    I have him up. Unless he does something stupid, he surely has this fight.

    Yeah I think he wins it especially with the deducted point but pepeys bjj has me worried with the ground and pound going on

    Absolutely. Elkins takedowns and Pepey pulling gaurd and not doing anything of note, like he has been is basically handing Elkins the W here.

    Ah we all had to start somewhere. Glad you're sticking around to watch the fights though.

    Cheers, I'm no bandwagoner. Genuine interest in it.

    thats why I dont bet on UFC, cant enjoy the fights when money is at stake! especially if its a 5 round win by decision bet or 3rd/5th round submission

    Don't use the 'b' word in here. Whether you've watched one fight or one hundred fights, you're more than welcome to the forum. :)

    Nice one for Elkins. His fights are always scrappy and messy but I enjoy watching him.


  • Registered Users Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    I like that these fights are coming one after the next unlike the Fox Sports marathon they always have.

    Could Wineland be facing the chop with a loss here?

    He's a brilliant fighter, very entertaining and always throws down but his record since his WEC days is poor.

    Hush, I'm trying to forget the crap that came before that fight.

    Did you not see Alers vs Knight?

    Great fight. FOTN so far by a mile!

    Wouldn't be hard. Rest has been poor. This fight is pretty good though.

    Good round. Wineland just about shaded it though IMO.

    Thats the cleanest groin strike I've seen in a long time. Straight in there.

    There's a lot of lads gunna be infertile after tonight.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,593 ✭✭✭theteal


    it wasn't that bad coz all the feeling is gone from the first nut kick


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,539 ✭✭✭John_D80


    Shevchenko via KO/TKO
    What a sportsman. He could have milked that groin strike for at least a warning there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    I think Wineland looks good but I can't help feel that he looks suspect to getting knocked the fúck out at any minute.

    I have both rounds to Wineland but they were very close. Great fight so far.

    he wasn't really looking for the break the first time, it was just clearly painful. Kudos to Wineland

    Same as. Relatively new to UFC so never heard of Wineland before but I like the guy. Hope he wins it.

    Nice

    Had Saenz in the second up until the point where he got dropped.

    Needs the finish.

    Wow. That was awesome.

    Some power in those shots.

    Shevchenko via KO/TKO
    Genuinely delighted for him. A legend of the division.

    Good fight by both men.
