The MMA thread

Clearly he's a complete scumbag but doesn't he throw the whisky in the guys face rather than punch him?

Dunno the slow motion videos look like he clocks him with a punch cos of his head movement. If the old geezer was drinking with Edmond Tarvedyan then I think he'd of managed to move out the way and choke Conor out.
 
The Athletic have recruited some of the best reporters.

Chuck Lindenhall, Shaun Al-Shatti

others; Ben Fowlkes, Chad Dundas from the famed CME podcast

Can't resist that.
 
Your man has grey hair, I dont think he appreciates being called elderly all over the globe
What did he do? Refuse a drink from Connor?
 
Nate Diaz looks like ghetto Stretch Armstrong. His body looks so strange.

Stipe towers over DC. Can't wait to see how that one plays out the second time.

Costa v Romero... For the juice belt. Gonna be pure fire that one.

So hard to call Stipe v DC. Haven't rewatched the first fight, but remember the eye poke was just before the knock down? I want Stipe to win.

Can't stand Costa, and don't have too much love for the soldier of god either but hoping Costa gets KTFO. :)

Both came several pounds lighter than last time. Good adjustment from Stipe. The speed advantage for DC was way too much. Don't think it will change anything ultimately.

Mental warfare wise, its not even close. Stipe coming as very fragile. He was saying DC won the first fight because of a lucky punch, stuff like that. Looks nervous and emotional.

I think it might last longer than last time, but got DC to come out on top.

Any idea what estimated UK start times are for these two fights?

Hard to say really just depends how long the earlier fights go. Main card starts at 3AM and there's 3 fights before Pettis/Diaz so probably half 4 earliest for that to start.
