    I think it's my turn to start one of these :P

    I like gaethje and am a little suprised he's the underdog here, tough as nails and vick hasn't fought anyone in his league yet.
    I wonder how vick will handle a few rounds of those leg kicks?
    I'm not sure he was the power to put gaethje away either, not a big believer in vick needless to say.

    jake surely gets his p45 if he loses this time and the likes of barbarena whilst not world class has never been finished which seems to me like something jake might have to do in order to get the job done.

    good to see anders back in action since his split loss to machida, think he'll be better again and I think he'll get williams outa there in the first round.

    johnson fili should be a cracker which I can't call, maybe fili gets the job done late on and should this become a brawl I think fili might win this.
    Johnson must be the best first round fighter in the ufc, bar khabib who he tagged quite a bit in the first he must have won the first round in most of his fights.

    I think perez could take out sanchez also, hill pts maybe and morago pts for me.

    This is a cracking little card, hopefully I can stay up because I got **** all sleep last night. I hope Justin wins, Vick has acted like a prick since the fight was announced.

    Think Vick has done a good job promoting the fight and if he wins I think he’s positioned himself well to potentially get a top 5 fight.

    Really looking forward to the card, will have to wait till morning to watch it though.

    Fili v Johnson has potential to be a great contest.

    Yahya made that look easy.

    Vick vs Gaethje is one of my most anticipated fights of the year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Heel hooks and knee bars scare me.

    That was class from Jojo what a finish.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,838 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    delighted for jojo


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Hope they step gall up, nice finish all the same.

    Called out Sanchez, I think he's underestimating Sanchez he's shot but not gone yet.

    Yeah I'd say Diego would maul him, there's just something about gall I can't warm to him at all

    same as that

    not lacking in confidence for a lad who's beaten nobody, lucky for him he's been able to handpick some of his opponents

    In fairness to him he does genuinely seem good on the ground but he can find himself cut if he's on the end of a few losses, so if I was him I'd take the cans aslong as I could .


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,838 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    How did he get out of that omg


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Wow that round as amazing. His arm has to be ****ed. The ref should have stopped that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,343 ✭✭✭Porthallian


    How do you even score a round like that?? Amazing round! Sandhagen is tough


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    That refs a joke stop the ****ing fight you moron


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,350 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    That was nuts! Closing sequence was unnecessarily prolonged alright.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    That was one of the most exciting fights I have ever seen.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,838 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    I predict there won't too many calling out sandhagen in the future and less subbing him

    such an exciting fighter, reminds me of ferguson the way he keeps coming forward

    His arms ****ed I'd say it was bent so bad. That ref lads is really after annoying me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,838 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    krause doing well here, wondered was he worth a bet at 11/4

    still underdog here at 7/4
    I think he can take this


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    I'm surprised he was that big of a price to begin with he's tough as nails.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Jimmy said on the fox desk that the ref was yamasaki in a mask haha


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,350 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    Perfect timing


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    His striking is really poor, alot of wild swings.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,838 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    very disappointing from anders
    I thought he'd have williams out of there in the first

    rest can wait till morning for me...perfect timing with moraga up next


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,350 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    Expected, pack it in Jake.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,350 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    Okay he actually did retire :)
