Joshua Van might be the best an MMA fighter has ever been at 22 years of age. Just unreal how skilled this kid is at only 22, AND only 27 months into his pro MMA career. Sky is the limit, one of the most exciting and promising fighters in MMA right now.
Some notes on 10-8 rounds tonight
Old lady Byrd didn’t give Milosevic a 10-8 in rd 1
Chris Lee no 10-8 rd 1 for Lorenco
Sal D gave 2 10-8s
I thought Rd 3 for Nakamura deserved 10-8. And maybe even Fernando rd 1
We need more 10-8s given out, but never see an increase.
That Johnny Walker finish was an all time great moment. A question mark kick, back fist, to a sprinting right hand that sent Waldo flying through the air, Herzog fumbling around with them on the ground, it was hilarious, absurd, violent, the perfect combination.
The all time great meme fighter Johnny Walker has done it once again. He was fighting ok with kicks and movement but was losing key moments and getting hurt but stayed tough and found an amazing finish in round 3, that was incredible, turned into the perfect apex main event
Money Mitch clearly won 2 and 3, maybe even round 1
Nice to see the lad continue to improve while fending off tough competition, that's his 3rd win in a row as an underdog
Wow another insane fight, Nakamura earned a 10-8 in rd 3. Huge knockdown and near tko, that has to be worth more than a traditional 10-9
Clear 10-9 rd 2 for Schmid, lean 10-9 rd 1 for Schmid
That's a bad decision, round 3 has to be worth more than a close round
If you give Tommy Peterson some brazilian athletic jobber, he will gladly kill him in the 3rd round, but he likes to makes things difficult for himself before winning. Valter Walker does not want that rematch.
I bet the fans at the UFC apex have been warned not to boo because there was just about 3 minutes of complete stalling and holding going on between Silva and Ferandes before finally a few people boo'd
Magomedov pulls off a legit buzzer beater knockdown to steal the fight back in the final second of the fight, a crazy, great fight. Magomedov was the better athlete and more physical fighter, Delano was more skilled but fought really poorly despite almost winning, amazing fight
Great fight, two close rounds, both should be split type rounds. Delano was ahead in rd 1 but going for that leg lock and eating gnp gave the nod to Mago that round. Round 2 I lean towards Delano landing more damage but only by a small margin, awesome fight, I lean Delano winning
Seok Hyeon Ko wins another boring decision of mostly laying on top in 4th UFC fight, if he didn't already sign a new contract, he isn't getting re-signed. He is a classic example of a grappler that is not looking to advance position. 0 entertainment factor in his fights, see ya
Look at the clock, Souza wound up at the :47 mark, connected with the 2 punch combo and sent Parsons to the mat within 1 second
Holy shit Jose Souza with one of the nastiest knockouts of the year in the first fight of the card. Uppercut, left hook to the fuckin cemetery. Parsons fought with no effort to win, just tried to spar with the faster, longer, better striker, it didn't go well to say the least.
Tomorrow’s card is a uniquely bad apex card. There are only 2 fights out of 14 that the favorite is less than 65%
6 favorites in the 67-75% range
6 favorites over 75% favored
17 DWCS alum, lof mismatches, no relevance, not a ton to look forward to…

Underrated moment of the year was Stolzfus beating Abdul Malik as a +500 underdog in a really fun fight. That 2nd round was insane. Reminded me of an old school MMA win, crafty and tough veteran grinidng out a win vs a younger more athletic guy
