    Harrison v Fabian went as predicted unfortunately

    Nunes is in the crowd. Hopefully they fight in the next couple of years. Nunes punching power might be the only thing that can worry Kayla

      @duluth I see that Morais was listed as an alternate. Did the no.1 seed pull out/got injured?

        @bovidae

        I think the other fighter missed weight

        I only watched the main event so not sure

              @MiketheSnow I assume you watch a bit of Cage Warriors? Any opinion on how Paddy Pimblett will go in the UFC?

              As for the main event I hope Till wins convincingly. MW desperately needs a contender that Izzy hasn't already beaten

                @duluth agree, i dont think cannonier is that guy.

                but i do hope whittaker gets his shot, he very much deserves it and i think he has a shot at victory.

                  Yeah, Whittaker with another game plan is a massive chance. I hope it happens.. I suspect it won't though

                  That's the only rematch that I want to see. Brunson, Costa, Gastelum etc aren't interesting

                  Go Till

                    He’s the real deal.

                    Jack Shore too.

                    Agreed, Till needs to finish Brunson

                      Great night of fighting

                      4 out of 5 for the Brits a great return

                      As one Liverpool door closes (Till) another one, maybe two open (Paddy and Tom)

                      Jack Shore quietly going about his work

                          Short hype video about Volkanovski. Some footage of his rugby league days and his early fights when he was fighting in the wrong weight classes

                            Great package

                            But really hope that Ortega gets back to his best and beats him a week Saturday.

                              Picks for 266?

                              Volkanovski v Ortega
                              Shevchenko v Murphy
                              Diaz v Lawler
                              Blaydes v Rozenstruik
                              Andrade v Calvillo
                              Moraes v Dvalishvili
                              Hooker v Haqparast
                              Abdurakhimov v Daukaus


                              Not that confident about the main event though.

                              Volk is the most underrated champ but Ortega is a scary opponent. He can go from nothing to a submission so quickly. Also his striking has improved recently.

                              Plus Volkanovski has had a limited camp because of gov policies in Aus. If he turns up as well prepared as normal I'll back him to outlast Ortega and get a stoppage late

                              Shevchenko is the best female MMA fighter and she'll win however she wants

                              I hope Diaz puts up a good fight. The signs aren't looking good

                              Good matchup. I think Rozenstruik might be slightly underrated at the moment. Only lost against the two best fighters in the division. All depends on how he copes with Blaydes takedowns

                              A dangerous fight for Hooker. All the other ranked LW fighters don't want to fight.. they're waiting on the outcomes of some other matchups. So it's a big risk with little upside
                              Both fighters had visa issues and shitty travel itineraries. Hooker had some other external bollocks during his camp. I expect a pissed off Hooker to be more aggressive than normal

                                Hooker talking about visa issues/finding an opponent etc

                                He’s on the prelims so that’s on regular espn in NZ. Probably around 2:15pm on Sunday

                                    Dominant performance from Hooker. The timing on those takedowns was great.
