Plus Cody needs to learn to throw a decent jab and uppercut, his punching seems to consist exclusively of hooks. Against someone as quick as TJ you need to mix up your striking.

He displayed how to throw a good jab and an uppercut vs Cruz so its not a case of learning how to do it. He seemed to be too emotionally invested in this one and has a lot of faith in the 50/50 gun fights which is always going to be a risk.

Quite an odd fighter really, blew threw a large portion of opposition by blitzing in combination (which was effective in his fights), got to the Cruz fight and fought much more methodically using tons of feints and drawing Cruz out and then throwing caution to the wind in both TJ fights recently, very strange.

RIP James Vick :D what a KO. It's crazy how athletic Gaethje is. He was jumping around the octagon like an olympic level gymnast :D

Awesome card last night. Too many good fights to mention (except the boring WMMA fights).

Woodley will fight not to lose like he has since taking the belt, the question is will Till fight aggressive? He didn't Vs Wonderboy but this is a completely different fight, Woodley's wrestling might keep him on the back foot however.

I think he takes Woodley out, hope so anyway.
