I don't really know who I want to win this fight. Gonzaga's head kick KO when they fought first in Manchester was insane. Cro Cop hasn't fought in the UFC for a long while but is coming off two wins in a row.

Gonzaga has lost his last two though. Amazed to see the odds so against Cro Cop. It looks a more even contest in my eyes anyway.

I'm more interested to see how Joanne Calderwood gets on.

Exactly this for me. A convincing win may well bring about a title shot in Glasgow? Fingers crossed anyway!

Not a chance. With injuries destroying cards last year, the UFC are putting 2 title fights on the PPV's in case one fight gets pulled.

Sorry to burst your bubble Paully.

I will be at this on Saturday. Looking forward to it, and hoping to get to the weigh ins as well.

Will be interesting to see how Manuwa does after such a long time off since his fight with Gustafsson.

Cro Cop via KO/TKO

I think Gonzaga will take this with a filthy submission

That_Guy

Interesting to note that Cro Cop is 6-0 in rematch fights.

Jimi Mawuna v Jan Blachowicz is the fight I can't wait for. Think Jan could be the next big thing at 205.

If he manages a quick finish and comes out unscathed he'll most certainly be thrown in with Maldonado.

Forrest Griffin is part of the Q&A at the moment. Very funny guy.

What are people planning on doing for this one then? I'll probably just stream the prelims live and then stay off social media etc for the night in order to watch the main card at 11pm on Pick TV without knowing the results.

Watching live from start to finish.

I assume all of the picks for Cro Cop here are people going with the hearts over their heads?

I obviously want Cro Cop to win, but c'mon. . .

Why don't BT sports have this?

Gonzaga via Decision

Very impressive Steven Ray.

moneyman

Anyone watching this on Fight Pass?

Good performance from Stevie Ray, should have been stopped about 5 punches earlier. Very poor from the ref.

Happened a few times where start time isn't the norm but they usually show on tape delay anyway not sure why they don't even have that this time.

As stated in OP it's on Pick TV if you have a free to air dish you should be able to "Pick" this up you don't need to have SKY.

MagicIRL

Pick is tape delay too , btw.

MCGREGOR IS GONNA KILL THAT BRAZILIAN AND MAKE HIM SHINE THE BELT.

Goldie's a bollix, but at least he can cut a promo.

They guy they have with Dan Hardy can't build these fights up with his narration at all. Dull

Cro Cop via KO/TKO

Very dull card so far, and they've still a lot of fights to go before it's over. They could have trimmed a few

this is hard work

That_Guy

Stevie Ray's fight and Meza/Stasiak have been the stand out fights so far. It's been pretty dull in truth.

Cro Cop via Submission

Just realised I had Pick TV, daycent! Will tune in at 11, cmon JoJo!!

Edit: Just saw only 2 fights left in the prelims. Will the main card be shown live on any TV or is it just live on fight pass? Will have to avoid the Internet all night if I wait til 11.

That_Guy

8 second knock out from Edwards!!!

moneyman

That was brutal!

Dancor

Cro Cop via Decision

Lads they need to stop showing the Gonzaga head kick to cro cop. The way he goes over on his knee is disturbing.

BrickFist

Gonzaga via Decision

So this isn't being shown live over here ?

The hell is that all about ?

Zero-Cool

Cro Cop via Submission

Lets go JoJo!!

That_Guy

Come on JoJo!!!

CurryFlavoured

How the feck was Edwards a middleweight before? Looks like he could make a push for lightweight by his frame.

Worst main event in history? I know history blah blah but in terms of quality.

That_Guy

I always think that JoJo is about to burst into tears.

CurryFlavoured

Jojo gone.

Zero-Cool

Cro Cop via Submission

Ah bollox sake! Beautiful armbar though.

That_Guy

HOLY FÚCK!!!

mailburner

Gonzaga via Decision

biggest underdog on the card just goes in

riffmongous

The hop toss is right there!

CurryFlavoured

Ref needs to separate them. Westcott is doing nothing but will win the fight.

Finally.

riffmongous

It's one of those mma fights that really pisses me off

That_Guy

This grinding against the fence has been a theme all night. Dreadful.

CurryFlavoured

19-19 into R3 now. Westcott is knackered, come on Pawlak.

riffmongous

That's a lot better now, I hope the Polish guy can finish him off now

That_Guy

Still have Westcott up two rounds to one despite Pawlak ending up on top at the end.

The latter is the only one looking to fight.

Nah, we was lighting him up any time they weren't hugging. Pawlak should take a 29-28 if he can stay in control here.

mailburner

Gonzaga via Decision

delighted for pawlak
westcott shouldnt be in the ufc for much longer

That_Guy

A dreadful fight nonetheless.

It's been a bad card.

SeanFrank

This card looked crap before and has lived up to expectations. 8 second KO couldn't even save it. Moroz looked good alright, but could easily have skipped the rest.

Hopefully last couple are decent fights.
