Cortney Casey having a 9-9 record going into this fight has me wondering how many fighters are on the roster with a  50/50 record. 

Markos not getting her contract renewed lowered it by one.

In other news the prelims want all the fight bonuses.

It's rare in MMA let alone UFC to get a straight up boxing style corner retirement between rounds and it not specifically be injury related. Maybe more coaches and fighters should do that.

Agreed. She didn't have it today. Out classed on the feet. Couldn't secure the take down to make a difference. Probably struggling to breathe. She'll get more fights. It's not like she needs a 8 fight win streak in order to get a title shot.

I think that's great. I hate these "go out on your shield" mentality corners. I understand the fighter having a do or die mentality, but the corner should be the fail safe to protect them when they ain't got it. If you can't trust your corner to be honest with you and tell you when you're fucked, you need a new team.

Felicia Spencer was not fucking around. 

Ready for another hoss fight.

Max Holloway is my favorite fighter and every fight I get nervous that tonight is the night his chin finally gives out.

Felicia Spencer is in a tough spot. She's no way near the level of Amanda Nunes, but I think she is much better than roughly everyone above 135 not named Amanda Nunes other than Cyborg and Kayla Harrison.
