Man, Saul never got his chance in UFC.
Fighting ACB league this weekend.
Didn't he have some conviction that meant he couldn't get a working visa in America or something like that?
He prob would of won that series of Ultimate Fighter he was comfortably best person on it. Is a shame though would of been good to see him in the UFC>
Yeah, It seems he lied on his Visa application. Something along those lines.
Such a shame, he was really dominant on that TUF.
Less than 2 years later, Artem Is headlining UFC events.
I reckon that's the perks of being Conor's mate than anything to do with the TUF competition in fairness, long term I'd say someone like Teymur is higher interest for the UFC than Artem.
For sure. I mean that he lost big opportunities by fecking up his VISA application.
Could have been a great addition for the European and international cards while he sorted out his visa issues...
YEah fair comment. Artem definitely made the most of the opportunity that Rogers missed out on!
I think he was practically begging to get on the Manchester card as well.
feck yeah! El Pantera getting closer to the title shot! I said last year he was gonna be the champion by the end of 2017 and might come happen!
Edgar gonna get smashed. Its a new breed this kid...
That's going to be a great fight. Wouldn't count Edgar out at all.
Can't wait for that. Hope all the fighters actually make weight and fight.

Everybody made weight for tomorrow at least.
If anyone wants to watch some MMA before the UFC tonight. There is a card in the Manchester Arena tonight, ACB 54. Just about getting to the main card now, a couple of recognisable names from the UFC and Ultimate Fighter series. It's live and free on YouTube.
Thx ill watched the reminder of the evento... Hopefully Saúl is yet to fight.
Saul
edit. lost to a guy who stepped up with 24 hours notice But the motherfecker obviously missed weight by like 7 pounds.
No one to blame but Saul himself for taking the fight.
edit2. the polish translator lady is gorgeous

Trinaldo vs Kevin Lee next.
Hopefully Lee gets a humbling experience (KO'd).

Fantastic. Lee is definitely going places.
yes, until he fights a proper striker with good TD defense.
The guy is really strong, that's for sure. He can wrestlefeck his way into the top 10 easy.
Oliveira vs Means next.

well, that was underwhelming from Means. Manhandled by Cowboy Oliveira.
ps. Even CM Punk put more heart to get out of the choke.

The least interesting fight so far imo. At least Bethe Correira is next.
Time for a break then.
ps. Correia is not the prettiest, but her brazilian butt is top notch.
Draw. Good fight in the end.
haha yep, specially the last round. Correia was having her face reconfigured. Reneau should have finished that RNC though.
the comments
personally i don't mind.

Awesome fight! Ray Borg is quite the prospect in the Flyweight division.
Barboza vs Dariush next
should be a crazy one, hopefully they keep it standing.
