Yeah crazy. Reminds me of when Tyson lost to Buster Douglas and the corner men forgot the eye iron so they filled up a balloon with water to treat his swelling eye! Heavyweight world champ. No eye iron.

Jones is going to kick ass when he is back, look at the size of him just now.

The WADA phone comment is funny. Madness. Presume we can expect a different fighting style.

[When Jokers Attack]

BT Sport are pricks. Recording cut off during last round of Magny/Gastelum as the event was over running. Was really enjoying that fight. Rest of card was pretty crap apart from Diego Sanchez/Lamas. Diego is a warrior.  Didn't see prelims but 6/6 decisions on main card.

I know this is primarily an mma thread but boxing was class last night, Cotto/Canelo lived up the much anticipated hype and the main undercard fight was a classic. Recommend checking both out.

I thought the UFC card was shite tbh. Main event was OK, I just hate when 2 fighters consistently get into fight finishing positions, and fail to finish their opponent. Happened a lot on that card.

I'm actually "over" Diego now. Standing in front of your opponent and waving them to "come and bang" isnt a technique. The fight against Giblert was great, but you can't come across as serious when you have zero gameplan. 

[When Jokers Attack]

It was more the fact Diego's foot was destroyed and he just kept on battling through. You are probably right actually, the main event probably seemed better than it actually as as the rest of the card sucked, don't think it was a bad fight though, Magny has impressed me as of late.

 

Apparently, Silva vs Belfort 2 is verbally agreed for March in Brazil.

Instead of pasting the 'share' link (as you did), you now need to paste the page URL, do a carriage return and then wait about 1 second.

See.....

Working so didn't watch it but won £100 betting on the main card fights. Easiest picks for a while.

Well, got our tickets for London yesterday. Block C1, so we are pretty much next to the cage. I love it on the floor section at UFC events, would never even bother attending if I couldnt get floor tickets. Hoping to make a bit of a trip of it too, with the weigh ins on the Friday, maybe even the fan Q&A.

[When Jokers Attack]

Mousasi vs Bisping is a good fight for London.

[t8yman]

yeah, I find mousse a bit boring though, bisping is always fun to watch. there is a possibility that this isnt the headline fight. bisping supposedly said last week that UFC are lining up 3 big fights for london, and he didnt think he was headlining.

[When Jokers Attack]

My guess is that the main event will be JJ vs Gadelha. 

[t8yman]

Would be interesting, I wouldnt complain about that.

[DomDom1984]

JJ in a main event would be honking, but no worse than some of the pish that's passed for a main event recently I suppose.

[t8yman]

A title fight in the UK would be a huge draw for the European market. Would make sense from a business point of view, she couldn't headline a USA card, plus she's never been in a boring scrap.

[When Jokers Attack]

Plus the first fight with Gadelha was entertaining and a close fight.

 

 

[When Jokers Attack]

Not long now!

 

 

Mighty Mouse on JRE the other day, really good episode.

BUZZING for Aldo McGregor! Really don't know who I want to win though. Be nice to see Aldo come out and destroy him but then be good to see McGregor running with it and possibly bringing an actual proper UFC PPV over to Ireland in a stadium.

 

That same night is also Joshua v Whyte in the boxing which is shaping up as a similar grudge to Aldo (Joshua) v McGregor (Whyte) .

[t8yman]

I'm absolutely in the Aldo camp. I want mcg humbled. He is a very skilled fighter, I just hate his bullshit, and the fanboys who buy into it. Sure it would be great for Irish/British/European MMA to have a prominent champ, I just don't want that champ to be an insufferable gobshite.

[metallimuse]

Completely agree about his bullshit but I do think he was at least humble and respectful in the cage after he won the title, but I had had a few drinks by that point.

[When Jokers Attack]

McGregor and Aldo have both already agreed to shake hands after the fight, they were both asked during a conference call a couple of days ago.

I've always said Aldo and I'll be sticking with picking him but as we know anything can happen, such a great card. Weidman/Rockhold should be class and Jacare/Romero title eliminator is a fight I'm really excited for.  Three fight cards next week so going to be amazing.

fixed for you ;-P

that's another part of his bullshit that winds me up. he is world champion of nothing.

If he wins convincingly, then I will be the first to admit he is the real deal.
