Now this is what we want

 

[svmr_db]

Lol imagine Tuivasa wins and jumps the queue ahead of Jones / Stipe to fight for the HW belt <45><45>

 

[Fight Professor]

Black Beast wins. Hardy was able to land a punch on Tai easily.

 

[Gio]

What a treat for the fans. This is gonna be awesome! Can't wait

 

[TRUS8888]

Exactly the kind of fight Lewis always wins.

 

[sdpdude9]

Awesome. That card really needed some help.

 

[thewhiterooster]

Jairzinho was the logical next step for Tai, a step he almost certainly would not have passed, not sure why the UFC is putting him in this spot.

Tai should probably not even be ranked let alone fighting the #3 HW. Tai has losses to Blagoy Ivanov (#15) and Serghei Spivac (who was #15 when Tai fought on 12/11).

Meanwhile undefeated and still unranked Alexander Romanov (15-0) is fighting his fifth consecutive unranked opponent a week after this event takes place.

Doubted Tai against Sakai, not doing that again. Dude has developed some composure that he just didn't have before.

I bet someone gets finished via strikes

Wow. This is gonna be impossible for me to root for. I love both guys.

This is a huge opportunity for Tai tho.

Yeah he looked unrecognizably sharp against Sakai.
