Been a huge fan of Shavkat for a while so I'm happy to see him getting a little hype train going from this fight. Entertaining night so far.

The way Alexa Grasso took the back and got the rear naked choke in on Valentina Shevchenko in R4. New UFC Women's Flyweight Champion!

That was what I hoping for from Alexa Grasso when I first saw her in Invicta several years back. The striking was never in question. It was can she put together everything else. For her to beat Valentina Shevchenko by submission is freaking absurd.

Realised that the two longest UFC Women's Championship reigns: UFC Flyweight Champion Valentina Shevchenko and UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion Amanda Nunes both ended by rear naked chokes, Alexa Grasso on Shevchenko and Julianna Pena to Nunes. Both big upsets as well.

Damn, I never thought Valentina was ever losing that title. That's eight defenses. I think that's the closest anyone ever came to matching Anderson Silva's middleweight title run.

Jon Jones joins Randy Couture and Daniel Cormier as the only men to win the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship and UFC Heavyweight Championship.

I don't like his chances regardless to be honest.  I had questions about Jones because he'd been gone so long but he's just on a different level.

Hate to look past Stipe, but here is my pipe dream: This is gonna end like the Ali and Frazier heavyweight title controversy where they had a tournament for Ali's titles once he was stripped of his titles and Frazier ended up fighting and beating the eventual winner, Jimmy Ellis. Once Ali came back and had an adequate tuneup against Jerry Quarry, we got the Fight of the Century versus Joe Frazier to prove who the legit heavyweight champion was. 

The end game has to be Jon Jones vs. Francis Ngannou. There is going to be too much money to turn down for any party.
