Look at that, not named by State but named by City. Go Dublin.

Tetchy lads! Since UFC hasnt been to Germany, Scotland or Croatia before they say them by the country name, but if they say "Ireland" then people, especially Americans, could think Belfast again. I asked Dana when i met him in London about Dublin and he said they definitely are going to do it and its very high on his priorities being from Boston and all that.

Country folk and their anti-Dublin complex!! At least wait for the GAA Champiuonship to start and u can root against us before ye start with this ****e eh?!

Actually, I believe it's the other way around in general. "Country folk". You'd swear we all live in fields.

:D

Haha. Dont worry, I have family from various parts of Ireland, I meant non-Dublin people who when u answer the questions "Where are u from" with "Dublin" will then treat u differently as if that defines who u are as a person. And it happens a lot.

But what i said before that was my main point, if they had said "Ireland" people could have thought Belfast. Not gonna get into a Dublin vs everyone else debate, was just sayin ur post had an attitude about it which wasnt really necessary, as did mine so we'll leave it at that!!

Peace. (sorry fianna!!)

I presume you mean Dermot McGrath the opponent of the guy, we dare not say his name? I think he stands as good a chance as anyone.

that's rapid. the dog was cracking me up. your man is muck but if he gets on the show fair play to him. can't blame him for trying.

however, it's a pity tuf is so much more about marketeering and getting your mug on the tv then fighting.

If he's the head coach of a Mixed Martial Arts gym why has he posted only training footage (the one fight looks like it was in his own gym)... were are clips of his MMA fight footage (KO's, Submissions, Decisions?) What's his MMA Fight Record???

I've never seen him fighting in any of the MMA shows that are advertised on here.

In fairness though if a man puts a video on youtube is he not inviting comment? It's a bit cheeky expecting people not to comment on that. Think that lad wanted to be a martial arts movie star or something before did he? Same bloke?

It seems so by the looks of his videos.

Then the MMA/UFC bandwagon came along.

no 1 is discussing a club, just a fella's merits to be on the ufc or the tuf series..the clip is a joke and the skills are poor also.

It was an amateur mma fight by the looks of it, no head shots standing or on the ground.
