    This fight should be entertaining if nothing else, hope it goes 5.
    Could be a bloodbath
    hard to shout against either fighter here

    dunham looks to have a very difficult task on his hands v barbosa
    he is tough if nothing else but I fear barbosa will do a lot
    of damage and possibly finish dunham, his stand up is streets
    ahead of dunham

    think healy will get his walking papers if he loses this fight.
    I think he will myself

    Hope cowboy can do it and pick up another bonus on the way, four in a row would be pretty sweet! Agree with you about dunham i can see him getting finished myself, Barboza came back from the dead against Castillo to take a very good decision win. Hes up there with one of my favorite fighters to watch!!

    Some entertaining fight on that card. I think Cerone has what it takes to beat miller either standing or by submission. Barboza to come back like a man possessed and finish Dunham. Rick Story to do similar against Mafra.
    Healy Vs Tibau should be on the main card too.

    I think we're seeing a rejuvenated Cerrone and he certainly seems hungrier than ever. His determination against Barboza was great and would love to see similar carry through Miller. Either way it's a tough fight to call but I've always been a big fan of Cowboy.

    Feel sorry for Dunham here.. can't see this going any other way other than Barboza by devastation.

    Was it cowboy that got caught for tax? I remember reading that somewhere and that he was looking to fight 5 times this year! Whatever it was anyway its lit a spark under his arse because hes coming out with some awesome finishes!

    Yea apparently he told Dana he was broke and needed to fight to feed himself etc

    Not sure how exaggerated that is though..

    Cowboy said it was exaggerated. Although he did acknowledge that he has an active lifestyle though, and likes to spend a lot of money.

    I think this fight will be Cowboy's 5th fight in a year. I see Nate Diaaaaaz (STOCKTON SON!) said Cowboy basically fellates UFC. I'm all for better pay for fighters but I wish the Diaz bro's would shut the f*ck up and fight someone.

    I wish they'd just shut up and go away for good. Self-entitled, self-absorbed, own-hype-believing, highly overrated, bullies.
    They're exactly what the sport doesn't need.

    On topic: I think it'll be a war but Ceronne will take the decision. Should be a great fight though.

    Great finish by Sterling there, looks a serious prospect.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 107 ✭✭Mattyz69


    Just wondering, is the main event available on fight pass?

    Might be a bit early with the j jones comparisons though. Impressive all the same

    Yeah i wouldnt go that fair but he looked pretty good, defo have to watch out for his next fight anyway!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,841 ✭✭✭lertsnim


    Some cracking fights so far tonight. I'm glad I stayed up for it.

    That linker fight was unreal! ufc needs to start paying based on performance!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,750 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Barbozas leg kicks are scary!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,841 ✭✭✭lertsnim


    What a head kick to end the night. In fairness it should have been over before that except for some stupid refereeing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,750 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Khabib called out cowboy on twitter after the fight, another good scalp from the Russian after he suplexs cowboy to death.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,541 ✭✭✭Davei141


    That was a brilliant card. If the Irish card is close to it in terms of entertainment we are in for a treat.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,126 ✭✭✭✭calex71


    That was certainly the most entertaining card i've seen in recent times.

    The kick at the end was a thing of beauty when you see it in slow mo, all shin too, ouch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,961 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    just finished it, great card, it had everything

    love cerrone, just a shame there happens to be 2/3 better
    fighters in the divison
    If I could give a belt to any fighter in the ufc i'd give to cerrone

    healy came up short, not ufc material at all.
    barbosa different class, an animal when things go his way

    v impressed with linekar, looks like the man could take punches
    all day, tough as they come

    yep, if only the irish card is half as good as that I'll be happy

    Everything is a liver kick these days, no such thing as a good old fashioned kick in the stomach anymore:rolleyes:

    Looked more like the solar plexus to me. I definitely think that Jim Miller was hit in the Solar Plexus which the ref mistook for a low blow.
