machida to win and he will bore it up as much as possible. Shame.

I am not a machida fan at all....
 
Very happy with bt sports production of ufc thus far, these last few months.

A million miles better than ESPN and setanta

I'm not oirish. Like I said I'm not as hot on it as I was.

Shelled out £100 to watch ufc 30 (?) at the Royal Albert Hall to see my mate fight but I wouldn't pay that sort of money again.

Me neither.

And that's sort of why a lot of it puts me off. I appreciate the skill but some of it is just not fun to watch.

The early ufc's were hilarious. I remember buying ufc 2 on tape and getting a card inside the case with details on how to enter the next one. :lol:
 
An easy prediction. He was my captain in the fantasy game. But I fear that Dana will not give him knock out of night cos of his failure to make weight
 
Lots of early finishes in ufc over last couple of events. Sometimes good but also at times I feel short changed....
 
Machida is still incredible, ridiculous how under appreciated he is by some people.

6/8 tonight. Only one loss and the other one I had Guillard and it was a no contest. Looked a bad decision at first but the right call on the replay. Can't really fault Guillard in fairness. Sexton took an absolute beating too, no real surprise there but she's a warrior for surviving it.

Good show.

Machida can be boring though because a lot of times he counters and doesn't fully engage. Unlike tonight when he just blasted him, if he did that more often it'd be better. I personally like watching him most of the time though.

Also he just said he'd fight Anderson for the MW title if he had to!

That would be great, too bad Anderson won't ever have the belt again. ;)

Not going to say he's never had a boring fight, but personally I love watching him. MMA isn't all about balls to the wall actions (that's not aimed at you obviously). He's one of the smartest and most elusive fighters around, always been a big fan.

Doubt we'll ever see him fighting Silva, would be a dream fight though.
 
Could be a mixed bag in terms of fantasy scoring tonight, a lot of fights that are tough to call. Excited for Carmouche/Davis.
 
Natal a tougher opponent than Machida, what fecking drugs are these people on :lol:

Edit: Yeah, big fan of Bermudez, could be a cracking fight.
