    Ah FFS, I'm planning on going to Gdansk for the UFC card but would love to catch this too. It has been 2 or 3 times now that an MMA event over here has clashed with a UFC card. :(

    Have booked flights over already for gdansk really looking forward to it. Hopefully a decent card.

    €100 for flights, yeah?

    I'm 90% sure I'll be going. It seems like a cracking place for a weekend away, very cheap too. The Hilton and Radisson Blu are both 5 star and only about €50 per night per person.

    The only issue I was seeing was that the arena is about 30 minutes away from the city centre and the airport the same distance from the city centre with public transport not being great? I could be massively off on that mind, I just looked briefly.

    We booked from the friday 5am flight home sunday,staying in the Qbus i think its called, looks fairly nice and free boat to the city centre with the hotel. It was 140 all in. Theres 4 of us so it shouldnt cost to much hopefully to get around!

    Any suggestions who might get on the card? Id imagine with the size of the city it shouldnt be hard to bump into a few fighters.

    Highly doubt the UFC would pay them their current Show/Win bonus when they get away with paying the TUF fighters peanuts.

    TUF idea is silly if you're in the UFC. No training camp, none of your team and having to live in a house with 15 other people. Should have got 16 fighters interested and did a tournament on FightPass.

    I think Karolina may be a good shout for the main. Not currently booked, home country, a relatively decent draw. Maybe her vs Calvillo would make sense but I don't know if Calvillo will want a bit of a break after 3 fights in quick succession?

    I'm sure we'll get the likes of Held (zzzzz), Błachowicz and Grabowski (zzzzz) on it too.

    Anyone paying for that in my opinion needs to save their money and spend it on a visit to their gp FOR SURE.

    Ah I think he's all right.

    He does speak some shite some of the time but he's also happy to give his honest opinion on things whether the UFC like it or not (DJ not fighting TJ, Reebok etc.) and seems like a sound enough guy too.

    Podcast was good at the start but it's gone up it's own arse a bit these days.

    Dropping knowledge with Bryan Callan....so much he says is just wrong

    I see the MMA journalists have set up an association
    MMAJA‏
    @TheMMAJA

    Tonight in Anaheim, the MMAJA held its 1st official meeting. Some attended in person, while others via phone. We look forward to many more

    Did Ariel found this or is he front and centre due to being the most famous ?

    Also what is the name of the fella in the dallas cowboys t-shirt ? I do enjoy his questions at press conferances
