    That's a shame, was looking forward to watching Hall - such a wizard on the ground.

    Still, shows the risks the UFC are taking with a fighter having shown up with the virus.

    I'll be tuning in, as it's the only sport up and running worldwide bar the Taiwanese baseball league or something, but it's still probably too soon. Not that anyone was going to talk sense into Dana White.

    You’re thinking of Ryan Hall I assume? It’s actually Uriah who was scheduled to fight tonight, Ryan’s a featherweight.

    Personally I’d rather watch Ryan too, a wizard on the ground indeed.

    Anyone have experience of downloading a sky recording to a tablet?

    I know you can download some recordings to watch offline but not all.

    Never tried with sport before.

    I'm working half 8 to 4 tomorrow and I want to watch at work.

    Yes! I was thinking of Ryan Hall. I was scratching my head a bit as to why he was fighting Jacare. I knew he fought Penn but wasn't sure what weight it was at.

    So just on Jacare, his wife had covid-19 and he told the UFC and apparently they told him it was ok. Like you are potentially playing with people's lives here.

    No moral grandstanding by me or any one of us is gonna stop this card taking place, so I'll be staying up and enjoying it with as much enthusiasm as any card.

    Really looking forward to this later!

    Wouldn't be a huge UFC fan but with no live sports and being off work on a sat night for a change a few bottles and this show is very appealing ðŸ˜

    amazing grappling from Bryce Mitchell so far, might be a good match for Ryan Hall?

    Mitchell was brilliant but Rosa's defense made it a great fight. You don't get points for that but his defense was pretty awesome.

    Bryce Mitchell was absolutely clinical with that BJJ. So fluid in his transitions, incredible to watch. And he never stopped, he was busy for the full 15 minutes.

    This fight be will be very boring after the last fight with Michelle doing her level best to keep it on their feet and Carla trying to find a way to get it to the ground.
