[I am not exposed]

That's an awful promo poster. Looks like Spann is sleeping, and Smith is going to wake him up with a kiss!

 

[CDJ]

I like the lettering but yeah lol

some interesting prospects on the card. Impa, Arman, Tafon, Zhu Rong, Buckley

Nchukwi is moving up to 205. I thought he was too bulky at 185 so this could help him. We shall see if he can keep up with the reach/striking of Mike Rodriguez

 

[m9]

That's a lot of fights.

 

[MMC]

Gotta say I'm more excited for Yoel vs Davis

Gotta say I'm more excited for Yoel vs Davis

Me too and I fully expect that fight to suck. Romero is more than willing to sit back and wait for a mistake and Davis doesn't make a lot of mistakes. Not a great stylistic matchup in terms of entertainment IMO...but there's not much on this UFC card. There's some names sprinkled throughout, but there's not one fight that I gotta see.

 

[CDJ]

Phil Davis is the king of not taking damage and having boring fights, he will be able to fight until he’s 50 if he wants to

 

[CDJ]

Zhu Rong is the one weight miss

 

[CDJ]

Carlston Harris is fun

 

[I am not exposed]

That was so one sided.

 

[CDJ]

I don’t like the Buys’

20-18 Jackson so far

30-27 Jackson

 

[MMC]

Should I add the Yoel fight to the title? I imagine a lot of people will be watching both events

 

[Chaels Arms]

Felt like Zho dragged that out trying to go for the submission. Could have gotten the KO earlier.

What time is that starting?

 

[CDJ]

Nchukwi looking good at 205

 

[MMC]

What time is that starting?

Pretty sure it’s prelims at 4/7 ET and main card at 7/10, someone can correct me if I’m wrong

 

[Avs_19]

Impressive work by Buckley in the third round. I have no idea how the first two rounds would've been scored but Buckley really went after it and actually started putting combinations together.

 

[Killahpunk]

Buckley with another big finish.

 

[CDJ]

Well done Buckley

 

[I am not exposed]

The punch when he was falling down was the killer blow.

 

[Chaels Arms]

What a crazy fight. Can't believe Maness came back from that flash knockout.

 

[Avs_19]

Crazy comeback. He was probably two seconds away from being finished at the end of the first.

 

[I am not exposed]

What a crazy fight. Can't believe Maness came back from that flash knockout.

I was so confused I thought my stream had messed up.

 

[chicagoskycam]

Maness saved my parlay. What a comeback

 

[I am not exposed]

This guy looks like a discount Niko Price.
