00:00 Intro 5:48 Dvalishvili vs Yan 2 36:15 Pantoja vs Van 57:50 Cejudo vs Talbott

Arman Tsarukyan and Kyoji Horiguchi both reestablished themselves as top contenders. Ian Garry reestablished himself as the guy who sort of makes other middleweights look mediocre, sometimes.

00:00 Intro 5:07 Makhachev vs Della Maddalena 28:22 Shevchenko vs Zhang 51:13 Tsarukyan vs Hooker

Why has Islam Makhachev chosen this moment to go up to 170? Is he at the end of his prime? Or maybe it's just because Jack Della Maddalena SUCKS.
