Joe Rogan is one to use extreme hyperbole. But that was the greatest fight I've ever seen. Holy f***ing shit. Sanchez should have gone for the TKO when he knocked Melendez down. Great shit.

I'm hoping that Nelson has a gameplan that isn't just spending the entire fight trying to connect that overhand right.

Absolute war...don't see how 30-27 happened with the judges. 29-28 for Melendez makes sense...heck of a battle. I can understand it, he got the knockdown but spent the rest of the round getting picked apart. I agree with that.

I say Cormeir by decision. If he couldn't knock out Frank Mir (and everyone who has beaten Mir has knocked him out) he sure as hell ain't knocking out Nelson.

Nelson doesn't have a chance. He's gassed after 1. Cormier is just too accomplished.

If you're badly losing the fight and not hitting the other guy, why would you taunt?

So, does Dana fires Roy Nelson now. I mean, a two fight loss streak has been enough for people he doesn't like.

I think Roy is gone. Dana has been waiting for an excuse.
