That was a bit shit, total mismatch with Cormier's speed.
That
That went exactly how I thought. It would go that way 9 times out of 10.

I'd picked Neslon, but it was heart over head tbh. Only way he was wining that was luck.
I have no idea who is going to win this. I'm leaning towards Cain, but I went for Dos Santos in my picks.
These are clearly the best two in the hw division. I don't see why this has to be the last fight between the two of them.

Same here, think it'll be Cain, but picked Dos Santos.
I can't take to Nelson for some reason. I know he's not too popular and supposedly hard to deal with.
I couldn't even tell you why I like him, I just do.
I just think it'll be Cain because that's the result I don't want.
How the hell is Dos Santos still going......
Over now is a second surely?
He can't keep going.... can't.
Dos Santos is a puzzle, wrapped in an enigma, wrapped in a bloody fist.
JDS is a beast. I don't know how he's standing. And he's still throwing haymakers.
5-3 with my picks. Went with heart over head with Sanchez & JDS. Rookie mistakes.
5-3 here too, heart mistakes being Big Country and JDS.
Brilliant event from start to finish.
5-3, went with heart for Sanchez and because he's a favorite of mine, despite knowing deep down inside he Melendez was gonna win that fight and I went with Dos Santos. Kauffman should of won her fight, screwed over there.
Sanchez/Melendez was a sensational fight, unbelievable. I still dislike Velasquez. Great card coming in and lived up to the hype, awesome.

6/8 in my predictions, got KJ Noons and Gonzaga wrong.
Probably the best event I have seem

Not half! Sanchez was doing some Hulk Hogan comeback shit at the end with the crowd chanting his name. I was half expecting a big boot followed by a leg drop.
Holy feck, that was an awesome event. 
Diego Sanchez... I was rooting for him in the end even though I picked Melendez for the win. He reminds me of a friggin pitbull, seriously.
And Cain vs JDS, what a fight again! A lot of talk about JDS but Cain is a fecking animal, I thought he was going to kill JDS in that 3rd round at some point.
Nothing but respect for the 4 fighters of both these fights. Amazing.

Where's Phil? Did he top himself after that second JDS loss?
JDS and Diego have somehow come out of this with more credit, purely because they took horrible beatings.
But both fights were very one sided, especially Cain V JDS

Exactly, nothing but respect for those 4 fighters, they really left it all in the cage. How some of them were still standing I'll never know.
Especially Diego, he gets knocked down with a bomb and literally bounces back onto his feet. That guy's got some heart. (and chin)

Watched all the fights though, cracking card.
I was astounded that Cain wasn't able to knock JDS out. (technically he knocked himself out)

Pissed myself when he hulked out in that last round. He's such a character.
Anyone watching this shih tonight. Not really bothered now that Bisping is off the card but interested in the Manuwa and Pearson fights.
I'll probably watch it here at work if I can find a shitty stream, what time does it kick (punch?) off?Pissed myself when he hulked out in that last round. He's such a character.

Prelims are nearly finished! Main card starts in 40 minutes.
Whaaaat?! Get me a stream, numbers! Do something useful for once.
Youtube stream. Will PM you a stream for main card.
Thanks mate, they fight in Manchester tonight?! How come you guys aren't there?
Edit - Nevermind most of you are Irish, aren't ya?
I'm in Belfast, I spent far too much money in Berlin wooing an beautiful Austrian girl and the cheapest tickets were like £80. So...that, really.
Will go to the Dublin show next year though.
Picked Iaquinta as my captain this week, seems like it wasn't the best choice.
Couldn't make picks earlier so didn't bother.
I see... who do you think will win the main event? I went for Machida but Munoz' boxing looked so good last fight. I think it will be very close.
I think Machida too.
