Brooks..UFC 228

Roberto Sanchez on the Fight Pass part of the card.  Sanchez is 8-1 (1-1 in UFC), with a solid submission game.  Tough fight to take on short notice for Brooks, so hopefully his team saw some advantages a wrestler could have over Sanchez in the grappling department.  Brooks is on a two fight slide, which has been enough for the UFC to drop people in the past.  Hope he can find his way back in the win column in this one.

Brooks in another controversial decision ending.  It wasn’t a very exciting fight but he seemed to completely control the 2nd and 3rd round of the fight.  Despite that the judges somehow came up with a split decision.  Lucky this time Brooks was on the winning end of that call.    Back in the win column and hopefully taking the short notice win will help him get a chance quality fight in the future.

Brooks becomes one of the casualties of the UFC dropping the 125 division.  He was cut this week by the UFC.  I’m guessing several of the fighters will be picked up by ONE or maybe Bellator. 

The current champ Cejudo is fighting up at 135 for the title and reguardless of the outcome will remain there.  The former champ Johnson has moved to fight in ONE.
