    I don't understand why @mgmgrand was copied in on that? It sounds pretty close to confirmed by Lombards reply though

    Because the first guy had replied to Shollers original tweet, he had them tagged in it.

    Yeah, I'd be surprised all things considered. I expect Bisping/Mousasi will end up being main event, but MacDonald/Lombard would be a cracking treat if it happens.

    More fights added. The full list so far:

    Michael Bisping v Gegard Mousasi
    Mike Wilkinson v Makwan Amirkhani
    Norman Parke v Rustam Khabilov
    Tom Breese v Keita Nakamura
    Brad Pickett v Henry Briones
    Davey Grant v Marlon Vera
    Arnold Allen v Yaotzin Meza

    I'm still hoping for MacDonald v Lombard. :pac:

    Decent card better than Dublin but nothing really special,no chance of lombard rory at this stage surely as I was saying before why not keep that fight for a ppv this is sold already I cant think of a main event,Manuwa main event coming off a loss surely not?


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,241 ✭✭✭✭callaway92


    That is a class main event


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    Some absolute tripe added to the card over recent days,main event fell through im guessing.

    Shocking really, take out a couple of the main card fights and BAMMA / CageWarriors would be wanting their prelims back.

    Edited to add.

    Jimi Manuwa booked against Nikita Krylov at UFC London, looks like the fight card is complete?

    That's a good Christmas present for UK fans. Fair play.

    Compare that to our Dublin fight night...

    Compare the size of the O2 arena in London to the 3 Arena though and you have your explanation. More gate money means better fights unfortunately.

    So jealous of anyone that's going over for it, enjoy it!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    Bamma absolutely seething :pac:



    Gotta feel for Bisping,another legend hes gonna get starched by.


  • Registered Users Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    Jeeeeeeeeeeeeesus, that's one hell of a christmas present for anyone going over.

    Pickett/Briones could be an excellent fight too. Nice looking card with Krylov added to it too.

    It'll pull in a few Fight Pass subscribers no doubt so the UFC will be happy enough! Id guess he'll still be getting the same pay and bonus structure he always gets!
    Lets hope he passes this test now in January and this fight goes ahead!


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Hopefully Bisping destroys him. Even though he'd obviously have at least one more fight, it'd be a nice final chapter to his career.

    Someone who has always fallen short (mostly against guys who have been using their arse as a dartboard as Bisping himself puts it, including suffering a life-long eye injury against someone who was juiced up) but who has always fought clean, ending Silva's career.

    It'd be fitting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 207 ✭✭GFT


    Oh jesus that is bad news for Bisping in my opinion. Hoping Silva goes old school. Lucky bastids that got tickets for this.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Silva 4/9 vs Bisping 7/4 - best price for each with the bookies at present.
