The Korean Superboy's comeback needs to be studied. From an eight-year, four-fight winless streak to three consecutive knockouts. What a resurgence for Doo Ho Choi #UFCVegas117

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

Just wrapped up a great chat with @JohnCena. Very grateful for his time and enthusiasm. Keep an eye out for that on @CBSSports HQ

Sean Strickland has cashed as an underdog against
✅ Khamzat Chimaev
✅ Israel Adesanya
✅ Nassourdine Imavov
✅ Anthony Hernandez
✅ Brendan Allen
#UFC328

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

@existentialkush I hear you, but that nose break didn't happen in Round 5. I was specifically talking about that round. If fighters land (or don't land) an equal number of immediately impactful strikes, then judges weigh cumulative. In that case, Strickland outstruck Chimaev numerically

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

48-47 Sean Strickland. Chimaev just didn't land enough strikes in Round 5. A wild number of momentum swings in this one #UFC328

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

@existentialkush What did Chimaev land of significance?

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

2-2 heading into the final round. It's anyone's fight, but momentum is with the champ #UFC328

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

Sean Strickland's coach warned him not to blow his nose. They might be concerned that he broke his nose #UFC328

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

19-19 after Round 2. Khamzat looks shockingly fatigued after one round. We have a fight on our hands! #UFC328

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

10-9 Khamzat. Dominance on the ground, but no damage #UFC328

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

I have mixed feelings about that stoppage. On one hand, that's a good stoppage in most cases. On the other hand, he arguably survived worse earlier in the fight #UFC328

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

@aaronbronsteter Spoiler: They won't

[Aaron Bronsteter @aaronbronsteter]

Just spoke to Sean Brady who told me that he was contacted earlier today by the UFC in regards to the irregular line movement in the direction of his opponent.

He was surprised by the call, assured them that he was okay and that he was planning to dominate Buckley.

He told me that aside from a small cut that he received four weeks ago, that he was totally healthy going into the fight.

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

How on Earth has Tatsuro Taira worked his way back into his fight? This dude's toughness is otherworldly #UFC328

[Shakiel Mahjouri @Shak_Fu]

Flyweight has been missing a fighter like Joshua Van. He's got the potential to seriously elevate the division with these performances #UFC328
