Georges St-Pierre has opened up about the most humiliating experience of his career.

Matt Serra believes Diego Sanchez could use better advice in his corner. Much has been made about Sanchez’s camp situation after leaving Jackson-Wink MMA. The “Nightmare” was thought of to be a mainstay at the popular gym in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Former UFC welterweight champion Matt Serra is of the belief that Dominick Reyes should’ve gotten the nod over Jon Jones. There’s no denying that Jones vs. Reyes was a close encounter.

After five rounds of action, Jones was awarded the unanimous decision victory.

He’s been finished in two of those defeats.

Darren Till could be in for a rebirth at 185 pounds. At least that’s what Matt Serra believes. Till was in action at UFC 244 against Kelvin Gastelum. With a historic event inside Madison Square Garden in New York City, many felt that Till would crumble under pressure. “The Gorilla” proved that despite coming off two stoppage losses, he is far from being damaged goods. He defeated Gastelum via split decision in his first middleweight bout under the UFC banner.

Chris Taylor - March 14, 2016

“Not being a cock, but look at Conor. All the shit you talked, take a nap, man. It’s not like your arm was about to break. I understand you want your career and if it was a kneebar, you’ll be out for six months, but dude, if worst comes to worst, you’ll think you’re in your bedroom. That’s it. You’ll wake up like, ‘WTF,’ but everything will be alright. “I consider the Diaz brothers friends. They’re like extended family, them being under Cesar and me being under Renzo, we’ve always had mutual respect. They’re such respectful guys. People don’t know that about them, but they really are. You know what’s not around anymore? There’s no code anymore. There’s no loyalty. They’re good guys, they’ve got a f*cking code, and they’re warriors, man.”
