    Fell asleep and missed the WW fight but, dare I say it, Wandy-Rampage was...good? 2-2 now and, I hate to say it, I'd watch them do it again.

    Ridiculous. It switched over right in the middle of Macdonald's walkout. My, em, service provider has alternative options so I'm ok, but that's pretty embarrassing.

    What u.s channels are showing it??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,718 ✭✭✭EagererBeaver


    It's on DAZN. Streaming service similar to Eleven. If you've a similar service, check your live events/ppv folder.

    Mousasi too big and too long so far, jabbing the head off him. Macdonald always marks easily but he was very red inside 90 seconds.

    Macdonald went for a takedown and ended up in guard. Mousasi mounted him pretty easily and battered him. All over early in the second. Borderline easy for mousasi.

    Love Rory but mousassi wayyyyyy to big. It was only a matter of time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,545 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Utter dominance from Mousasi in every area there, thought the fight would last longer but the ground and pound was vicious. Looks like Rory’s nose is broken again, it’ll never be right after what Lawler did to it. :(

    Gegard just too big, too strong, and too technically brilliant. The guard pass was fantastic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,348 ✭✭✭✭ricero


    Mousassi is the current goat middleweight.

    The ufc were bonkers to let him leave.

    I totally agree with you there. He's strong in every area.

    I do think that he wanted to leave the UFC though. He was annoyed with the way the title was held up by Bisping so walked away from them.


    Rory seems to take an enormous amount of damage. This is the third time at least he's gotten his nose broken, his last win ended up with him not being able to walk and he had to be carried out of the cage. And the Robbie beat down was simply brutal.
    He was an idiot for taking the fight and more unnecessary damage.

    That's one of the most depressing things I've ever seen...

    It looks like the fight was fixed but they accidentally told both guys they were the ones taking the dive :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Gegard was 200lbs in the cage on Saturday night, Rory was 189.4.

    it was a very notable size difference


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,501 ✭✭✭weemcd


    That was fairly effortless for Mousasi there at the weekend. He has to be the most relaxed/laid back fighter of all time. Plus his jab is feckin lovely.

    P.s Wand v Rampage was entertaining as long as it lasted, wayyyyy better than I thought it would be.

    Agree on both counts, although I had unsurprisingly low expectations for Rampage Wandy, so being entertained was a relatively simple thing

    Bob Sapp. What a punch bag.

    Just curious how much would bellator fighters be getting paid?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,326 ✭✭✭MartyMcFly84


    There is a wide range, but opening contracts could be $2,000 or $3,000 a fight all the way up to $300,000 which Rampage was paid for his last fight. Generally I believe Bellator is easier going with sponsors so fighters can make significantly more income from sponsors compared to the tight restrictions in the UFC.

    they could really do with him now, can't think of a fighter I'd rather of seen wear ufc gold along with rory who almost had it (add condit to that)

    whatever about beating the likes of weidman or souza he would have every chance of beating the type of fighters gastelum or whittaker are

    I thought they had that booked for The Point Depot?? I've seen a few Irish fighters recently signed by them posting about fighting in 8 weeks time etc. I just presumed they were talking about that Dublin card.
