    Chad just couldn’t keep him down which is strange. My acca put the window . Ah well, I can shout for Gus now !

    Great fight that. Volkanovski looked top class, first time I can recall seeing him fight. Good stand up, high energy and excellent at getting back up after a takedown.

    Mad. Volkanivski was a prop.

    he played league where they don't scrum.

    they go through the motions but don't actually scrum.

    That makes more sense, was still built like a brick ****house and weighed like 100kg.

    Whatever he played the boys heavy hands he caught chad with some big shots and his energy to escape a RNC and get onto his feet within 10 secs is impressive

    I think his leg strength from playing rugby all his life was huge tonight. Being able to stand up while Chad Mended is trying to hold you down is insane, Chad is an elite level wrestler. That was ridiculously impressive.

    Who remembers when Ilir Latifi came out at UFC Dublin with a Hurley? Always a friend in my eyes after that

    True story:
    Ilir Latifi was the person who stopped the lads on Khabib's bus from getting off by blocking the exit and telling the driver not to open it.
    Turns out he has some sort of private security training and it kicked in when it all kicked off.

    Ha. I didn't know that. He'd have made a fine corner back in his day

    Like Aldo's leg kicks being so good because he played soccer as a kid :pac:

    There wouldn't be much room to get around him if he was blocking a doorway anyway!

    Yeah. Still don't know why he was on the bus, he wasn't even on the card!

    Condit's Jiu-Jitsu is so slick.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,795 ✭✭✭dulux99


    Since when is Condit so submitt-able? People just seem to run through him these days

    What happened there with the PA?

    I thought that was just my stream. Did you get the buffer twice, the first time it was like a recording...

    Carlos has rubber arms, felt sure he would not move that arm for days, seemed fine afterwards.

    He was pure magic once upon a time, my absolute fav. I guess Cruz and Rogan are right here? Things have just progressed and the skill level has risen to places some of the old stock can't catch? Age too I guess, we've seen a lot of that tonight.

    Yeah it was weird, as they were waiting it was as if the result was being played pre-recorded over the broadcast.

    First female fight I've truly looked forward too. Should be a great fight I fancy Nunes late KO but wouldn't be supprised if cyborg completely dominates

    If Nunes can make it past the first 3 rounds, I fancy her to win it. But agreed, wouldn't be surpirsed if Cyrbog smashes her inside 1 or 2 rounds.

    Can't see how Nunes wins personally. Then again I'm consistently wrong so what the feck do I know
