Is tonight the greatest moment in Dominick Cruz's life?

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.
that's bad. but it's real bad cause kimbo sounds so tired.

No, but it is ran by Jesse Finney, the guy that came up with and convinced the athletic commission to let Kimbo vs Ken shamrock happen

So I guess tomorrow's Invicta card lost a couple fights due to injuries a while back, and then another a couple days ago and one more today right before weigh-ins. They're down to just seven fights on the card. No idea if it's still starting at 9PM ET as originally planned, but it's on Fight Pass tomorrow night.

Surprise!

quote:

COSTA MESA, Calif. -- The conversation about Cris Cyborg ever going down to 135 pounds can officially be put to rest.

Cyborg told MMA Fighting on Thursday that she no longer has any plans to drop to women's bantamweight. The Brazilian knockout artist cited health reasons, the inability to use IVs and the understanding that she would be a depleted version of herself at that weight.

"No more 135," Cyborg said. "Superfight? Yeah. I think that's fair. Somebody can go up a little bit, I'll go down a little bit."

Much like Renan Barao, Edian Gomes was defeated by a tub in the lead up to Invicta FC 15.

Invicta fights are often surprisingly decent and occasionally horrendously bad.

Megan Anderson is a cool fighter but I don't think she can make 135 in the UFC.

This seems like a can fight for Angela Hill for her to get some confidence but maybe I'm wrong.

I missed the alleged tap that happened but apparently Lacey was convinced it happened. Pretty sure that wasn't a tap.

Perhaps a crafty use of the Brazilian fake tap out there

I don't think she tapped, one tap is not a tap, it could be just some weird hand thing. It has to be 3+ unmistakable taps. If she let go because of that, too bad.

Lacey Shuckman is far too game and is just getting her face destroyed.

Having pink hair dye seems to be a very bad idea in an MMA fight that could be decided by judges.

Mizuki looks like a good prospect for the UFC especially since she's only like 21.
