UFC FIGHT NIGHT MACHIDA VS BRUNSON

mailburner

On bt sport/espn
Early prelims 12-1 fightpass
Prelims 1-2
Main 2-5.30 Bt sport/espn ch 426 on sky

double checked that 1-2 on bt sports/sky, unusual to have only an hour of the prelims televised


At a loose end and thinking of having a decent bet on covington so said I'd stick this up and see what folks think.
I think maia struggles with covington same way he struggled v woodley by being unable to get covington down.
I like machida but I could see him coming back and losing a pts decision by doing sweet feck all.
A few decent looking scraps here...lineker, trinaldo miller, carlos jnr to name a few, card could surprise a few up to the two main fights which won't be too entertaining imo.

I'll be going Covington and Brunson too. I like these cards where there's lots of close fights.

fermanagh_man

Miller/Trinaldo
Linekar/Vera
Lique/Price

3 great fights there outside the main and co-main

This card will most likely unfortunately go unnoticed but many but has potential for a lot off great fights

MagicIRL

Maia to eat Covington on the ground.

I can see Colvington stuffing some of Maia's takedowns. But he's a wrestler, and he'll shoot himself, and he won't out-grapple Maia.

Zero-Cool

I hope Maia mauls Colby in the most uncomfortable way possible.

ASOT

Surpriaed at so many picking Colby, he was choked out by warley alves. I hope he gets strangled hes a nacker.

Hate speech :eek::eek::eek::eek: omggggg :pac::pac::pac:

People need to be careful with using words like that in 2017, same reason Conor got in trouble. (even if there is no malice behind it)

The media day face-offs. Colby Covington amuses me. Also he's only 29, he looks like he's pushing 40!

Did you even listen to anything anyone said in the other thread?

Why are you still trying to defend what he said?

The conor thread is leaking again.

Maia to get back on track. Him winning the belt would delight me. Probably need someone else to dethrone Woodley though

I'm not sure Maia ever gets a shot at the title again tbh

Yeah he's had 2 title fights and they have both been boring 5 round matches. Dana hates that anyway but especially when they are a ppv headliner. He'd need a 10 fight win streak to give Dana no option but at his age that isn't gonna happen.

Woodley had had 3 stinkers in a row. Is say dana is hoping someone takes the.belt off him

If there is a God, Maia will sleep Covington.

Good man, always forget about espn

Dont suppose anyone can help shed some light for me? if this fight is starting at 2am but the clocks go back an hour, is this starting at 1am then?

tinpib

It says 11pm on the ufc site, but not up and running yet. Is it 11:30pm?

Ohh God I hope so

tinpib

Up and running now. Don't see myself staying up too long, will watch in in the morning. This Colombo guy is the spit of Dan 'Dad Bod' Kelly.

Would be brilliant if the main card is kicking off at 1am our time

tinpib

Well that was one sided.

And just one more thing :pac:, I think Colombo could be cut.

edit: announced his retirement.

D.Q

Holy **** that was an insane round

Trond

That was over. Ref was poor imo

D.Q

Should have been stopped probably, but an entertaining scrap nonetheless
