UFC Fight Night 110: Lewis vs. Hunt

mailburner

I fancy hunt for this and am a little surprised he's the underdog, would be very surprised if this went past the first

I've no doubt daniel kelly will be involved in another brawl..usually expect him to get beat (esp v evans and carlos junior) and same applies here but he keeps doing it, beating brunson a
step too far imo

Gamebred

Poor card really but getting used to it now, Elliot fight will have some fun scrambles expect him to get the better of that with a dec win maybe late sub, Hunto only got his head caved in a few months ago not good for him fighting a finisher in Lewis my heart says Hunto walk off ko upper cut.

I thought this being in New Zealand we might get an earlier time

2 hrs ahead of Australia so same deal there. Card on early during the day.

You can never right off Hunt's right hand. But he hasn't looked great in his last few nights. Not since Werdum had his number with the flying knee.
I'd fancy Lewis to get the KO.

There's a guy I know, friend of a friend sort of thing, fighting on this card. A bit of a lunatic, hoping he doesn't disappoint.

What's the name, so we can all root for him

Ashkan Mokhtarian, fighting John Moraga at flyweight

Fancy Lewis in this one, a win could give him a title shot which he will never get near

Did Ross pearson not get cut a few months back?

Mellor

Derek Lewis at the weigh-in, doing Cormier impression to make weight. Hard not to like this guy.


Also both fighters had to cut to make weight. The ref better have a quality breakfast.

mailburner

Lewis has looked pretty bad at times too especially against big country where I thought he'd win that easily
I'm not sure he'll be able to take hunts power yet think hunt will be able to take a few
I see him doing the same to Lewis as he did to Nelson myself

What do you think of his chances?

Looking at Moraga's record he has lost 3 in a row, and 5 of the last 8. The first of those losses was a rd 5 sub by mighty mouse for the title so obv he is no slouch.

PP have him 1.61

I imagine Ashkan will be really fired up, UFC debut in front fans from his part of the world.

Moraga is a former title contebder. So odds are about right.
But Ashkan will be coming in aggressive. He's a lot of finishes.

Ross Pearson currently 11-10 (1NC). On a 3 fight losing streak.

He's one of my favourite fighters but it's probably P45 time for him if he loses here. Should call it a day if he gets cut.

first fight called off

The night's opening fight has been cancelled following an announcement that Thibault Gouti was suffering with a last-minute illness.

Scheduled to start at midnight, but if the first fight is cancelled then I'd say it will be 00:30am for first fight, but I'm only guessing.

Paully D

The extra half hour break because of the scrapped fight is a killer already. It's going to be a long night.

tinpib

This Conor/Nate filler package is brilliant. I'm a nervous wreck watching it.

Subcomandante Marcos

Great reminder for Conor that Nate beat the **** out of him where as he won a debatable split decision over Nate.

Sorry, got worked up by the intro highlights thingy. Was well produced. I'll behave from now on. Promise.

tinpib

Think JJ squeaked that, connected with a few punches.

Sounds like a good crowd there already which makes a nice change.

Paully D

Two poor fighters but it is making for a fun fight.

Enjoyable first round there.

Yeah, either of them could eat a big shot and drop at any time.

tinpib

Crikey that was a beauty of a left there from JJ. Right in the kisser.

Subcomandante Marcos

Ya, that Korean lassie seems to love a scrap. Only 19, one to watch out for.

Subcomandante Marcos

Yeah, she really has a lot to work with but a lot of progress to make before she'll be ready for a top 10 fight. Will be interesting to see how she comes along.

Gamebred

Muck fight 2 awful grapplers.

Kirby

Pretty poor fight there.

Subcomandante Marcos

Mellor's friend of a friends up next.

Kirby

Look! It's the soon to be cancelled division!

martyos121

That was a great guillotine escape, other fighters might've tapped to that. This guy is tough as nails.

Ya, I'd say there was no way he was going to tap. Seems like some schoolboy errors from him though, put himself in serious danger twice with the takedown attempts. Says I lying on my bed with my laptop on my chest.

I have always said they should get rid of it!

This fight makes me ask.....

Does anyone know anyone still with a rats tail hair?

I remember when people had them! :pac:

Gamebred

Mismatch here.

thewheel2.0

His rat tail was tucked into his ear like a builders pencil at the end there

mailburner

mokhtarian lacks nothing in toughness but that's about it sadly, didn't see him going the distance after the first

The White Feather

He sounded like he was asleep in his winning interview

These Flyweight fights are nearly always zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Just get rid of the division

Gamebred

I'd personally rather watch the 125lb div than any woman fighter Joanna included.

The White Feather

What do you all think of John Gooden?

I don't hate him but don't love him either

He said ""Not slip up on his banana skin" earlier!!

too many puns to say the least

Probably tries too hard, Stann is ok but harps on too much about how he was talking to the fighter during the week ect.

Why don't you like the women fighting?

Some of the quality is poor alright but I like the "title picture" fights as in the women near the top of the mountain.Big drop off in quality then though
