BT do a really good job promoting the UFC....probably better than UFC themselves. I'm glad they kept the rights to it.
Love how they dont trash talk.
I've never warmed to Till. He reminds me of Tony Bellew to much, obviously he's a Scouser so that's a factor but it's the personality that comes with it. Humble brags in a way.
So I’d doubt Tony Ferguson will be fighting again or at least not for a very long time. Wife called the police seemingly due to what seems like a schizophrenic break. Saying someone put a chip in his leg and that people were in his walls and stuff. Wife feared for the safety of herself and child so left, tried to get the coach to get him to go to a hospital which he refused so they got the police to do a welfare check and had discovered To y had ripped apart the house.
That’s what I’ve read anyway, don’t know if any of it’s true yet.

Goes to show, from that story he’s had multiple visits from the police Since the turn of the year and honestly I hadn’t heard about any of them but Conor smashes a phone and it’s everywhere.

Surely it's some what of a good thing not much has been said until now? Conor smashing a phone isn't a big deal really just someone being a dick and no long term damage is Done. This story has a big effect on people's personal lives, the guy has a wife and kid and it is ideally something he should of been able to keep private and got help with. Hopefully he does get urgent help and finds a way of recovering.
Just pointing out if this was Jones, Conor, DC or someone this would have been picked up and reported in some form by every news outlet.
Well yeah definitely for Conor not quite sure about the other 2 but that's more shit for them than anything and the way with anything more famous people get more coverage so someone like Conor would obviously get that coverage. That's more negative than good though you shouldn't have to have stuff like this reported everywhere people deserve confidentiality with stuff like this.
Hopefully Ferguson gets help and privacy in the situation it's never a good thing to deal with mental health issues.
If Ferguson has problems with Schizophrenia then it's probably not a good idea for him to hang around with somebody like Eddie Bravo and his crazy conspiracy theories.
I hope he gets the help he needs.
Wow, didn't see that coming at all. Messed up. Hope he gets help and gets past this thing.
Agree about the phone smashing media coverage. That's like a nothing incident in comparison.
That's really sad about Tony. He talks about his family, his kid and stuff a lot so must have been dons dark times for him and his wife/kid.
Hopefully he'll get the help he needs and recover.

If you mean Till vs Masvidal then it's tonight
I know, but if i'm sitting up till 7am tomorrow morning, monday's going to hurt
Ah my bad take it you're not on European time then? Dunno what to expect from the main event really, could be a brawl or could be similar to Till v Wonderboy with not too much going on. Thinking it's more likely to be the latter.
First prelim starts in about 10
I am, just assumed it was US time and usual
Ah nah thank feck. Main card starts 5 mins after United kick off. It's great having it on our time for once though
Good victory for Grundy. (bit of an early stoppage though)
Good stuff from Grundy. Narimani didn't have a clue where he was at the end.
Fair play to Molly McCann that's probably gotta be the worst TD attempt I've ever seen
That meatball is annoying. No better female fighters from England?
Bad cut on McCann's eye from the only decent thing Cachoeira's done all fight
defended well on the ground actually but standing at least
defended well on the ground actually but standing at least
wtf is that ref doing
About what?
Jesus, that woman's eye!
fecking hell her eye is fecked, you'd think she got battered all fight
Cachoeira threw a cheap shot and the stupid ref stepped in and gave her a warning. She did nothing illegal.
He gave the warning because her fingers were forward facing when she threw didn't he? Thought that's what the comm said
They say a lot of stuff. They said Meatball's eye got fecked because of a headbutt first.
Anyway, I'm glad that fight is over.
Come on Henry!
pfff
Well that was quick
Nice post fight interview from Ige. He seems a like a nice guy. Too bad he works with the snitch.
Negumereanu vs. Safarov should be a good one. They almost fought at the weight ins haha.
Safarov is an absolute dick
How many chances does Roberts want to give him
Always has been. Complete prick./
