My thinking is he just went so above and beyond for the Pereira fight that it kinda wrecked him for the Strickland bout. Time off should hopefully fix that and at 35 should still be in decent form, I guess we'll see. The talk has been awful, certainly turned me away from being a fan of his. Hope he course corrects on that front, I'm going to guess Dricus will be the crowd favourite at least at the start of the match.

Im really looking forward to it. I hope Izzy can win but not exactly sure what DDP will bring and if its full noise, he will need to be accurate or Izzy will catch him. Its an interesting matchup for sure.
Im expecting a fair few South Africans to be there. SA vs Aus also in Perth on Sat so would be a good weekend to be a saffa there.
Not too confident in how the other CKB boys will go. Could easily be 0-3

Betfair has them winning one
I think Hooker has more of a chance than that and I'd have Adesanya as a warmer favourite. But I am only picking the one win
Hope I'm wrong

Pretty consistent with my thinking (also hope I'm wrong). Hooker will give it his all, prob take the dude further than expected but end up losing. I think Izy DDP odds are about right. Its close!

No see Kai Kara yet. Erceg was awesome in that Pantoja fight, wasn't there some bad call in his corner which potentially cost him the win. From memory his corner had said he was behind in rounds and needed the finish when they were actually tied?
At this stage they are both a similar level. Erceg has gotten there very quickly though.. I'm assuming he has a higher ceiling
In KKF's favour he has more power. But that might not be a factor given well Erceg took shots from Pantoja

But not that wrong. I picked all 3 ckb fights wrong. Izzy looked good though
As usual the pre fight chat form both sides is forgotten. It really does seem to mean more to some fans. It’s why I don’t follow it.
KKF caught Erceg. Hopefully he gets a title shot now
So happy for Hooker. My favourite NZ sportsman. He was given almost no chance. Forced the fight to go in the direction he wanted.. great fight.

Izzy might learn a bit more humility after that ( I didn’t see it, just caught the headlines on stuff )
His antics make him a very hard guy to like and support at times.
Sounds like a rematch in SA might be on the cards
Adesanya was humble as he has been after every loss. Something someone Strickland could learn from
He was looking good then a punch set up a choke, small margins in mma. There’s so many ways to lose
The chat really is bullshit though. I don’t understand why so many keep falling for it. Seeing Jones and Adesanya giggle and play fight each other when they finally met face to face… Bisping and Rockhold goofing around with each other. Most super serious chat evaporates after selling a fight is over

Totally agree. Izzy was actually looking good. He was leading the strikes and I thought DDP was starting to look pretty tired. It did feel like we were gonna get a result, I just wasn't expecting that. Small margins alright and then bam fight over.
Decent card overall and great to see Kai and Dan get the results.

He has plenty of humility and has always had. But you wont pick this up from just following media headlines.....
