Man, Donald Cerrone has been on a roll, impressive roll.

Tyson Griffin couldn't make weight, was fined part of his pay, and KO'd in the first - bad few days.

A sad day for MMA with the retirement of two greats, BJ Penn & Mirko Cro Cop. They gave a lot to MMA over the years, they will be missed

My picks all materialised in the decisions - 5-0 baby! Haha.

Hioki, though, got a very lucky split decision. I liked the Jorgensen - Curran fight; very good ground grappling battle at times. Big Country leaned up, which can only be of benefit to him, and he did the job against Mirko. I like both fighters, and sad to see Mirko leave the cage (if it is the last time). Diaz was impressive. He's getting GSP in February now, should be big threat to the belt. And, again, sad to see BJ hang up the gloves (if it is the last time). Both Mirko and BJ gave alot to MMA, and achieved alot; two greats.
