in his last few fights

Yeah, it's amazing how little damage he's taken in his past 3 fights. All against very good fighters too. I don't think Magny landed 1 significant strike on him. Then Nelson barely hit him. And Brown landed a few more strikes than the other two.
