ASOT wrote: » He's split his training between dca and Charlestown this camp anyway. Think Collies in his corner tomorrow along with Owen (I could be wrong though). Seems to be getting a great mix and improving really well. Pushing for it big time on ones social media, but like you said he needs to get through his fight next month. Will be an absolute cracker, hoping for another big elbow win. Surely would have a fight with One sown up them! It's mad how far he's come

Nonsense stuff. On the back of that Myles done an interview about how he disliked his time at SBG when he was a young lad, never felt part of the crowd and didn't like Conor at all. He left and joined Team Ryano. That's about the extent of it from what I know.

Subcomandante Marcos wrote: » No he wasn't. Myles trains regularly in San Jose and has for ages, he wasn't there as part of Khabibs camp at all, they just use the same gym and are around the same size so they spar sometimes. He left SGB to get better coaching with higher standard training partners.

Whelo79 wrote: » Haha, I've been waiting for the usual SBG begrudgers to come in and have their say. Not one bad word said about any non SBG fighter, you lads are so see through its comical. It's a glorified card of similar standard to anything else put on in Europe outside of the UFC, what's the issue? Nobody is pretending it's anything else. It's the best available pro Irish fighters all on the one card under the Bellator banner and ticket prices reflect that. Again, what's the issue?

That’s before you even look at some of the prices on the undercard. They’re hand-picked matchups with the intention of every home fighter winning given the amount of investment that Bellator have made in essentially buying out BAMMA and now being forced to find a way to build fighters who probably aren’t worth it or deserving of it. Harsh, especially from someone behind a computer screen who wouldn’t have the balls to do what they do, but from a promotional viewpoint that’s the reality for all but a couple. It will also be annoying when all or all but one of the hometown lads win against relative cans and we constantly here how it’s “on a par with the night of UFC Dublin” forever more. It shouldn’t even be comparable. That said, live events are really enjoyable. The arena will be sold out, there’s hours worth of action, the atmosphere will be good and the tickets aren’t expensive. It’s a great day and night out regardless of the matchmaking.

Whelo79 wrote: » A lot of that pricing is set on where the bookies expect the majority of money to be going and where the actual money has gone. It's not really reflective of the person's chances of winning. You can't judge matchmaking on bookies odds here in my opinion. Not many Irish people will be backing against the Irish fighters.
