villakram Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 God fooping dammit... flying out this evening. Better be no more fools hard sparring or trying any other silly shit. Cormier "playing" soccer in the embedded while Stipe played silly games with a metal detector had me freaking. Such a pity, as Ortega looked like a legit contender Alcohol to the rescue I suppose!

Those are maincard fighters any other day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never seemed to throw any punches with any conviction at all. Jackson was equally crap too. He's just not a very gifted athlete. Good enough to be coordinated around a wrestling ring but that's it, it's not as though he was a stand out at anything at high school or college level, the acumen was never there.

Tegis Posted July 8, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted July 8, 2018 Helluva feat by Cormier. 2 weight champ. The Lesnar shit though, sigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Congrats to DC. To win 2 belts at the same time is really impressive. As for Ngannou vs Lewis: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LakotaDakota Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Couldn't have been more wrong if i tried As soon as Rountree KO's Saki you got the feeling it was another night for the underdogs. There were some big prices on the guys that actually won. A 5 fold acca on those would have been very nice indeed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tegis Posted July 15, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted July 15, 2018 (edited) How the flipping heck did he pull that off??? And Northcutt is ridiculously explosive.

BOF Posted July 17, 2018 Moderator Share Posted July 17, 2018 So, Conor versus Khabib at UFC 229 seemingly (or maybe 232). The cynic in me thinks something will get in the way of those 2 meeting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I hope it happens. Not much has kept me very interested in UFC for a few years. But I would not miss that fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tegis Posted July 22, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted July 22, 2018 After 9 straight decisions on the card, I think Smith just introduced himself as a opponent for Gus in two weeks. Poor Rua. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakotaDakota Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) BT Sport have lost the rights to show UFC (& NBA basketball). UFC 230 will be the last major PPV event broadcast in November before they will cease showing it completely on December 3rd. Looks like Eleven Sports have outbid them so that is yet another subscription required or whatever they are planning on doing as the only way they are actually viewable when they launch next month is through their website/app. Edited July 29, 2018 by LakotaDakota 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tegis Posted July 30, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted July 30, 2018 Bodyshots galore. Calgary got their moneys worth. Even zombie-Eddie couldn't survive the onslaught. The moronic 12-6 elbow didn't help 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villakram Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Great event, love me some body shot ko's... did appalling numbers on Fox though. I really wonder what will happen when the ESPN deal starts up as some new input is required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Massive fight. Maybe the biggest in ufc history. I think khabib wins as McGregor hasn't had a fight in around 2 years. McGregor should havw perhaps had a warm up fight first. But no one can question conors guys and bravery. This is a very dangerous fight for him.

These guys landed to learn how to get this sport out to the masses more, not let existing partnerships die due to short term tv money. I'd bet most of the UK fan base watches through bt, losing this along with the slipping standards will lose them a big market here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Beautiful jab and then clincial finish DJ's long standing title reign comes to an end in what was a decent battle and sets up a possible trilogy! TJ cemented his place at the top of the tree in the featherweight division with a clincial knockout of NO LOVE! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
