    is p1 ringside? or how close?

    It'll get you in those floor seats in the A, B and C blocks. B1 looks like the one to be in (not as many rows so it's more like to get you closer to the action), though it's a lottery as to how close you'll get in those blocks.

    Norman Parke Vs Rustam Khabilov



    So if anyone doesn't get tickets contact Norman ;)

    hope him and wilkinson fights are only prelims other wise its gonna be a garbage card like dublin if hes on the main.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,515 ✭✭✭Hoki


    Bisping vs Mousassi main event. Pretty underwhelming but to be expected.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    Yeah wont be going over to see that card anyways no interest in any of them fights announced so far ill go to bamma instead.

    Has it been confirmed its the main, or is it just the assumption as its Bisping in the UK

    Not confirmed, I'm just presuming it will be, would be surprised if it's not tbh.

    It's not a bad assumption to make in fairness...

    Do you think its likely we'll see Saul Rogers on the card?

    Completely depends on how his fight goes at the TUF finale (assuming he's either in the tournament finale or just on the card as filler).

    Either way, I doubt it. He's hasn't had that quick of a turnaround since 2012.

    Yeh I guess if is in the final or if he wins a fight on the card then its a lot more likely to be an option.

    I'm sure he would no doubt prefer a longer gap but a home country UFC event doesn't come around that often for non-US fighters so I'm sure he would be willing to push it if need be.

    Bisping v Mousassi added, great fight and it's not the main event so I can see this being a decent card.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Got my tickets. :D

    The card is shaping up nicely. I would have preferred Machida instead of Mousasi but I really can't complain about #7 v #9 in the middleweight division. Amirkhani v Wilkinson is also a cool matchup with a bit of bad blood there for good measure. Brad Pickett was always going to be on it and he's slated to face Erik Perez which should be a good scrap, while obviously Parke has his fight too.

    With Bisping/Mousasi not being officially named main event yet I wonder if the UFC will look elsewhere for a headliner? Rory MacDonald v Hector Lombard is fantasy land, but one can hope!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    ill predict manuwa till and tom breese and seery as 4 other fighters on the card.

  • Registered Users Posts: 6,349 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    All a bit silly having main event as TBA v TBA and tickets on sale; I didn't bother meself hope it works out good for those taking the gamble though.

    Ais just put on her FB that she hasn't been gave a fight for the London card. Sounds like she wanted on it too.

    Disappointing. Her against Calderwood would have been a good one.

    Just saw a rumour of macdonald Lombard for main event. Might be true seeing as they didn't announce bisbing as main. Card gor a whole lot better if true.

    thats been the rumour the past few months,rory himself was saying it while in dublin,suprised its not signed off on now which makes me doubtful


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Tom Breese matched up against Keita Nakamura for this one, confirmed. Jesus wept, if the Pendred matchup was a bloodbath this might be a murder.


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


    Awful match-making.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    Can see them bringing him to the boil very slowly,the uk needs a big mma star so id say their builiding him up very steadily get a heap of wins on the board few highlight reels and go from there,the guy is legit right now as it is seen he was training with some serious beasts at renzo gracies this week I know he got a medal at purple I think at the Abu Dabhis.


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


    Nobody be impressed with him knocking out a Japanese dude nobody has ever heard though. At best he is going to stand still.

    It think it was no-gi worlds. There's no belts at Abu Dhabi, all belts in together.

    You're spot on about Renzo's. Here he is with Eddie Cummings, John Danaher, GSP, Garry Tonon (don't know the other two)
