Good card in my eyes. I am a fan of both fly weights. Hope Arlovski can get the win and rematch Werdum. Am curious to see how Rumble does. Rooting for Pearson.

Shame that Riggs/Stallings ended in a DQ.
Also, the other two fights so far have been splits. This could be a long, rough night.

They should start calling these fight nights Rousey commercials plus a little action sprinkled in. It isn't a secret that Mighty Mouse doesn't get recognition he deserves.
Why not use this night and time to focus on commercials for him and showcasing him in new light

I'm just watching it for Arlovski and Mir, not a fan of Johnson. Dana has got to be rooting for Dodson, so they can actually sell ppv's at flyweight.

He's not an easy guy to market. Can't push him as a KO artist, pushing him as a 5 Round Machine doesn't really help his cause, he doesn't have the personality to push the charisma angle. And he's 5'3, which isn't helping a thing. I honestly have no idea how I'd market him either, other then saying he's one of the best in the world and hope for the best, which is basically what they've done this far. He can't even draw on free TV half the time, so I'm really at a loss on how to push the guy. And I like DJ |

Sadly, just like in wrestling a few only get "over" by being just a wrestler. Same applies in MMA, Mighty Mouse has proven himself over and over in being a great fighter but because he doesn't have "it" he's the forgotten champ. |

They put him on Conan or Jimmy Kimmel and it gets uncomfortable. Maybe it's a size thing too, Cain is the most boring human being ever but he's bigger and popular. Mighty Mouse should be more aggressive into trying to get fans to buy his fights. He shouldn't call them morons or say that they should buy wwe ppvs if they think he's boring.

You'd have to pay me to care about Mighty Mouse, or the flyweight division in general. It's like midget fights, it's weird. They look like seventh graders most of the time. No one needs to see that.

Arlovski and Mir both look old and slow, and would get clowned by any top 5 heavyweight.

Kind of disappointing fight considering I thought they would both throw caution into the wind. Mir has been looking old for a min and worst Arlovski has looked since his return.

So Dana is endorsing what looks like FX own Viking version of Game of Thrones?

IDC man, Might Mouse might not be for everybody but I find him damn entertaining in fights and it's a shame he won't ever get his due as a great champ. He made Dodson look ordinary.

Demetrious Johnson keeps on winning, and I keep on not caring. Not even a little.
