Sijara Eubanks feels like an athlete for first time in 2 years
Eubanks, who is 5-0 in the UFC at flyweight, but suffered weight cutting issues in two fights, returns to bantamweight tonight vs. Aspen Ladd: "Ali (Abdelaziz, manager] came back and asked me about Aspen. I kinda felt like it was a perfect storm. My last fight at ’35, my last loss — a chance to sort of kill two birds when with one stone — so I was really pumped to hear her name come up and to see that contract come through. ... I don’t plan on making that cut again anytime soon. This is my home. I’ve got goals to be UFC champion, so I’m not going to get to that belt by jumping around weight classes a bunch. So now that’s I’m here, I’m comfortable. I feel like an athlete for the first time in two years, so I’m excited to really be explosive and powerful. ... Everybody evolves between fights, but the type of growth I’ve had in the last two years feels really exponential. I’m really excited to show it, to show the world what I can do.” h/t MMA Fighting

Kevin Lee: 165-pound division will come and there's no downside
“I think it is inevitable. I think everyone looks at it the same way. There is no sense it doesn’t happen as there is so much talent at both these divisions at 155 and 170. It is only a matter of time. I was one of the first to bark about it. Now other people are letting their voices be known and step up and do some of the talking to. It is inevitable. Especially when you look at it and look at the top-25, they can all be champions and top-10 fighters. If anything, it will add more top-10s to promote. I don’t see any downside to it really. When you talk about the longevity, and health and safety, I mean the champion at 155 almost died from a weight cut. I think longevity wise it makes too much sense.” BJPenn.com

Davi Ramos: I can submit anyone in the UFC
“I see my career as being on an upswing at the moment. I’m coming off three wins. For my first UFC bout, I was booked on a week’s notice. I didn’t have time to train. It went to decision. I felt I actually won, but the judges saw it differently. I came back to my normal weight class and scored three wins against good opponents. I beat Nick Hein in Brazil by submission. I also submitted John Gunther, as well as Chris Gruetzemacher, who went on to defeat Joe Lauzon after that. I see myself improving within the organization. ... I don’t like trash talk. One of the main principles of martial arts is respect. Of course, I understand that fights have to be promoted in the best way possible. All I can say is that I can submit anyone who is currently in the UFC. I best represent what my art is by being respectful while still chasing victory.” Ramos fights Austin Hubbard on the main card of UFC on ESPN+ 10 on Saturday. h/t MMA Junkie
