Got it. Thanks. Unfortunately I didn't pay attention to what websites the links were taking me to. I'll try those.

The sharp handed them back a report that was 5 pages long, and they were shocked at how detailed it was, with many things about his opponent that they hadn't noticed in their own research.

What a great idea. Hard to believe it wasn't standard operating procedure with all of them.

Frankie Edgar is one of my top 3 favorite fighters and it's looking like he's nearing the end of his career. He's going to have to drop a weight class in order to stay relevant. The guy is a pit bull but his size and age seem to have finally caught up with him.</br></br>I hope I'm wrong but it's certainly looking that way.

It's possible. But you also have to take into consideration that Blessed makes everyone looks like shit at 145.

So I've been really paying attention since the off season. Who are the up comers? I feel like Greg Hardy could be something in the heavy weight class. Who else ya got?

There were some fantastic fights tonight, once DC started taking those hard hooks to the liver it was over. Diaz Pettis was bad ass but Romero Costa was the fight of the card

I really like DC, but some of the shit he was saying this week made rooting for Stipe easy. I am a Stipe fan and have been since his first fight in the UFC, but I was torn during the first fight because I really like DC.

Stipe defended the belt more consecutive times than any heavyweight ever, and DC said he acted like a baby by not fighting until he got the rematch. That's just ridiculous. If you have held the belt longer than anyone in the history of the UFC, you deserve an immediate rematch. And DC, and frankly most of the media, kept talking about what would be DC's next fight, kinda like him beating Stipe was a foregone conclusion.

I am thrilled that Stipe won. Diaz looked great after a long layoff. And Romero vs Costa was possibly the most obvious PED User versus PED User fight in UFC history.

I didn't get to see the show last night. Did DC say he was done?

Yeah, lot's of juice in that one. Throwback to the days of Ken Shamrock and Mark Kerr.

No, he says he's not going to make a decision right now.

I cant see DC stepping back into the octagon unless its Jones 3 because I don't see Miocic vs DC 3 ever happening, especially not in the immediate future. If the UFC wasn't willing to give Miocic an immediate rematch after their first fight until 2 other options didn't work out then it's hard for me to believe that DC defending one time against Derrick Lewis being enough.

It's Jones or bust imo, and I dont think his family is going to be eager to watch him get murdered again so it's probably retirement. When I saw him taking off his gloves last night I thought he was going to leave them in the octagon and call it.

As much as he talked about money leading up to this fight, I wouldn’t be surprised if he took another one.

Best card in awhile. Really happy for Stipe.

Shame Costa got booed. Close fight and he didn't deserve it, imo.

Of course I missed it because the Chiefs were on. ****.

We'll see. He also mentioned he makes a lot of money outside of the octagon. Dana also left it up in the air as to what Miocic wants so it's not like the offer for a rematch is on the table for DC if he wants it. Miocic will probably want to fight someone else because he was the 3rd option to try and get his belt back.

Just feels like it comes down to retirement or getting his face pounded vs Jones for a 3rd time. I would guess it will be retirement.

CB Dollaway failed the shit out of a drug test, and is out 2 years. He tested positive for four different banned substances, and a "prohibited method".
