    Is there no BT box office option - there was with Sky for the Joshua fight last weekend.

    Just says 'rounds' not 'rounds and rounds'. It's good to see some training though this time they've been very quiet.

    Nope. To be fair, if you do have Sky then you can subscribe to Eir Sports, you can cancel after two months. It'll cost you under €50 and you get a decent amount of sport with that, not to mention next month's PPV. Not a bad deal really.

    Looks like he is holding his knee in that picture of him and Dani's. Hes also grimacing in pain. Leg is definitely broke.

    kavanagh and mcgregor also said conor would knock mayweather out:rolleyes:
    I wouldn't believe everything somebody says when promoting a fight worth maybe half a billion in revenue.
    What happens if there is another Aldo style knockout, by either man?? Where does that put either of them regarding their future in UFC??

    I know if McGregor sparks Khabib it’ll probably put him in the conversation as in if the best ever, but who does he go on to face? Is there any competition for him at the moment without going up weight??

    Or what if Khabib sparks McGregor? 27 and 0 with a definitive ko against one of, if not the, UFCs biggest star? Where does he go from there? Does it cement his status as a great? Or does he need to fight more ranked opponents??
    :eek:

    If he sparks Khabib easily in the first, he goes straight to P4P #1 and among the best to ever do it imo. I'm just surprised to hear you agree. ;)
    I also think Khabib needs a few more big wins to reach that status. Considering he hasn't actually beat any champions or former champions, yet.

    As for who the winner fights, Tony is still standing, kicking steel poles, waiting for his shot. And the winner of Dustin v Nate is in obvious contention.

    People are talking about the UFC wanting Conor for 165. I'm not sure. If anything. I feel they would rather see him win here and stay at 155 fighting whoever. It's in Conor interest to challenge himself. Move up etc. Which takes time. It's in the UFC interest to get a quick turnaround.

    I thought they were wrestling shoes. With Sergei standing by. But on closer look I think they are boxing boots. Although, some people use the same for both.
    Could be protecting an injury, routine from MayMac, or slippy mats,etc

    When you see who's involved in making them it's not surprising. Leeches with zero talent, skills or initiative.

    That may apply to some of them but Colin Byrne seems like a decent bloke owns his own MMA academy in Portugal, seems to have achieved something under his own steam...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 226 ✭✭PLOPS


    The amount of hangers on in those videos.

    Does anyone notice how he seems to have certain friends/ hangers on around for a period of time, then he just replaces them.
    Tom Egan was always by his side up till TUF....gone
    those two Dunphy brothers.....Haven't seen them 2 in a while
    Gerry Byrne was all over the Mayweather camp carrying the bucket like a champ....Gone
    Charlie "face plant" Ward was with him all the time, even held his hand when he went to Court...Gone
    Those 2 Drug dealer Murray brothers....Gone
    Ido Portal....Gone

    Agreed. Colin runs this vlog and is very good at what he does (usually).

    In other news, Khabib still sparing heavy?? Noticeable marking around his right eye here.

    I don't get why Ido Portal gets such a bad rep. He was helping with light movement and mobility which is an essential part of training. I was actually fascinated by it
