BT Sport are pricks. Recording cut off during last round of Magny/Gastelum as the event was over running. Was really enjoying that fight. Rest of card was pretty crap apart from Diego Sanchez/Lamas. Diego is a warrior.  Didn't see prelims but 6/6 decisions on main card.

I know this is primarily an mma thread but boxing was class last night, Cotto/Canelo lived up the much anticipated hype and the main undercard fight was a classic. Recommend checking both out.

I thought the UFC card was shite tbh. Main event was OK, I just hate when 2 fighters consistently get into fight finishing positions, and fail to finish their opponent. Happened a lot on that card.

I'm actually "over" Diego now. Standing in front of your opponent and waving them to "come and bang" isnt a technique. The fight against Giblert was great, but you can't come across as serious when you have zero gameplan.

It was more the fact Diego's foot was destroyed and he just kept on battling through. You are probably right actually, the main event probably seemed better than it actually as as the rest of the card sucked, don't think it was a bad fight though, Magny has impressed me as of late.

 

Apparently, Silva vs Belfort 2 is verbally agreed for March in Brazil.

Well, got our tickets for London yesterday. Block C1, so we are pretty much next to the cage. I love it on the floor section at UFC events, would never even bother attending if I couldnt get floor tickets. Hoping to make a bit of a trip of it too, with the weigh ins on the Friday, maybe even the fan Q&A.

yeah, I find mousse a bit boring though, bisping is always fun to watch. there is a possibility that this isnt the headline fight. bisping supposedly said last week that UFC are lining up 3 big fights for london, and he didnt think he was headlining.

BUZZING for Aldo McGregor! Really don't know who I want to win though. Be nice to see Aldo come out and destroy him but then be good to see McGregor running with it and possibly bringing an actual proper UFC PPV over to Ireland in a stadium.

 

That same night is also Joshua v Whyte in the boxing which is shaping up as a similar grudge to Aldo (Joshua) v McGregor (Whyte) .

I'm absolutely in the Aldo camp. I want mcg humbled. He is a very skilled fighter, I just hate his bullshit, and the fanboys who buy into it. Sure it would be great for Irish/British/European MMA to have a prominent champ, I just don't want that champ to be an insufferable gobshite.

McGregor and Aldo have both already agreed to shake hands after the fight, they were both asked during a conference call a couple of days ago.

I've always said Aldo and I'll be sticking with picking him but as we know anything can happen, such a great card. Weidman/Rockhold should be class and Jacare/Romero title eliminator is a fight I'm really excited for.  Three fight cards next week so going to be amazing.

Completely agree about his bullshit but I do think he was at least humble and respectful in the cage after he won the interim title, but I had had a few drinks by that point.

fixed for you ;-P

that's another part of his bullshit that winds me up. he is world champion of nothing.

If he wins convincingly, then I will be the first to admit he is the real deal.
