Volkanovski vs Evloev in Australia around August. Lopes vs Rodriguez in Guadalajara.

I think #UFC314 was a great night for the UFC in terms of the results setting up big things for the future.

Volk did it. Defied all the statistics. Had to dig deep to do it as well.

'The Great' is incredibly fitting.

Regardless of how this goes in the final round, it is CRAZY how good a "not as good as he was" Alexander Volkanovski still is.

Proceeded to maul him for the third round finish.

Lightweight division, your plans just went out the window. Paddy Pimblett is in the MIX.

My word, Paddy just manhandled Michael Chandler. A real sentence I just typed. WILD.

Didn't expect Jean Silva to sub him. Made it look easy too. When that guy fights, we all win.

Woah! Alright, Dominick Reyes is properly back. First round finish over Krylov. One shot.

That is crazy. Dan Ige seemingly on his way to winning but that stoppage is bad. Very bad.

I guess if it doesn't work, it isn't cheating. Big ol fence grab from Yan there who got taken down regardless.

Oh man. I know Elkins is known for weathering damage but he is not recovering here.

Marco Tulio has arrived. Brazil, you might have another one. Best he has looked to date against Gore. What a finish.

Impressive submission win for Nora Cornolle. Lost the first round after going for a sub attempt but got it in the second.

Got to iron out those weight misses.

Sean Brady dominates and submits Leon Edwards in the 4th round. Huge win and performance as he becomes the first man to finish 'Rocky'.

Tough to see where the former champ goes from here.

Been relatively quite on here tonight as I'm working away. You know where to get the event coverage.

Jordan Vucenic makes it out of a very tough opening round against Chris Duncan. Got dropped heavy early on, survived off of his back.

Surprise surprise, Kavanagh vs Dos Santos has been great thus far. Massive second round for Lone'er there.

Wow, what a turnaround from Shauna Bannon. Gets dropped with a huge head kick and then gets the armbar submission.

Fight came alive in the blink of an eye.

Caolan Loughran wins a split decision. Very close fight, I thought Fletcher might have clinched it right at the end.

Very good win for the Irishman regardless.

1-1 heading into the third. Fletcher did a good job of capitalizing on the backpack despite not being able to get a significant submission threat going.

Close fight and all to play for between Fletcher and Loughran.

Think I'd lean towards Fletcher. Good matchup though

Nathan Fletcher vs Caolan Loughran. Both barely passed each other by in the pro ranks at Cage Warriors.

Fought back in 2018 in amateurs where Fletcher won a unanimous decision.

Much slower third round from Fernandes but he still dropped him with another leg kick. The opposite leg too.

Much better third from Guram but he still looked a bit hesitant, gave the Brazilian space and time to pick his shots and move.

Big upset win. #UFCLondon

Fernandes drops Kutateladze with a leg kick. Been a while since we saw that it feels like.

One-way traffic for the Brazilian and it feels like a finish might come at any moment.

Rounds 3 and 5 were very close. I think it might go to Alex Pereira but no complaints either way.

Good response from Alex in the third. Think he took 1 and 3. Fighting Pereira really is like fighting a final boss.

Even when Ankalaev's doing well, it feels like he has to be perfect to try and get a result.

Back-to-back wins for two Brazilian powerhouses. Santos vs Marshall scorecard aside, a very fun card through four fights thus far.
