I hope Khabib knocks McGregor out cold.
Has Lesnar vs jones been made official yet?
That's the ticketLesnar Cormier you mean ?
Not yet. Cormier is out with a hand injury until 2019.That's the ticket
Can't say I'm really hyped with this new division. Unless they get rid of 170, it doesn't make sense.
Also, why Diaz is fighting for a belt? Pourier? None of these guys would have won a belt at a any current division, so now ensuring that one of them will be UFC champion is quite silly.
Dana gonna Dana i guess. (it's obvious he wants a champion Conor can defeat)
ps. I hope Dustin beats the crap out of Nate though. At least he has put the work in and been active.
Minister of Foreign Affairs of Chechnya Dzhambulat Umarov said that Irish MMA fighter Conor McGregor, who spoke negatively about Ramzan Kadyrov at a press conference with Khabib Nurmagomedov, behaves like an "outrageous clown" and "Mexican cock." This is reported by Govorit Moscow.
"We give him credit, he is a great master at the UFC, but he has come up as an outrageous clown who considers himself an inimitable showman. I consider to say his name next to Ramzan Kadyrov as an unjustifiable luxury," Umarov said.
"[He] could not stand by his words as a real man. Otherwise, he would not have made these statements for many thousands of kilometers and would not behave like a Mexican cock," Umarov stated.
At September 20, Conor McGregor, who traditionally offends opponents before the fight, criticized the father of Khabib Nurmagomedov and called him the quivering coward for a photo with Ramzan Kadyrov, whom he called a “dictator and warlord.”
After that, Chechnya urged McGregor to apologize; in particular, MMA fighter Khusein Khaliev. "For your words, in the cage or outside the octagon, you will have to answer, because we never forgive for harming the honor of our family or a person," said Khaliev.
What's a Mexican cock?
Just a warning, don’t stupidly type “what is a Mexican cock” in to Google. I can’t decide if he is just being racist or there is something about Mexican Roosters we don’t know.What's a Mexican cock?
This thread is crazy. Oh I'll support a guy who is connected to a dictator who commits genocide just because he's fighting some guy who talks shit to sell his fight. I clearly fancy Khabib to beat Conor but for God's sake Khabib is a much worse human being than Conor is. I have never wanted Conor to take a guy out as much as this (even though he has a 1% chance to do so). In fact I hope he does it and then stands over Khabib and tells him to recognise Conor as his real God and bonus points for him knocking out Khabib's piece of shit manager. Khabib and his manager are actual pieces of shit human beings.
Anyway dreaming over, Khabib will submit him in the second as long as his pumpkin head can take a punch. Notes are that no one will blast Khabib for fighting below his weight class like Conor at FW even though Khabib has missed weight like Conor never did. If Khabib ever moves up to his true weight class then Woodley will destroy him.
On Jones- I'm weirdly OK with him coming back. I'd love this to mean that DC beats him but that will never happen roids or no roids (by the way the 40 year old double champ is 'definitely' not on anything- they all are). However if Jones fights Gus on his first fight back then he's getting his first loss.
Mousasi vs Rory MacDonald is being shown live tonight on Channel 5 . About fecking time that Bellator sorted out a live TV deal for the UK.
Gonna be a fun card.
prelims starts in 15 minutes.
Haven't looked at the prelims but the main card is brilliant. A top notch prospect vs challenging opposition, an excellent welterweight fight with that tournament increasing the interest levels, the geriatric Wanderlei vs Rampage thing that everyone of a certain age will watch anyway, and that awesome main event. Superb.
For me yes, the recording stopped during the Lima fight. So annoying.Erm, so did the feed for this die just before the main event on channel 5?
What kind of incompetence is that from ch5? So annoyed that I watched the whole card and then the one fight I wanted to see was completely absent.For me yes, the recording stopped during the Lima fight. So annoying.
