The MMA thread

Castillo thinks he won that? He took a beating for 15 minutes.

I swear dos anjos always says "work hard" and "hard work" every time... Like Solskjaer saying "top top player/team"
 
If JdS loses to Overeem, he is more or less finished imo. The climb back to respectability will be too steep.
He has lost just two fights in the UFC both against Cain

Although he did take serious beatings in those. Overeem is unbelievably experienced and could possibly sit on him for three rounds but I think JDS could come back from that
 
How the feck did a judge score that 29-28 to Kaufman? Come the feck on.
 
Junior Dos Santos, he's like a big cuddly teddy bear that would take you head clean off with his right uppercut.

Kinda old news but, Mark Henry (Edgar's head coach) is looking to get rich.

Frankie Edgar's coach asks 'running' and 'scared' Conor McGregor to 'man up and defend' the belt

Doubt this fight will happen. Conor really struggles to cut weight and he is too big for the division anyway.
 
Jury who dropped to featherweight fit the 1st time and I'm guessing it was a hard cut...taking on a veteran who didn't come close to make weight

Jury shouldn't have taken the fight IMO when he missed weight
 
McGregor will defend the belt

Just depends if the UFC want a rematch, if not it will be frankie


It may happen but I cant see it myself. Seems like its up to Conor and if he thinks the "numbers add up" as he likes to say.
 
Delighted for Nate

Not only did he look great but he looked to have lost his motivation for the sport and that is back

Now we just need Nick back again and all will be well
 
Overeem is now a free agent. That was his last fight on his contract. If he had lost it was advantage UFC

But now he can negotiate
 
That was a handicap match, reem had to avoid JDS and the draft in the arena but god damn that soon of a bitch did it!

Jesus, I'm enjoying the bitterness from you and Nucks.

Why do you think I am bitter?

That was arguably the biggest fight in years, and it ended in the way that it did. If you think they fought 1000 more times, how many times do you think either guy would win via KO in the first 20s? What exactly did you learn about these two guys in that fight?

I've said, I'm not a fan of McGregor, nor am I a fan of Aldo.

I'm sorry your understanding of combat sports is so shallow, but I spoke the truth. Getting caught cold in the first seconds of a fight while decisive, is hardly telling. That's the truth. I want to see them go at it again, sooner rather than later. If McGregor does it again, then it isn't just catching him early, which can happen to anyone. Then it's a trend and it's telling.

Bitter about the outcome, well I guess in a manner, I'm disappointed that the fight was over in seconds. Not over the outcome. I thought Aldo would win, but I didn't actually care who won.
 
Cerrone will be forever a nearly man now

Wanted him to win as I felt McGregor could have taken him

RDA, I'm not sure
