Paul Craig up. Madness will ensue.
Craig's forgot that they already faced off. Buffer shitting it.
Why the feck is Fili taunting with salsa dances after being slapped around like a cheap hooker?
Thought Fili won that tbh. Mad how poor the standard is on the card but its expected being in London.
Generally find myself supporting British fighters more often than not but I find it tough to support Molly McCann. Will be supporting Aspinall as he's a lancastrian.

Molly didn't last long 
Great stuff from Aspinall.
Too good
Tom Aspinall is like if you took Wonderboy, made him massive and gave him an elite ground game. He’s got them nice guy vibes
Aspinall is good but Jones would break his legs. I don't think Tom is ready for that fight yet. There are at least 3 or 4 HWs he needs to beat before he gets the title shot.
I dunno. The likes of Pavlovich, Blaydes, Gane and Jailton Almeida would all present tough and interesting challenges for Tom, but I don't think he necessarily needs to run through the whole division before he gets his shot. As it stands now Pavlovich is probably the only guy with a better case for the title shot after Stipe, and even that is marginal.
I personally do not think the fight between Jones and Stipe will happen. I hope I am wrong and you can quote me on this in november. Stipe hasn't fought for 2 years atm and he looked finished against Ngannou. I'm expecting some sort of pull out. I do love Stipe, at his peak he was arguanly the HW GOAT. You are right about Pav though, he's the dark horse for me in the HW division.
After seeing what Jones did to Ciryl after 3 years of inactivity, no one is beating him. The guy is a otherworldly.
I hope he fights Gane and it stays off the ground, that would be some contest.
Jones will beat himself with yet another run in with the law.
Nah, with Stipe's age and inactivity and Jones being Jones you're right, and there's a very real chance it falls through. I'm still not sold on Jones dominating everyone at HW, silly as it might seem given the way he demolished Gane. He looked lacklustre by his standards towards the end of his LHW reign, and given that he's had some problems with rangy strikers in the past (Reyes and Gustafsson), I'm intrigued to see how he looks if the likes of Stipe, Aspinall or Pav can keep it standing for a bit.
Yep, that would be great. I reckon Aspinall would just take him down quite early, but I'd love to see who has the faster hands and footwork.
I can’t wait for this card.

I will never forgive Pereira for this, the absolute throbber
Makes weight in his last 6 fights only to feck up his biggest fight.
Such a shame. The guy is so entertaining inside the octagon.
We are liiiiveeee!!
Wanker, so disappointing. Fair fecks to WB for not fighting him, he’s massive at WW as it is, considering he missed by some distance he’d probably come in about 200lbs. If I was nearly 40 (which sadly I am), I wouldn’t fancy someone coming into the cage 2 weight classes bigger
What a benger that Medic vs Semelsberger, specially the first round.
But what a finish in the third!

Was a cracking fight.
Where is everyone? I thought the thread would be mobbed for this card, it’s sweet as feck
The main card starts at 3am in the UK and I have to take my kids to swimming at 8am so I usually watch it in Sunday 
I know it well mate, fortunately it’s off-season for football and rugby so I’ve got a chance to stay up, I’m fecked most of the yearThe main card starts at 3am in the UK and I have to take my kids to swimming at 8am so I usually watch it in Sunday
I just squirted
Letting yourself get kicked behind the ear isn’t a recipe for success
Prelims delivered some good fights.
Let's see if the main card takes it to another level.

Holland makes quick work of a semi retired Chiesa.
Hoping for a miracle next.
Let's go Tony!!
Let's go Tony!!
Speaking of semi-retired….I almost don’t want to see the ghost of Tony come out
Well…..sheeet
Tony legit looks like he won a competition to be in there. Complete Shell
Tough watch. Tony should retire but feels he might go the Bigfoot Silva route to provide for his family.
Yeah he looked like an amateur in there. Green with his first submission win since ufc 156 (?) apparently. Getting dominated on the ground by Bobby Green of all people isn't a good look.
6 consecutive losses, most of them embarrassingly one-sided, and it's hard to see how the UFC can keep this guy on the roster at this point.
