Can't remember the last exciting flyweight fight I've seen

Cejudo vs Johnson was epic IMO

Do they have an ad between every round?

Yes it's very irritating. Don't see any corner advice between rounds

Looks like it to me.

Sergio's chest tattoo is in league with Alan Belcher's :pac:

a fluke that I even looked at the odds beforehand tbh

actually thought formiga might have been a slight fav to win but it
was 1/2 pettis 6/4 formiga

Pettis higher ranked and I actually favoured him for the fight. He looked like he froze up in there

Jesus Christ FOX only show punches and legs being thrown, everything else is ads. No promos, no interviews, no corner talk. Just ads.

eeloe

That was terrible, staying standing for that long with someone on your back.

A forward roll would have put so much pressure on his knee that he’d have to release.

McGregor's odds seem to be lengthening. 7/4 now on Betfair Exchange (2.7)

Looks like all the late money is piling on Khabib

never rated him that highly but I've always lost money following him or backing against him...till now
I don't think long term he'll ever fight for a belt

I had one of my biggest bets ever on him to beat caceres in his debut when he got subbed with 21 secs to go...was up on the scorecards

thought morena would beat him handy also but that was a one sided pts win for pettis

thought benavidez was a certainty to beat pettis

It’s over. Khabib won, rear naked choke in the third. McGregor was dominated.

Unlucky mate.

The way he talks about fights, the passion, the enthusiasm! The way he gets you pumped up due to his own excitement. He's a fan himself. A bigger fan than you and he's going to give you all that energy!

There'll never be another Joe Rogan!

While we're talking bets, what's the over/under on variations on "Lads, what time is Conor fighting?" being asked on the thread before the Main Event?

10?

herrig waterson tough to call 11/10 v 4/6 but 11/8 v 6/4 to win on pts

that's what Id have expected to see on both more or less in the previous fight


these two will probably cancel each other out...saying that with 9 sub wins 3pts wins and 3kos waterson is 9/1 to win by ko or sub with bet 365

Karate hottie about to get bullied here I reckon

I'd take the 11/8 on Felice

Herrig 4/5 on Betfair seems like a great price - big size difference between them

MrStuffins

Waterson might be too small here.

Which is a shame because I can't stand Herrig!

I believe so. She would be champion if UFC had a 105 division but Herrig is a big 115er
