    Don't see a thread up, hope PaullyD's letterbox isn't stuffed full of post.

    I've next to no interest in the main event.

    Main card not setting the world alight except for Poirier, will prob stay up for that but could be beddy byes straight after.

    Early prelim starts at midnight, and funnily enough not noon as shown on the ufc website above.

    edit: The Glenn fight is moved from early prelims to prelims to replace the McCall fight, so card starts at 00:30am GMT now. Image updated.

    Yeah where is Paully?

    This card doesn't interest me at all unfortunately


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 945 ✭✭✭red ears


    It's quite a weak card, Dustin is the fight I'd like to see. I'd be interested in seeing how holly gets on too but no way am i staying up for it. Now 209 is a different matter completely. I'm really looking forward to that.

    Theres report McCall is out of his fight tonight, incredible if true.

    No way is he unlucky again, something is going on there.

    His body must not be able for weight cut

    I know he had opponent pull outs but this and Belfast dont seem right, last time there was no excuse or apology just rumoured food poisnon from fish or something people seen him eating at media day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,281 ✭✭✭✭mdwexford


    I like this card.

    Lot of fighters I'm looking forward to seeing.

    Poirier Miller should be a war.

    McCall missing means its a 10 fight card earlier night hopefully.

    My gut would say no, I reckon it will probably be just more filler in the prelims?

    PPV start time of 3am is probably set in stone.

    Creepy should maybe move to 135, maybe the cut to 125 is a bit much for him or just retire from fighting and concentrate on his weed farms.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,513 ✭✭✭tinpib


    The Glenn fight is moved from early prelims to replace McCall fight. Card now starts at 00:30am.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    Imagine being stateside and paying 60 dollars for this card.

    Id imagine very very very few people will be paying for it this haha. Its a good card, very solid, would make a top notch fight night, but it shouldn't be a PPV.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Anyone think there is a chance Miller can KO Poirier? I don't see why the odds are so crazy on that :/

    If I was paying 60 bucks a pop I wouldn't be watching many cards.

    Dustin is too young and athletic for the old boy can see him stopping miller with strikes standing, DP bounces back expect him to go on a run now.

    You think Silva can out matrix brunsons punches?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    If Brunson starts throwing punches like he did a few months ago against Whittaker he's getting ko'd stiff, he might try wrestle though Im going Silva ko via flying knee.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,513 ✭✭✭tinpib


    First PPV without Goldie.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,893 ✭✭✭✭callaway92


    It has 150 000 PPV buys written all over it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,513 ✭✭✭tinpib


    Seems like a half decent crowd for the first early prelim too. Makes a nice change.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    I like Cormier and Rogan


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    Not liking the 3 man team, dc is doing too much talking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,513 ✭✭✭tinpib


    Carneiro clocked his head off the camera according to the lads, didn't notice it myself, but that's a huge **** up by the cameraman.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Anyone think Lentz has a chance here?

    Don't know whether to call it quits now or stay up. Nothing on the card really getting me wet except maybe silva


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Wasn't bad for a flyweight fight.


    Brown to win here


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Subcomandante Marcos


    I'd give that round to Belal.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    I'd give that round to Belal.

    Id have him two up so far


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Subcomandante Marcos


    2 - zip to Muhammad.


    Brown needs a KO to win.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Subcomandante Marcos


    Muhammad looks absolutely wrecked getting off his stool.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Subcomandante Marcos


    Brown throwing his hands up like he's going to convince anyone he didn't just get the ****e kicked out of him.

    30-27 Muhammad. Good fight!

    What was the judges score? my stream cut out early


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,689 ✭✭✭bur


    Main card.

    Finally.

    Looking forward to the fights ahead though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,739 ✭✭✭ASOT


    What was the judges score? my stream cut out early

    30-27 x 2 & 29-28 Belal. Went exactly how i taught it would, compleatly dislike brown also.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    11/1 for poirier to lose via KO, I know he is most likely to win but as Conor said "gust of wind and he is doing the chicken dance". 11/1 is value

    Porier with hair is weird.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Subcomandante Marcos


    "me and Jim both walk forward, throw big shots and try to finish our opponents".

    Lies Dustin, you were content to hug Duffy to death because you knew he'd puck the ears off you on the feet.

    Miller has only won by KO in 14% of his fights. Poirier has lost by knockout once in 25 fights.

    Yeah, looks like an entirely different person. I wonder is it to market him to the ladies a bit more :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,569 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    Hope and think Poirer wins this one.

    Always liked Poirier, even though he blocked me on twitter as I said he would get beaten by McGregor! Didn't insult him just stated my opinion and I was proven right!

    Outrageous I tells ya! :pac:

    Conor and Johnson beat him by KO


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,569 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    When will Poirer have Cletus accompany him on his walkout?!! :D
    McGregor said he must know him!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Subcomandante Marcos


    Did Dustin really just get described as a "thugjitsu" fighter?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,569 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    I'd love to see another Poirier Darce
