Is this like Enter the Dragon or Mmortal Kombat? Fight on an island organised by some fat man?

FTH · « **Reply #29121 on:** May 8, 2020, 03:32:01 pm »

It isn't on an island, it's in Florida? Disney/ESPN killed the island

Shame no khabib, but its a great card pre-covid, so to get it on during a pandemic is impressive from dana.

Does anyone know a site to download the main card type next day? Don't think I can be arsed saying until 6am.

If it passes onto anyone else, UFC is in for a massive backlash from everyone

my understanding is ‘fight island’ is for non US(international) based fighters. Jacksonville temporary location for US based fighters till the ufc apex gets clearance from nevada commission.

As for souza, theres photos like the face off when hes keeping his distance but theres also a video fistbumping werdum. The conditions haven’t been tight enough if you ask me. Everyone boarding their own planes some without PPE, gaethje stopping for photos with fans. Someone was bound to get it although in souzas case he apparently caught it at home.

BER · « **Reply #29126 on:** May 9, 2020, 01:32:53 pm »

Apparently they knew prior that Jacare had a relative with it, beyond stupid booking him to fight. His two cornermen have tested positive too and there won't be any more testing before the fights. This could get ugly fast.

Nice one, great stream.

Ngannou is a monster, that was essentially a one punch KO.

aggerdid · « **Reply #29130 on:** May 10, 2020, 05:23:31 am »

Cejudo retired then. Said on embedded he fancied a crack at the tokyo olympics so no surprise. Probably signals the end of the flyweight division

Great card

This main event is going to be a dog fight

deFacto please, you bastards · « **Reply #29132 on:** May 10, 2020, 06:06:37 am »

Gaetje was great, but no idea why Ferguson didn't try to submit him at some point. Eddie Bravo's coaching was brilliant [sarcasm]

Rosario · « **Reply #29133 on:** May 10, 2020, 06:07:35 am »

Fuck Gaethje just dismantled the hell out of Ferguson can’t say I saw that one coming personally

I've been a good boy · « **Reply #29134 on:** May 10, 2020, 06:07:53 am »

Wow. Justin Gaethje is an animal, to do that to a guy like Tony Ferguson is super impressive. Haven't seen such as one sided beatdown for a while.

Something Worse · « **Reply #29135 on:** May 10, 2020, 06:09:12 am »

Unreal and hilarious

RedSamba · « **Reply #29136 on:** May 10, 2020, 06:11:55 am »

At least we wont have to sit through another tony vs khabib hype. Ngannou is a beast

The North Bank · « **Reply #29137 on:** May 10, 2020, 06:13:42 am »

Incredible main event, incredible card. Gaethje is a beast, dismantled Ferguson, so much punishment.

Great to watch live top level sport again.

BER · « **Reply #29138 on:** May 10, 2020, 06:14:33 am »

Gutted for Ferguson just because he deserved that title fight.maybe more than anyone in history, but Gaethje is a sound lad.

BER · « **Reply #29139 on:** May 10, 2020, 06:21:15 am »

Only downside to the card was those fucking cringy tweets they kept showing.

I've been a good boy · « **Reply #29140 on:** May 10, 2020, 06:22:37 am »

I want to see Ferguson take a punch from Ngannou. Reckon he'd still be standing.

I liked the khabib tweet. "no comment"

That was really uncomfortable to watch. Tony got picked apart the whole fight.

Have no idea what his coaches were thinking either. At some point why not look to submit the guy, take him to the ground, and use what you're extremely good at rather than sitting there and exchanging all fight long.

Eddie Bravo after the 3rd or 4th round saying ''looking beautiful out there'' to Ferguson was fucking baffling

Justin destroyed Tony man damn, it was hilarious to watch.

Khabib beats Justin

I think Tony is bigger threat to Khabib because of his submission but like said,complete ballsup last night by him and his coaches for not attempting to do any of that.

Justin is a good wrestler but yeah I can't see him beating Khabib.

Can't imagine why you watch MMA if your takeaway from that fight is that it was hilarious. Very strange.

I feel bad for Tony, wish he didn't receive a beating like that. Guy already has bad mental issues and taking that amount of clean punches can't be good for him down the road

RedSamba · « **Reply #29151 on:** May 14, 2020, 10:46:35 am »

Anthony Smith got destroyed last night. Absolutely criminal by his corner to not stop the fight

aggerdid · « **Reply #29152 on:** May 17, 2020, 09:14:22 am »

Just woke up to realise courtney casey to win by decision was the only one i got wrong on my 6 fold. Would have been 9 grand. I didnt see her getting a sub at all. Correct ones were ige, landwehr, song all by decisision. Nascimento stoppage. Overeem to win.

aggerdid · « **Reply #29153 on:** May 28, 2020, 02:01:30 am »

Just rewatched mcgregor khabib. Round 3 was mcgregors. I was probably too drunk to remember at the time. A sober, motivated mcgregor gives khabib problems if he keeps his back off the cage and is the aggressor. The lead up to their first one was just a big advert for mcgregors whisky and he was checking out of the sport at that point. It shouldn’t have happened. Rematch interests me more than an usman fight

deFacto please, you bastards · « **Reply #29154 on:** May 28, 2020, 02:34:38 am »

That Usman fight is never happening. He'd get destroyed, Usman is three times bigger than him and stronger, it's all talk. I just don't see how he beats Khabib, regardless of how focused he is, he doesn't have the skillset to minimize Khabib's strengths.

aggerdid · « **Reply #29155 on:** May 30, 2020, 08:15:53 pm »

People are saying woodleys done with mma(lost his belt, hardly active, acting/podcasting) think we’ll see a more aggressive woodley tonight though seeing as he isnt defending the belt anymore. I see him winning by KO

Points: kenney, gutieurez, roberts, sakai. Win: carlyle. Stoppage: woodley.

Then the probablies: rodriguez stoppage, shevchenko points, abreu sub.

deFacto please, you bastards · « **Reply #29156 on:** May 30, 2020, 10:41:12 pm »

Woodley was fighting hurt and injured for a while before he lost the fight. And he was the most active fighter while he was champion so can hardly fault him for taking some time off

deFacto please, you bastards · « **Reply #29157 on:** May 31, 2020, 10:24:42 am »

Woodley completed dominated. Weird to see the fight in a smaller cage.

Not a fan of egg head but I fully support his bashing of Jones

Bones Jones has vacated the Light-heavyweight Championshio of the World.
