    I never watched the prelims on FB before, but when they first started it wasn't the quality a bit sloppy?

    My lord it's amazing now, it's as good as watching a DVD


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 732 ✭✭✭Xlami


    Wow
    Aaron Rosa
    I'd say Jon Jones is really sweating after watching that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,905 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Ya perfect quality on FB. I think Velasquez is gonna KO/TKO Dos Santos. His pin point boxing plus power in those punches will be too much for JDS. Really can't see him moving from HW champ for a while.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,905 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Is the arena looking a bit empty? Sorry if this was already noticed.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,512 ✭✭✭Oh_Noes


    Probably the last time we see Bruce Leeroy...ever


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,512 ✭✭✭Oh_Noes


    Or probably not...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,127 ✭✭✭✭Leeg17


    Some great ground work this last round.

    -Yay, glad Leeroy one, he's one funny dude :)

    Ah bad finish with that headbut!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,257 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins


    Just got my lazy ass out of bed and tuned in to see that headbutt! Such an unfortunate end but he'll get a second chance like knowing how Dana and the boys do things.

    Don't signal to the ref that you are fine by making a 'tapping' motion!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,117 ✭✭✭SanoVitae


    Anyone got a good link - I wanna see Kid Yamamoto get another highlight reel KO tonight!

    Lol yeah it was like a reverse tap of some sort. Good call by the referee to make sense of that without seeing it back.

    What do you people think about the main and co-main?

    I'm definitely picking Bendo but not so sure about the HW title. Probably Valasquez but I'd like to see JDS get it.

    Just noticed on the Sky EPG that Setanta now have the UFC tonight down as a Free View. This never happened before so it looks like Setanta Ireland will be FREE for non Sky subscriber

    Incidentally the current programme is also Free View and working for me


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 68 ✭✭Secretariat


    It isn't often you see somebody get totally controlled by Bjj, fantastic to watch.

    You could hear the excitement in Joe's voice as he was commentating, totally in his element.

    5 bad fights in a row. Bad night for the UFC so far on their network tv debut.

    Nope. These fights aren't on network tv.

    it'll be a great night for them even if all these fights are boring and the Main event is like Rocky v Apollo!

    Only Cain vs Jnr is actually going to be shown on tv. Personally I thought Caceres vs Escovedo was a fun fight to watch, agree on the rest though.

    Ya, the main fight is bound to be a war, should be a succesful night for Fox.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    I know these fights wont be on FOX but its UFC's big night and the card hasn't been great. If Cain / JDS finishes early then Henderson / Guida is going to get shown.

    I thought I read somewhere that Dana said even if the Cain/JDS fight is a first minute knockout they're not going to show the Henderson/Guida or any other prelim fight?

    Really ? Strange move considering that Henderson / Guida is a title eliminator. Winner gets Edgar in Japan.

    Battle of the energizer bunnies!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,944 ✭✭✭✭scudzilla


    Rogan seems to be explaining a LOT more to the viewers tonight


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,512 ✭✭✭Oh_Noes


    This would have made a great five-round main event last weekend and Leben/Munoz would have made a great facebook headliner.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,117 ✭✭✭SanoVitae


    Amazing fight!!! :eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,127 ✭✭✭✭Leeg17


    Nice. Nice nice. One more for the accum.

    Fair play to both fighters, cracking fight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,061 ✭✭✭leggo


    Waaaayy too good of a fight to be stuck on Facebook. Edgar/Bendo is gonna be amazing though, best result after a close fight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 562 ✭✭✭thegift06


    iiiiiiitttttttttsssssssssssssss

    SHOWTIME


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,818 ✭✭✭Minstrel27


    Setanta is now free on Sky for the next hour


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,296 ✭✭✭✭gimmick


    What a fight. Wanted Clay to win, but Henderson was the better man.

    Guess the hendo/guida fight was too good to just leave off :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,296 ✭✭✭✭gimmick


    It was great, but I want to go to bed. Bring on the main.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,438 ✭✭✭✭El Guapo!


    Great fight.
    Henderson v Edgar is going to be a cracker!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,257 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins


    There was no way they couldn't show this fight. What an advert for MMA this is going to be!

    Good to see Brock still involved. Great for Fox too


  • Registered Users Posts: 802 ✭✭✭MarkJD


    Im confused. Is Setanta like behind the live coverage? All forums im reading showing Guida / Bendo fight over but its only showing 2nd round on Setanta now.

    Where are people watching it if so?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,905 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Setanta Ireland on Chorus at the moment, they are showing the bendo fight 1st and then onto the main

    Looks like it. Seemingly FOX currently doing a build up to the main event.
