    I'm predicting this to go two rounds. Three at the most. Don't think/hope we'll be getting a decision

    This size of the octagon compared to the last 2 nights, the difference is massive

    I hope Conor slept well. I reckon it's so important. It's probably the only thing both of us can relate too.

    As I look around at the carnage of Doritos packets I really am starting to gas here.

    Prob 4.5 hours to go.

    Hope I get a second wind.

    After Hours have copied the exact same thread title and formatting as this one. You're going to have a lot of thanks whoring idiots wandering in here, or at least more than usual with big events.

    Mods, I'd suggest changing the thread title somewhat and make your job just a fraction easier later on.

    avoiding that thread completely is the best plan, all that seems to posting on it is the usual numptys coming on to get a reaction

    I'm wrecked here too, I normally stay up for fights even if I'm not really interested. Then tonight of all nights I'm struggling! Stupid toasty fire.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,366 ✭✭✭✭Kylo Ren


    Staying up for Fight Night on Thursday and TUF Final last night has prepared me mentally and physically for staying up. I am truly on another level. I brought in a sleep coach to help me - Pido Ortal. I am a master of sleep and sleep movement.

    Staying up for me is a whole different ball game, Joe.

    Dey don't stay up like I stay up. I will be in a zen like state come 5 AM. I predikt dese tings.

    I'm switching from grape to grain.

    These are the kinds of decisions that separate the people who watch the whole card live and have long lasting memories of a where were you life event and those that wake up where they least expect, dry mouthed, and then check their phone and spoil the result for themselves in the early morning.

    Jesus even the pre-lims seems yonks away.

    This should be a decent fight here, don't like Makdessi though so I hope he gets beaten.

    Upc

    Tried ringing, wont be getting a human being on the other end till monday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,975 ✭✭✭nkay1985


    Event ordered in HD on UPC.tv now. Was pretty much bang on the last time around so here's hoping for the same.

    Was out on the the beer last night and up early this morning. Slept for an hour and a half around 5:30 this evening. Thinking I probably need another hour/hour and a half before it all kicks off at 3am. Looking forward to it now. Genuinely am not sure what way it'll go. I swing from giving McGregor no chance to thinking he might win without too much trouble! Should be good.

    Am I right in thinking the full prelims are on fight pass too? Either the free or the ppv?

    They tweeted there that they have backlogs due to high demand; hope you get switched on for the fight


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,673 ✭✭✭kkelly77


    Can anyone confirm, is ordering PPV via UFC.tv only for the Aldo V McGregor fight or is it for all fights on the main card?

    Trying to stream through the UFC app on Xbox and getting 'Requested video is currently unavailable' message for trying to view Prelims and 'Event not live yet' when selecting Aldo V Mcgregor

    First week not month. just in case someone doesn't remember to cancel.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,122 ✭✭✭c montgomery


    FFS just found out setanta have a 2 month minimum on their no contract monthly option, had it hidden in the terms and conditions which are not visible on the ordering page.

    One for the consumer authority to look at I think.

    I think Sambo is huge there so they convert to mma easily. Ufc tapping into the talent pool over there.

    I'm not too fussed about the prelims. Although I would like to see the Faber fight.

    Sound out mate but i did have firstrow on the tv but i bought it in fear of connection issues close to the fight and its the first ppv ive bought myself.

    I can say with some relief that the order had gone through and i have the fight :):)

    Must also say that i did turn off the box for the last 30 mins, maybe that helped it to register, maybe not
