GSP, Cody, Joanna, Wonderboy, Borrachina.
Borrachina should KO Hendricks in the first round.
Bisping - just cause he supports United.
TJ - because Cody is a cnut.
Rose - because i like an underdog to win.
Wonderboy - i like him. Will be a good fight.
Borrachinha - never seen him, but Hendricks' been useless since he was robbed by the refs against GSP.

Early prelims started already.
Sick elbow. Tried it two seconds before and just went again.
Good fight.

fecking awesome
Vicious beauty that elbow. 
Must be weird for Firas seeing your little bro getting knocked out like that.
Not sure it’s wise to train your own family

Holy shit what a knockout.
I was going to stay up, but that's not going to work, what time is main card?
2am UK time.
Meh, now this a pickle
Not sure i can stay up, but no point sleeping
Just started watching from the beginning now and holy hell that KO in the first fight was sickly. 99% of knockouts don't really bother me much anymore as you get used to them but that one left a funny feeling in my stomach. Can just hope he makes a full recovery.
Feel for Firas Zahabi too. He has to corner for the rest of the night including for GSP, after seeing that happen to his little brother. Credit to Joe Rogan for calling the exact opening moments before it happened too.

What a clusterfeck this is.
Ufff I was worried they would feck up
Good decision...

Yeah good decision in the end. I really thought they were going to screw Blaydes over there.
Shades of Mousasi - Weidman. Slightly different scenario but similar confusion with fighter unable to continue.
Got Gall for this next one
It's so annoying when refs give warnings but never take action. It makes the warnings mean absolutely nothing. Gall knows full well that he can just ignore the ref and carry on.
Pleased with how that went
Gall has serious holes in his game. Was worried he was gonna pull off the sub at the end and it would have been due to weak refereeing

Both guys unimpressive...
Thought Brown looked super impressive
He did what he had to do, but i seriously imagine Mike Perry would murder him for example.
Nothing close to amazing about his game. he is just a great athlete.
Got Anderson for this one... OSP too unreliable.
close first round.

3 in a row and all finishes

DC gettin flashbacks right now.
Good fight. Been good so far.
Same referee, same crazy ending.
Surely a DQ. Travesty if not. Ref called time 3 times and had his hands on him while he was throwing the kick.
Cmon Joe
This is biggest fight of the night for me.
