What a shit card that was.

Paul Craig fight was good. Getting a punch of Aspinall is life changing

He's class, just a shame the injury deprived him of a full year.

Molly beaten easily, she really is an awful fighter. Never understood the hype with her and paddy.

She got that spinning elbow KO last year and if there were youtube royalties she could probably live of them for the rest of her life. She's got a new restaurant opening at the Baltic market in town (selling meatballs obviously) so I think she is looking at life after MMA.

Paddy is just a poundland McGregor. But let him have his paydays and see if his talk about helping the city is just talk

Problem is that Dana White doesn't have any British talent to sell UK shows.

Good to see Aspinall back and looking good. Though Tybura is nowhere near his level so hopefully he can get a top 5 opponent next and earn himself a title shot.

Jesus wept, if you don't like another poster, put them on the ignore list. You don't have to interact with them.

I like Molly, I think she's a genuine person, so I like to see her do well, but she's been elevated far above her ability with a couple of highlight reel KOs.

I kinda hate it whenever Molly or Paddy fight, it always brings out all the dickheads who don’t like scousers on social media.

Redbonnie · « **Reply #30769 on:** July 23, 2023, 12:42:45 am »

That will hurt Molly … she has a good head on her shoulders though and I wish her all the best. Finished in UFC now after that.

Yeah, she's been completely outclassed in her last two fights, she's very magnanimous in defeat though, she never slings insults or anything like that at her opponent, fair play to her for that at the very least.

Brilliant card this weekend, shame it's on at the same time as Spence v Crawford.

rawcusk8 · « **Reply #30772 on:** July 27, 2023, 10:18:27 pm »

What a lovely weekend for fight fans, UFC and Boxing, I’ll be switching between both.

Roman Kopylov with the shot of the night with that leg kick.

Bobby Green with the near-submission of the night, choking out Tony Ferguson who just refused to tap.

But let's be honest- we should all be talking about Derrick Lewis' flying knee and celebration. He was having the time of his life and good for him.

I've been a good boy · « **Reply #30774 on:** July 30, 2023, 05:17:15 am »

Derrick Lewis is a fucking legend, love that guy.

As for Tony, what a sad sight. Never seen a fighter become washed so quickly, his mental health has always been in question as well.

Ufff nasty headkick. Gaethje is a bad man

The Kopylov kick was cleaner, but the Gaethje kick was absolute power. Poirer got a hand in between his head and the kick and still got knocked the fuck out. Wow!

Damn I had only just switched over from the Crawford masterclass about 30 seconds before that kick

Tony was 16-1 until he fought Gaethje. Since then, he's 0-6. At 39 years old, I wonder if that might be the last time we see him.

Gaethje is a beast.. wonderful kick, Leon style. Lol @ Connor tweeting he’ll slap Gaethje around, he’d get absolutely smashed.

McGregor is barely more than a Twitter troll nowadays.

OMalleys right hand crumbled Sterling. Surprised how much power be got considering it was a short right

I've been a good boy · « **Reply #30782 on:** August 20, 2023, 12:26:12 pm »

It was a brilliant counter, reminded me of McGregor vs Aldo. Precisions and timing was key, he caught Aljo with the best shot of his career.

Ian Garry is one annoying twat. Hope he gets his jaw spun very soon the little Conor wannabe.

BER · « **Reply #30783 on:** August 20, 2023, 01:41:55 pm »

Sickened just because it's exactly what the UFC wanted.

Caught him right on the end of his lunge, picture perfect. Though it was an early-ish stoppage by a punch or two. They're both trash people but i still felt sorry for Sterling getting booed, been a great champ but one of the most unloved too.

All the fake Connors make it cringey don't they. Garry will be found out by a wrestler hopefully, but can see him being fed a few more easy fights

not sure how ufc move on from this. either give o malley easy strikers or feed merab which is the most deserving of the title fight now.

Oh goodie, another bellend as a champion in the UFC.

Rosario · « **Reply #30788 on:** August 21, 2023, 12:15:38 am »

They put the full fight up on YouTube only an hour or two after the fight, no one not even Connor or Ronda have gotten this sort of push from the UFC before.

Thoroughly deserved by Strickland, completely out thought Adesanya, who was as dull to watch as ever.

MMA math not adding up for that one. How hell did Strickland just comfortably outpoint Adesanya?

Issy just dipped out on his press conference as well.
