    Ross is a winner no matter what - his missus

    Laprise will be crippled by the end of this fight if he keeps eating those inside leg kicks.

    Perason is very polished in this fight. Love the way he's disguising that leg kick by faking a jab. Beautiful stand up.

    Great fight, have Pearson edging it myself if it stays like this but would imagine it'll be a split.

    As soon as I say that he starts getting tagged, really enjoyable fight.

    Havnt a clue who won that now.

    Good fight I think Pearsons aggressiveness might nick it for him.

    Gamebred spot on I'd day his aggressiveness got it, mad scoring though 30-27 is outrageous

    Some strange scores there. All 3 judges scoring 3 rounds clearly for both fighters? Odd.

    As a McGregor bandwagoner as were called. I'm enjoying these fights so far and I'm learning. Pearson's constant pressure won that one for him imo.

    Yep, but there's very few draws every. It was nice to see a 10-10 though from one judge.

    No bandwagoners around here pal. You've simply discovered a great sport. Enjoy.

    Cheers. Ah I was getting interested in the sport when I was a young fella in the Chuck Liddell days but kinda drifted away from it. McGregor drew me back in and I'm hooked ever since.

    The McGregor Bandwagoners only come along fight week asking what time hes fighting then post garbage for 3 days after the fight with their expert analysis and then disappear till his next fight.

    10-9 Andrade. Takedown the difference. Neither fighter looks great on their feet.

    Just an aside to the fights. Couple of the new lads watching the fights tonight, you don't need to justify how long you've been watching MMA for.

    Nobody cares. Or at least they shouldn't care.

    ----

    Back to the fights... Is that Rin Nakai who Miesha Tate fought a couple years ago? I was wondering where the hell she ended up.

    That's her, she hasn't fought since. Not sure why though.

    Yep, I do. It stood out to me when searching through the odds. You never know what you're going to get from Ross but I'd certainly have him as the favourite here. Most analysts seem to fancy Pearson here too. I'll be having a small punt.

    Good man Ross. :cool:

    If I'm honest I had Laprise up 29-28 but after losing that decision to Sanchez a few years ago (the worst decision of all time in the UFC IMO) I'd never begrudge him getting the nod in a close one.

    I pick the Asian in the fantasy picks, usually I watch the weigh ins while I'm ding this picks, didn't this time. Smith is terrible but I didn't realise there was that much of a size difference.

    I stand corrected. Nikai really holding her own. Good 2nd round. 19-19

    Smith never fails, terrible fighter. If Nakai gets it to the ground she could nick it.

    Turned into a really interesting fight all in all. I have Nakai winning 29-28 but a pretty close third round.
