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

[Duluth]

Kai fights in a few mins (on espn)

[Duluth]

Fuck yeah!

Kai is improving so fast. Great wrestling defence

Volkanovski v Zombie
Sterling v Yan
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

Burns with the KO

Burns with the KO

Almost

Amazing fight. Fight of the year contender

There’s some great fights to make at WW.

[Duluth]

Volk!

Zombie has a great chin obviously. However KZ and his team kept repeating the bollocks claim that Volkanovski has no power. So pleased that fight ended with a stoppage via striking

The class difference was huge

Chimaev has a chin that's for sure

Bullshit judging.

Split at best and could easily have gone Gilbert's way.

Chimaev needs to rethink his ego. Should have gone to ground more.

Sterling is legit. Very surprised.

Volk was a machine.

@mikethesnow I think Yan won, but Sterling fought a much better fight. Yan is technically the best fighter in mma love watching him

10-8 round swung it for Sterling.

Yan got dominated on the floor.

[muddyriver]

@mikethesnow yea round 2 could be a 10 8 but not round 3. That would be a draw though on my cards haha

Round 2 sterling did damage and threatened alot round 3 was more just control time. Round 1 was the decider and 2 gave it to sterling.

Last weekend was pretty good for fighters named after Mike Tyson. Tyson Pedro made his injury comeback and looked sharp. A lot of feints and he used the leg kicks well

Apparently he’s moving across the Ta$man to fully link up with CKB

[Duluth]

These are likely more wrong than normal. This might be a shocker.. I've gone for every male underdog

Oliveira v Gaethje
Rose v Esparza
Chandler v Ferguson
Rua v OSP
Cerrone v Lauzon

Oliveira is on a great run and he has more ways of finishing the fight. He's been rocked in all his recent wins but recovered well.. I think he gets rocked again and Gaethje will finish it

Rose to keep the fight standing and outclass Carla

Ferguson. Picking with heart over head? Probably? Tony is hard to KO and I think his durability, then cardio, gets it done

Picking against OSP's mentality here. He has a lot of below par performances

Cowboy & Joe both have shitty recent record. Picking against Cerrone's chin.

Randy Brown v Khaos Williams on the prelims might be fight of the night

[Duluth]

Also NZer Genah Fabian is fighting in the PFL on Sat (it's on sky)

She looked good last year until she came up against Harrison. However she's has missed weight today

[Duluth]

Shit that was a clean front kick. Chandler with a great KO. Ferguson had him rocked in the first round

Ferguson has taken a lot of damage in his last few fights.. Despite him looking good in the first round, it might be time to retire. He’s a long long way from a title shot now
