Zhang is a beast a la Rousey in her prime

@Duluth said in UFC:

City Kickboxing is building a good roster

..and it looks like they have another UFC fighter - Brad Riddell

Not officially confirmed but it's been reported that he'll be making his UFC debut in Melbourne. He has a Muay Thai background.

There's a few videos on youtube of him.

KO highlights

Interview & training with Adesanya and Volkanovski

@Duluth Not UFC related but they also have 2 promising heavyweight boxers Hemi Ahio and Junior Fa as well.

Chin of steel

UFC 242

Great card

"In times of success be grateful, in times of defeat be graceful"

[Duluth]

A couple of hype videos are up for UFC 243

I'm looking forward to Hooker vs Iaquinta as much as the main event

The kiwi-ish title fight should be fun too

[MiketheSnow]

Interesting card on Saturday

Jack Hermansson and the Danish crowd silenced

Hyped for this. Like both fighters for different reasons but I'm leaning towards Izzy for support and prediction.

Same. Will probably cheer for Adesanya because it’s better for the sport in NZ.
Hoping for a big card in Auckland next year

[Duluth]

Any predictions for the main event?

I have no strong opinion.

Maybe Whittaker? I don’t think he’ll let the fight stay at the Adesanya range.

If he's fully fit, then Whittaker.

If not, Adesanya will exploit it quickly.

Al v Dan could be the fight of the night though.

[MiketheSnow]

Whittaker certainly looked fit & ready in the open workout today

[Duluth]

In Melbourne for the fight and just watched the weigh-ins. The old style genuine weighing are so much better for the fans

Aussie crowd strangely quiet. Too early? I assume they’ll be drunk tomorrow despite the early start

Plenty of boos for Israel

Ragin Al is tiny next to Hooker

[westcoastie]

that was amazing from Adesanya - just smoked Robert Whittaker.

[westcoastie]

Adesanya could've knocked Whittakers block off to be fair after that knock-out, and its the measure of the man he didn't - stunning victory

[Duluth]

Incredible results for city kickboxing

Adesanya’s striking is freakish

Hooker I thought might squeak a victory against Al, but he did far better than that. So happy about that result, that’s huge for his career.

Riddell’s debut was entertaining, one of the more enjoyable fights on the card. Shame he didn’t quite get the finish

Aussie crowd was strangely quiet until the main event. Not a great night for their fighters either

Now give Auckland a big card in 2020

[Steven Harris]

@Duluth we had power cut out west , can’t wait too see the replay..
