Delighted to see his minimal risk, scaredy cat tactics fail. I mean he's one of the best martial artists in the world, he has over 100 fights between his kickboxing and MMA careers and has lost 8 of them. If he's not as good as folk make out then nobody is. He might be into stuff other people find weird but we should remind ourselves that Sean Strickland used to be a Nazi, has said previously he hopes he kills someone in a fight and generally acts like a horrible c**t in his every day life. He's a guy who's never beaten a top 5 fighter until now and is a pretty limited fighter so I'm hoping someone quickly batters him and sends him back down the rankings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poatan to deal with that gimp and set up another match with Izzy IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure Pereira will drop back down right now, he might because he knows he can win the belt with his eyes closed but I think he'll go for LHW first. I reckon Du Plessis will get a shot next. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Du Plessis would work because obviously even if Adesanya sits on his arse till after that fight, its an obvious box office affair to put him in with either Du Plessis or the Strickland rematch. Dana probably delighted with how this went tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moonster Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 What do you do when your biggest star breaks his leg, uses some dubious procedures to recover from it and then can't produce clean drug tests to fight again? You simply get rid of the drug testing agency it would seem. https://www.google.com/amp/s/theathletic.com/4954512/2023/10/11/ufc-usada-conor-mcgregor-agreement/%3famp=1 The UFC say they aren't trying to be like the WWE but they just are. Rules can't get in the way of a story line. A complete shambles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J_Stewart Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Really looking forward to this as first fight was excellent, but have a sneaky feeling Islam might win it a bit more comfortably seeing as Volk is in on such short notice. Should be class either way though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Doctor gets called for a concussion test, doctor struggles to get his attention, he doesn't immediately answer simple questions and when he goes answer doesn't give clear answers back. Gets called off and then approaches things like been cleared to be put in, he then acts aggressively to a situation that doesn't need it. That breaches so many concussion tests, he's clearly not fit to fight, not tonight, not this week and a good chance for not a few months. Commentary is over why the doctor didn't give him a few minutes and maybe withdrew him unnecessary? Absolutely ridiculous.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Jon Jones is out for UFC 295 and now Big Aspinall has a shot for the interim belt and a straight line to Jones.... No idea what Miocic is going to do. I see no mention of him taking a replacement and Jones is going to be out for 8 months, at which point hel want his belt back presumably. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Stipe but he's getting old. I just don't see him beating Jones, especially another 8 months down the line. Stipe v winner of aspinall and pavlovich would make sense. That's a great replacement fight tbh, both quite young still and hungry! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always thought that although he was at least a bit of a bell end, Covingtons was a very obvious act to try and sell. What he said to Edwards crossed the line for any sane human and for that reason, let's have him head kicked so hard has has to pay to get back in a la Usman please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely an act, there were large parts of his early UFC career where he was very humble and respectful. I think the problem is Colby is now forgetting it's an act and has perhaps embraced it too much. I'm no fan of Masvidal attacking him in a public place but again Colby thought he could get away with talking about his family and ended up needing dental surgery. To mention someones dead dad in the lead up to a fight, when there hasn't really been any personal back and forth, is the behaviour of an absolute scumbag. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we see similar to McGregor snivelling "it was just business" whilst Khabib was kicking his c**t in. Its only "just business" if both guys are in in the act. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
