    In fairness the 2nd round was very marginal! 1st and 3rd were hers though

    Yeah you're probably right actually in fairness. I suppose because all three rounds were so close its easy to feel like Jojo was hard done by with 2 x 30-27's.

    I really don't like this fight at all for Gunni on so many levels. Very little upside if when he wins and it'd be a huge setback if he loses...

    Come on gunni. One of my favourite fighters.

    I know Ponzinibbio mostly gets finishes with his right hand but I can see that left hand finding a home the way Gunni moves in and out.

    I know, the 3 Scots on the main card all losing. It's typical Scottish sport though, the poor wee crayturs.

    Had it 29-28 myself for Calvillo but she scraped it. Kinda disappointed in her to be honest, she had all the tools to win that fight on the ground but had no urgency to bring the fight there.

    Not sure I'd back her again, she was in a close fight and showed lack of urgency to put a stamp on it.

    One of the few fighters that stresses me out watching him fight. Lets go Gunni!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,523 ✭✭✭kwestfan08


    Gunni looks a straight up killer with the shaved head and beard.

    Gunni shoulda surprised everyone with AC/DC and a Frankie style sprint to the octagon

    Gunni's looking a lot leaner these days I think.

    she's going nowhere in that division

    A heartbreaker of a night, dammit to hell.

    Smashed! Massive loss for poor Gunni.

    ****ing hell. Poor Gunnar. Laser jab down the middle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,308 ✭✭✭✭.ak


    Gunni was looking good too, looked very smooth and was picking his shots nicely. Just got caught with an awkward one and never recovered. Some power in those hands!

    Gunnar should have held out for a higher ranking fighter.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,590 ✭✭✭CurryFlavoured


    ****...

    Gunnar's striking defence never convinced me though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 735 ✭✭✭Django99


    I blame Wonder for jinxing it!

    Serious finish though, didn't give him a second to recover.

    Gunni will be back.

    It was the initial right that hurt him. Was over from that point on.

    GTFO.


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


    I thought ponzi was dangerous in striking but I thought gunni would take him down early and get the sub

    Seemed like bad tactics. Gunnis strength is on the ground so get it there quickly rather than trying to trade

    The ref is lucky gunni didn't choke him out

    Give it an hour and JK will tweet Win or Learn guys and that'll fix it.

    Absolutely sickened. Looking good an all but got caught and then the straight down the middle, lights out. I just know he can give everyone in the top 10 problems (even Maia, given another chance).

    Also why in the Jaysus do people vote on the poll after the result.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,308 ✭✭✭✭.ak


    Poor night for SBG. :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,593 ✭✭✭Wheeliebin30


    Mcgregor really is the only one that's over gonna do anything of importance in the ufc:(

    Seems like we will never see him fight again at this rate.

    Appreciate it while we have it cause it ain't happening ever again.

    Relax Ar-tem is on his way for featherweight Gold.

    The whole set-up with Gunni is a strange one. John was saying he's been coaching him via phone, basically he sent over Queally to spar, and was reviewing his sparring footage and giving him advice over the phone.

    After building a brand spanking new gym at Mjolnir, I can't see Gunni doing future camps in Dublin and I can't see John spending 10 weeks of camp in Iceland.

    You'd have to question if it's possible to coach someone over the phone.

    Nightmare night for the lads, both of them KO'd stiff.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 712 ✭✭✭Mean Laqueefa


    A great day of sport though, a full ufc event over before 11pm our time.
    Seery goes out a legend as rightly so.

    Gunni loss but will be back
    Felder doing it for his da

    In the tennis Roger staying classy

    ANd the dubs smashing kiildare

    Shame it all seems over so quick

    One option for Gunni (if he can be convinced) is to move down to LW.

    He won't even look big at LW. 72" reach and walks around at 172lbs he's basically a LW fighting at WW.
