Volk & Adesanya training together

Bareman talking about the Perth card

[MiketheSnow]

Some very good fights over the weekend

[Duluth]

A rare slam KO. Follow up shots were a bit unnecessary

[MiketheSnow]

Brutal

[MiketheSnow]

[Rembrandt]

Finally caught up on last weekend. Way better than the previous week! Very unlikely Ill be able to watch 319 for a few days/weeks (baby due today) odds arent great for not having the result spoilt but we'll see.

[Rembrandt]

Just watched the press conference. What an absolutely stacked card. Best of the year along with the most anticipated headliner of the year?

Picks
Asakura
MVP
Prates
Pico
DDP

Almost the same as mine. I'm cheering for DDP but picking Chimaev

Still waiting for the baby?

[Rembrandt]

@Duluth arrived yesterday, so far super chilled compared to #1, managed to eye a pub with ufc advertising on a walk near the hospital...

[MiketheSnow]

Congratulations

[MiketheSnow]

Hooper v Hernandez could be great

Asakura

Neal
Murphy
Chimaev

[Rembrandt]

I was all-in on Chimaev after the Whittiker face crush but apparently that was an existing injury that he got lucky with. I think DDP style is just weird enough to throw Chimaev's game off. General consensus seems to be DDPs chances improve the longer the fight goes on

Yeah if it gets past round two I expect a DDP finish

The question is how DDP deals with Chimaev aggressively chasing takedowns early. DDP has faced a lot of striking specialists in the UFC so no one really knows

[Rembrandt]

Well I'll be damned. Khamzat is the real deal! Can't question DDPs heart though, never gave up despite a total domination

[MiketheSnow]

DDP had a few moments - which in MMA is sometimes all you need - but his submission game wasn’t good enough

Cracking card with some awesome finishes

[Duluth]

A new CKB fighter in the UFC - Rowston got a contract on today’s contender series

He’s going to be added to the Perth card

[Rembrandt]

Great night for the kiwis on road to ufc semi finals.

Tau and Liu both into their respective finals. Both great fights too

[MiketheSnow]

[Duluth]

Another CKB fighter added to the UFC. He'll be making his debut in Perth

[Rembrandt]

@Duluth 14 fights on that card already with the Rowston one to add. Big night unless there are some drop outs
