    aldo only wanted a 3 round fight against moicano. i thought that was strange. surly a 5 round main event is worth more to him?

    Ariel made a nice song paying tribute to 2018. Apologies to your ears in advance.

    Artem v Tukhugov in the works for the Russian card in April. If it happens it will be Artem's first ever pro fight in Russia.
    Ariel says Derrick Lewis v Overeem is in the works too.

    Ahaha. "He will never fight in the UFC again" said dana. The man would tell lies when the truth would suffice.

    Jimmy Smith is gone from the UFC, they haven't renewed his contract. I liked him when he wasn't commentating with Rogan but that is true of most of them really.

    That's a bit mad only keeping him for the year, in saying that Felder coming through as a great commentator along with he usual there not short in that department.

    Nobody will ever work as perfectly as the Rogan and Goldie combo, that was peak UFC in more ways than one.

    The most knowledgable guys aren’t always the best commentators.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,415 ✭✭✭EagererBeaver


    Did Smith ever even work a PPV?

    He done 220 which was his first event, not sure if he did anymore ppvs though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,795 ✭✭✭dulux99


    Strange. Be interested to hear if more details emerge as to why he didn't get kept on. Probably wronged Dana in some capacity


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,787 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Yeah lousy on him, I remember when he first announced he landed the job, he was so happy. The way WME are going, wouldn't be surprised to see them hire some celebrity to take over.

    If they ever did get a celebrity in that'd be when. I'd stop watching to be honest.

    WME are bringing to the level of WWE.

    With the rise of One in Asia, hopefully we will see them get rid of the theatrics and bullshît to get back to what made the UFC a 4 billion dollar company in the first place, best fights best and leave the drama at the door.

    Smith is a fantastic colour commentator and had a deep understanding of MMA and bjj having competed in MMA and gained a bjj black belt.
    Letting him go is diocy.

    If One FC are smart they'll snap him up ahead of their US network debut this year.

    Not sure where else to post this, but Kanye West has confirmed he's going on Joe Rogan's podcast. Great news. I've always wondered what Kanyes thoughts on elk meat were.

    Someone on reddit has spotted that the womens FW rankings have been removed completely from the ufc website.

    Fly or feather? Wouldn't be arsed with either of them going tbh.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,128 ✭✭✭dashoonage


    Feather...it never had full rankings , just had cyborg listed as champ. But its gone completely now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,735 ✭✭✭ASOT


    I'd say that division is gone now, the same way men's flyweight will will be gone on the 20th.

    WME-IMG

    I'm guessing you may well be one of those lads on reddit who gravitate to Rogan related material to post 'Pull that up Jamie' in the comments section
