UFC

[Lee909 11,532]

Nearly 90 significant strikes in 2 rounds, fuck

[Elite 8,797]

Yeah Kattar did well to survive that round, getting battered.

[Lee909 11,532]

Dont agree this will be in the running for fight of the year

Its needs to be a fight for that

 

this is however going to be in contention for beatdown of the year

[Captain Turdseye 12,066]

Split decision.

Agreed. Kattar did well to survive but expected Kattar to offer more in the fight.

[Em City 1,332]

Masterclass from Holloway.

[Welsh 122]

What a performance from Max. I was worried he might never be the same after losing a few times (Frankie Edgar aside).

 

Kattar is as tough as they come but he got destroyed.

Is Conor going to win next week? I rarely watch UFC but am a bit of a Conor fanboy when he fights.

He won their first fight but is possibly the underdog in this one. Hope his face gets rearranged, the prick.

He looks in unreal shape. I can see why people can't stand him. I think he's funny as fuck.

Ha, I'm the complete opposite, I struggle to find a single redeeming feature.

I hope McGregor wins, he's a dick but I'm can't help but get pulled in to the theatre of it all. The main thing about him that annoys me is how little he fights, but if he's motivated and wants it then I can see him smashing the shit out of the division.

Same.

 

I hate his fans more though.

[Elite 8,797]

I can't stand McGregor, complete scumbag.

Said this before but when he was up and coming, he could get away with his cockiness. Also, being Irish, seeing an irish man run through everyone was epic. But he went full retard with his WWE style build ups and I can't stand him any more. I still want him to fight, and win. I just don't watch any of his pressers or post match shite, don't read any articles in the build up etc. Just watch him fight.

 

He represents the style of fighting I find most exciting. Big heavy strikes, just kicking the fuck out of each other. No BJJ, rolling, wrestling. I know they're valid and effective disciplines, I just don't know enough about them to find them entertaining.

[Bjornebye 25,598]

Twat or not, him being a bastard has more than quadrupled his earnings and the earning potential of pretty much the whole UFC. He brought a fuck load more fans to the sport.

I don't know whether it's just because of corona so can't pull his usual stunts at the pressers, or if he's grown out of it, but he seems to have calmed down a quite bit lately. Nowhere near as bad as he was a couple of years ago anyway.

 

He's even quiet on twitter, and in his interviews he's been pretty chilled out, so maybe he isn't the same dickhead that he used to be. 

[Lee909 11,532]

Event on tomorrow 

Prelims start 3pm UK and main card 5pm. Bit of a pain in the arse, but I'll likely get into work early to watch the main card. 

 

Then big event Saturday night but it's PPV

I think he has a lot of respect and quite likes Poirier so he doesn’t need to fake a huge beef, plus it’s guaranteed to make a fuck load of money anyway. 

[Welsh 122]

Should've known it would be box office ffs. Bellends

[Elite 8,797]

I won't be buying it but it's a very good match up, Poirior is a different beast at LW.

 

 

[Elite 8,797]

Not a great afternoon for the Brits so far. Hopefully Murphy gets the win to prevent 3/3 losses.

[Lee909 11,532]

Didn't see the prelims

Brees just got himself in a bad position there,shame as he had swung the fight at the end of the first.

By all accounts he's a bit like David Price, mentally beaten before he even gets in there.
