I'm rooting for Bruno Silva.

 

[TeamVamos]

Slightly surprised to see Max/Song get bumped to co-main perhaps UFC is trying to push Song as they couldn't possibly be pushing Griffin. I would've given Tai or Dawson fight the nod

What's everyone thinking, are the Buys couple going 2-0 tonight?

Nah you can't give it to Tai, his opponent got bombed out in less than a round on the Contender Series, you can't give a co-main to a guy like that lol.

Probably 1-1 I think Jp will lose

 

[Kamais_Ookin]

grant dawson fight shoulda been co main imo, but it's w/e

 

[mkess101]

His fingers were mostly up there, the thumb still got the eye a bit.

 

[Kamais_Ookin]

foul city to start the day, might get a dq win for buys soon

 

[Sono07]

Silva coming out dirty

 

[Sono07]

Didn't realize Cejudo was corning not a bad sign for Silva. Pitbull does have a questionable gastank though.

 

[PuertoRican]

Remember, Cheyanne is in JP's corner. If he loses, it might affect her in her fight.

 

[mkess101]

Silva rd 1.

 

[Dingaling]

This buys dude is ready to go home

 

[Sono07]

Remember, Cheyanne is in JP's corner. If he loses, it might affect her in her fight.

I've been thinking that. Might be a Montana and Mark DLR deal where she wears the pants and still shows up.

 

[PuertoRican]

Goodnight, Mr. Buys.

 

[Broe.]

lol how bad is buys, all my money is on Conejo next.

 

[DonQ94]

Nice collective fade of Buys guys, Cash that moneyy.

Remember, Cheyanne is in JP's corner. If he loses, it might affect her in her fight.

Now that Cheyanne watched her husband get his shit pushed in, you might want to reconsider your bet on her.
