    This only dawned on me the other day and I was so feckin happy when I realised. Remember a few years ago they pushed back all PPV's to a 2am (our time) start time for about 4/5 months? That was great

    Has anyone else noticed that the online community seems to have taken a massive turn against JJ in recent weeks?

    Seen loads of people saying she has become too cocky/a bully recently. I think she's just been the same as always, what do ye think? Maybe it's just because she's fighting an American this time?

    Always just after the weighins because of the way she carries on.

    Her opponents always let her away with sticking her fist in their face.

    Yea was all over FB yesterday but anyone who has followed her knows that's exactly how she always has acted in face offs etc

    Love me some JJ. To people who aren't her rivals she always seems nice to them but if you're her rival she has no time for you as she should.

    She’s one of the uncoolest human beings alive, such a cheesy awkward person! But there’s something admirable about her strange ways, and she’s a heck of a fighter. Hope Rose scares her, but can’t see beyond an easy win for JJ in the later rounds. Her stamina is incredible.

    That would be a reason I'd dislike her :pac: She's also likely to have it in restaurants, on planes etc

    So? It's her service dog. The dog goes everywhere with her.

    I don't know about yourself but I like dogs but just not other people's dogs (or my own) sitting beside me on a cramped plane or in a restaurant where I'm eating food.

    I couldn't do it myself. I'd find it being just a tad intrusive on the other people.

    The championship fights could make for a long slog tomorrow night. I'm predicting decision wins for Bisping, Dillashaw and Joanna, but either way I think decisions are likely in all three of those fights.

    You must have missed it, Clocks go back there buddy! Main card 2am, Duffy headlining Prelims before that around 1:30, first title fight should be a few after 3 :)

    Point still stands though. I agree with Paully wouldn't be surprised with the 3 fights going 5 rounds.

    Sounds like a you problem to be honest.

    My last long haul I was sat beside a service dog on a 22 hour flight and it was infinitely more enjoyable than being sat next to a drunk mess for the return leg. The service dog sat in his seat and only got up once every few hours when his owner needed the loo or decided to stretch his legs. Service dogs tend to be extremely well trained and won't engage with people besides their owner unless their owner tells them to.

    The lab who was sat beside me didn't even budge until I asked the women who owned him if I could pet him at which point she said of course and told him to say hello to me so he sat up and moved his head toward me and let me pet him for a while before he went back to sleep.

    The drunk 40 something year old "professional" on the return was an obnoxious mess.

    What's that got to do with how long a fight will drag out?

    Agree with Paully, think we're looking at decisions in all three title fights and potentially the other two main card ones too.

    Ep 6 of Embedded, Rose & Mishka rolling :)

    Also, the bit with GSP wrapped in towels enjoying listening to himself slag Bisping is just gas.

    he got a massive pop in the garden anyways...went all the yay up into the back and round and back down in the theater, seems like a sound dude.

    Ngannou is also massive.

    Good bit of support around for duffy as well.
