    Was about to post the same.
    He's trending in twitter.

    Ariel also did a great job of promoting It as the people main event. He pointed out before the fight that true to his word Conir came out with no hat, no shirt, no banner, no sponsors at all. Just the flag.

    I don't know wtf is wrong with embedding today.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IC8eoPJs5KQ&feature=youtu.be

    I'll try embed for the guys on phones shortly.

    Thanks for that, I got 5 minutes too late and missed it

    What are the bets Conors fight is shown on the main card if there is a 1st round KO? Would be very easy for the UFC to start the hype train now since Aldo needs a proper challenger and his first fight in the UFC will no doubt have people start asking questions. He has the right style for it.

    Interesting days ahead. Interesting to see how the world media react. I think he's going to be a fan favourite outside of Ireland fast.

    It's a guarantee it gets shown on ESPN now.
    They lost two rounds in the main. So the room should be there no matter what.
    It's only 67 sec long. Potential KOoTN. Trending on twitter, Dana took notice. Everything about the fight points towards a PPV spot.

    Getting pretty ahead of yourself talking about Aldo.

    Think they will slot it in if they've time.

    I would hate to see him fast tracked to contender status before he's ready. He's after making a remarkable start in the UFC, but I hope he has decent level headed people around him that will help to keep him grounded.

    I've just realised he is only 24. That makes it even better.

    I don't think so.

    They do build hype early for fighters that shine. Regardless of whether he is near or far in actual fact, the UFC might bank a little in him and increase his profile steadily. Kenny Florian is creaming himself and they are still analysing his technique and replaying videos even after 2 more fights have passed. He's clearly the story of the card so far. Not a bad sign.

    As I said, will be interesting to see how it pans out.

    Seriously, you're getting way ahead of yourself


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,158 ✭✭✭Arawn


    connors capoeira and willingness to use it as demonstrated by the missed kick will mean fans will warm to his unpredictability imo

    Excellent second round for madadi. Easy to see why he's a fan favourite in sweden.

    No is the answer so yes it is a shocker.

    I know the sites to stay away from until I see a MMA event I wan't to watch.

    I've found a site with a good quality stream of the main card. Am I risking a ban if I post it? Mods?
