Get the **** in, TJ!

Nice show of respect from Cody. Not sure he would have allowed it if he was on the other end, mind.

Love this sport.

I would agree with that Craterloads if Cody hadn't dismantled Dominick so handily. I see it playing out very similarly to the Garbrandt vs Cruz fight, lots of wasted movement by TJ but sharp accurate striking of Cody being the effective offence.

Edit: Well I was wrong!

You were saying, jk it was always going to be close.

Was a great night for UFC. Great contests all round!

This year I loved the Bones fight. I screamed at the screen when the finish happened! That was my fight of the year... Shame it was all a bit fake though seeing as he juiced.. oh well.

Damn what a card. Three title fights and three new champions :D I expected TJ to win but didn't see the other two happening.

Bisping is so tough, there was no chance he was tapping :D

After the poor reffing in New York over the last year, I must say they were outstanding tonight. I don't recall seeing Blake Grice ref before but he was great on the early prelims and prelims.

Great fights - I thought Bisping had done what he planned to do which was drag GSP into 3/4/5 rounds which he knew he would gas. However props to GSP for getting it done but I don't think he had much more in the tank if Bisping had weathered that knockdown.

Well done to GSP but to call him middleweight champ after a single fight is a bit silly. He's jumped straight into a fight he should never have been given but I guess he's got the belt so you can't argue with that. Bisping was class in defeat.

Thought Rose was superb - she was calm/collected all week in the build up and put on a clinic to win the title. Excellent stuff.

TJ/Cody - I get the whole hate thing/ex-team mates but wasn't a great fan of either, fight was decent but nothing to write home about.

Totally agree about DC - awful commentary - just chanting Rose, Rose, Rose over and over was so annoying.
