Great card tonight, and hopefully sets things up for some good match-ups on the Vegas card in December.

Not often you see the 3 top fights on a card being flips, so definitely going to be burning the midnight oil tonight.

Stipe looked good before getting clipped, and think that he'll be a bit more careful after feeling Cormier's power last time. He sat out to get a chance to run it back, and can't blame him. MMA math generally doesn't work, but given what Francis has done to everyone bar his blip against Derrick, that form of Stipe dominiating him is aging really well, and I'm going with Stipe, even though I love Cormier.

Costa is undefeated, but Romero is a different animal, and I'm just going to watch this without doing any money.

Think Pettis should beat the brakes off Diaz, though. So, am going to try and pay for my December stay with a straight bet on Pettis.

Had a free bet to use , so gone for the underdog treble of Stipe/Diaz/Costa.

Some good fights on the undercards, too. However, none I feel strongly enough about to invest in.

Looked like Pettis rolled his ankle, but regardless, that was a superb performance from Diaz.

Never been his biggest fan, but just have to tip the hat.

Your treble is on.

The booing of Costa was awful imo

Yeah, that almost covers my bet on Pettis Laugh

That was embarrassing. The only thing they should have been boing about, was the fact that it wasn't a five rounder.

Diaz said he got tired, which makes it all the more impressive.

Good freeroll now, because I like both these guys.

I thought maybe Romero edged it but it was close, not a bad decision.

Yeah, couldn't really argue whoever they gave it to.

This is very close, and as expected 2 lumps are very tired going into the 4th, lol.

Wow

Never saw that coming

What price did Miocic hit?

Someone wanted £3k DC 1.2 end of 3rd, but was barely matched thankfully for them!
Report tobermory August 18, 2019 6:06 AM BST
I thought DC was 3-0 up, though could argue the 3rd round I suppose.

Great fight, and very intelligent adjustments from Stipe.

Dana will be trying to set the trilogy up for 2021, or maybe the Dec card in Vegas.

Guess I'll be paying for my stay, but at least it's not costing double after my lucky bink in the treble.

Had been up for 18 hours, so will have to rewatch it. DC won the first easily, from memory won the 2nd, and the 3rd maybe could have gone to Stipe, as you said.

Jorge v Nate co-main in December would make my Xmas, and no Conor on the card means we don't get too rinsed on ticket prices.

Stipe, what a beast.  Great win for Nate too.
