I figured that at least one judge was stoned enough to score 1 and 3 for Edgar. Thought more would give him round 1 since Max wasn't very active in it. Luckily there was only one stoner out of the 3.

This is an insult to Byrd. She has a strict criteria for judging fights. In order, you win or lose rounds by being:
Black
Latino
White
Asian (an Asian can only win on her scorecard if fighting another Asian)
It's unclear where Italians and Pacific Islanders fit under her scoring system, so let's not make assumptions.

Were there any upsets?
Rogans commentary on the Cyborg fight was beyond bad. If I'd have been listening rather than watching I'd have thought Spencer was winning, rather than being the human punching bag that she was. Rogan questioning her cardio, she looked like she could go another 2 easily after the 3rd whereas Spencer was just trying to survive to the final bell. Spencers a tough girl, but she got her arse kicked.
Cyborg is now out of contract, it makes me wonder if Dana has had a word with Joe to down play her.

In his defense Cyborg didn't look as Dominant as we have seen her.
But coming off being "Starched" who would.
Doesn't mean Spencer was great.
She did land clean step in elbows I rather enjoyed but other than taking blows to the face (giggity) she didn't do much more.
Considering Whites comments
Cyborg may be in the up and out.
Let's see if the Nunes rematch happens tho.

She wasn't at her best, but it was still a one sided fight. If that was a 5 round fight Cyborg would have finished it in the 4th, Spencer had nothing to left give.
I agree though, it looks to me as though she is on the way out. Dana giving it the big talk about making it Nunes v Cyborg next, but he knows they are low balling her in contract negotiations and she won't sign. Of course when she leaves Dana will be saying "because she was scared to fight Nunes".
I can see Bellator offering her decent money - she's probably the no.1 free agent in MMA right now.
Rogan has been getting a lot of shit for his commentary for years now, I've always liked him though. But just lately he seems to be getting much worse.... it might be time for Brendan Schaub to give him 'The Talk', live on JRE podcast.
