Hard fought but not thrilling or anything. On to the awesome portion of the card now. Let's go Ebersole. Hoping this fight is going to be really close as I expect it to be rather than what the odds suggest, definitely like Ebersole at better than +200. I hope he's come to wrestle and ground and pound not cartwheel kick
lol at Howard being pissed at the decision how can that ever be anything but close and he was so inactive in R3 it's not like he was going nuts to get the win
Up something like 1.5u for the card now, one parlay's dead, one hasn't started yet and one is alive and with the Ebersole leg down
No idea who won r1, Thompson looked to land cleaner in r2 though. He reminds me a lot of a slightly less polished Machida. Last 30 secs was pretty exciting

I think he's a bit more active than machida as well
Last couple mins of r3 was great, Thompson clearly took r2/3 so either 29-28 or 30-27 depending on r1. That wheel kick with 30 secs left would have decapitated Cote if it landed
Fills out the first of 3 legs in my 1.2u to win 1.2u parlay just need Masvidal and Cruz.
Also 2/6 legs into my remaining 6-fight parlay w Masvidal Cruz Kennedy and Alvarez left
Thompson should have got more aggressive after rocking Cote. Finishing a guy like Cote would have brought him up the ranking a bit faster than this dec.
Feel when you are outside if top 10 you should be taking more risks to get the finish.
Looks pretty straightforward so far. Parlay looking good. Assuming nothing ridiculous happens, very happy to effectively have 1.2u Cruz at +101 going into the next fight
