    I've honestly never ever heard a fighter say "I don't want to get knocked out" in between rounds.

    You're in the wrong game if you're afraid of being knocked unconscious.

    Great brawl

    Draw for me. Last round was a 10-8 if the new judging criteria is in play which I believe it is.

    lol what a scrap


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,924 ✭✭✭wonderfullife


    Dos Santos landed by far the heavier shots, should take it 29-28

    I hope Almeida can do me a favour in the next fight. I did get a few wins tonight though.

    There's the greatest welterweight of all time according to himself hopefully he's wearing that Brazilian backpack next weekend :)

    I don't think maia has a prayer of beating him tbh, he's the worst possible match up for maia imo.
    That'll probably sound ridiculous to some but that's how I see it.
    I want maia to win so bad it hurts if i'm being honest.

    Going for a clean-sweep for the away team - Almeida by KO round 2, Cummins KO (maybe by elbows) Round 2, Elkins by decision, Gastelum KO Round 3.

    Maia will drag him to the ground and choke him out like he does to every other bad matchup :pac:

    You're sleeping on how big Maia is. He's a proper middleweight he makes Woodley look like a lightweight.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,924 ✭✭✭wonderfullife


    Almeida looks to have an Amir Khan chin :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,350 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    Rivera round anyways, 10-8?


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]

    Good scrap, Riveira shades it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,352 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Great fight, Rivera 29-27 for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,479 ✭✭✭tinpib


    Entertaining fight.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,348 ✭✭✭✭ricero


    Great fight. 2 warriors.

    A draw ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,352 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    30-26, don't see how you can give that. :confused:


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    pmsl at them cards.

    You're sleeping on how big Maia is. He's a proper middleweight he makes Woodley look like a lightweight.

    He's lost to lads he couldn't take down like weidman, silva, rory and if he's forced to stand with woodley he won't be winning also imo

    I can't remember the last time woodley was taken down either and his whole gameplan will revolve around not being taken down so it'll be one hell of a borefest.
    I predict maia will do well to get woodley down more than once.
    I do hope you are right and and I am wrong however

    It still amazes me to this day that jake managed to beat both of these.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,352 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Rivera is a solid striker and a good wrestler but Cody, Cruz or TJ would all beat him fairly handily imo.
