Northcutt had a stunning debut at UFC 192 with a first round TKO of Francisco Trevino. After the fight, Northcutt moved to Toronto to train at the Tri-Star Gym.

Payout Perspective:

The addition of Northcutt adds some interest to the Fight Pass card which is seeking to beef up its programming. Northcutt and VanZant are being groomed to be the next “needle movers” for the sport and in my opinion putting them on the same card is a smart move. Certainly, there can be marketing behind the young fighters at the top of this card which will serve as the “opening act” for Aldo-McGregor on December 12^th in Vegas for UFC 194.

Hunt had his opportunity to help his cause but froze in his biggest moment

In a couple months when the Court rules against Hunt will be blaming the Judges for being so unfair to him because it’s never his fault.

Hunt got is little shot in at Williams with the allegation that they were following him. An argument that could not be discussed as a legal claim on appeal.

#Seahawks facility still without power. No hot water for the players as well. Generators doing what they can. Practice at the facility today but might be moved to Lumen Field tomorrow. Prep for a big game against the #AZCardinals continues.

May not be related but brings to mind, WWE submitted a letter in March opposing a CT House bill that would repeal the state's film & TV tax credit program, which WWE (and many others like ESPN and NBCU) benefit from each year. WWE got $15M from the program last year.
