Lee hid that from everyone so he could still fight. If he said publicly he had it the UFC would have had no choice but to remove him from the card.

Didnt see the weigh in but was it not noticeable when he was topless? it looked massive on fight night surely blood work would confirm it too.

I just looked at it now, there is a mark on his chest. It's smaller than it was in the fight. I didn't even know that was something that happened with a staph infection. As for the blood work according to the commission he passed all his medical work. It was Lee himself who said he hid it.

It was flat enough at weigh-in. A bit blotchy. I'd be surprised if bloodwork checked for random infections like staph though.
A remember after one of Lee's fights, there was some speculation about marks on his abdomen.

Jones too in the past actually.

Lee was on Chael's podcast, said he didn't tell anybody about the staph infection. He had it for the week before the fight, but it only really flared up after the weight cut

Should add more fuel to the rivalry between McKee and Gallagher.

What "rivalry" ffs. I hate the fact a couple of lads, particularly young and inexperienced lads firing a few tweets at each other gets called a "rivalry"

I presume Gallagher will still be cageside though and there will be some sort of **** show on the mic between the two of them.

They are both undefeated, hyped and want to be the best. Of course there are very few actual rivalries in mma or combat sport in general.

Holy bejaisus that's a fight. Imagine RDA won, went on to beat Woodley and then finally got his fight against Conor.

Lawler's early volume to absolutely smash him.

Outlaw Pete · 13-10-2017 2:45am

Sindead Kavanagh and Emma Bunton added to the Bellator 187 card.

Oh wait, no, it's Baby Slice that's fighting at Bellator. Kimbo's son.

rob316 · 13-10-2017 9:54am

Lawler v RDA, that's a cracker. Can't wait for that

RDA likes early volume too. I hate to use MMAmath but RDA smashed Cerrone twice while some argue Robbie lost his fight against Cerrone.

Robbie likes to take rounds off, whereas RDA can keep quite a high pace for the whole fight. High chances of being a war.

In other news, Aldo Vs Lamas set for UFC on fox 26. Aldos first 3 round right since 2009. Mad!

Autecher · 13-10-2017 7:05pm

So Lawler vs. Dos Anjos, Aldo vs. Lamas & Ponzinibbio vs. Mike Perry all on the same card? That puts most of this year's ppv's to shame!

Zero-Cool · 13-10-2017 7:08pm

Congrats to The LHW champ on getting his brown belt.

Dana posting it ect leads me to believe it was all contrived, Bisping is trying too hard here.

good card, would have preferred Aldo vs Stephens though. We already saw Aldo vs lamas and it wasn't particularly enthralling

Stephens who is 3-5 in his last 8?

Not even close to warranting a fight at that level imo

I agree about their first fight but Lamas really wants another title shot and Aldo will be desperate to prove he still has what it takes so I'm hoping that makes for a great fight.

Is it just me that's noticed that there's been a few people failing tests for clomiphene ?

Hope that GSP beats Bisping. I like Bisping at times but he's an annoying bully in the build up to fights, talks a lot and most of it is just forced drivel.

As far as betting goes, it's tough to call. Nobody knows what GSP will bring to the table now. If I had to put money down it'd be on Bisping because we do know what he'll bring to the table, and he's the underdog (which is a bit surprising). We don't know what older GSP looks like. His big advantage at 170 was his wrestling and his jab, and to an extent his cardio. Bisping is a good defensive wrestler, has great cardio and is taller/longer than most of his previous opponents.
