    Question for those intending to book their tickets tonight using the LONDON password:

    Does it work for non UFC fight club members?

    Also for those who are gonna be getting their tickets tomorrow morning at 10 what website are you gonna use?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,398 ✭✭✭ormondprop

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,460 ✭✭✭✭DrPhilG


    If anyone ends up with a spare ticket or someone drops out etc, give me a shout!

    Only got the go ahead the other day, booked flights and hotel but all the cheap tickets are gone so I'm waiting and hoping for cheap ones on ebay at the last minute.

    your all idiots for buying tickets to this overpriced weak ass card, just look at the difference between UFC 119, 120(UK) and 121. Fans dont even realise they are getting fucked over on this one, they are too busy licking Dana White's balls. Just look at the main event and co main event on each of these cards

    UFC 119 - Frank Mir vs. Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira, Antônio Rogério Nogueira vs. Ryan Bader

    UFC 120 - Michael Bisping vs. Yoshihiro Akiyama, Dan Hardy vs. Carlos Condit

    UFC 121 - Brock Lesnar (c) vs Cain Velasquez, Jake Shields vs. Martin Kampmann

    Idiots! That's a bit much. Ok it's not the best looking card on paper but there could be some great action on the night. It's not every week UFC come to the UK and if people want to spend there own money on this then it's up to them. I won't be going to this event but that is nothing got to do with the card it's a money thing. I would love to go to this event. Not sure if you have been to a live UFC event, I myself have been to 4 of them (93, 95, 99 & 100) and have had a great night at all of them. Fair play to the Irish fans for going to this and I hope it turns out to be a great night of fights.

    Well thanks for your generalisation there buddy....

    Firstly ufc 120 is obviously gonna have a lot of british fighters on it like bisping, hardy, mc sweeney and other's

    Secondly they are gonna try and get other european fighters to attract fans who just have a short flight from their country

    Thirdly they aint gonna put on a fight lesnar v velasquez which will kill off their home ppv market

    I also cant afford to travel to america for 3 nights to go to a ufc fight there as much as i'd like to and just because a fight card does not have the big names on it, whose balls you may like to lick, does not mean that it is going to be a poor event.

    Was gona go to 120 but couldnt pay the money the ufc are looking...55 for the worst tickets is a bit steep in my opinion for whats essentially a fight night card when i throw flights and hotels into it along with a keg of beer the numbers dont add up. Saying that i have seen worse cards than this and should be some good scraps on it..apart from mcsweeney obviously as he will get taken down and pummeled big country style.

    Yeah fair point, maybe I'll go to one of the other regular European events that have lower prices and better cards.

    Oh, wait... :rolleyes:

    listen if you feel as though that fight card is good enough for you and you want to make up excuses for why people will go see if, like "we're lucky we even get fights over here in europe", im sorry but paying that much money for this card is a shame, they are stacking up the UFC 121 card to the max, do you not feel as though you deserve more than what your given? You seem to appreciate whatever your given and will settle for that with no complaints,
    look at the UFC 121 card

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UFC_121

    Do you not feel as though they could maybe pass a few of the those over??? Isnt there a Fan Expo as well?
    Thats all im saying

    EDIT: And I hate this crap that fighters dont want to travel over to the UK, its only a few hours on a flight


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,381 ✭✭✭fakearms123


    The only good thing I see about this card is watching John Hathaway, Akiyama and seeing what this guy Paul Sass is all about


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,460 ✭✭✭✭DrPhilG

    I've done nothing but complain! Here, on the Fight Club forums, everywhere. I even signed a petition moaning about it!

    I might think my wage packet is a bit stingy, doesn't mean I'm going to turn it away when I get it!

    We can cry all we want, I'm still going to go to the event. I went over to UFC 95 which had an incredibly poor card and it was one of the best events of the year, and still stands as the second best event of the 8 I've attended.

    I dont see any reason why it wouldnt happen, watched the UF heavyweights the other night and he really did come off as a huge bully and very average fighter....

    "hit me roy".......Bang! quality stuff.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,398 ✭✭✭ormondprop


    GAA and rugby tickets cost similar money and i'd much prefer to see this than see ireland play italy in the 6 nations, also helps that my sister lives in london halfway between the o2 and Earls Court:D
    And I hate this crap that fighters dont want to travel over to the UK, its only a few hours on a flight

    i wouldn't blame them for not travelling, it really f**ks you up mentally, for some of our matches we have to travel for a few hours on a bus the day before or morning of a match and it just unsettles you, your always better at home, and anyway they will always have the big fights in america.
    I'm not saying that this is a good card but feck it i'm still happy to go to it


  • Registered Users Posts: 206 ✭✭Wexler12


    Dana was supposed to make an announcement about the London fan expo live on ufc.com today at 2 or 3. Anyone hear anything?
