The MMA Thread
Since there's a SE Boxing Thread that evolved out of the PBF/Pac abortion, I thought we should have a SE MMA Thread as w
Gotta be the hypest fight to make.
I wonder if I'm Alex then maybe I want an easier flight and goes with Jiri again.
Rogan's pretty knowledgeable about mma and seems to think Alex is capable of beating a hw. He suggest weight classes changes not often except for the people who inevitably move up.
Also I saw a funny pic of a dude offering a beer to a fighter who then chugged it.
If I'm Coors or someone then I am immediately planting a dude to do this.
I'd buy it out of respect.

Pereira has cleaned out LHW, so moving up or retiring (he is 38) seem to be his only options. His magical power to always be 20% bigger than his opponent should stand him at good stead in HW.
Sounds like he wants Jon Jones at the WH. I'll take that, too. I do think that is an easier stylist matchup than Aspinall.
**** Jon Jones. A yoga master would be impressed at the degree to which the UFC bends over backwards to accommodate him. Aspinall should have been HW champion ages ago.
Wow just saw the Pereira fight. Didn't know the 12 to 6 elbow was legalized and was worried he was fouling. I think Jones would frustrate him then submit him. But they are both getting old.
Honestly, Gamrot held his own against Oliveira in the striking. I actually thought he edged a few of the boxing exchanges even though Oliveira got the win.
Any other Vancouver MMA fans here? I'm excited to have the UFC in the city this week, even though I won't be going to the event. I might try to catch the Q&A event as and the open weigh ins.
Has anyone else done these events in their respective cities when the UFC came to town?

I went to a press conference once but I don’t remember much from it .
Last night wasn't the first time RDR quit. He's not HIM.
Solid ME card this weekend. Finally getting to see Aspinall back in action.
Tom down to 11% BF, which is crazy.
Guess he figures Gane might be too agile to instantly steamroll, so he'll need to be able to move fast too.
Valter Walker gets his 4th consecutive win by heel hook.
Then calls out Hamdy who beat Chris Barnett earlier, and refers to Barnett as Chocolate Peppa Pig. I'm ded.
Volkov looks like Paddy overdosed on HGH.
How did Volkov win the decision?!
It looked like Volkov's ear was bleeding or there was blood from somewhere. I didn't realise it has solely become a competition of who can bleed the most. Damage, control and aggression....
"I can see clearly now" not the entrance song that inspires fear.
Aspinall in 1 round?
He better not lose. The Internet will explode!
I have bet on Aspinall to win by KO, TKO or DQ.
Don't let me down! He'll probably win by submission now.
I did one DFS lineup in DK's flagship contest.
It's the worst I've ever done. Currently 0/5
Aspinall is my 6th fighter.
Jandiroba's strategy makes no sense. She takes down Dern, does nothing. Lets her back up and then immediately goes for a takedown again.
Just bet on Aspinall to win in 1 round as well.
Watch Gane take this 5 rounds to a decision.
Taken a small bet on Gane winning just to cover myself.
