Summary
On the heels of last week’s stinker between Tallison Teixeira and Tai Tuivasa at UFC 325, this weekend brought us Rizvan Kuniev vs. Jailton Almeida and, wow, holy shit did it absolutely suck. Not to beat a dead horse here but: Heavyweight. Still shitty after all these years, huh? In fact, we have to ask the question: Is the heavyweight division shittier now than it has ever been? That’s a scary thought, but one that deserves some of our attention. Plus, the weekend’s Fight Night might have been dogshit, but Mario Bautista looked great in the main event. Plus, lo, there was despair across the land, as the Dark Lord Ben Rothwell lost his BKFC heavyweight title to Andrei Arlovski. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
