Jesus now we have to listen to months more of Jimmy chatting nonsense because he beat a binman.

Southdubin6

Myles was brilliant. James Gallagher still a little ****e bag after fighting a nobody. Richie looked great. Kiefer great as usual. All In all , I enjoyed the night.

The ask the established gyms if they have low level lads who'd fancy a few quid and get sent lads who train part time.

True story.

Like a pro getting that sky sports plug in and thugging at the heart strings, definitely going to be getting an interview on sky sports news tomorrow.

In fairness he’s unlikeable but he definitely has something about his fight game at 22.

Just nowhere near as much as he thinks he does.

Personality wise he appears to be a knock off McGregor. But not just that, but his mannerisms, stance and way of talking. It’s the type of character I’d create in a UFC PlayStation game for the craic. But he’s a real bloke :o

Of course I'd not deny him that but his character is absolutely toxic. If he toned it down I'd probably like him

sc86

if he was himself i dont think anybody would have issue , and would give him credit
he just tries so hard to be somebody hes not

Similar tattoos on chest and forearm as McGregor. Grown a beard. The laugh. Be your own man ffs. It's ok to admire what McGregor has achieved without being his clone

Live Fight updates of an Irish card, names like myles price, joey Breslin, Kieran Davern, Conor McGregor and sbg being slated left right and centre. It’s like reading a thread from 2012. Brings me back to the good aul days. Thanks lads

God no. Genuinely took me back to the old days. Thanks for the updates. I’d like to see more of it. All that was missing was Chris fields and Owen roddy

back then all irish mma threads were not just about conor mcgregor and his social antics or whiskey

Don't think anyone slated Joey or Kieran. In fact the two people who mentioned they said they were two of the best bjj players in SBG.
Keiran is probably the best grappler in Ireland and Joey is an absolute freak in the Gi. But sure carry on with your rant.

Was a bit confused about that myself. They were being praised rather than slated..

Wtf are you on about? I know both guys. I wasn’t slating them, at all. I was referring more to it being like 2012. They were fairly common names on the scene back then. And kieran wasn’t sbg In 2012.
And sbg always got slack for being dickheads. But any names I mentioned were sound guys.

Out of the MMA guys, maybe.
But overall he's probably not even top 5.

Yea I think ive put my point across Arseways. My apologies. Back in the day, sbg got slack, and still do.
My main point though was about reading tonight’s live updates, and names like davern, price, Breslin were common names on the MMA scene in 2012. It was like reading a thread from back then.

The "and" made it read like slated applies to Joey, Kieran etc

Full stop between Kieran and Conors names probably would have avoided the confusion, if you mean he was getting stick as well, otherwise full stop after his name
With you now though.

All in all was a good night for Irish MMA alot better then I thought I'd be. Even if it was just to see The showstoppers face pre decision.

Bring on September.

Don't mind Marcos, if he sees anything that even comes close to being complimentary towards SBG he loses his sh1te.

Great night. I don't know much about the sbg lads opponents so can't comment on the Calibre some didn't offer much though. McGregor needs a better main sparring partner, queally is absolutely rubbish. Can't wrestle, strike, has zero ground game, a really really average fighter.

I was shocked at some saying he was robbed. Guy got absolutely schooled and he said as much himself. Myles didn't take a step back all night keep on front foot and being the aggressor.

Thanks for the updates last night South, I couldn't watch it live and found it hard to get updates online.

Great to see Royce so happy.

No probs Zero. I knew a few had issues with the stream so just wanted folk to know results. I insulted this card and I was wrong I was impressed. Kiefer crosbie although a friend so I'm a little biased is getting better and better. He doesn't hold up- Ireland's rampage Jackson for that pressure he applies.

Whelo79

I think Keifer is leaps and bounds ahead of every other fighter in the country at the moment. His game looks to have everything and he looks comfortable and composed wherever the fight goes. Really looking forward to seeing him back in action again, I hope he gets over onto an American card before the end of the year.

That was a great night last night, delighted to see such a strong turnout with the arena close to capacity and in great voice. Hopefully the TV audience was decent too. Onwards and upwards for Irish and European MMA hopefully.

iebamm2580

Have to admit that crosbie was impressive, i dont know near what most guys here do about mma as i have never done it, but he looked legit very good, impressive hand speed.

Go and watch his fight on BAMMA from last year in Dublin if you haven't already seen it. Absolute cracker.

dulux99

The only thing I didn't like about crosbie was his post fight interview. It would have been a great chance to call out one of the more reputable 170lb Bellator fighters but he goes calling for a 165lb title shot. He's never going to have enough pull to get that one over the line. For instance if he called out Van Der Ford (aka Mr PVZ) then I could easily imagine him getting that fight and it'd be pretty high profile.

I'd like him to start pushing for American cards. Seems he's happy to be fighting in the N.I.C. he is so talented he could start asking questions.

Could they have gotten a bigger can for Gallagher?
That was laughable.
So was paying Big John and Chael to hype him up as the new McGregor.
They seemed to have even gotten James to grow a beard and get a few Conor mannerisms as well.
There was a few entertaining fights but the whole James Gallagher thing is a farce and an embarrassment to the whole institution of Bellator.

Steven Graham's first bellator fight he's on a main card says it all really.

Booking prospects against cans is the whole institution of Belator.

TerrorFirmer

That was an incredibly embarrassing main card even by Bellator standards. The only properly matched fight was Queally and Price. Ward's knockout was decent, Kiefer Crosbie looked good, though.

The guy Gallagher fought was the biggest bum of them all. Did anyone see Gallagher's post-fight bit where he was wearing the McGregor shades? It's painful at that stage, I've never seen a man so desperately want to be another man.

Some of the top comments on the video

When you order a Conor Mcgregor from Alibaba

I thought Kevin Lee was cringe but this wannabe McGregor is reaching new galaxies.

It's weird seeing a man trying to be another man.

This dude probably watches so many Conor videos he doesn't even realize he's copying him it's just engrained into his brain at this point.

You wonder about his...brain. Is he alright

Esse85

I'm surprised Gallagher didn't do the Vince McMahon walk.
He nearly lost his life when security spoke to his mother inside the ring. Really unlikeable, can't wait to see him get a hiding.
