      That’s the best Prelim card I’ve ever seen

      And the Main card did not disappoint

        So many good finishes

          Kiwi Carlos Ulberg is coming up after the next fight (I guess ~1:30 on espn)

          A mixed start to his UFC career so far. His first fight he didn’t manage his gas tank well and got KO’d. The second fight was much better but very conservative.

          Hopefully we see another big improvement

          One thing I want to see is better feints. The best guys at CKB are so natural and fluid with their feints and it creates opportunities. So far Carlos’s feints are jerky and obvious. He trains with the best, hopefully he’s a good student

            Well we didn’t get to see much from Ulberg because he got the KO early

            Good result

                Looked very composed and confident.

                Great finish.

                  It's the biggest card of the year this weekend. Headlined by a kiwi, co-main is an Aussie.

                  Volk is probably the featherweight goat if he wins his fight

                  This is video is decent - Izzy and Volk making their picks for each fight. They're both good at making this sort of content

                    @MiketheSnow who are you picking? Max & Cannonier? You can probably guess my picks

                    Riddell & Turner to be fight of the night if it goes beyond one round

                    Go CKB, Robbie, Pedro & Ian Garry

                        Riddell got caught early and didn't get a chance to recover. Shit. Turner was likely to win anyway but I was hoping this would last a few rounds

                        Volk ended all the chat from Holloway fans. Max overwhelms people with his volume.. but so does Volk plus he has the speed and power edge. I have no interest in a 4th fight unless it's a few years away

                        Volkanovski the featherweight GOAT now? It's him or Aldo.

                        Izzy with another fight that some people find boring.

                        Adesanya is in a weird place where the fights keep following the same pattern. He's a great counter striker so no one bum rushes him any more. Then his feints mesmerise people and they struggle work their way in or go for a takedown. Izzy wins a comfortable decision. Repeat.

                        Pereira knows what he can do in a kickboxing fight with Izzy. So that fight should look different. Great storyline too. Adesanya by Submission

                        Lawler v Barberena was a classic no defence, stand and bang fight.

                        Good that Cowboy retired. He's been taking some damage in recent years

                        Dricus du Plessis is a beast. Would love to see him fight with a more deliberate game plan.

                          Haven’t been paying attention and just noticed how good tomorrow mornings London card is. So many fun fights

                          Go the Brits. Hopefully Wood, Jones and Pimblett put on a show. Good tests for Craig and Aspinall

                                    KKF had a couple of chances, couldn't quite finish it off. The slight speed disadvantage was always going to be tough to overcome

                                    I want to see Shevchenko v Nunes III. Despite the judges I think they are currently 1-1. Valentina is the female goat IMO

                                      Think KKF will be better for this loss

                                      He’s got the goods to be Champ

                                      Good stoppage for me too

                                      He was about to take a serious beating on his back

                                      The third fight in the trilogy would be massive

                                          UFC Santos v Hill

                                          Great card top to bottom

                                          10 fights, 10 finishes

                                          Only second time for an all finish card
