He plays the heel these days, I don’t think anyone buys it. He was a no mark for years and started wearing the crap suits and the like and built some hype and profile. 

Yeah he's meant be sound when he's not in character. Still a tit though with that persona.

Wasn't convinced about Edwards before, but he's proven himself now. 

He looked average last night I thought. His cardio is so shit in later rounds.

 

I actually had Usman winning but the rounds were close. Either way, I can't see Edwards being champion for long.

I don't think he will either, I'm not convinced he's a great champion. But up until yesterday his record was basically beating a 4th ranked Dos Anjos about 4 years ago, refusing to fight anyone above him for about 2 years til it was his turn to have the title shot, very nearly losing to Nate Diaz, and getting battered by Usman til he pulled the head kick out of his arse. 

 

He's done enough to stop me slagging him off for a bit.

You had Usman winning? How!

 

Agreed he won't be a dominant champion but he won that fight last night clearly.

Feels a bit like the UFC are pulling the rug under McCann; toned down walkouts, pulled the plug on the “fuck the tories” political stuff and given her two strong submission fighters back to back, when she’s know for her stand up. 
 

Dana White is a staunch republican and a public sponsor of Trump, it won’t have gone unnoticed her socialist views and using his platform to unite working class crowds against the establishment. 
 

At 33 with two back to back losses, there’s very little margin for error for her there now, not that she hasn’t had a great run and made life changing money - over £700K last estimate, superb. 
 

You wonder who they’ll give to Paddy next and if he’s taking notice…

Delighted to see her downward spiral continue, hopefully Pimblett is fed a half decent fighter next so he can piss off as well.

 

Aspinall is so good. I'd personally like him to have a rematch with Blaydes and then Gane maybe. I just think the jump in class in the Heavyweight division is so big.

Have to agree, immensely dislikeable the pair of them, and not much talent.

 

It's quite funny. I love mma but so many of the British fighters in general seem to act complete dickheads. Compare it to the Mauy Thai fighters from here, mostly from the North West. Its the same with so many in the sport
