John Pollock runs through the UFC 220 and Bellator 192 cards from Saturday night.
The UFC card from Boston featured Stipe Miocic defending the UFC heavyweight title against Francis Ngannou and UFC light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier defending against Volkan Oezdemir.
On the Bellator side, the Paramount Network’s launch featured Chael Sonnen vs. Quinton “Rampage” Jackson in the first round of the Heavyweight Grand Prix and Douglas Lima vs. Rory MacDonald for the welterweight title.
Pollock goes through all the night’s fights, the stars of the respective shows, notes from the shows, and more!
Rory has taken so much damage in his career it makes you worry about his longevity considering he’s still under 30.
Stipe Miocic vs Dana White might end up being what gets Stipe over as a legitimate star in the UFC. When he ripped that title out of Dana’s hands and gave it to his coach after beating Dana’s #1 prospect, it reminded me of an Austin/McMahon Esque angle. Watch the Stipe Stunner.
Daniel Cormier is a class act and a wonderful ambassador of the sport. I wouldn’t mind him becoming a full time commentator once 2018 rolls to a close.
It’s crazy how after a 21 year, 47 fight career, Chael Sonnen is still undefeated. True greatness.
