The UFC always sign some interesting new talent for Abu Dhabi cards and this is no exception. There's a lot of what ifs on this card, guys who have kicked ass and taken names on the regionals, will it translate to the UFC?

But the card lacks many guaranteed bangers. There is a good version of basically every fight here, a fun version it's just there is a lot of...not great versions. We'll see which way the fights break.

Let's rack em up and break em down.

Father time reminded us that he comes for us all in the Main and Co-Main. Tommy McMillen had a burner of a fight that I'll be honest I'm not sure re-assured me of much beyond yes he can go 3 rounds at a breakneck pace. Fatima Kline dominates and Chase Hooper sends Mitch Ramirez packing.

2 Fighters look to turn back the clock. A former champ looks to get rolling again, some cool prospects and a pair of squash fights.

Conor is back......maybe? possibly? Steroids ahoy?

The rest of the card is quite good. I just wish I didn't have to deal with the silliness the main event brings.

We travel from the Apex to Baku for a travel card loaded with international talent and pretty good fighters. Not necessarily the biggest impact but more just a hopeful showcase for the regional talent.

Also RIP Horiguchi's title hopes. Shattered by Mr. Kape.

We change venues from the White House to the Apex. Not sure there is more a contrast possible really for a rematch from the Peak of Rizin FC, Kape vs Horiguchi II. Kape is out for revenge as very early in his career he took the L in this matchup and now at 32 years old and probably the best version of himself.........is it time to take the equalizer?

The rest of the card is mostly filler, not bad fights to be clear, they mostly make sense, at least one fighter is of interest and some of them should be fun. Just not really needle movers.

The UFC Fight and Sportswash fest is over and there is good and bad.

The good was the fights, violent, finish heavy and a classic main event. And faint praise but the overhanded Trump glazing wasn't as bad as I expected.

The downside was commentary was just bad. Lots of the glazing of the event to make it special but it's just outside at a unique venue but nothing really comes across in terms of atmosphere. And while there was less glazing than I expected it's still a sportwashing affair behind a paywall.

Let's see what we learned about the fighters.

The UFC takes a cannonball into the Sports Washing pool. It's time to glaze the President with a card packed with Sizzle, sexy looking fights at first glance. But not actual technical intrigue. Which I suppose makes sense given the nature of the card.

2 title fights, a heavyweight class, Sean O'Malley and of course American heros Bo Nickal and Michael Chandler.
