    $150K if he wins plus potential Perfomance bonuses. Plus additional PPV payments. plus suite accomodation and food paid for. PLus sponsorship. A couple of months after Ireland.

    Brazil on the horizon.

    Nice life

    That's a harsh point deduction by Herzog.

    I thought he was just getting warned. Saying that 2 nut shots so quick is bad.

    Was pretty sure he'd deduct a point the next time it happened.

    Brian Ebersole is always entertaining. Should be a fun fight between himself and John Howard.

    Yeah he was apart from his last 2 or 3. Really loved watching him before that.

    agree

    really like ebersole, fun fighter who's rarely in any trouble, was a breath of fresh air when he came to the ufc with all his antics
    I would be amazed if this didnt go the distance

    Have to say lads. The more UFC I watch. The more I get hooked.

    Looking forward to the Cruz fight.

    Been warned by Mrs googled eyes that if I stay up for the whole thing I'm on kiddie duty all day tomorrow.

    Should be worth it :eek::pac:

    10-9 Ebersole, 10-9 Howard so far in my book.

    ebersole was 11/4 to win this at the start of the 3rd with ladbrokes
    problem was the max they would allow me is 4 euro :confused:

    Conor's accent has gotten even more bizarre. I assume the UFC are asking him to put on that accent so people can understand him... At least I hope that's what they've asked him to do.
