Daley is off the card, cut too much weight and got pulled

Just caught Saad Awad v Brennan Ward slick finish. Sad the Daley fight got pulled but at least the main event is still on and a damn good one

I really like Davis and would like to see him do big things but I think McGeary will keep that win streak going. I hope Phil Davis wins tho.

e: Davis doing good here but McGeary still dangerous.

Haha awesome Davis gets it done. Alliance is one of the best gyms, I thought McGeary had something up his sleeve never seen before. Davis proved he can be UFC champ still, good fight.

Great fights until the main event, even the prelims had finishes.

Davis dominated him, but that was boring. You can't force someone to go for a finish, but Davis got to mount so easy and then didn't finish him after getting there most rounds.

Liam got that heel hook from full mount to look out for.

Fight went how I expected, except I didn't expect Phil to dominate on the ground so much, and McGeary to be so active and have such an active, open guard.

I dont know about that. He had every opportunity to get a title shot in the UFC and lost when he was a fight away from a shot (against Evans and Rumble). McGeary was a great win but I thought he lost to King Mo earlier this year.

Dont get me wrong. I think Davis is a great talent but I doubt that he would have the skillset to beat the top level of UFC LHWs (Jones, Cormier, Rumble)

I agree obviously but he doesnt necessarily have to beat those guys to become UFC champ. Davis is still relatively young at 32, there's still plenty of years. Cormier will likely retire soon, JBJ will eventually move to HW and Rumble would probably too. Divisions can shake up in any way.

Davis is still a top tier fighter- years back if it were said Bisping and Woodley would become champs and beat guys like Silva, Rockhold, and Lawler, Condit most wouldn't agree but it happened.

At this point he has most upside for a LHW fighter outside of the UFC.
