I should have known Holly would lose to a relentless wrestler eventually. Just didn't think it would be against Tate. Holly looked amazing against Ronda, her only fight in the UFC where she looked flawless. Ronda's getting her belt back now.
I'm glad Conor lost because he needed to be brought back down to earth. I thought it was so stupid for him to take that risk and jump up two weight classes. I could tell it all went to his head just by looking at him backstage and walking to the octagon. I give him credit though because most fighters in this era of mma would never have jumped up two.
Nate was just finding his range doe. Would have been an epic fight if Connor didn't take that lazy shot. Mad props to him going up in weight doe. There probably isn't another fighter who would take that risk.
Dana mentioned Lawler vs nate in the press conference. I don't see a reason for that though. Nate is a LW. Other than the Conor fight he has struggled at 170. Now that he is in shape and motivated i would think they would put him against RDA in hopes of getting a 155 rematch with conor. That would be Huge.
Im hearing that GSP wouldn't have just come to Vegas to watch fights (ariel himself). He's been training a lot but i guess is still on the fence.
He always struggled against wrestlers who could cancel out his jits. I think Nate could beat Lawler since Lawler hasnt really looked that good in his last 3 fights.
