Here's hoping TJ Dillashaw is KTFO by Cory Sandhagen either quickly or through a right beating.

For real. I have been pulling for Sandhagen's opponents during this big run of his and been disappointed every time, barring Sterling. Now that I want him to viciously knock a dude out, I hope he doesn't disappoint.

If all I knew about Dillashaw was that half of his face on the poster, I'd still want him smacked so hard in the gob that it spins round like Daffy Duck.

What everyone else has said.  Sandhagen has carried himself like a bit of a dick in the past, but I really hope that Dillashaw eats the knee that killed Frankie Edgar.

I'm a big Frankie Edgar fan so it sucked seeing Frankie knocked out cold for the first time ever. I'd love a repeat of THAT knee by Corey Sandhagen. Cool how we're unanimously wanting TJ Dillashaw KTFO. C'mon Corey!

Co-signing everyone else on our hopes for the main event.

Macy Chiasson has pulled out due to injury. Damn, was looking forward to Aspen Ladd's return, one of my top favorites.

Did Maycee Barber just plug a QAnon thing in her post (undeserved) decision win?

Because they pretend to care about Child Traffickking, don't they?

Sijara Eubanks had quite the chip on her shoulder tonight.  Elise Reed's eye payed the price for it.

I felt like the judges made the right call in the main

Sandhagen has that fight if he just stopped spinning. Still, TJ looked good. Timing on his takedowns was fantastic, he didn't rely on countering the spins alone by any means.

I got no problem with the decision. Sandhagen's strategy from round 3 on was to just to do barely enough to edge the rounds, which is probably not the best idea when the other guy is the aggressor. Sandhagen landed the better strikes (he landed a nasty body shot in the final round), but it was a lot of space in between. Plus, he was giving up his back far too willingly. I think Sandhagen believed he was outlanding TJ at a bigger clip than he actually was (or wasn't because TJ landed more in RDs 1 and 3).

Yikes, that's nasty.

This feels like a loss that will improve Sandhagen's game in the long run. Be more consistent with the output and far less cutesy. 

God damn that is nasty.

Have I missed any word on the UFC Bantamweight Championship? Yan vs. Sterling was on my 6th March birthday, the first time a title changed hands through disqualification. Sterling won due to Yan's illegal knee.
