    He'll more than likely be commentating at it if he isn't fighting

    If Poirier v Iaquinta doesn't happen; Felder v Iaquinta in Dublin?

    According to Wikipedia, "unlike the UFC, Bellator does allow its fighters to compete in other promotions, so many fighters on this list may appear in MMA events outside of Bellator" so maybe we could see the likes of Dillon Danis, James Gallagher, Paul Redmond and the rest on this card?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_current_Bellator_fighters

    I wonder would the UFC offer Artem a one-off fight contract?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,309 ✭✭✭xtal191


    Nobody from Bellator will be fighting on it

    Looks like Till fancies it according to his Instagram.

    Said he is hoping fight in May but there has been talks about headlining Dublin also.

    Ah cool. Would be happy with that

    Dana White said in the post fight press conference that Till would most likely headline.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,166 ✭✭✭fitzparker


    Id say, Till to headline

    then maybe use the oirish connection and bring Feldor and O'Malley in

    Add the SBG stable of Makwan and Gunni

    wouldnt be a bad card then.

    That would be a hell of a card for a euro fight night


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,335 ✭✭✭✭callaway92


    Sean O' Malley is a PPV player from now on I'd say. Won't be midcard on an Irish Fight Night card.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,166 ✭✭✭fitzparker


    Not sure about that, Saturday was only his second UFC fight.

    Would it not be better for his career to be main/co main on a Fight night card then be 1st fight on PPV main card?

    They made the move very quickly on Adesanya,so I'd expect similar here.

    He did the Main on a fight-night card in his third fight so it could be similar, but they're going all guns blazing here on O' Malley.

    He was on the main card for UFC 222

    Exactly - That was a weak card, so it made sense to have him on the main card compared to this past weekend.

    He won't be on the Ireland card for sure is all I'm saying.

    I think a few are getting carried away with the potential quality of this card. No reason why they would put on huge fights. They know it will sell out easy.

  • Registered Users Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    That is a surprisingly big fight! Tempted to fly over for it now!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,125 ✭✭✭dashoonage


    I'm still holding out hope for Pendred

    Wow - that’s a really good fight


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,651 ✭✭✭US2


    Wow. If I get fight pass or fightclub whatever it it's called, am I guaranteed tickets?

    You're never guaranteed tickets. But Fightclub improves chances dramatically


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,166 ✭✭✭fitzparker


    Great fight if they can pull it off.

    Then 4 weeks out Whittaker gets injured and we end up with Ian Heinish

    I had Fight Club access for the McG v Khabib fight but couldn't get tickets (and tried very doggedly).

    Got them on the second day, though, via the presale code that comes with (free) email subscription.
