[CDJ]

Main card is relatively interesting. Not super high end, but intriguing.

Billy Q vs Moggly will be a fun one

if Gamrot beats Stephens we may not see Stephens fight in the UFC again

 

[16Skippy]

Just found out today that this Figueiredo on the prelims is the other Figueiredo's brother.

 

[m9]

Main card really misses Max/Yair.

Main card really misses Max/Yair.

elite fight night card if it was still there

Max not being able to hit that dude with a tsunami sucks for all of us. I think he would pour it on him

 

[pistolpete11]

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't most interested with Meisha's return.

It's a bummer about Max/Yair, but Islam has a chance here to capitalize on being the main event. If he dominates the way I think he will, the UFC is going to have to force somebody in the top 10, top 5 to take a fight with him.

It'll be Ferguson. Retirement fight for him

Tony would be stupid to take that fight, but I can't say you're wrong.

I don't think so. Islam vs RDA.. or vs Oliveira if he loses the belt.

 

[pistolpete11]

I don't think so. Islam vs RDA.. or vs Oliveira if he loses the belt.

Islam-Oliveira would be a great fight.

RDA struggles with strong wrestlers. Has for pretty much his entire career. Can't imagine he has turned that around at 36. It would be a solid name for Islam, but can't say I'd be excited to watch it.

 

[darko]

Baudot has no tank whatsoever

 

[CDJ]

Had Nascimento by sub so that’s sweet

 

[Chaels Arms]

This Jose Cuervo commercial with Gaethje and Chiesa is good but do we really need to see it every five minutes?

 

[bov]

He ain't Deiveson.

 

[Chaels Arms]

Morozov has much better stand up than I expected.

 

[darko]

Impressed by Morozov

 

[CDJ]

Morozov looked good. Makes sense, he’s pretty battle tested

He got me my money lost on Nascimento by sub back. All love for Sergey. Hail Kazakhstan. #1 exporter of potassium

got Billy Q (He survives the first and wins the next two, as is tradition with Billy). Also got a parlay with Gamrot/D-Rod/Rodolfo Vieira. Also have Gamrot and Islam by stoppage.

 

[16Skippy]

I already lost my parlay lol. But I have a bet on this fight and two others so there's still hope.

 

[CDJ]

I love it when they have their coaches cutting promos for them like they’re Brazilian Jimmy Hart

 

[CDJ]

Big fan of D-Rod. He may not ever be a title contender IMO but he will always be tough and fun

 

[Chaels Arms]

That was kind of weird to watch. It looked like Parsons wanted out of there as soon as he had that eye problem.

 

[CDJ]

Lol the panel is hysterical

chandler parroting chiesa on every prediction

 

[CDJ]

I love Billy Q!

 

[darko]

Agree with that stoppage
