    Good little bio on him including clips from his first fight at 17.

          Topuria v Oliveira
          Pantoja v KKF
          Royval v Joshua Van
          Dariush v Moicano
          Talbott v Lima

          Will be cheering or KKF (obviously) and I'd like Moicano to win

          Kai has a good chance but I think he'll need a knock out.

              Three sets of predictions and we can't agree on a single fight. I guess that's good match making

                  To be fair I havent seen Royvale, Lima or Dariush fight so those are just guesses. Basing Kai's fight on the sole fight of his I saw (vs Erceg) seen a couple Pantoja's. Will be very interesting if Kai's power threatens his chin because he will get hit. Hoping Pantoja is in for a big surprise.

                    Gone a bit nuts with this one, watched all the promos, press conference and the weigh-ins. Don't know if I'm just becoming a boomer but the weigh-in show with Sanko, Cormier amd Bisping was hilarious. Bisping unfiltered/drunk is something else.

                      KKF didn’t really get any offence going. Stayed calm in the grappling in round 1, managed to get back to his feet a couple of times in round 2. He really needed a standup fight to have a chance and Pandora knew that

                        @Duluth Nice one. Yeah Kai's fight was a hard watch. Appeared to be nowhere near Pantoja's level. Made worse after that absolute banger fight preceding it.

                        Tuporia is phenomanol. Surely the boos have got to stop now. Yeah he has put out eveyones favourite fighter/s but you gotta appreciate just how good he is.

                          His run in the last 3 fights is amazing

                          Volk, Hollaway, Oliveira all by KO

                          Volk is really hard to KO, that was the only time Max has been knocked out and Oliveira hadn't been knocked out for 8 years

                            If Islam beats JDM and Tuporia beats Paddy/Armin...then the UFC should really get Jone's 30mill+ and get that superfight organised

                              Askren has had his double lung transplant. Looks like a different person after that weight loss

                                    That was a super fun fight-night, great fight and finishes from the prelims on.

                                    This in particular was special..and from a heavyweight. Can't wait to see him fight again.

                                          Cracking card from bottom to top with some devastating finishes, a few surprise return to forms, and a fitting end to the ‘Diamond’s’ career
