    What does that have to do with him not liking overeem?

    It was a big win for Blaydes..he was due his 10 seconds of fame on the mic. Joe cant do anything about the fact they are running out of time.

    What are you on about. He only had time to ask the winner one quick question. He also doesn't typically interview KO'd fighters anymore... All deriving from an incident with Overeem himself. I can't understand what issue you have with this.

    Good to get this joke of a fight out of the way. That being said I cant help but feel one of them gets a finish rather than it going the distance..Cm Punk by Sub or more likely Jackson by KO.

    I like Punk but I think Jackson lights him up unless he can get him to the ground

    He's fighting to not lose and become a meme! - Jimmy Smith

    LOL

    Really like Jimmy's commentary. A smart move by the UFC to get him on board.

    Just me that's slightly underwhelmed with the crowd reaction? Maybe I need to turn the volume up.

    Actually they're really getting into it now. But the walkout was pretty tame in comparison to Till's

    Haha jaysus how can you compare CM Punk, an 0-1 Pro wrestlers walk out to Darren Till headlining UFC Liverpool. That's like comparing a Junior C game to an All Ireland final

    Delighted to see Punk have a competitive round but he has zero energy left.

    Punk is knackered, he really needs to know how to trip as well, he walked Jackson half way across the cage at one stage trying to get a takedown and it was screaming for a trip.

    Yes

    What's that got to do with anything? You expected a similar crowd reaction that Darren Till got? That's just bizarre.

    CM Punk is a wrestler. He's fighting on a MMA show. The crowd isn't filled with wrestling fans.

    Darren Till was headlining the first ever event in liverpool against one of the top welterweights in the world. You're deluded to expect a similar reaction.

    Has there ever even been a reaction in America for an American fighter that you can compare to the reaction Till got?

    This is awful from both of them...Jackson showboating like he actually thinks hes good..cant wait to see him get battered in his next fight if he has one so he gets a reality check.
