    UFC Vegas 48

    Low key card

    High key entertainment

    Some great finishes

    I finally saw last weekends fights. Hill’s KO was special

    Sorry late to the thread.

    The classic boxing 1-2 but it looked appallingly executed. How that actually knocked old mate out is anyones guess……

    Right on the buzzer with thin gloves

    Yeah but still looked like one of those shitty unco punches that are more likely to break your wrist than do the recipient any damage.

    In other words what I throw on the bag at home.

    @mn5 it's an over hand and they're both coming in so the range is off.
    Johny walkers head is suspect for sure

      Yeah people don’t realise how hard it can be to perfect the timing of the landing of a punch that’s for sure and not knowing either of these guys particularly well it does look like Walkers head is glass like.

        Good event this weekend, the first London card for 3 years. I'll be cheering for every Brit apart from Allen 🙂

        I like Volkov but I hope Aspinall puts on a dominant performance. I'm hoping the HW division evolves and better athletes like Aspinall, Gane and maybe Jones are at the top. Aspinall has crazy speed for his size

        Allen is a good challenge for Hooker back at 145lbs. Hooker is confident it's his correct weight
        That frame in that division, with the additional experience he has now.. he should go well

                It’ll be interesting to see how he is tomorrow

                The test cut he did a couple of months was easy according to him. Maybe the travel has had an impact? In his previous stint at 145 he generally would look rough at weigh in

                  Weird fight from Hooker. When he first got struck he just stayed in range. He had plenty of room to backup and recover. After that he was just hanging on.

                  Did he think he needed a brawl and an early win?

                  Great card so far. Go Aspinall

                      Been a fan of Aspinall for a wee while. Seems to be very level headed. Lightening fast and has a super well rounded game. I think he's really what everyone was hoping Gane was. A complete figter. I have no doubt this guy will be the future of the division.

                        I think Hooker is drinking too much of his own coolade. He's seen as this ready to go tough guy. Much like Cowboy was. But he's not good enough to be that guy. He needs to cool it with all the undefeated up and comers. He could still carve out a good finish to his career with taking similarly skilled fighters to himself. A few must see wars. I think his fight with DP has given him the idea he's elite.

                                Kai Kara-France is fighting Askarov later today

                                Askarov is deservedly a big favourite. He's been consistent in the UFC and hasn't been beaten yet.

                                KKF is improving and has hands that can stop the fight

                                Winner should get the next title shot

                                          Burns v Chimaev
                                          Dern v Torres
                                          Pichel v Madsen

                                          Garry v Weeks
                                          Rozenstruik v Tybura
                                          Ladd v Pennington
                                          Gall v Malott

                                          Clear favourites according to the odds in the last three fights. I agree with the markets regarding the results.. I'm surprised by how lopsided they are

                                          Big fight for Gall on the undercard. He hasn't any momentum in the UFC yet and is danger of getting cut. Malott is highly rated and looked good on the contender series
