    Nice judging again.
    Will they give Bisping the decision while he is getting the smelling salts to wake him up?

    If Breese ever met Demian Maia in the octagon he would be in a world of hurt. I'd be inclined to say the same for Gunnar Nelson as well.

    He had to rely on his sheer size and strength there to keep control of nakamura on the ground.

    Overall very impressed with Tom Breese, good stand up, good ground game and he his tough. Looked a little tired towards the end but it was that type of fight. Can't see many people finishing him in his career.

    Yeah, I think he was a bit too hard on himself there to be honest.

    Almost everyone will get schooled by Maia and Nelson, but Nakamura is pretty seasoned on the ground, I wouldn't hold it against Tom too much. He was a bit naive on the ground imo, he could of stayed there less and had more success on the feet.

    Is there a UFC.tv app for PS4? Or are you watching it through the browser?

    No app for PS4 and it wont work in the browser, you need flash for it to work through the browser.

    Might be able to watch it in the live event viewer app but its only available in US/Canada

    I might be a bit too eager, but I'd watch them all tbh, but the first two on the card were great : the Teymur fight, then Packalen.

    I'm not a fan of Bisping but would like to see him win here, also sorry to see him face Silva at this point and not a few years ago for a title.

    Always liked Bisping, very entertaining. He's been right up there for this amount of time says something.

    Ah yeah I agree as a fighter, he just rubbed me up the wrong wrong way for years as a person which he seems to have lost to degree in recent years though.

    Many don't like Bisping but hes done a lot in terms of being a big part of the reason the UFC was able to grow into the UK and across Europe. Hes the first non US winner of the Ultimate Fighter and has the third most wins in the UFC which is pretty impressive. He is no different to Conor McGregor hyping his fights and offending fighters and talking a lot and has made a good career out of it. He's also pretty decent when hes on Fox. I think what toned him down was knowing he probably wouldnt get a title shot anymore and was more a gatekeeper.
