OT: General UFC/MMA/Boxing discussion X

[Pompeius Magnus]

I see Jon Jones is in trouble again. This guy is such a clown show.

UFC champ Jon Jones faces battery charge after alleged strip club incident

I'm sure he won't even get a slap on the wrist from the UFC.

 

[TRG]

f*** Jon Jones

 

[Mike Mike Caron]

Funny thing, OAM hired a professional gambler to produce an advanced stats document on Tsarukyan. He said that it was really complete and even impressed the coaching staff at Tristar.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Michael Bisping opens up on horrific eye injury and why 'maybe that was God paying me back'

Very interesting read about just how badly Bisping's eye was damaged in the Belfort fight and how it affected the rest of his career.

Also, bump for tonight !

Have I seen this right, the Holloway and Edgar championship fight in set for 3 rounds?

It's for a belt so it has to be 5 rounds right? Where are you getting that?

 

[mariolemieux66]

They showed a board of the main card fights with the rounds for each fight and the Holloway vs Edgar was clearly showing 3 rounds.

Has to be a mistake or some computer glitch.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

No luck for Barriault .

OAM's striking lives and dies with that knee lol.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Kinda hard to judge, OAM has had his moments but he did have his back against the cage a lot. 3rd round is gonna decide it.

 

[MD thaivuN]

29-28 Tsarukyan imo

OAM's only positives in this fight was landing some single knees

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

That 3rd round probably did it for Tsarukyan.

Le UFC au Quebec est en FEU

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Yep, makes sense , he got it on control alone but it counts when nothing else is happening.

 

[MD thaivuN]

For a good athlete like OAM, he feels weirdly untalented. He just isn't dynamic offensively or doesn't have a good feel/instinct. When he was talking about getting advanced stats help, my reaction is thinking that he probably overthinks the sport too much.

He's not with the right camp if he wants to develop a more dynamic approach. I don't see him leaving Tristar though.

 

[MD thaivuN]

Neal is real good. Love how he sneaks that straight left at close range

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Almost got a Rocky II double KO.

 

[MD thaivuN]

Totally forgot Cyborg was fighting tonight

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Can someone tell me when the main fight will start ? I don't want to miss it, will arrive at home in 30 minutes.

Thank you.

Thank you.

The co-main will start in about 5 minutes, you should be fine .

Cyborg stealing someone's flag on her way to the octogon

 

[MD thaivuN]

Spencer seems tough. guess it's gonna be a repeat of the Tonya Evinger fight

 

[MD thaivuN]

Rogan going on about Cyborg's cardio, even though Cyborg's cardio is very good lol
