    Really weird but tonights fight between Drakkar Klose and Stephens is off from the push at the weigh ins

    https://twitter.com/drakkarklose/status/1383570412622082051?s=20
    That's odd, I wonder if he could sue Stephens now?

    If he weighed in, he's due his show money.
    He'd be best off collecting that and rescheduling. Otherwise he'd invite all sorts of
    countersuits


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,366 ✭✭✭Still Ill


    That was such a great fight.. Reyes showed a lot of heart with those counters, but you won't see many better KOs than that!


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,000 ✭✭✭✭Rjd2


    Jiri is going to make a lot of money for Dana and to lesser extent himself:o

    Superstar for sure.

    Yeah. There’s spinning shït is usually thrown as a winging hopeful shot after a sloppy missed shot.

    That was a one of the better ones. He missed the first, but stepped past Reyes to base before the second.
    Mad thing was he was probably losing the round 60 seconds before that. (Dropped to a knee, guillotine, up kick)

    What a great card that was. Feel bad for Reyes, he had a pretty good performance and took a fair few heavy shots, but that was a brutal knockout and brings him to 3 straight losses.

    Randa Markos has to be gone at this stage. She's really not UFC quality material.

    He probably gets a pass on the two title shots. Certainly the Jones one.
    And there's a real chance he just lost to the next champ.

    If Jiri wins against Jan, which is a clearly the move.
    Reyes will have faced 3 champs in a row, and it shouldn't affect his tenure in the UFC.

    I'd agree, and I like Jan but Jiri looked lethal last night.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,345 ✭✭✭Homelander


    The only thing is that Jiri was fairly hittable, was even wobbled slightly by Reyes at one point. He wouldn't take as many shots from Jan as he did with Reyes and come out of it. Would be a tremendous fight.

    Watched the fight with my dad and he'd normally never watch UFC from one end of the year to another, even he said "Tell me when that lad is fighting again".

    Dom Reyes should hang them up.

    An agonising loss against Jones followed by 2 brutal knock outs.

    I'd be broken

    Carlston Harris with an impressive debut. One to watch.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,710 ✭✭✭Joeseph Balls


    Would have loved to see the end of rd2 in that one replayed. Thought Nchukwi tapped in the guillotine before the bell


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Cards been alright considering it lost more or less the only fights I was looking forward too, filler until the boxing to be fair.


  • Registered Users Posts: 37,490 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Now it's definitely time for Cowboy to retire.


  • Registered Users Posts: 360 ✭✭dockysher


    He should have retired after mcgregor lose. Cerrone past it for years. Mcgregor living in that cerrone win last 2 years shows you where he's at too

    McGregor isn't fighting tonight.

    Cowboy is done, Morono is a poor fighter.

    Noone said he was. Just said he living off mentioning that won over cerrone to hype himself up. Just shows you where cerrone was at with his performances since. He looked terrible tonight


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,004 ✭✭✭FileNotFound


    Canelo v BJS next.

    Shocking poor decision to stop in the last fight.

    Main event on soon. Hopefully the main ufc even end first


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,004 ✭✭✭FileNotFound


    Boxing stil not even at walk out.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,004 ✭✭✭FileNotFound


    Boxing fight time

    Not actually sure he beats Diego atm.:eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,436 ✭✭✭bugler


    That end to the Cerrone fight was quite a difficult watch.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,755 ✭✭✭✭Hello 2D Person Below


    If Cerrone was a horse he'd have been sent to the glue factory long ago.

    It's at the stage now where Dana should be stepping in and saying enough is enough.

    After Conor fight he only had a couple of fights left on contract.

    Should be done now surely.

    This fight was only at WW as it was Diego.
    He’s going back to LW for one more.

    Prelims off to an early start tonight, very nice

    Made that look really really easy

    Barnett shouldn't be in the UFC that's a horrible mismatch.

    Ah I didn't realize he was a late replacement, that makes sense.
