    Pubs at capacity in Sydney. Think I was the last one to squeeze in. Definitely pushing the limits if Covid capacity and social distancing.

    Jon Anik just said that the McGregor fight was a title eliminator. We all assumed that was the case but don't think anything official was said about that.

    I'm always jealous of Australia having mid day Sunday UFC cards all the time. Glorious. Enjoy man.

    I just heard Macgregors fight will be 06.00..
    Is that reasonably true?

    Hope not.

    Yeah it’s a great timezone for UFC. POV are like FA Cup/Six Nations match at home. Even the fight night card are great with a hangover on the sofa.

    i've misunderstood that too before, main card usually starts around 3am, rather than main event, which is usually between 5/6

    What's the purse for Conor for this fight?

    Hope not.

    If it goes the distance it will probably be over about 6am but it'll start closer to 5am.

    Apparently it's $5m for McGregor and $1m for Dustin. Both are getting PPV points as well.

    I suppose that is possible but 5am is the time most are going with.

    The whole thing might be over by 6am I am guessing

    Is it OK if I don't devour frozen foods? I prefer my foods hot.

    Was hoping there would be lots of early KOs to speed this up but I'm not tired yet and I've really enjoyed the fights so far. Lot of impressive technical work and a few sack taps for good measure.

    What about ice cream? You can't eat that hot you crazy person.

    Damn the hype is in overdrive.

    Nothing like the Hellboy cold open to get the juices flowing.

    I miss Joe Rogan, why isn't he commentating on it? Has he left the UFC?

    He no longer does fight nights, or numbered events outside America

    The more fights that take place outside the US the better. I can't stand Rogan, he's pretty clueless.

    Early KO's won't speed up the event. The main card would always start at 3am even if we had 1st round KO's in every prelim fight unfortunately.

    Amanda Ribas definitely learned her English watching the Borat movies.
