    I'm interested in doing the. Any idea if the full card is being repeated on BT on Sunday? As there's no way I'll be staying up until 5am to watch it.

    Usually any time between 9 and 11 in a sunday night

    I doubt they could afford Mike Tyson.

    Mike wouldnt do it anyway. If he does come back itll be for a glorified light sparing exhibition.

    The one thing that's bugging me is that the winner of Tony Vs Justin gets Khabib. Ferguson already earned that and it was supposed to happen. He should still be first up for a title fight regardless of the result of this fight.

    It's a tough one but personally I don't agree. If you beat 'the next in line' then you become 'the next in line' in my opinion.

    Tony knows the risks associated with taking this fight and is happy to plough on. Fair play to him. Many others (as Tyrone Woodly done) would sit it out waiting for the champ.

    The next in line thing happens before you have a title fight to and it's a good system but that's not the case here.
    Gaethje is below McGregor and Poirier in the rankings and has lost to Dustin. No way he should be getting a title shot before one of those.

    Did anyone else like me pause their sky/BT subs a month ago? I still get all the stations even with the sub paused. I hope they don't cop on tomorrow night that there is an actual sporting event taking place..

    Huh?
    You think if Ferguson loses to Justin.
    He should still fight Khabib ahead of Justin (the interim champ).
    Surely you know that’s ridiculous.

    Poirier got his shot and lost.

    Normally I would agree with you but this is different. He earned the right, obviously Khabib has gone missing again. He deserves his title shot more than anybody. Even if Gaethje beats he is in my opinion less deserving of a title shot.
    I don't think he'll beat him anyways, Gaethje is the new Cowboy in my book, very good but just below the top table.

    He earned the right. Absolutely.
    And he had the option to sit and wait for the fight. Or get back in there, get paid, and fight for an interim. It’s one or the other. He can’t put it in the line and risk it at the same time.

    I agree that Tony deserves it more than anyone right now, he is the clear No1. But by the same logic, if Justin beats him now, that’s bigger than other win in the division, including Tony.

    Yes I paused it too. We still get them but just not paying as there is no live sport.

    I suppose they could start charging now but hopefully they just meant that people will pay when the football is back on. Maybe its good that MMA isnt the main thing! They should be asleep when UFC is on so we hope its not noticed!
