Guy isn't human.

Rosario · « **Reply #30441 on:** October 22, 2022, 09:17:24 pm »

Sounds like it was injured in the lead up to the fight can’t believe he chose to fight with a dislocated shoulder.

Rosario · « **Reply #30442 on:** October 22, 2022, 09:27:26 pm »

Popped out 20 times during camp! Crazy for him not to pull out considering it’s not like he wouldn’t have gotten his chance inside the next 6-12 months anyway.

His body seems to be falling apart since he popped, getting a lot of injuries. Been a bit of a weird card this, hope the title fight delivers.

Good decision TJ went ahead with that fight.

Sterling should push for the O'Malley fight.

DC saying Islam spent a mil in preparation for this fight

He’s 36 so I guess if he thinks he only has 1 or 2 fight me left in him then yes it’s a sound decision otherwise just crazy.

Agreed on the O’Malley fight though he wins that without breaking a sweat and sells the most PPV buys.

Hes fucking amazing!

Rosario · « **Reply #30448 on:** October 22, 2022, 09:55:45 pm »

Islam is going to be a problem for the rest of the lightweight division that skill set is going to be hard to beat.

BER · « **Reply #30449 on:** October 22, 2022, 10:00:46 pm »

Volk should stay at FW.

What a monster.

rawcusk8 · « **Reply #30451 on:** October 22, 2022, 10:03:45 pm »

To do that to Charles is just brilliant, on the front foot from the start and then to sub him.. amazing.

Rosario · « **Reply #30452 on:** October 22, 2022, 10:04:17 pm »

I’m a huge Volk fan and he has some of the best standup in MMA but he doesn’t want any of that. I think Islam will throw him around like a rag doll at 155

Asam · « **Reply #30453 on:** October 22, 2022, 10:26:16 pm »

Islam looked sensational, his striking was crisp and he dominated Oliveira on the ground, great win and well deserved

I've been a good boy · « **Reply #30454 on:** October 22, 2022, 10:55:24 pm »

Amazing performance by Islam. Knew Charles would get rocked at some point, he's got a glass chin. Thankfully Islam followed up quickly with my favourite sub. He will eat Volk, size will play a big part as Islam has a big core.

anandg_lfc · « **Reply #30455 on:** October 23, 2022, 10:03:41 am »

Did not expect Islam to walk through oliveira like that. His overall wrestling is not as elite as khabib but cant see anyone in the division giving him trouble at this moment. Volkanovski was the only probably the only one that makes sense as all the others in top have had losses.

The o'malley fight was a disgraceful decision, Yan dominated him with his wrestling and also hit him with good punches. He had almost 6 mins of control time on the ground.

Just went to sit down on watch it this morning and it's on box office.

Seriously who the fuck in the UK is paying extra to watch that, the number of buys they have just be tiny.

Watch less & less Ufc these days, not that long ago that I'd never miss an event. Stupid decision by BT.

Agreed...was surprised to see it was a Box Office event....just sheer pointless fucking greed by BT....

and a surprisingly disappointing event on the whole....weird, shite atmosphere....wayward scorecards - Dillashaw's injury / non-fight ...and a shortlived main contest.......lots of hype, very little substance

xbugawugax · « **Reply #30458 on:** October 23, 2022, 11:55:32 am »

most already writing off volk vs islam which kind of makes sense considering how dominant islam was vs a killer like charles

hope to see beneil vs islam soon. beneil looks crafty and made gamrot looks normal. guess there are levels to this game.

stevieG786 · « **Reply #30459 on:** October 23, 2022, 02:38:43 pm »

Islam was always going to beat Charles, he didn’t stand a chance

Sterling win was predictable as well

Yan vs Suga was a great fight, the decision was BS mind

stevieG786 · « **Reply #30460 on:** October 23, 2022, 02:44:23 pm »

Oh and Khabib would have mauled Charles had he not retired

leinad · « **Reply #30461 on:** November 12, 2022, 01:30:23 pm »

Pereira vs Izzy tonight! I'm going with Pereira, who's everyone got?

Really really hope it’s Pereira, depends entirely how much he lets Izzy settle in. If he is aggressive from the start he might pull it off

I hope Pereira takes his head off again, he makes me cringe so much. Chandler vs Poirier should be a banger as well. I don't see Molly having much of a chance unless she catches her with something but she's likely to be on her back for most of the fight.

I've been a good boy · « **Reply #30464 on:** November 12, 2022, 08:14:36 pm »

Yeah hoping for Pereira to do some damage tonight. Don't like Adesanya. Couldve been the face of the company but his fighting style and attitude both stink.

Rosario · « **Reply #30465 on:** November 12, 2022, 08:38:52 pm »

I think Izzy gets it done personally, he’s the more dynamic and technical striker and if he can avoid that big shot from Pereira he gets the job done.

Flaccido Dongingo · « **Reply #30466 on:** November 12, 2022, 10:50:14 pm »

Adesanya is really dull to watch.

leinad · « **Reply #30467 on:** November 12, 2022, 11:35:06 pm »

I hope Pereira leaves him frozen like Elsa

leinad · « **Reply #30468 on:** November 13, 2022, 01:49:40 am »

That didn't last long unfortunately. Levels to this.

Flaccido Dongingo · « **Reply #30469 on:** November 13, 2022, 02:26:35 am »

Poor Molly really got outclassed there.

leinad · « **Reply #30470 on:** November 13, 2022, 02:35:49 am »

Felt like she got throw to the Wolves a bit there, Blanchfield has one of the best ground games in WMMA.

Guy seemed like he wanted nothing on the feet! Made up for Hooker tho.

Rosario · « **Reply #30475 on:** November 13, 2022, 03:59:09 am »

Brutal end for Edgar but that was a hell of a performance by Gutierrez.

leinad · « **Reply #30476 on:** November 13, 2022, 04:08:44 am »

I've never liked Edgar for some reason, I think because I was such a big BJ fanboy back in the day but sad to see it end like that.

Hoping for Chandler to KO Dustin here.

leinad · « **Reply #30477 on:** November 13, 2022, 04:23:20 am »

Chandler isn't in a dull fight!! Love this guy. It's funny how DC always repeats what Rogan says lol.

Rosario · « **Reply #30478 on:** November 13, 2022, 04:24:59 am »

This is has been as good as advertised so far!

leinad · « **Reply #30479 on:** November 13, 2022, 04:29:30 am »

Even in Bellator MC wasn't in a bad fight. Love this! I have MC 2 up.
