And it's over! What a fast match for the main event, even Johnson vs Cejudo is more interesting that the main event lol. What a fight though, full 5 rounds fight and ended with split decision, Congrats for Cejudo for the new champion and Dillashaw for defending the title.

Yes, it was a split decision, however, some see it in favor of Johnson. But I see Cejudo taking the win tonight. One thing I noticed about Cejudo though is how is is very positive about taking Might Mouse out. Sure he lost the first fight but he vastly improved and that self-confidence was amazing. As expected, TJ again blasted Cody in just one round. One of the best bantams ever. Congrats to both of them.

I think they will both make adjustments, and TJ using kicks should be part of that.

Both will be trying to counter, that is one reason I like the over.

@krach. Thank you! How would this fight be different from the first fight for you? What would be Cody's adjustment versus T.J.'s kicking from a distance that makes Cody an effortless target?

I reckon tonight, Cody might be the pressing attacker, not the waiting counterpuncher.

If you guys haven't made your bets on the main event yet, then I suggest not watching this until you do... Anyway, it's another good breakdown as usual by Dan Hardy. So make that bet, watch the vid and regret making that bet. Lol. Grin

Here's a good breakdown of the main event by BJJ Scout.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LOvGZLAB3o

Didn't notice much watching the weigh ins. Its been said Montel Jackson took this fight on two weeks notice. Late notice fights used to mean you'd bet on their opponent expecting them to not be well prepared. But lately the late notice hasn't made much of a difference & so that may no longer be the case.

Polyana Viana is gorgeous. Ricky Simon may have officially weighed 134 pounds which could mean he's undersized for his weight class.

Bethe Corriea fight is cancelled on Bethe's eye having complications after eye surgery.

I suspect Cody losing the 1st fight was bad karma. Team Alpha Male and Urijah Faber made up stories about TJ that weren't true. They said that TJ Dillashaw ended Chris Holdsworth's UFC career by hitting Holdsworth in the back of his head repeatedly in training. That was probably a lie as Chris Holdsworth said it wasn't true. They said other false things about TJ which could have played a role in Cody losing that fight.

There are probably easier fights to bet @ UFC 227 than Cody vs TJ.

No need to bet on difficult to predict fights when there are easier options.

It's more like Garbrandt got a little cocky after the first round and Dillashaw keeping it calm and focused.

TJD was saved by the bell on that fight. Cody isn't the kind of fighter who loses the fight because of psychological pressure.

I am rooting for gabrandt over dillashaw due to his record with only 1 loss over 12 fights. I know everything could happen in the ring but it looks like gabrandt is much tougher than his counterpart.

Fully agree.
Garbrand is a fucking legend. Every single one of his punches is devastating and has potential to KO the opponent. Extremely agile, fast reflexes, tough jaw, good cardio.
His only loss was against TJ and if you watch the fight again you will be able to tell who dominated throughout the whole fight.

Garbrandt will put all of himself to win this fight and he will make it because he's a winner.

TJD is also a great athlete, I'd say the best of the division right after Cody, but never as good as Cody. If TJ wins, it's because of a combination of luck and tricks. But the fundamentals are in favour of CG.
1.80 for TJ and 2.00 for Cody is a no brainer for me.

Anyone who intends to bet on TJD is welcome to do so, but I would strongly recommend to watch two fights before placing the bet.
Cody Garbrandt VS TJ DIllashaw
Cody Garbrandt VS Dominic Cruz

Garbrandt has something to prove to the MMA fans so he will try his best to win this fight, however odds makers sided on Dillashaw to win this fight. I think this fight will last the full 5 rounds as both fighters will try not to be knocked down. Dillashaw will give his best effort to keep the title. I used nitrogensports to place my bet on Garbrandt.

He is motivated that's for sure. I rewatched the first fight and It Cody is really quick however TJ has a lot of weapons in his arsenal like legs kicks that did the initial damaged in round 2 made him wobbly until he was caught and TJ jumped on him. I don't think the fight will last 5 rounds though, they will still go at it with the intention of getting a KO specially Cody.

^ Actually that was my first thought, and made the bet on Dillashaw at 1.81. But after watching Dan Hardy's breakdown, I'm not too sure tbh. I think this match is a coin flip/slightly leaning towards Garbrandt.

I didn't realize how quick Garbrandt was til recently.

Cody Garbrandt said he had back issues for the 1st fight but took the fight anyway to pay his bills. I would guess his back is fully rehabbed/recovered now? We can see if makes a difference in the rematch.

I wasn't aware that Cody has back issues on their first fight. At least he has excuses when he lost to TJ. Hope though that his back is fully healed so that we can see a good fight and put up a good show.

People probably won't remember Ricky Simon's name. He's the guy who held a choke until round 3 ended. When he let go of the choke, his opponent was unconscious on the mat, then woke up. The referee called it a round 3 technical knockout. There was controversy over that.

I agree. It was really controversial end. I think Merab was ahead and winning the fight until that choke.

Bethe Corriea also likely wouldn't be remembered if she hadn't said something about Ronda Rousey's father committing suicide then been KO'ed by Ronda.

Corriea is already irrelevant. Ronda shut his mouth and it seems she hasn't recovered (so as Ronda).

^ Yup... Prolly all healed up now. It's in the UFC Coundown vid which I'll post below. Lol. Grin

Anyway, I'm pretty much more excited for Dillashaw vs Garbrandt more than any other of the other main events this year. I hope it goes thru all the 5 rounds with nonstop action.
