gy diamond Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Seething with jealously. Enjoy that, couldn't have picked a better one to head to Vegas for. Did you get tickets face value? If so how much did they cost? Cost about £300 each for the tickets, a lot further back than I would like but it'll be worth it for the experience I think. Got booked into the Bellagio pretty cheap as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be brilliant regardless of seat to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sense of belonging Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 I'm a complete casual fan, presume the fight this weekend will start at a similar time to boxing fights in Vegas? 4-5ish? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday night in US and Sunday morning here. Main card will start about 3am with main event around 4.45/5am. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradHorse Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 This fight seems to be attracting a lot of casual fans (which is great, by the way), so for anyone who doesn't know, The UFC Youtube channel has a lot of good content in the lead up to fights that let you get to know all the fighters on the card(s). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Central Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Me and my mate have just got tickets for 194 next weekend. Flying out to Vegas on Friday and come back Monday. Can't wait for it. You won the lottery? Jealous. Can't wait for this weekend there is going to be some phenomenal fights. The closer it gets I fancy Rose, Chad and Aldo in the 3 main events. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Central Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Is the Fight Night with Paige Van Zant not on British tv and just on fight pass ? Fight pass only, well worth the monthly fee in my opinion. All the old TUF episodes, live events and multiple old events on it too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No not quite, my mate just split up with his girlfriend and they had been saving to buy a house, now that he no longer needs the money for that we decided to go this weekend. Unfortunately we get there too late to go to the Edgar vs Mendes card. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banana Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Been watching all the build up videos now, getting pumped for a phenomenal week of MMA matchups. The contrast is striking between the VLogs of Aldo, McGregor, Weidman and Rockhold. Aldo and his cronies pumped to f**k, smacking shit in the gym still. McGregor all about getting his movement flowing. Weidman doing family and serious stuff. Rockhold being a teenager. Who's everyone got for the major fights on each card? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrcat1990 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 The main event is incredibly hard to call which is what makes it such an exciting match up. The fact I have money on Aldo by Decision and McGregor to win in first round speaks volumes about my clueless prediction. Edging towards McGregor knocking him out though. Co main is Weidman by points for me. A potentially great fight to be had there. Slightly overlooked is Nelson v Maia. If it turns into a grappling match it could see some sexy as f**k ji jitsu results. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond_for_life Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Alright guys sorry to be an ignorant c**t is there an equivalent to Sky Box office for MMA fights. Never really watched before but want to start getting into the sport and after watching the build up of McGrogor and reading this thread I really fancy watching this weekends cards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
