There were actually some truly quality matches hidden in all the fun everyone is talking about. Despite what UFC nerds will say, there's talent in that organization.
Erson was quality, Jiri was great even with injury, Moldovsky looks solid and he'll grow into a solid fighter, Bajor was impressive but will need to improve some aspects, Aliakbari is a fucking monster, Murata dominated and is a real prospect, and the only thing that ever stops Bennett from being great is his lack of discipline and focus.
My buddy and I are headed to the 29th/31st shows in Japan to help out the Aliakbari camp and generally help out. We had the UFC on tape delay to switch over to for downtime at Rizin.... switched over 2-3 times and were thoroughly focused on our phones while UFC was on. Yes, the guys are great in that league, but they're also mostly trying not to lose and the whole thing lacks entertainment value 70% of the time... and that's from guys who work in the industry and support all fighters.
