Last night provided a very entertaining night of fights.

In a short back-and-forth with UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley in response, Rogan said there was little choice in playing the replay after Overeem’s comments.
It was a straight left that dumped Miocic, but he can be forgiven.
“There’s one thing I can say about the fight”. The referee should have considered the move a verbal submission or simply allowed the fight to continue.
CM Punk’s first MMA fight will come at UFC 203 against Mickey Gall. Velasquez put a dominant performance at UFC 200 when he knocked out Travis Browne.
JDS holds a decision victory over Miocic.
According to the report, Overeem was one of five fighters given an indefinite suspension pending further medical testing. During the last period Alistair won four victories in a row over Struve, Nelson dos Santos and Orlovsky. In doing so, Werdum showed some aggressive striking and flashy maneuvers.
However, Dutchman Overeem came out of the blocks early to defy the odds and silence the crowd, knocking his opponent to the mat early with a ferocious left hook. “I feel like I am the better fighter, but not today … but he clearly tapped”. The main card airs live on PPV at 10PM ET. Gall then took his time, transitioning from side control, into full mount and then eventually taking his back.
Mickey Gall defeated CM Punk via submission to rear-naked choke in Round 1.
Coach Marcus Marinelli said 10 days before the fight his fighter was “10 to 15 percent” better than he was for Werdum.
On Sept. 10 at The Q, he proved he has the staying power to carry the title of “Baddest Man on the Planet”.
Rivera must get ophthalmological clearance after suffering an eye poke and claiming to have no vision in his right eye after a unanimous decision win over Urijah Faber. It was a fight that was fairly disappointing if you’re a Faber fan as he looked sluggish, tentative, and quite boring. The bantamweight division is filling up with hot prospects, so who will be next for this newest addition to the bantamweight elite. Having only lost one fight in his entire MMA career, Rivera could pose a serious threat to the former Bantamweight title challenger. “I popped out, he didn’t like it, and then he gave me the opportunity to grab his leg, so I followed him and right when I got on top of him, game over”. It depends on how you handle it.
Jessica Andrade is a -145 favorite against -115 underdog Joanne Calderwood in the women’s strawweight matchup that opens the UFC 203 main card. Especially when the stakes are so high.
