    I'm assuming Fight Pass provides free live coverage when it's a Fox broadcast/Fight Night, and it's just the numbered event events that cost additional money?

    It's well worth the €7.99 anyway, especially with the back catalogue.

    Odds open at around 3/5 for Aldo and 3/2 for Conor.
    They opened a lot shorter in places for Connor. Prob show money to ne made shopping around.
    Poirier confirmed hes going back to 155.
    I think Conor broke him :/
    Siver is also matched at 155 next.

    Herb Dean coming under a bit of fire for being late here.
    Took 7 seconds from when he went out to being stopped. To be fairm he was hard to call, as he didn't collapse or go limp as the other guys guard and his folded legs supported him fully.
    The claims he nearly killed the guy are a bit over the top.

    These are all UFC fights from around the last year or two roughly.
    Antonio 'Bigfoot' Silva vs. Mark Hunt

    Jon Jones vs. Alexander Gustafson I (II coming son!)

    Anderson Silva vs. Forrest Griffin

    Diego Sanchez vs. Gilbert Melendez

    Some politician guy in New York is set to be arrested today and he was the main guy against MMA in NY, So Ariel says, might see some interesting developments there.

    I've seen worse. Herb gets stick for stopping fights too early, now he's getting stick for making fully sure the fighter was out

    Kim Winslow would have allowed the guy to be dead before stopping the fight.

    Not sure if its posted elsewhere, but suspicions have been raised about Jon Jones very low testosterone count

    It's been floating around here a while now. People were saying that Cocaine is often used to mask PEDs and they were putting 2 + 2 together without any real proof.

    I guess we'll never find out the truth.

    As far as I know they double tested him after the low count came back and the test came back clean? I might be wrong!

    Sanchez vs Parisyan is a bit old at this stage but a great fight


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,149 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins


    I'm confused!

    TJ Dillashaw was due to fight Dominic Cruz but it hadn't been confirmed. Cruz gets injured so they call on Raphael Assuncao to fight him. Assuncao says he can't because he's inured.

    So they decide to give Barao the shot as the fight is in April.

    Yesterday, Urijah Faber v Assuncao gets confirmed. The fight is in March?

    How could Assuncao betoo injured to fight Dillashaw in April but not Faber in March?


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,530 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Bobby Green injured and Bendo has stepped in to fight masvidal. Gorge gonna get an asses bating!

    Also, would recommend tommy toe hold's latest vid for a class Bendo skit.

    Was going to post the same thing. The UFC are a bloody joke. $$$$$$$

    It's not even February and the injuries are flying in thick and fast!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,876 ✭✭✭Easy Rod


    Some good fights added recently but a stand out for me is erik silva vs Ben Saunders. Should be a war, I'm a big fan of both.

    Assuncao was never guaranteed a title shot, he just annouced he was injured on the same day.
