Could be playing some ball with the GAA to get a better deal.

NFC conference championship is on at 3pm and the AFC conference championship with the hometown team New England Patriots is on at 6:40pm. The game will take 3 to 3 and half hours if it goes to overtime possibly 4 hours so a lot of people will be entering the TD Garden late on Sunday night.

Risky strategy for the UFC because if there is overtime in the AFC game people may miss the majority of the Main Card.

Also, Monday is Martin Luther King day, so a lot of people in the US have the Monday off, myself included.

The main card starts quite late. Runs 10pm-12am, maybe later
If the AFC game runs 4 hours, it'll run over the Parke fight only imo

The amount of times the "Why is this on a Sunday" question has been answered on this forum is far too much

Saipanne · 13-01-2015 1:08am

Has anyone been to a fight in Vegas? What was your total budget?

Too many blows to the head.

Why issues? Would he not be trying to look for the possibility of a fight and a potential pay day?

MagicIRL · 13-01-2015 1:53pm

Sanchez would get absolutely murdered by McGregor. That counter left would knock him in to last week.

Well i think the fact he put a knife through the picture of McGregor would lead people to believe he has issues.....

As if Conor wouldn't do the same thing.

Sanchez is done, this a cheap stunt in an attempt to keep himself relevant .

Yep, its this. Aired on fox last night

Spoke well on Sports Centre on ESPN.
Talked landing a certain shot several times vs Siver in a 2 min time frame. His hopes to fight Aldo in Croker. Bar the end where he mixed his history by saying blood was shed vs the English on croke park in 1916. Bloody Sunday 1920 he meant. That was it really. 2 min interview...

Well they aren't in the same division. Calling out a guy in a lighter weight class is a bit pathetic imo. He hasn't a hope of making 145, and if McGregor was to move up, I'd expect Diego to be smashed over 3 rounds, he's far too slow.

...then there's the fact seeing his picture made him reach for the knife. I've a feeling Diego is bipolar tbh.

This is one of the main reasons I don't like Conor. His public persona and all the talking he does he comes across as trying to hard to be something he's not. If you don't know stuff don't talk about it

Anybody seen this yet http://www.newstalk.com/Fine-Gael-Senator-seeks-to-ban-vile-UFC-from-coming-to-Dublin , somebody who obviously has no understanding of the sport.
