Tonight’s fight card got off to a rocky start after several fight cancellations and last-minute changes. However, there was still plenty of action to go around and the main card certainly did not disappoint. Here’s how pros reacted to UFC Vegas 33.

Damn good performance from Sean Strickland #UFCVegas33

I really didn’t think this fight would be as one-sided as it’s been going. Strickland has landed and has positioned himself for a huge fight after this big win. #UFCVegas33

Where in the hell did this version @SStricklandMMA come from. Great fight and pressure from that young man in the biggest spot of his career! #ufcfightnight

Uriah still makes the same mistakes from years ago that causes him to loss & never able to make an adjustment. It’s so simple too. Strickland has a nasty side jab, walks forward and throws ! Good fight overall. Well good fight for Strickland #UFCVegas33
