    Its really great to see UFC in Dublin for the first time and its on ppv!. I missed out on ticket sale and im frustrated. Oh well what can you do. Irish people can really sell out the ticket fast!. Anyone going to UFC 93 i just want to say to you to enjoy yourself. I wish i could get the hands on ticket well now i have to watch it at home. Still it will be a very exciting weekends.

    Do anybody know the schedules and the events that will take place before and after UFC? I have been searching everywhere on net and theres no timetables for the UFC 93 at the o2. I just want to know When will the Weigh Ins be exactly what day and what time and will there be events for the public at the o2?. I am planning to go to the 02 on friday and saturday to see whats goings on in there and hopefully people can give some information. I cannot wait for the fight between Mark Coleman Shogun, last time they met, it was a disaster. Shogun broke his arm and there were fights between two teams. On January 17, shogun will bring the fights that should have happen properly and it will happen on UFC 93. Can wait for the ace vs hendo fights as well. It should be good. Good luck to Tom egan and Irish Handgrenande Marcus Davis for the fights as well.

    The weigh ins are at 4.00 on Friday doors open at 3.00 and is free according to another post. Joe Rogan is at the Sugar Club bottom of Leeson St on Friday night.

    On Saturday the o2's doors open at 16.30 and the first fight: 17.30 http://www.theo2.ie/event/ufc-93/

    They say after the fights the party is at the Vaults which isn't far from the O2, http://www.thevaults.ie/index.php . I'm just wondering, will the ring girls be there so I can try my best chatup lines. ( A bar full of testoestrone heads getting pissed and yapping how they enjoy watching a fella getting knocked out, arm broken, almost decapitated, etc would surely be any woman's nightmare :D)

    Good question. I will be looking to buy a t-shirt. Anybody remember how much they were when the UFC were in Belfast?

    Solely on the basis that running Dublin is the most expensive of the Europe shows so far for UFC they probably have little choice but to sell loads of stuff at the show.

    You too,

    Say hello at the weigh-in after party, I will be the guy with some kind of mma branded t-shirt......;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 544 ✭✭✭Name Changed


    Do you reckon the aftershow party in the Vaults would be worth going to? Has anyone ever gone to one before and what was it like? The place is a bit of a kip though.

    I could be wrong but I think they will. I think there is some wrist band from the pre weigh-in Q&A. AFAIK its not the UFC that organise it but Fight club members, so who knows what it will be like.

    Given that you can bring 4 ppl in with you, there shouldnt be many ppl waiting at the door.
