The MMA thread

Poor ol Joe

He was on the mma hour during the week moaning that nobody stands and stokes with him...

I wish Bellator would sort something out for UK and Ireland so we could watch their events


Don't follow Bellator, just seen it on my Facebook news feed and thought you guys here might like it :)

In other news, Aldo v McGregor looks like it's under trouble again. Quotes from Aldo's trainer saying he's in severe pain and the fight won't be decided upon until a day or two before the event.
 
He should just pull out. This 'touch and go' thing that has been going on for the past few days is just getting ridiculous. Better for all involved if he pulls out and McGregor can focus fully on Mendes. Then do the interim title thing if they really want to and have Aldo face Mcgregor in Dublin later in the year if Mcgregor wins (as a reward for keeping the card alive and taking an extra fight before the title shot).

That noise... wow.

Edit - Meant to say it reminded me of this.

From Yahoo Sports. What an absolute knob.

As for Machida, poor guy is past it.
 
Machida shouldn't have fought so soon again.
 
So what's happening with Aldo/McGregor ? Heard Mendes will replace Aldo if he's not fit to fight. Would be a bit strange if Mendes winds up beating McGregor and he never gets to face Aldo, since Mendes would then almost sure have to face Aldo yet again.
 
Seeing Lyoto knocked out was bad enough. Then having to listen to that bigoted, archaic shite afterwards. I look forward to Jacare snapping his arm off.
 
The new reebok kits were unveiled today and as well as looking rather uninspiring and dull, they've made loads of typos, for example:

Giblert Melendez :lol::lol:

Rather embarrassing for a big multimillion deal unveiling. Looney Tunes stuff from Reebok.
 
Shite.

McGregor v Mendes is a quality fight but if he loses then it kinda screws things up...
 
It will be a good fight. Mendes will be a tough opponent. Looking forward to see how he deals with the reach deficit.
 
What the hell was Aldo doing sparring so hard that close to a fight anyway? The amount of money the UFC have wasted promoted that fight.

Mendes isn't a great fight for McGregor stylistically.
 
F*cking Aldo...

Different fight for McGregor now, the division needs him to win this one because a third Aldo vs. Mendes fight would be meh.
