Dunno if the ronnie is a good look for Bektic.

Looks like Anthony Kiedis is getting into the octagon :pac:

Necro

Is there anything better than watching two monsters swing for the fences.

Really enjoyed that.

Amazingfun

It was on BT, lol, I heard it!

Paully D

I heard it on Fight Pass. :pac:

mailburner

great fight

Axwell

Lamas was unlucky there not to sink one of those guillotines in for the finish.

Amazingfun

Ah dammit, sorry for Lamas, he nearly had it

martyos121

Screw the fighting, just keep Waterson on the screen for the next five hours.

The White Feather

Another hometown loss in that one. Doesn't seem good for Punk!!

The White Feather

This has to be the first womens fight that I have enjoyed in a while

Axwell

Close with the finish there!

martyos121

I’d give that round to Gadelha despite the big shot from Esparza. She did nothing to capitalise on it.

Great scrap between the Claudia's.
*edit*

I just remembered her name is Carla, not Claudia

No more cans for me

Don't worry Jon Anik made the same mistake within rounds..

He did say that didn't he? Shows what an impressionable little bollix I am

mailburner

gadelha not the fighter she used to be, carla has improved but you have to think a year back gadelha would have eaten carla for breakfast

martyos121

1 clear round for each of them. It’s all going to come down to the first. Claudia 29-28 for me.

He also called one of Esparza's head kicks a leg kick.

Maybe no more cans for Jon? :pac:

mailburner

dont think they can give this one to carla

mangobob

Thats a terrible decision. Clear win for Carla.

dulux99

Correct decision in the fight and correct decision for my accumulator. Very entertaining fight. Great card in general so far

martyos121

Claudia thinks she’s getting the FOTN bonus? Yeah that shot in the first definitely concussed her. :pac:

Axwell

Judges got it right imo, first round Claudia scraped it and then 1 round each.

Nonsense. First round was very close, Claudia dominated round 2 and Carla dominated Rd 3. Very fair decision

The White Feather

Was hoping it might go Carlas way but it was close

Thought it was an obvious 29-28 to Claudia myself. First round was tough to call but overall Claudia got the better of her and was close to submitting her towards the end of the round. 2nd clearly Claudia, 3rd clearly Esparza.

Useful.Idiot

Yup Carla got the 3rd, Claudia the other two. I don't think Claudia has gotten any worse, but she still loses her pop after two rounds like always.

So close!

mailburner

chickened out of backing carla at 4/1, only right decision ive made all night

dulux99

Hope Blades gets battered for that abomination of a walkout song. Wtf was that

ricero

Lets go Reem !

And Drake walking out with him too, he must be disgusted by that.

Axwell

Hoping for a Blaydes win here

dulux99

Sad state of affairs when these are the 2nd and 4th ranked guys in the world.

dulux99

Blades had him badly rocked on the fight and decided to snooze it out and take him down. I don't think I'm a Curtis Blades fan

Hes a very effective fighter but too conservative and cautious for my liking.

well i think i spoke too soon

dulux99

He turned it on at the end, fair play.

martyos121

That was some finish. Overeem’s face went from pretty to disfigured in the space of a second.

dulux99

Poor from the ref there I reckon

mangobob

Wow.

KingJamsie

Shocking stoppage

Axwell

Those elbows were nasty! Great win for Blaydes

Should have stopped it 2-3 before he did

cashcow

is it just me or does anyone else get the feeling Joe doesn't like the Reem at all..what was the point of that one question interview.

He was being rushed for time clearly.
