I'm working so only have it on a second monitor but holy hell, what a scrap between McMillen and Mgoyan. Absolute banger start to finish and a crazy comeback for Tommy McMillen after an 8-10 first round. #DWCS

Fluffy just dogwalked a SERIOUSLY good grappler in Roman Dolidze.
Made him so desperate and tired with the rides he got a point taken for grabbing the glove AS he was being finished. Wow. #UFCVegas109
