    30-27 was just crazy.

    A draw would've been the fairest result there tbh.

    As a McGregor bandwagoner as were called. I'm enjoying these fights so far and I'm learning. Pearson's constant pressure won that one for him imo.

    Yep, but there's very few draws every. It was nice to see a 10-10 though from one judge.

    No bandwagoners around here pal. You've simply discovered a great sport. Enjoy.

    Cheers. Ah I was getting interested in the sport when I was a young fella in the Chuck Liddell days but kinda drifted away from it. McGregor drew me back in and I'm hooked ever since.

    The McGregor Bandwagoners only come along fight week asking what time hes fighting then post garbage for 3 days after the fight with their expert analysis and then disappear till his next fight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    10-9 Andrade. Takedown the difference. Neither fighter looks great on their feet.

    The 2 lads are gassed here somebody getting ko'd now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    I have it all square going into the final round but you never know what those judges are thinking towards the end of the round.

    Walshs corner are doing a great job.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    29-28 Andrade. Walsh can't deal with those takedowns at all.

    What a frustrating round, blanket mode.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,874 ✭✭✭✭Pudsy33


    29-28 Walsh for me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    Just an aside to the fights. Couple of the new lads watching the fights tonight, you don't need to justify how long you've been watching MMA for.

    Nobody cares. Or at least they shouldn't care.

    ----

    Back to the fights... Is that Rin Nakai who Miesha Tate fought a couple years ago? I was wondering where the hell she ended up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 728 ✭✭✭Morpork


    Anyone Googled Rin Nakai yet?

    Mark Hunt is a combat legend,same with frank big fan of his grappling but Hunt is probably my favourite hw alongside rothwell crazy lifestory pulling for him tonight first round ko hopefully.

    That's her, she hasn't fought since. Not sure why though.

    I said I wouldnt stay up for this but feck it in for the penny in for the pound.

    The size difference here is disturbing me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    This is a horrible mismatch.

    Yep, I do. It stood out to me when searching through the odds. You never know what you're going to get from Ross but I'd certainly have him as the favourite here. Most analysts seem to fancy Pearson here too. I'll be having a small punt.

    Good man Ross. :cool:

    If I'm honest I had Laprise up 29-28 but after losing that decision to Sanchez a few years ago (the worst decision of all time in the UFC IMO) I'd never begrudge him getting the nod in a close one.

    If somebody walked in on me watching this fight I'd have some explaining to do,its like a cartoon anime fighter in real life,shes like a pokimon.

    I pick the Asian in the fantasy picks, usually I watch the weigh ins while I'm ding this picks, didn't this time. Smith is terrible but I didn't realise there was that much of a size difference.

    I stand corrected. Nikai really holding her own. Good 2nd round. 19-19

    Smith never fails, terrible fighter. If Nakai gets it to the ground she could nick it.
