Beaten, battered, cornered and blind in both eyes ... Ilia STILL shoulder rolls, dips and pivots flawlessly like he's shadowboxing in an empty gym.

This was such a cool, sneaky throw by Nate. But it shows the weakness of a lot of judo/Greco-style throws in MMA: they’re built for the launch, not the landing. Perry easily scrambled on top.

Lost in the barrage of Tommy McMillen strikes he ate, Alberto Montes hit a sweet inside leg kick that squared McMillen's stance and made his head drop enough to land a knee. Even pivoted away from the counter after.

DC on Steveson, "What's most impressive is just Gable's willingness to fight. One thing wrestlers generally struggle with is getting hit, being inside of the fire. This kid does seem to be worried or afraid to step into the fire and fight." This is 1000% correct. All of it.

Lost in Charles Oliveira’s dominant performance: he's the first fighter to actually get the better of Max Holloway after the trademark “point to the canvas” moment.

Garza's reversal was perfectly timed. Not for any technical reason. Just because it saved us from a deep dive conversation between Rogan and DC about the pluses and minuses of hairy legs in MMA.

Really nice strike to single leg sequence shelf slam by Charles Jourdain against Jean Silva. But I never noticed the sneaky knee mid move. You could hear it.

Josh Hokit's striking is hilarious but he was well prepared for Blaydes' jab. Came over the top with a right several times. Hurt him twice.

No surprise Dr. David Martinez did his homework. The southpaw head kick is Chito's best weapon. KO'd Dominick Cruz with it. So Martinez was prepared with a catch and sweep twice. Easy, low energy TD and it made Chito wary of throwing his head kick.

Of all of Ilia Topuria’s performances, the Ryan Hall fight might low-key be his most impressive. He’s the only guy who didn’t look completely befuddled or like it was his first day of jiu-jitsu.

Props to Herb Dean for not stopping this early. Rodrigues was obviously hurt but he was fighting back and his eyes were clear.

Listen to two of MMA’s best coaches, Eric Nicksick and Mike Brown, play cat and mouse from opposite corners: Nicksick: “He’s leading big left hook… couple options now.” Brown: “Lead with the back hand. Lead with the right. Careful leading with the hook.”

I’m getting WAYYYY ahead of myself, but Petr Yan vs. Ethyn Ewing feels like the kind of fight that would rewrite the rule book for boxing in MMA.

A misconception about Ilia Topuria is that he's wide open for head kicks because Jai Herbert dropped him. But its opposite. His high guard, perfect positioning and vision keep him safe. But he NEVER counters them. Full video coming later.

Bo Nickal asked Daniel Cormier what to expect in his UFC debut. Maybe its just the wrestler in me, but DC's answer gave me goosebumps. DC is every wrestler-turned-fighter's big brother. True coach.

This is the type of sequence from Tatsuro Taira that gets me all hot and bothered at his potential: -Reactive single -Puts in the hook -Pushes off the wall -Secures body triangle The whole sequence took 15 seconds. Against a former title challenger. He was 24 at the time.

Islam Makhachev went 0-6 on open mat takedown attempts in the first four rounds against Dustin Poirier. He went 3-3 against the wall. Any gameplan for Islam has to include staying off the cage. #UFC330
