  1. And on the holding call, the worst part of it was the refs barely threw any flags all game only to decide the game on a gift. Imagine if this was Brady getting the calls Mahomes has vs the Bengals and now that. Utter Joke. Being a Broncos fan there's nothing worse than the Chiefs winning yet again

  2. I want you to remember couple of things. Hernandez almost put away Billy Q. And Billy Q is in much better shape than Miller is. I honestly do believe the power hits are going to be an issue for Miller. If you look at some of the previous fights, miller has been stunned before by power hits. And luckily recovered. I just don’t know if he will be able to recover from Hernandez power hits. Than again, Hernandez has struggled against older fighters. I’m a firm believer there is a reason why the line has moved “FAVORING” Hernandez. I think Hernandez MUST win this. And maybe force Miller to retire. That’s just my take on it. I’m playing a parlay. But, don’t know if I would be willing to put Hernandez in it. Just too risky. I think millers path to victory is submission, but Hernandez I think is just too strong.

  3. I hope white and black people take this card as much of a personal affront as I took that horrible Korean heavy card two weeks ago bleaugh. What is this the "Well, At Least He Beat Ike Villenueva Festival"? This card is like something you would have seen held at the Armory in Albany, New York by the WWE in 1986, a bunch of rubbish filler topped off with a squash match for gullible rubes who literally have nothing better to do (me!). Blanchfield is good but she isn't ready for Andrade. Going from the Meatball to the Meat Grinder. The Performance of the Night 50K check should be raffled off to someone who sat through this travesty from beginning to end.

    The "Stormtrooper"? Is Pogues going for the Nazi reference or the faceless jobber in plastic hot pants reference?

    I enjoyed the breakdown of the main event where both of you guys are like "here are some ways that Blanchfield could win . . . ah forget it."

  4. I love how you break down every fight, no matter what. Even if some days it feels more like work than others.
    Even with all the original bouts (Sandhagen vs Chito not withstanding) I would still give this card a C. Joe Solecki and GM3 may not have added a lot of divisional stakes, but at least some names and entertainment.

  5. I hate ragging on cards before they happen but this card checks all the wrong boxes on paper:

    ✅ Almost no divisional relevance except main event
    ✅ Dana White’s Saturday Night Contender Series
    ✅Obligatory Heavyweight Slobberknocker
    ✅ Potentially catastrophic weight miss
    ✅ Aging fighter vs one of the lowest level guys in the division

    Great stuff as always guys in turning a poor card into an entertaining preview.
