Diaz v Pettis
Romero v Costa
Cormier v Miocic

Yeah, I managed to find them. Excellent card.
I msut say though, watching when you know the results and not live just isnt the same.
In other news, CMac seems to be saying all the right things after his recent off the rails ... although maybe that's just for the sentence ..

Interesting, good luck to him .

Unless Haskell can get the first shot in he'll be fairly easy to dismantle.

According to a poster on planet Rugby he has a judo and bjj background?
Agree playing flanker at the level he did plus being 34 probably means he’s fairly broken. -
The China fight night was more entertaining than I was expecting.
Zhang ran through Andrade to become the first Chinese champ. She looks big for the division. Very accurate when she swarmed her too, great elbows and knees
But the fight I cared about was Kai Kara-France.
Because of his power he has a great highlight reel. This fight went the distance and probably helped his reputation more than another big KO.
I thought he clearly won all 3 rounds but De La Rosa was always dangerous and never went awayHe wants to fight in Melbourne in 5 weeks. I would assume that's unlikely (a shame because I'll be going to that one)

Zhang is a beast a la Rousey in her prime

UFC 242
Great card
"In times of success be grateful, in times of defeat be graceful"
-
Interesting card on Saturday
Jack Hermansson and the Danish crowd silenced
-
A couple of hype videos are up for UFC 243
I'm looking forward to Hooker vs Iaquinta as much as the main event
The kiwi-ish title fight should be fun too
-
-
Any predictions for the main event?
I have no strong opinion.
Maybe Whittaker? I don’t think he’ll let the fight stay at the Adesanya range.
-
Whittaker certainly looked fit & ready in the open workout today
-
In Melbourne for the fight and just watched the weigh-ins. The old style genuine weighing are so much better for the fans
Aussie crowd strangely quiet. Too early? I assume they’ll be drunk tomorrow despite the early start
Plenty of boos for Israel
Ragin Al is tiny next to Hooker
-
that was amazing from Adesanya - just smoked Robert Whittaker.
