    Delusional indeed! Confidence is great if you can back it up.

    I couldn't watch all of this if I'm being honest

    Figueiredo and Co better watch out! :o

    If he couldn't name the UFC flyweights it's because he's a thick.

    DJ was a few months into his ONE contract at that stage and he couldn't name even Cejudo.

    Gimp.

    The McGregor era has ruined the lot of the them. The only one making any money is Gallagher.

    Dylan Tuke summed it well on a recent podcast - they all to be posting future world champ this and that while the reality is they are not even the best on the mat that day.

    Was Dylan not self-promoting in a similar fashion not too long ago?
    Maybe If he’s changed his perspective from the outside one he changed location.

    Yeah the fight itself was sketchy, but then the big fella stays on the ground while she stands on him for a photo...

    Turned it off before that part. I was basing it on the fight and the "knockdown". Photo absolutely confirms it.

    I done the exact same. As soon as he was lying flat on his belly not getting up, enough was enough for me. Embarrassing stuff.

    Ah FFS! Khamzat has Covid according to this site. I hope he can recover in time or maybe they move his fight to a week or 2 later? Didn't they move Hollands fight who had it?

    This is from a Swedish site so I am guessing it is true.

    The fights been scraped completely so I'd say they are just pushing back Edwards/Chimaev

    Agreed. On TUF she was actually a naturally pretty girl, albeit with an oversized boob job.

    Now (according to my wife who knows more about these things than I do) she seems to have had her lips, cheeks, eyes and possibly arse altered and she's starting to look a complete state.

    I remember Rousey giving Tate stick about having a boob job and whilst that was just Rousey being her usual bitchy self, I could see her point. When you're in an industry where you get kicked and punched for a living, why have implants put in your chest that are going to be battered constantly? Not to mention the loss of flexibility, and the surgically added weight to a body that already struggles getting down to fight weight.

    Same goes for Ostovich. Why spend a ton of money on adjusting your facial features, when you're going to earn a crust getting punched in the bake?

    It would be like buying an expensive new motor and going stock car racing in it.

    I'd assume at her age that getting the lips, cheeks, eyes done means fillers rather than implants. The difference being fillers being temporary.

    Agree re:boobjob. For fighters that struggle at least

    Temporary yes, but still souping up your face and then going into a fist fight doesn't make a heap of sense to me.

    If fighting had an impact on them, then sure I don't see the point. But I've no clue sure that it does, or doesn't.

    Well fighting can certainly have an impact on your looks, short and long term. I reckon I'd wait til after the fight before spending money on fillers.
